Sweet newborn { East Syracuse photographer}

I've been doing photoshoots with this family for years.  I've had the honor of watching their family grow and now they have their 3rd daughter, Mariana.  She is incredibly beautiful, just like her mother and big sisters.  They are blessed.

Happy 1/2 Birthday! {East Syracuse Child Photographer}

The first year is a miraculous time of growth.   Watching children change from when they were infants just amazes me and is one of the reasons I love photographing families.  This little one is no exception.  He has grown so much since the fall!  I could just snuggle him all day... even though he's in the drooling phase ;)

YAY for twins!  And wow, how about having a boy and a girl!  It's so interesting to observe the differences in siblings.  Little Walter was so calm and relaxed.  He was incredibly alert but would just lay there listening and looking around.  Little Evelyn was also very alert but wanted things in a particular way.  It was her way or, her way ;)  What I loved most was that after some time of trying to get them sleepy we decided to snuggle them next to one another.  And guess what?  They fell fast asleep.  If that's not the sweetest thing I don't know what is!

I have to admit one of the main reasons I like photographing newborns is because I get to hold them.  I love their smell, their squishiness, their little noises, and sleepy smiles.  And because I am done having children, I get my baby fix!  Little John was the perfect baby to get in my snuggles.  He looks just like his big brother and is just as sweet as his big sister.  Love this family!

We always hear it, "get in the photos".  Being a photographer I am typically the one behind the camera.  I try really hard to get in the photos but sometimes, ok, often it doesn't happen.  That's why this past Mother's Day I decided I would get a photo of me and my girls.  I'm happy with the way it turned and and we actually had a fun time doing it!

One Year Old Birthday Photoshoot {Syracuse NY Child Photographer}

Phew... it's been a busy few months.  Not just in the studio but in my personal life.  But now I'm back at it ready to photograph, blog, and work my tail off.

Here is a beautiful 1 year old.  I photographed this family last summer and was contacted to photograph the first birthday.  It was so nice to see Miss Rosalie and her mother.  The first word that comes to mind to describe them both is SWEET.  Just plain sweet.   We had a great time and Rosalie really started to warm up to me!  From balloons to tea sets we tried it all.  Enjoy.

Believe in the beauty of today.  Believe in the magic.  Believe in love.  Believe.

Catching up!

The last few months have been super busy with births, senior sessions, then the fall sessions, and of course the holidays.  January gives me a little more time to play catch-up.  As much as I would love to dedicate an individual blog post to each session, I just don't have the time.  So here are some of the previous sessions I didn't get a chance to blog about.  I've also had quite a few sessions this year that clients have requested I not share on the web or social media.  I have no problem with that what-so-ever.  To be honest it is a difficult request when I'm looking at the most beautiful portraits but I will always respect all my clients wishes.  Ok, on with it...
