Wow. When I started going through these baby photos, I was amazed at how many babies I’ve photographed this year! Obviously photographing babies is a total joy and picking a ‘best of…’ selection was really hard. All my favorites ended up being black and white images, which I found interesting. I’m going to try to keep my ‘best of…’ posts to ten images. So here are my top ten favorite baby photos of 2009…










… Stay tuned for best of preschoolers!
Oh my! It’s been a crazily busy time here, but it feels fantastic. I spent the past week filling lots of holiday print orders (hooray for people thinking of things early!) and posting hundreds of preschool photographs in their galleries! On top of that, I’ve been photographing newborns and families and booking weddings for 2010 – I’m just having a wonderful time.
I’m also happy to mention that I have a minted storefront. Anyone who did a 2009 shoot can visit and order holiday (and other) cards directly from Minted using photos taken during our shoots. If you aren’t familiar with their work – check it out (click me)!
But now onto the title of this post… New Yorkers were so lucky to have such amazing weather last weekend (as it pours outside my window while typing this). Last Sunday I headed uptown to photograph Fayez, Mira and Sami. We spent some time in Central Park (further north than I usually visit – which was great!), their apartment and then at a nearby playground. I think we got some great holiday card shots. Here is a sneak peak at a few of my favorite shots – thanks you guys for fun morning!



(I hope to post more soon!)
I really, really, really love my job. Some days, when I’m on my way to ‘work’ I get the urge to pinch myself, because it’s hard to believe that I actually get to do what I love to do for a living. There many things I love about being a photographer, but the best things of all are the people I get to meet and the places I get to go.
I’m also luck to be a photographer in New York, because I have an endless supply of amazing ‘backdrops’ and I try to never take that for granted. I also think its amazing that I get to interact with so many wonderful people! From musicians, to new parents, to couples in love, to aspiring actors, to hysterical pre-schoolers… how could I ever get bored?
I’ve been super busy lately, so blogging is going to have to take a bit of a back-seat. But here is a peak at all the fun shoots I had in the last 24 hours (minus all the film I’ve been shooting, which I hope to post soon!).

In case you haven’t already… become a fan on facebook!
Sigh… This little one is so new to the world that, when I photographed her yesterday, she had yet to be named! She is just beautiful (with some really awesome hair!) and I wish her family all the best. Stay tuned, you’ll be seeing lots of newborns as I’ve begun to photograph for Gaga Baby Photos, which is just so exciting! Being around so many newborns and excited moms and dads, it’s an amazing feeling. You can’t help but smile nonstop – which is a pretty nice thing to be doing at ‘work’!
Enjoy!




Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing Sammy, Cecelia and Marco – they just turned two! Back in December when I photographed them it was snowy and cold, so we stayed indoors. This time ’round we headed over to Battery Park – a favorite location of mine. It was hot, hot, hot yesterday, but these three (and mom!) were total troopers. No upsets at all, which is always great.



After some time in the sun, we all needed to cool off, so we made our way to one of Battery Park’s playgrounds. It is really nice when your ‘work’ brings you to a sprinkler park!


The sprinklers were a bit tricky – they turned on and off with no warning!


A favorite shot of mine!



Seriously, these three were total angels for two straight hours! I thought they’d be upset leaving the water (to be honest, I was a little upset!), but they were completely okay. The lollypops may have helped – kudos to mom for being well-prepared!

We headed back home where they washed the sand and lollypop off and had some lunch.

That face! Too cute for words.

Thanks for a fun morning!!!
Hello friends!
It has been a long time, I know! I haven’t been slacking in the area of taking photos, just in the area of blogging them!
I photographed the adorable (and so so tiny) Marley a few weeks ago. Here are some of my favorite images and the announcement designed by my talented sister!
Congratulations, again, Seth and Janine!

Today I had the pleasure of spending time with little Alex (just six weeks old!) and his mom. Alex was a total trooper, staying awake the entire time (the image with his eyes shut he was faking it!). There was also something sort of moving about photographing a newborn as our new president was being sworn into office.
Here are a few shots from today.
I photographed him through the mesh of his crib. The resulting texture made me think of an aged photo so I played a bit with the image.

Alex acting.


Probably my favorite… so far.

On Tuesday, I had the pleasure of photographing an adorable set of triplets. I love, love, love how they interacted with one another and I’m really pleased with the way the photos turned out. I think all this snow has put me in a black and white mood!
Enjoy.




This is my first post on the new blog!
These are highlights from my photo shoot with Audrey. I’m still learning to post photos – so am hoping this works out nicely! Audrey was such a pleasure to photograph. Meeting her, Jeni (mom) and Ross (dad) was such a pleasure. Thanks to mom and dad for braving the traffic and traveling to Queens! Enjoy the photos!
