children & families

the gove family

This adorable little family from out in Brooklyn came to me by way of the roma family, who’s pictures I took a few weeks back. The shoot was a surprise gift for daddy for an early Fathers Day present. (love that)

So I saddled up and headed out to Brooklyn (yay for GPS) and spent a really fun afternoon with this great family walking down to Prospect Park and then all around it.

Their little girl was such a sweetie. She was full of energy and fun and smarts. She reminded me so much of Timmy’s best girl Olivia when she was 2 (so much so that I almost called her Olivia a number of times, and so much so that I had Olivia’s mom come look at the pictures on the computer while I was editing and even she was amazed about how much Miss N looks like Olivia).

The neighborhood was so great– photo ops galore. And the park…how I love Prospect Park. I recently learned that it was designed by the same people who designed Central Park. No wonder I like it so much.

I knew we would get along just fine when I saw daddy’s shoes! (so had to do the family feet shot on a Brooklyn street!)

The weather had been touch and go all day and it started raining JUST as I left their apartment to head back to my car. We lucked out.  And I even found the cutest little kids clothing shop and stopped in to buy Timmy a few cute dress up things. A successful day all around!
