Long Island Cake Smash I shoot this family very often and I am so grateful they keep coming back for their portraits. Owen’s mama really values the importance of photographs and I just adore her little boys. Owen was now turning 1 and running faster than his sitter session. It was definitely a challenge to...
Westchester Baby Photographer This was my first encounter with Miss Amelia. I knew her family for awhile and worked with her older brother a couple times. Now it was her turn to model in front of my lens. Mama did not want a cake smash or anything food related but instead a simple milestone session...
NYC Cake Smash Session I met little Ella a year prior for her newborn session. Now fast forward a year later and I am back capturing her 1st birthday photoshoot. She looks like she was all smiles but I assure you there were some tears and moments of fleeing. This is why you hire a...
Brooklyn 1st Birthday I always have an assistant for my sessions but for today’s session my assistant was on vacation. So I asked a friend to fill in. This wasn’t her first time on set with me. We actually did a birthday shoot for her fur baby, Talula a couple years ago. I think working...
UWS Cake Smash This was my 2nd time returning the UWS apartment of baby Kate but 3rd time photographing her. I first met her family the year before for her newborn session and then again for their holiday photos back in November. Now it was time to capture Kate for her 1st birthday milestone. She...
Staten Island 1st Birthday I have been photographing this family for a few years now. It was such a joy to have them come visit from Maryland for their daughter, Liana’s 1st birthday shoot. We tried re-creating the bed setup from her brother’s shoot 2 years prior. Liana was an amazing cake smasher. I don’t...
Brooklyn 1st Birthday This was my 4th time working with this wonderful family in Brooklyn. I previously photographed their maternity, newborn and Christmas sessions. I was now returning for Luca’s 1st birthday session. We styled his session in blue and grey which is SUPER popular for boys. Baby Luca really had a blast at his cake smash...
Bergen County Baby Photographer I first met baby Cash at his Upper Saddle River home in Bergen County NJ about two months prior. We did a Motherhood shoot for him and his lovely mama. Now it was his time for a solo debut. We would be celebrating his 1st birthday milestone with a photoshoot and...
Manhattan Cake Smash Every once in awhile you get an extra happy baby and Emmett did not disappoint. It was my second time coming back to his Manhattan apartment. Ironically both times I found street parking. This is something I remember because it is a rarity. I like to say I should play the lotto...
Greenpoint Brooklyn Cake Smash I really do have the best job! I get to work with some amazing people. I have been with this family for 3 years and it really feels so much longer. I get to watch their family grow and give them memories they can cherish forever. They also trust my vision...
