Ridgewood Christmas pictures at Bergen County photography studio

I can hardly believe that I’ve had a retail photography studio for over 5 years now!  And this is 6th year in a row that I’ve been testing out my holiday setups on my children:)

When the girls were little they were not very enthusiastic about having their pictures taken for holiday cards but a few years that has changed and now they actually ASK me to go to the studio and take their pictures.  This year I’ve gotten a whole lot of new props and built a few new sets and I think these sets are my favorites I’ve done so far!   And these holiday dresses from Hanna Andersson went really well with them:)

Cereal, jumping in bed and sink baths – Ridgewood lifestyle family photo session

When I spoke to this Mom about their Ridgewood family photo session she said that she did not want any posed images – all she wanted was fun and interactive photos of her family.  This was music to my ears because doing at home family sessions in Bergen County and capturing families’ every day moments is my absolute favorite thing to do!  And when she asked me if it would be Ok to capture a kitchen sink bath ritual they do with the baby of the family I knew that this session was be super fun.  And fun (and a bit chaotic) it was!

I arrived at their Ridgewood home bright and early (at 7:30!) and was able to capture their morning routine.  We got everything: from having cereal and listening to kids songs for breakfast to jumping on their parents bed and climbing into the little brother’s crib, getting their hair brushed by dad and getting bathed in the sink by Mom, climbing on windows in the bedroom and jumping from couches in the living room!  It was chaotic and loud and unscripted and absolutely perfect!  This was my first purely lifestyle family photo session in a while and I absolutely LOVED it!

And what’s even more important than ME loving it is that these parents loved it as well!   At their viewing/ordering session, after seeing literally just first TWO images this mom told me that she loved them and wanted to buy them ALL.  And when I joked that maybe she would hate the rest (after all, she only saw two at that time) she told me that feel of the images was exactly what she wanted to capture.  And that made my day!  And yes, she did buy them all:)

If you are located in Ridgewood or anywhere else in Bergen County and would like to have natural and fun family photos reach out to me – I would love to be your Bergen county lifestyle family photographer!

Labor Day weekend in Ocean City New Jersey

We love to travel so it came a bit of a surprise to us when we wanted to go back to Ocean City New Jersey the year after we first visited.  Now Ocean City is our special place and we’ve been going there every year since the girls were 3.5.   We were not sure if we were going to make it down the Shore this year around because we had a big European trip scheduled over the summer (a separate blog post about it is coming up soon!) but I am glad the place we always rent had availability for over Labor Day weekend and to Ocean City we went!

What made the visit even more fun is that we went with our friends – a family who have twin boys a year older than the girls.  The kids have fun together and so did adults!

we hung out on the boardwalk and had ice-cream (Kohr’s brothers chocolate/vanilla twist dipped in chocolate is my absolute fav!)

spent a lot of time at Castaway Cove – our fav amusement park down here – and Mia proved yet again that she does NOT take after me as she went on not one but TWO crazy rollercoasters!

squeezed in time for a mini beach photo shoot:

and spent a lot of time on the beach building sand castles, boogie boarding and playing in the waves:

it was a perfect Jersey Shore weekend and a great way to end the summer of 2018!  Hope we will be back in Ocean City next year!

Bergen County First Communion portraits at Ridgewood photography Studio

I first met this family three years ago when they came to my Ridgewood studio to capture First Communion portraits of their daughter.   They reached out to me again this year when it was time for First Communion portraits of this handsome guy.  He was the chattiest and most laid back 8 year old I’ve seen in a long long time.  We hung out a bit at my Ridgewood studio and then headed outside to get a few cool outdoor shots.  During this time I’ve learnt that the part he was most excited about was getting all the presents for this First Communion and that he rated this First Communion photo session an 8 out of 10:)
