Ridgewood tween photographer

We had to reschedule this Franklin Lakes family photo session a few times but third time was the charm because the weather cooperated and we had a great session.  I usually photograph younger kids but I have to say that I love photograph older kids like this one.  I don’t need to revert to my silly jokes or make a fool out of my self to make them laugh (not that I mind doing that!).  I am genuinely interested in learning more about each child and family I photograph and it is just easy to do that with tweens and teens:)  And I love showing kids the back-of-the-camera previews and seeing their reaction when they see their images!

Fun family photo session in a park in Wyckoff

This Ridgewood family photo session could not have been more perfect – two adorable kids, two laid-back parents, cute outfits, perfect weather, and lots and lots of hugs and laughter – if that’s not a recipe for a great session then I don’t know what is:)

I’ve photographed these kids once before – they came to my Ridgewood studio for a studio holiday mini session last year.   I was amazed at how much they grew and changed in less than a year.   Little brother P. turned from a crowing baby  into a super energetic happy toddler who seems to be always on the go:)  Big sister A., who was described by her mom as a bit shy, was so warm and open – she held my hand, and was ASKING me to take pictures of her here and there!

We wanted to capture lifestyle and unposed family images, which is what I am known for! and decided on a park in Wyckoff for this family session.  I love photographing kids and families there – it looks beautiful in all seasons and is a safe place for little ones to run around and have fun.  And have fun is what we did!    In their pre-session questionnaire this Mom mentioned that she wanted lifestyle images that captured her kids happiness and natural smiles and I think it is safe to say that this objective have been met!

Photographing Ridgewood sisters | Bergen County studio photography session

Apparently this family only had one ‘professional’ photo session – when big sister A. was a few months old and her Mom took her to one of the mall photography studio places to get pictures.  The way her Mom describes it, it was not a very pleasant (or relaxing) experience – the baby cried all the time, the Mom had to hold her while wearing Santa Gloves (the session was during Christmas time) and the images did not come out that great – with a wrinkly crying baby (Mom’s words, not mine).  Needless to say these images are not displayed anywhere in their house.

So when this Mom scheduled a studio photo session with me she really did not have much expectations.  The girls came to my Ridgewood studio and that’s where all the fun started – they were funny and easy going and I had a blast getting to know them and making them laugh.  And then we headed outside and proceeded with our sessions in a cool spot that’s very close to my studio – the color of the background matched their beautiful blue eyes perfectly!

When Mom saw these images at the studio during her viewing/ordering session she was very surprised – I guess her mall studio experience did not prepare her for the world of custom photography:)  She cried upon seeing the images – needless to say she absolutely loved them.  And I know that images from this session will be proudly displayed in their home!

Boys will be boys | Ridgewood family photographer

What do you get when you take a Ridgewood family with 3 very energetic, funny and handsome boys, add 2 photogenic parents and a very well behaved dog?  You get a very fun family photo session! There were lots of laughter, lots of silly jokes and LOTs of funny faces. And when the Mom saw the ‘funny faces’ picture she told me that it REALLY captured all her sons:)

Photographing long time clients in Wyckofff | Bergen County family photographer

If you’ve been following my family photography blog for a while this family will look familiar to you – this is not the first time I photographed them and I think it is not the last one either:)  At the photoshoot we tried to remember how many family photo sessions we’ve had together and how many years I’ve been photographing them for and lost count – I think it’s been at least 6 years and 7 sessions!  I had the great pleasure of watching the boys grow from toddlers to big kids (the oldest is going to middle school in the fall!) and see them become a family of 5!

This photoshoot took place around little G. third bday so he got a bit more attention than his brother during photoshoot.  I think that’s a common occurrence  though because this little guy is ADORED by everybody in this family.  Being a Bergen County family photographer I meet and photograph lots of amazing families and I love capturing love between family members.  But every once in a while you photograph a family where you can FEEL the love – do I sound like a song from a Disney movie?:)  This is the case with these guys – big brothers were almost arguing about who would get to be in pictures with G!  They were sweet and so caring and did a great job making him laugh (along with the Dad!).  I did not turn around much during a photoshoot to see what was going on behind me and how these gentlemen were making G. laugh – I think some things are best left unseen:)

I love how happy and full of energy these images are – I think they reflect the T. family perfectly!
