Bergen County family photo session

What can I say about this family session I had in Wyckoff recently? Just how much I loved it! The kids are adorable (as you can see for yourself!), a bit dramatic (but then again, show me a little girl that is not) and so much fun. And the parents are sweet and loving. And all of that translates into beautiful family images!

Annual daffodils photo shoot in Wyckoff

I tell all my New Jersey clients how much I love having photo sessions in Wyckoff in the spring – when blooming daffodils create beautiful backdrops for kids and family images. And as much as I love having family sessions there with my clients, I love photographing my own kids there! Every year I do a daffodils photo sessions with my girls and this year was no exception.

Alexa’s top tooth was wiggly for literally months and I was hoping it would be out in time for our photo shoot. To expedite the process we tried pulling it (she would chicken out at the lat minute) and have her eat chewy food but that did not work – as you can see from the images below. But would not you know it, a couple of days after I took the picture below, Alexa was playing with her headband and knocked out her tooth! So of course I had to do another quick reshoot:)

A loving Ridgewood family and their photo session

One of my favorite things about being a New Jersey family photographer is meeting children and families from all over in Bergen County. And one of my favorite things about meeting new families is seeing love and interaction between parents and kids and brothers and sisters. And there was so much love at this family session – so much of it that I could almost physically feel it! As the youngest child and the only girl in a family with two big brothers you expect this young lady to be loved and doted on. But to say that this baby girl is loved is an understatement. She is absolutely ADORED by her big brothers and parents. The brothers were showering her with love (and grass!), kissing and hugging her and making her laugh. She is one lucky little girl:) Actually all five of them are pretty lucky because they belong together!

A warm spring day in the city

Every once in a while we drive into the city for a quick ‘half-day trip’ – and we did just that over the weekend. We were planning to take the girls to Governor’s Island but they had other ideas so we followed their lead and ended up exploring South Street Seaport and Battery Park with them – our old ‘hood’!

Mia and Alexa loved ‘riding’ citibikes – and my ‘riding’ I mean pedaling locked bikes (as they cannot be rented out to kids younger than 16). Mia tried teaching me how to ride one – did you know that I cannot ride a bicycle?! She told me that there are TWO important things about riding a bike : ‘knowing how to pedal and knowing how to balance’. The lesson that day focused on ‘pedaling’ part:)
