When I first met Benjamin’s parents, they described their little guy as a super smiley baby. On the day of our session, it was clear he wasn’t his usual cheerful self and we decided to call it quits a bit early. His mom told me later that he spiked a high fever shortly after we wrapped up. Even though I knew we captured some lovely pictures of him that morning, I didn’t want mom and dad looking back at the images only to be reminded of how sick Benjamin was that day. So I came back a couple of weeks later for a redo. Sure enough, he proved to have one of the best smiles of any baby I’ve ever photographed with a huge grin in every single picture. Actually the selection of images below are a mix from both the first and second takes, but I don’t think anyone but mom, dad, and me can tell which ones are from the day he wasn’t feeling well.

It was with great excitement and joy that I finally got to spend time again with my dear friend and her adorable 4-month-old baby boy, both of whom I had not seen since he was about a week old. We’d been planning to do a photo session together since before he was born and we wanted to wait until it was warm enough to keep him outside comfortably. I don’t make it home to New York City very often anymore so our opportunities have been few and far between. As luck would have it, the weather didn’t cooperate and we only had about 20 minutes of shooting time. On the other hand we got to spend several hours just hanging out and being together (which was not nearly enough time). Luckily, I’ll have many opportunities in the years to come to make more images of him starting with another session in the next few months when he’s able to sit up on his own. Love you, Faryu!!!

I first photographed Vivienne just about one year ago when she was only a couple weeks old . She still has the same look, but her gorgeous huge brown eyes are brimming with personality now. Happy birthday Vivienne!

I photographed the lovely Nora on a lucky sunny day in April after canceling the day before due to torrential rains. Yet another reminder that the month of April is indeed full of showers. Thank you S Family for a fun session!

After multiple cancellations due to weather over the last few weeks, I was hoping I wouldn’t have to postpone yet another session on Saturday. The clouds looked threatening at times, but finally the appointed hour arrived and all was dry so we were able to proceed with the plan: to take a a stroll around the block with baby Samantha and family for some memorable outdoor pics. Said neighborhood was near Logan Circle, just a few block from where I used to live, with its multicolored brick walls, alleyways, and iron gates, providing a rich and textured backdrop for the images. Thankfully Samantha did not seem the slightest bit bothered by the chill in the air. She was all smiles, happy to be out and about. I was especially excited about working with the W family, not only because they live in my old hood but because their session was a gift from some dear friends. I know there will be other folks out there who will be almost as excited to see these pictures as Samantha’s parents. Enjoy!

What can I say? Is she cute or is she cute? Baby M was so easy going that we managed 3 or 4 outfit changes, lots of smiles and barely any fuss. And at the end, she declared us done by laying down on the couch and promptly falling asleep before I could even pack up my camera bag.

The last time I saw Gabriel, he was probably no more than 4 months old. His mom Sara and I met at the Breast Feeding Center when our sons were infants. Now, more than two years later, it was nice to get reacquainted and also, to meet little sister Sofia. Like many second children that I’ve photographed, she was super mellow and even tolerated some chilly weather so we could get some nice outside images.

Presenting the lovely Lucy with sparkling blue eyes. It was a pleasure to meet her and her parents. Keeping this post short, but sweet since it’s after midnight. Enjoy!

After an unfortunate delay due to the torrential rain a couple of weeks ago, my rescheduled session with sisters Jacqueline and Mady ended up on a beautiful autumn day with just a little chill in the the air (my favorite weather). We were even able to get away with bare feet briefly!

Holiday mini-sessions were quite a whirlwind. It’s always a little thrill to see some of the same kids from previous sessions when, at this stage of their lives, even a few months makes a huge difference in their development. Thankfully the weather cooperated, which is always a big risk with outdoor sessions at this time of year. The one frustrating thing about mini-sessions was limiting my time with each family to only 30 minutes. I wish I could have spent more time with everyone!
