This was a really fun and unique shoot.  Met dad online and found out we were both photographers!!! We both wanted some pictures of ourselves with our kid(s) so we did an even exchange of services and got some great pictures, here are some of the ones I took.




H Kids.....Beautiful day!

WOW. I would like to use these kids for an ad.....LOL Titled, Parents, this is how photos come out when your childrens behavior is impeccable!!!! They were so well mannered and cooperative, taking these pics was a breeze, and I know will make a great card.  I wish my session with C went this easy when I was shooting card pics!




Family shoot!

I was super excited when my parents asked me to take a few pictures of them when I came up to NY for Thanksgiving.  They NEVERRRRR want their picture taken, and there are pretty much no pictures of them at all, as they are usually hiding from the camera.  Not sure why, because these pictures cam out adorable. Also, my brother and his girlfriend wanted in on the action, and it was super fun shooting a couple that was incredibly willing and photogenic!  It was windy and probably 35 degrees, so it was a challenge, but this location is absolutely my favorite place to go on Long Island (thus far). Here are a few favorites!!





Drumroll......2010 Official Holiday Card Blog!!

Due to extreme amounts of school work, I am a tad late on putting this together for this holiday season. Please forgive me, those of you know that know me well can attest to the fact that I am easily p.o.'d by tardiness and disorganization!!!! So again, I apologize. Please note, we still have plenty of time to design and order cards.

1)  First things, first.  Pricing.  Several of you have opted to do the mini-session special for $100 which included a mini-session, 10-12 proofs and 25 holiday cards/envelopes.  If you are choosing to purchase cards ala carte and use photos from a session earlier in the year, please see pricing below:

Sets of 25 Cards:  (Linen Texture/Front & Back printing/Envelopes Included)

Flat Card (Card Stock) 5x7 size     1 Set (25):  $43.75/set
                                                                         2 or more sets (50+):  $37.50/set
                                                   5x5 size     1 Set (25) : $42.50
                                                                         2 or more sets (50+): $35.00

Trifold Greeting Card ( 5x5 Square)   1 Set: $42.50
(extra postage required)                                    2 or more: $35.00

Luxe Cards (New for 2010!!)  (5x5 or 5x7 shapes)   1 Set (25) = $55.25

                                                                                                               2 or more sets (50+) = $53.25



2)  The Designs! Please keep in mind that all cards can be printed front and back. Some designs have a back designed already and some do not, this is all negotiable.  Any Trifold card (6 squares, like an accordion, printed front and back) are 5x5 pieces strung together. So, any trifold template square can be used as a single 5x5 flat card if desired.  *THE BEST WAY to do this, is to either stop by my house or over the phone.  Ordering these online is too difficult, and I would like to minimize, if at all possible, the 1000 emails going back and forth to change designs/wording etc.

I will say with trepidation, that each template you see here CAN be modifiable.  However, wording changes and fairly simple, changing the layout, colors, wording, pictures, etc. is not OK. Wish I had more time to build everyone a card from scratch, but I don't!!  I will try to post some more designs in the next week...  The Luxe Cards are new for this year, and I will be ordering these for myself, because they are BEAUTIFUL!!!!  please email me or call with any questions. I appreciate everyones patience!!!!!

R Boys- Christmas Pics

Just love Christmas Sessions---its a good way to get in the spirit of the holidays, even though its still early. Its also a good way to say, SHOOT! I am no way ready for Christmas this year, I better get my butt in gear!!! So whenever I start Christmas sessions, I know that is my cue to get goin!   These boys just get more and more handsome each time I photograph them!  They were my favorite Christmas card photo from last year...... FLASHBACK to 2009.....

Here are a few of my favorites from this years mini-shoot......




My 1st Christmas Mini of the Year - Little Miss E

I have been dying to take pics of this little cutie for quite some time,..and mom and I finally got our schedules linked up to do some Christmas pictures, we will hopefully be doing 13 month photos soon in keeping with the family tradition of baby photos at 13mos. What a cute idea!  I just love the results on these, I think they will make some adorable cards!





H Family

Wow! Did this family have it together! Adorable matching Christmas outfits for the kids.  Love the ones of the three of them together with these plaids! Everyone was cooperative and photogenic! I don't think I have ever photographer a group of 5 or more and shot that little frames.  Hope you all enjoy these! Thanks for letting me work with you!
