the schw family
Grandma and Grandpa are good friends of ours (and Grandma is a loyal blog stalker as well). I was so happy when she asked me to take pictures of her WHOLE family and I couldn’t wait to do it!
We had a great time taking all the pictures and even threw in a ‘video your shoot’ with Jerry.
Still editing other shoots, so I’m going to let the pictures and the video do the rest of the work!
Thanks so much for all the fun K and company! I loved photographing all of you!!
Make sure you have your sound on…

almost there…
I have two shoots left to edit. Well, two shoots that need to be done before Christmas anyway. The two don’t include the wedding from October, my 40th bday party from September, Thanksgiving, Christmas stuff like our trip into NYC, and the 40th and 30th parties from December. But at least there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, and that tunnel is no longer 100million miles long.
Being that winter officially starts in about a week, I figured I should at least finally get the fall pictures I took of random stuff up. Today’s the day. Some from Hempstead Lake, some from Central Park and some from around NYC, and the grass from my front yard.
So unmotivated and tired today. Gotta keep on pushing thru. Almost there.

the byrn {extended} family
This whole group traveled in from Chicago and from Ireland (yup, a whole different country). I wish I could say that they travelled that far just for a bsquared shoot, but they came in to visit mom/grandma for Thanksgiving, and we were able to fit in a shoot for them as well since they were in town for an extended pre-holiday visit.
We met over at the Garden City hotel and although my favorite area was off limits for the shoot (they were setting up a party) we still were able to find some other pretty areas to shoot in.
The Irish contingent:
And the Chicago bunch. If you are a long time bsquared blog stalker than you may remember these twin girls and their parents from the girls christening I shot last Thanksgiving.
The sisters and their babies.
Great seeing all of you again! And if either of you are in great need of a bsquared shoot before next Fall, you can always fly me out to Chicago or Ireland. I’ll travel! 😉

the school star
A few weeks ago, I played Spiderman photographer up at the big boys school.
In order to get the shot for the front cover of the yearbook, I went up to the 2nd floor, climbed a ladder (yes, a freakin ladder), climbed out a window, and onto the 2nd story roof. Here’s the result.
I think it was worth it. But a ladder? Seriously? I’m 40 years old.
And I just have to mention that it worked out really well with my boys on the points of the star! Big thanks to all the moms who helped out with the star formation and getting the kids lined up and looking up! And Nancy for climbing out on the roof with me and not dropping the camera bag. Obviously, couldn’t have done it without all of you!
I’m not done with posting client shoots yet, just needed a day off from blogging clients to catch up on the editing.

the wals family
My 3rd year taking pictures for this ridiculously good looking bunch. A big change of venue for us this year as they are currently living in the Rockaways until their new home’s construction is completed.
Let me say that there is NO good way to get out there. Or back. But it was so worth it and we lucked out to no end with the beautiful weather we had on November 21st so that we could shoot on the beach. Comfortably!
Love the light!!
This poor little guy was just DONE. He fell asleep within seconds of shooting this. At this point in the editing process/holiday rush, I know exactly how you feel T!
Thanks for braving the (ends up not at all cold) beach with me! I had a great time and was smiling emptying out the sand from my shoes- in November- on the way home!
