the nitk family
This is my second time shooting for this cute little family, and I can’t believe how big their baby has gotten since I last saw them at Christmas. She’s gone from falling over while sitting to walking around like crazy. She was definitely easier to photograph at Christmas, but you gotta love the walking stage too. So cute!
Went to the local village green and tried to find a little shade to shoot in. There wasn’t much, but we made do.
A little mommy & daddy love.
And a pretty little bonnett.
A few back at her house in her favorite chair.
Great to see you all again. To see all of the pictures from this session, please click HERE.

the turn @ parkside lounge nyc
On a Friday night my favorite band had a show at the Parkside Lounge in waaaaaay downtown NYC. I was more than happy to go along and take some pictures, dance a little, and try out my new lenses.
The Turn put on a fabulous, rockin show and everyone really loved it. There was lots of cheering and encore requests and two new songs that were awesome. Can’t wait to hear those again so I can start singing along next time.
If you’d like to check out some of their music, please visit them here: http://www.myspace.com/rocktheturn I would definitely suggest going, you won’t regret it.
Some of my favorites from the evening (it was only an hour show, but I took a zillion pictures).
Apparently, everyone in the band except Brian got the “wear black t-shirts with dark jeans” memo…
Pat’s “guitar face” on the left.
Finally got some decent shots of Chris doin his thing on the drums. He’s always squished in the back with bad lighting but this time the lighting was a little better.
Love some singing from Pat!
And no Turn shoot would be complete without my favorite picture of Brian during the screaming part of Sex on Fire. I think I’m gonna see how many of these shots I can get over time- I have an excellent start already!
Maybe my favorite angle…
You guys rocked it– hard!! Great show and I’m continually so proud of you! You just keep getting better and better!! Can’t wait for the next show….

the mulv family
Hope everyone had a great weekend! A fun, happy, and colorful family to start off a new week.
The mulv family was gifted with a bsquared shoot by a mutual friend. After a few (really, a lot!) of cancellations & rescheduling due to weather and stomach viruses, we finally got our shoot in on a Friday morning when the kids had a day off from not using a snow day.
Visited a new location in Garden City which I really loved (good call, B). Think I will be suggesting this location to future clients. It’s so pretty.
The kids were great although the littlest ones are always tricky to catch!
And for a reward (and for more good pictures) Mom broke out the huge lollipops. I think we were all pretty happy with them.
Thank you for your patience on the rescheduling. Hope you think it all worked out as well as I do! To see all of the images from this session, please click HERE.

the butl rehearsal dinner
Ok, I know I usually don’t post client images on the weekends, but with last week’s record number of shoots, if I don’t post over the weekend I’ll be even more backlogged than I am!
This almost newlywed couple ( actually married for a week + now) came to me thru the bride’s sister (in the green dress) as I had done her family pictures a few times. I was asked to shoot the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding. This dinner could’ve been a wedding itself! So many people helping to celebrate the couple with speeches, slide shows, laughs, toasts and tons of love.
The bride was sick (what a bummer, huh?) but you could never tell by looking at her. She was fiercly fabulous and a real trooper. I got about 5 minutes with the bride and groom outside before they had to return to their guests and the evening commenced. I loved the gold wall and couldn’t pass it up.
The bride’s family and friends were great and so happy for R. A big thanks to the bride’s sister R for all of her coordinating and help during the evening. Their speeches were sweet and funny.
Turns out that the bride is a bit of a photographer herself but is very, VERY picky about how she looks and often has the owner of the camera erase photos if she dosen’t like the way she looks in them. I was told during one of the speeches that I had the toughest job that day. Hope you like the pictures, R and don’t make me erase any!
The groom’s dad, brother, friends and family had quite a lot to say during the speeches.
There was a crazy story about poop and grandma’s car during the groom’s brother’s speech. Grandma laughed so hard she was crying.
Love the reaction shots, always my favorite!
Hope the wedding went as well as the dinner and everyone had just as much if not more fun! To see all of the images from the evening, please click HERE.

5 for friday
Trying to make this a regular event here on the blog. Are you liking the 5 for friday posts or would you rather I just stick with posting client images? Feedback appreciated…
1. I hate bad drivers. You know, the ones who drive about 5 miles an hour and then don’t even stop at the stop sign. Drives me f***** nuts.
2. I am really officially in editing hell. With the 12 (yes, 12) shoots from last week, I’m not sure when/if I’ll catch up. I love the finished product but sometimes I’d like to leave out the middle part. Just the shooting and the posting of pretty pictures would be fine with me.
3. LOVING my two new lenses so very much. There really is something to be said for that L glass. Yummy.
4. Jack & Patrick have officially begun the orthodontic crusade this week. I say crusade because we have YEARS of this ahead of us. Besides the initial drama of worrying about it before it happens (gee, I can’t even imagine where they get THAT from…), the whole thing has been pretty great so far. They have both gotten seperators, multiple sets of impressions, and Patrick got his first set of back bands cemented to his upper molars today. We go back in a few weeks for the next bunch of work (Patrick will be getting a cemented retainer and Jack will be getting a cemented palate expander and partial top braces). Pictures to come when there’s really something to shoot. So far, can’t really see anything. They really are being troopers though.
5. Shooting a wedding tommorrow (can you hear me squeaking with anxiety?) with Beth W. and a communion Sunday afternoon. So even though there are significantly less shoots this weekend, the wedding stress is ON. I’ll be fine once I’m there and shooting, until then…not so much.
And because a post is boooorrrinnnngg without pictures, here are a few of the boys I took recently.
