Who says you have to go to a beautiful garden or a golden hour sunset at the beach to have amazing family photos? As a matter of fact a lot of families are so much more comfortable being somewhere familiar to them. There is nothing more familiar than your own property! The love and connection still shines through no matter where we take your family photos.

What better way to celebrate turning one than closing on a new home the day of your cake smash!

When I walk into someone’s home I have never met before I am always a nervous wreck. I do my best not to show it but believe me I am. Being really shy (or introverted) my whole life I have always had a hard time making small talk and for the most part feel awkward around new people I meet.

When we first moved to this neighborhood there weren’t too many kids. Once we had Jade we noticed there were a few others, but really not that many.

Meet sweet baby Maddox & the rest of her adorable family. Seriously…they are pretty cute right?!?! They welcomed me into their home to document baby Maddox’ early days at home.

Trying my best to keep up with blogging all the sessions and I am feeling all over the place! How did I never post the sweetest little tea party ever!? It was one of my faves th

Talk about a gorgeous Summer evening! We definitely lucked out with the weather this day. After having to reschedule their original date due to crazy storms, I was nervous about the weather the day of being they were traveling to me from Staten Island! Weather is sooooo unpredictable and can really mess with outdoor session scheduling.

Meet the very fun and very sweet Dinneen Family. They celebrated this special Grandma’s birthday by gifting her a family session surrounded by all of her grandkids, kids and lots and lots of love. What more could a Grandma ask for on her special day :)

If you are wondering why In-Home Newborn sessions are my favorite, this session right here is why. Look at how comfortable this family looks behind the lens. Everyone automatically feels more at ease in their own home which make for the sweetest, most natural photos.

I think this above image is one of my fave pics of all time. I mean that face! Some might say I am cruel being it’s a crying baby pic, but this truly shows how unpredictable children this age are. It happens so often. You don’t know how they will react during a cake smash until you are actually in it.

We love going on walks. Everyday we take some sort of walk whether that be a quick walk around our neighborhood or a longer walk at one of the amazing parks around us. My daughter won’t leave the house without one of her stuffed animals. She pretty much always has one snuggled by her side, but inevitably I end up having to carry them when we are out on our adventures. She either gets tired of holding it or she wants to throw rocks in the pond or she wants to walk our pup, Ollie, and doesn’t want to drop her furry stuffed friend along the way.

Wishing all the special moms out there a very Happy Mother’s Day! Look at this amazing gallery of beautiful, strong and loving moms! This is what I love to photograph! The love and connection that we have for our kids…not the smiling and looking at the camera pics. The true connections that we all share with our babies.

Happy Mother’s Day! Enjoy your day!

The goal for Lifestyle Headshot and Branding sessions is to stay true to your own personal style while still keeping it professional. For some this could be the hardest part of the session itself.

HELP…WHAT DO I WEAR??

Another Fall session with a really fun…and adorable family! Meet the Mauriello Family.

We met at the beautiful Cross Estate Gardens. Have you ever been?

I have been working on this personal project during the quarantine called "Through The Glass". I was inspired by a few others who I have seen doing some really cool quarantine images through windows and I thought it would be fun to take pictures of families around my neighborhood to document this uncertain time in our lives.
