the kra block party
This has become an annual traditional shoot for me which I am very happy about! It’s always a super fun afternoon/evening filled with fun people and rockin bands and this year was the same- we even had good weather this year. And for the first time their son played a duet with his dad (Jackson on drums just like his dad, dad on guitar) on Johnny Cash’s Folsom Prison Blues. Jackson even had groupies!! There was a freshly engaged couple, a waterslide, a few bands, a pop-up surprise birthday cake, lots of food, drinks and fun!

jessica’s sweet 16
So this sweet young lady who just celebrated her sweet 16 is the niece of a high school classmate & friend. I was so happy to not only see Tami and catch up a little between shots but to meet and photograph her niece’s special day! It was a super cute Parisian themed party at the Sunset Harbor in East Patchogue (I’ve lived on Long Island basically my whole life give or take, and never knew this place even existed. Its way off the beaten path and you’d never find it if you didn’t know about it). We had a kinda muted sunset with lots of cloud cover but we made it work anyway. My favorite part besides the people were the awesome macrons- one in Tiffany Blue that matched my car!

the fran family
A brand new to bsquared bunch I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing a few weeks ago. Although it was a bit of a challenge with lots of littles, we had a great time and got it done with smiles and giggles. Grandma & Grandpa have their hands full and their hearts especially full with all those beautiful grandchildren and I’m sure they wouldn’t want it any other way!

introducing…baby charlotte
I was so excited to hear the news that “miss andrea” and family were expecting a new addition this august! (brief backstory: “miss andrea” was timmy’s occupational therapist at Kidz Therapy waaaay back in the day when he was super little. we loved her! i also second shot miss andrea & matt’s wedding with my photografriend Alan a few years ago, and then got lucky enough to do their son Teddy’s newborn shoot! So there’s quite a bit of history there!) It was so great being back with them on another special day for some newborn photos and updated family shots too. Some of the pictures cracked me up- life is chaos! Charlotte is so sweet and delicious!

the silv family
I think this is my 3rd time photographing this always adorable family, but this time we mixed it up a little and went to the beach. It was a beautiful (but a bit windy!) evening with gorgeous light and pretty subjects! Little miss Juliette was as much as a spitfire as always but when she’s as cute as she is, it’s not so bad chasing after her a little! Can’t wait for next year’s session!
