I love seeing ‘my newborns’ as as they grow and turn into toddlers and little kids and then big kids.  I first met this family when baby E. was just a couple of months old and I fell in love with all of the right away – they were just so sweet and loving to each other – so much so that I could sense it as if it was a separate being!   I was super excited to see them again – this time when E was a year old – and while he looks completely different from what he looked like at 2 months he was just as handsome and sweet as before – and his parents just as dotting as ever!

We spent some time time at James Mcfaul Environmental Center park in Wyckoff – this place is wonderful for outdoors photos.  And then, just like we did at their first session a year ago, we headed to their Grandparents home for some photos there.  And there we captured images of E. playing with his grandparents in his Mom’s childhood bedroom – how cool is that?!  I know I would love to have pictures of my kids playing with my parents in my childhood bedroom… too bad my childhood bedroom is across the ocean on another continent:)

I love photographing parents snuggling with their kids and I do that pretty often.  But photographing grandparents snuggling with their grandkids so just so special.  I came across this great quote ones “There is no words to describe the pleasure found in holding your baby’s baby’.   I am long way from holding my babies’ babies but I can imagine how amazing it must feel!  And being able to photograph that and bottle these moments, being able to create images that I know these parents and grandparents love now but that little E. will have and treasure many many many years for now makes what I do so special.  I am indeed one lucky girl to be able to be there for so many memories and to be able to help preserve their stories!

and if you want me to help preserve YOUR story reach out to me – I would love to photograph you!
