Manhattan Family Photographer | Brooklyn Fun

This weekend I met up with Chloe and Caroline for their yearly portraits. We headed over to Cobble Hill Park in Brooklyn for the start of the shoot which was in full bloom with pretty flowers. After spending time there, we headed back to the house for some shots on the front stoop (there also was a ballerina segment to the shoot, which I may have to blog about at a later date). The girls were adorable and the end result is nothing short of super cute!

Brooklyn Family Photographer | Avery's Brooklyn Bridge Fun

This  morning I headed to Brooklyn for a shoot with Avery and her parents. Avery turned one back in January, but her parents decided it would be more fun to wait until the weather began to get warmer so we could do her "one year" shoot outside on the Brooklyn Bridge. We had so much fun together, walking to all the different areas of DUMBO, not only is the location a photographer's dream, but so was she...enjoy!

Manhattan Maternity Photographer | Central Park Shoot

maternity photoshoot in central park

Yesterday afternoon I met up with Amanda for a maternity shoot in her favorite park-Central Park! She's due in about a month and had such a perfect little bump to photograph. We wanted the pictures to reflect the time of year, and being that she is due in the fall- we played around with the vibrant leaves which were all around us. Stay tuned to see her baby next month when we do the newborn session!

I didn't even realize this at the time....but the big tree that Amanda is leaning against (above, right image) looks like the shape of a belly bump! What a fun find.

Courtnay & Bridget-Sister shoot

This past Friday I met up with some friends to do a sister shoot. They had both just gotten their trial makeup done by my favorite makeup artist, Kerry Crawford (http://www.kerrydering.com/) for Bridget's upcoming wedding. Of course, they both looked gorgeous so I was super excited to take their picture! Here are some shots that stood out the most to me:

Today I met up with these love birds, who are getting married in 1 month (OMG!). We headed down to my favorite spot in Hoboken--luckily, the rain held up allowing us to have a fantastic shoot . Stay tuned for their wedding pix soon to appear on the blog and my website! kg1

Early Morning Central Park Shoot

On Monday I headed into NYC to meet a family on the east side of Central Park. We met before school and got some awesome shots. Between the color combo on the kids, the soft morning light and the leaves on the ground-it was a total success. I give major props to these guys for taking their coats off and pretending it was warm outside (it wasn't really that bad!). Anyway, here are some of my favorites... ella

Chloe's Shoot

Today I went to Brooklyn to shoot Chloe and her parents. We had an excellent photo session, Chloe was totally down with having her picture taken-primarily when she was the only one in front of the lens! As soon as I set my eyes on their funky couch and cool wooden doors I knew we HAD to do something involving them. Its a favorite, of course. chloe1
