Family of Three {East Syracuse NY Photographer}

There's nothing like the colors of fall in Central New York.  We had the most beautiful day for this photoshoot.  

Family of Four {East Syracuse Photographer}

This was a beautiful day for a photoshoot.  The fall leaves were falling, the weather was warm, and the family was terrific.  I'm highly allergic to poison ivy and even after stepping in it and having it rubbed all over my legs, I did not break out.  Yes!  

Brothers {East Syracuse NY Family Photographer}

I had such a wonderful time watching the relationship between these two brothers.  Little brother Mikey just adores his big brother.  Love!

Booked {Syracuse NY Professional Family Photographer}

This has been such a wonderful year!  As I've stated before, I only book a limited number of clients per month.  I do this to ensure that my clients get nothing but my undivided attention and time.  I take care while editing the photographs; fixing acne, removing wrinkles, correcting white balance, removing distracting items in the photo, my creativity, etc.  I am not the type of photographer to rush this process and have a swinging door policy.  I am fortunate that my clients understand this and book me months in advance.  I feel blessed.  Because of this I have never had to advertise.  All my clients have been through word-of-mouth and nothing can top that.  Unfortunately that also means having to turn people away.  This is the worst feeling and I wish there were more time in the day.  I appreciate everyone's business and hope to meet many more people in 2014 because I am completely book for 2013!

Published {Syracuse, NY Child Photographer}

Time to celebrate.  I just scored my second cover!  I'm so ecstatic to not only have my image on the cover but also my daughter.  Her beautiful little face will be seen all over Manhattan, Long Island, and New Jersey. Now if only this publication were here in Syracuse!  Here is the cover...

Mickey Mouse Themed Birthday Party {Syracuse Professional Child Photographer}

Happy 3rd birthday to my caring, funny, clever, cautious, huggable, elephant loving little girl.  Today she was awake at 6am and we were finger painting by 6:30.  xoxo-mommy.

First I took my daughter out for her birthday photos....

The cake was made by Mrs. Kelder's Cakes located in Syracuse/ CNY.   

And a couple ideas I got from Pinterest.  Scoop icecream into cupcake wrappers and freeze.  It makes it a lot easier for guests to get their icecream.

And the party favors.

Valentine's Day Inspiration {Syracuse, NY Child Photographer}

Yes it's early but February tends to be a very busy month for me.  I decided to do a little early Valentine's Day photography shoot.  Those hearts were taped to the wall behind the girls.  It would be very easy to photoshop them in post production but where's the fun in that?   XOXO...

A little dance party...

And some sugar!

Happy New Year!  I can not tell you how much I am looking forward to 2013.  Professionally, I plan on learning, growing, and testing my boundaries artistically.  I can't wait to see where this year takes me and my family.  Here's to peace, happiness, and success!

Audrey Hepburn inspired little black dress { Child photographer Syracuse NY}

The natural light was just beautiful today in the studio.  I couldn't wait to photograph Isla in her new little black dress.  The second I saw that dress I thought, "Audrey Hepburn."  Add a strand of pearls and some sunglasses and you've got instant style.
