Family and Newborn Photos is Saddle River

I love photographing families – and photographing growing families is definitely really high up on my Favorites List. I love capturing the chaos and joy that’s those first few months with a new baby at home.

Whenever my newborn clients ask me what’s the best time for their newborn session I always recommend to do it about 6-8 weeks after the baby is born. This gives Mom some time to recover and the whole family to settle into a life with a newborn. And the baby is a bit more aware at that point, which means that we can capture wonderful eye contract!

I love at home newborn sessions but at home newborn sessions when there are older siblings involved at my favorites! I always structure these sessions like a family session (because that’s what it is) with a newborn focus:)

This family session had a it all – a grand house tour given by the big brother, some story time, some tickle time, backyard adventures and quiet time with the new baby girl.

Fun afternoon | Wyckoff family photo session

A group of New Jersey family photographers is a pretty tightly knit community and I am very lucky to have made great friends with  local photographers.  We talk shop but also talk about children, husbands, vacations, dogs and other important things:)  One of such friends is Christine from Two Leaf photography.  Unfortunately for us (for lucky for those of you on the West Coast) she moved out to California – so if any of you are out there you gotta look her up – she is great.   Christine values my work and refers her old clients to me – which means so much!  This family has been a referral from her and I am so glad that I got to meet them.

I’ve photographed these girls once before – when they came to my Ridgewood studio for a studio holiday session.   I was really excited about their family session because you know – I love family photography:)   I have to say that I had such a great time with them – these girls were SO entertaining!  Big sister S. is wise beyond her years and knows all about sharks.  And her little sister E. is hilarious – I was laughing throughout the whole session!  When these girls came to my studio with their parents for their viewing/ordering sessions they ran up to me and gave me huge bear hugs – made me feel so loved!   And the little one kept bursting out in giggles whenever she saw her pictures:)  Both girls were involved in picking out images for their canvas collage – I think it is so cool that it was a family decision!

Happy Happy Joy Joy | Ridgewood family photographer

I love my Ridgewood photography studio but my passion has always been on-location family photography.  As a Ridgewood family photographer I love going to people’s home all over Bergen County or meeting them in parks for their family sessions – everything is green and bright and happy!  But with on-location outdoor photography comes a challenge – the unpredictability of weather!  We had to reschedule this family session TWICE due to rain.  But third time was a charm because when we finally did met everything was absolutely perfect – starting with outfits (this Mom did an amazing job with two different sets of outfits!), locations (we split up the session between a park in Wyckoff and downtown Ridgewood – to get urban images) and this family, which was one of the happiest and most loving familiest I’ve met – and that’s saying something because all my families are simply awesome!  But my favorite part of this family session was baby H. – if you think he looks cute in pictures you gotta see him in person – you won’t be able keep your hands to yourself – you will want to hug, squeeze and hold him!  He has amazing laughter, a toothy grin, adorable chubby cheeks, elbow dimples, long beautiful eye lashes, a head full of curly hair and such a sunny personality!   And if that was not enough, he was born on April 23rd – which is the day of MY birthday!!!!  It truly was such a pleasure to photograph him and his family.

So if you need for a little ‘pick-me-up’ do yourself a favor and scroll through these images – I promise they will make you smile!

Fall family photo session in Wyckoff

Fall is here and that means that it is time for holiday family pictures!  Being a Bergen County family photographer, I’ve been meeting and photographing so many families from Ridgewood, Wyckoff and all over Bergen County over the last few weeks!  Here is a session spotlight of a Wyckoff family photo session I did recently.  If these girls look familiar you may remember them from their studio holiday mini session  we had at my Ridgewood photography studio last year.  This session was a blast – after all – a loving family, adorable kids and a great location is a perfect recipe for a successful family photo shoot:)  I was able to capture fun personalities for these sisters and upon seeing the images their Mom said that they were very ‘them’ – which to me is the highest compliment I can receive!
