    the bozz family {mini session}

    My very good friend Zoraida and her son stopped by for a mini session again this year. I’m sure you blog stalkers out there remember Z from past shoots that we did for her and from her second shooting a few weddings with me this past year. She’s starting her own photography business as well and I couldn’t be happier or more excited for her.

    M gets more and more handsome every year. And more and more sick of me taking his picture every year too. Sorry, dude. Between me and your mom, there’s always going to be a camera pointed at you!Handsome I tell you. I mentioned that already, right?

    the gonz family {mini session}

    Another new to bsquared family that I was so happy to meet and make some pictures with. Their handsome son was very, very nervous of me and pretty stiff to start out (he was pretty tired too having spent the whole day before at Great Adventure riding all the big rides. If he can ride the big rides, he really shouldn’t be afraid of ME!)  but he did relax and warm up a bit by the end, especially while taking pictures with mom & dad.

    Some families dig the graffitti, some don’t. Dad said that he was from Queens originally and would love to have a picture with something from his youth. Right up my alley, too! Thanks for a great session and it was so nice to meet you. Hope you enjoy your pictures!

    the rign family {mini session}

    While I only met this family recently, I’m so glad to have them as a new addition to the bsquared family. Their daughter goes to school with Timmy so I see mom every morning while waiting for the kids to go in. And it turns out I graduated high school with dad’s brother.

    I was told that Dad found the photoshoot significantly less painful than he anticipated. Always good news. For both of us. They were so good and so gorgeous. A real pleasure to photograph.

    the pata family {mini session}

    The first shoot in a really, really full day of mini sessions over at Hempstead Lake State Park. A great way to start out the day with a beautiful family with little girls full of energy and fun. Had to work fast- because they were fast and because they were done with the shoot fast, too!

    Love the little tongue that kept popping out throughout the shoot.  Thanks for a great start to a long day!

    halloween

    With all the goings on here, I can’t quite bring myself to write “happy” halloween. Although Jack did find his sense of humor (with a little nudging) and went as ‘head injury’ Jet player- ya know cause he got tackled too many times. Just fyi, Jack isn’t wearing those bandages for his concussion in real life.

    Saw Timmy’s friends Olivia and Gavin for a few minutes. It’s a tradition to go trick or treating together but we just couldn’t do it this year cause we kept it at a minimum with Jack’s head.And Halloween isn’t Halloween without some scary ass clowns. Evil tennis anyone? And a few scenes from Timmy’s school Halloween parade on Friday. Tell me he’s not THE cutest Harry Potter.

    Timmy with his BFF Jack and Jen T (Jack’s nurse) as a Ninja Turtle. Sorry Jen, but I did warn you you would get blogged. Some of my favorite teachers/staff. I’m sure you blog stalkers will recognize them. Timmy’s teacher from this year and a little lady bug who was just on the blog for her family portrait session this past week.  Hope you all had a great Halloween. I’m just hoping November goes better than October ended.
