the gre family
This lovely family were nice enough to let me into their very busy and full home to catch some shots of them. The gre family has two MD’s, three kids- two of which swim competitively, 5 cats, a dog, 2 tortises, and I think that’s it (sorry if I left someone out). Crazy, right? But so, so nice. And dad totally resembles Dr. Jack Shepard from Lost! Makes it even harder to wait for the show to start later this month.
Anyway, the kids were so sweet and SO cooperative. And I think they had a good time. They seemed like they did. We did try for the whole family (animals and all) in a shot, but it just didn’t work out. The cats were not particularly interested- quite like a lot of the kids I photograph- but they couldn’t be bribed with animal crackers or new toys. The trampoline shots were the most fun- wow, those kids can bounce, flip and fly.

my prodigy!
These pictures were taken by my "niece" E who is 14 years old. She is John’s goddaughter and her parents are our good friends- the "Bart" family. I did their xmas shoot and card. E is taking Photo 1 in high school and these are for her final exam. If she dosen’t get an A+++, I’m going to have to have words with that teacher. You know I must really love her because not only do I let her watch my kids (teehee), I let her use my camera!!! We had some fun in photoshop with some actions and effects.
I think she really liked using the SLR- she definitely has the eye for it! Don’tcha think?

bcause i said so photoshoot
A friend of mine and her sister (who is now pretty much my friend too!) started a business a while ago called "bcause i said so", doing t-shirts for kids. Their stuff is super cute and original. If you haven’t before, you should check out their website at www.bcauseisaidso.com I have posted about them on the blog before. Well, today we did a photoshoot for some of the shirts that are supposed to be featured in Newsday magazine sometime in the spring. We had 6 kids all told- one of which was mine. The girls and the boys you should also recognize as they have both had photoshoots and been on the blog before.
The big boys were not interested this time, but I’ll try again with them. The "on the tooth fairy’s payroll" would be beyond perfect for them- but you know Patrick will NOT open his mouth to smile, so you wouldn’t be able to tell anyway!
Anyway, here are a few shots from today. What do you think? The rest are in an album on the left under "bcause i said so". Enjoy!

the mcc/sch family party
Finally edited the Christening that I shot back in November! The mom was super kind to me and let me get thru all the Christmas work I had to edit in order to get cards out on time for other clients. She said I could wait until the new year to work on hers. Well, after 2 days of work…they are done. You can view the whole album on the left side of the blog under the mcc/sch family party. Click on any image to see it larger. I did a little sneak preview on the christening previously on the blog, but here are a few more of my favorites.

Growing up squared!
A new idea that I had been thinking over for a while. A "grow up" plan. I will be offering a limited number of spaces in the plan, so if you are interested, please let me know as soon as possible.
The details are all listed in the card below. The locations for the shoot are of your choosing- any significant distances may be subject to a travel fee. The plan may only be used for immediate family (parents, kids, & pets)- no extended family, please. Parents do NOT have to participate, but you are welcome to be in as many or as few (or none) of the photos as you’d like. Dates during the last quarter will be hard to come-by, so I would suggest booking that quarter early. The "growing up squared" plan is not inclusive of parties or events- only family shoots. Obviously, since I am only offering this as of today, you can book the first quarter’s session upon sign-up- don’t worry about the month in advance for the 1st quarter!
If you have any questions or are interested in booking "growing up squared" sessions, please email me at bbeyrer1@optonline.net or you can always leave a comment below.
