A lovely evening honoring some special members of our community. Going super slim on narrative today- so behind in editing! The pictures are pretty self explanatory.

ssms baseball vs. uniondale
The SSMS first baseball game of the year, so of course I took pictures. And ironic isn’t it. That this blog is somehow turning into a baseball blog. When you all know how I feel about baseball…
They didn’t win but played a good game. Jack had two great plays at first and a nice hit. I’m sure you’ll recognize a few of the faces from the Royals and from football last year.

timmy’s magazine debut
Last summer I took a photo workshop with the absolutely amazing Zoe Berkovic. We became friends (she really likes my cursing and zombie obsession!) and when she put a casting call out for a size 7 boy for an editorial shoot on Facebook, I barely restrained myself from jumping thru the computer to post “I HAVE A SIZE 7 BOY!!!!!”. Zoe was shooting an editorial spread for the brand new Teresa & Thomas magazine up in Big Indian, NY (which is like a 2.5hr + drive, but I would’ve driven to Portugal for a Zoe shoot!) and Timmy was accepted as a model for the shoot. He made his big debut in the 1st edition of the magazine last week and of course, I am in lurve with the photos.
This was the start of the whole modeling thing for Timmy. He’s really liking it and we’re having fun.
This was one of his full page spreads:
The picture on the left was another in the magazine. I love his pissed off face in the one on the right- that was taken after the whispering picture when Zoe asked the boys to kiss the girl on the cheek.
The left was another full page in the mag.
And the rest are all pictures that didn’t make it into the magazine, but are fantastic nonetheless. 
Zoe even took a few of me with my boy. Love!
And a few shots of the magazine itself. Taking pictures of pictures are never as good as the real thing but wanted to show you the magazine.
This was the “story” he was in.



A big thank you to Zoe for the use of the photos, and to Stacie Fitzgerald for styling Timmy for the session.

the brow family
A high school friend and her family- and I think we picked the perfect location for their session with fun & vibrant colors. And people! I’ve never photographed a family who laughed as much as they did- it was so fun! The little guy is definitely the family clown and kept us all laughing the whole time.












Love both of the next two so much, couldn’t chose between them.

ava’s communion
Haven’t seen this family in almost two years, since their littlest girl was born, so it was wonderful seeing them again and capturing beautiful Ava and her gorgeous family for her first holy communion photos. The whole 3 sister thing is so foreign to my life, but I loooooove photographing them!


Her eyes are seriously that blue.
