mikey’s first communion
One of my favorite bsquared families was celebrating their son’s first communion so I headed over to their home earlier in the day of the actual mass & party to take some pictures. Mikey was awesome and sweet, as was the rest of the family and I had a great time with them.


Mom really hates getting her picture taken. I think she did amazingly well!!






Tried a different edit on these- more of a film look.

Hope you had a great rest of your day!! -
the pice family/ daniella’s first communion
Travelled up to their house in Canada for this fantastic early morning light session. (Ok, so it wasn’t actually Canada, but it was pretty far upstate). It was worth the trip to meet this great family who were all so nice, welcoming and photogenic! Daniella’s communion was actually later that day and they were having a big candy themed party at their home. Hope it was wonderful!!












The boys are hockey and lacrosse kids. And baseball and soccer. But I couldn’t fit them all into the shots. 


Had to get one shot with the dog.
Her room is so perfectly decorated and girly. I love it!!
Stunning!

dylan’s first communion
So continuing on from yesterday’s session, here’s the fantastic family that I ended the last session with on the group photos- and now they have their own communion to celebrate.
The rain picked back up (you can see it in the pictures) but we made the best of it and shot as fast as we could to get all of us out of the rain.


Another set of grandparents to help celebrate the special day. 




Thanks for a great session and for the sunny yellow accents that brightened the day up! -
tyler’s first communion
Back into posting and editing communions for the next few days. Happy to bring you photos from Tyler’s first communion day. More of the rainy day, but we had a little break from the rain thankfully to get a few pictures in on the grounds of the church before his actual communion mass begun. I love photographing this family- they are always fun, funny and just so happy!




Grandma & Grandpa joined in for a few shots as well. 




Their best friends son’s communion was during the mass immediately before theirs, so we got them all together for a few pictures, too. Nothing like celebrating with the whole gang!!

mothers day 2012
I had a great day last weekend for Mothers Day. We went to brunch (yum, soooo good!) at Hempstead with our whole family, my inlaws, my parents (my dad was finally feeling better and well enough to go!), and Joe, Gail, James & Quinn. The boys and John got me some great cards (some handmade- my favorite!), a gift certificate for a massage at the Garden City Hotel, and a new Coach bag & wallet. My mom bought me a super cute Mickey bag.
It was an awesome family day and I was feeling really grateful all day. Just brought along the little camera, but that thing definitely gets the job done.
The boys wore some pink just for me.










And for those of you playing along at home, my newest nephew (born to Joe and Gail yesterday morning) Joseph Rothwell made his debut weighing in at 8lbs, 6oz and everyone is doing great. So that is 9 grandchildren/cousins. And 9 boys. It’s kinda like Ferris Bueller- “nine times” . Pictures soon- I’m hoping to get to see him next week. Congrats to Joe, Gail, James & Quinn!!
