As the sun was setting on another beautiful day at Hammonasset State Park, I had the privilege of photographing a wonderful family. Krista and Dave, with their daughters Maddie and Lilly, and their sweet pup, Jack all brought their A game to this session.
Hammonasset is always a favorite location of mine, with so many beautiful backdrops and private nooks, there's always a great spot to choose from.
Maddie and Lilly's infectious laughter and love for each other made it so easy to photograph their bond. I love to encourage everyone to interact naturally with each other. When everyone enjoys their surroundings and, of course, each other, it allows for some amazing expressions to surface, creating authentic memories that they will have for a lifetime.
When you're having your photo taken, don't be afraid to be a little silly or spontaneous. These moments often lead to the most memorable and authentic moments. Thank you Krista, Dave, Maddie and Lilly for bringing your love and silliness to your session!
Binney Park in Old Greenwich, CT, is a beautiful location for family portraits. I had the pleasure of photographing this wonderful family at the park right before sunset. Audrey and George, along with their children George, Katie, and Laura, joined by Laura's fiance Alec, made for a gorgeous family to photograph. Their warm smiles and fun demeanor made my job so easy!
I always try to get everyone to relax and have fun during their session. It is such a special time when your family is all together without the distractions of phones, texting, etc. It's the perfect time to chill and enjoy the experience. The more natural and relaxed you are, the better the photos will be.
Warmth, connection, fun, and love - this family had it all!
I had the pleasure of photographing this fun family at their home in Flushing, New York, during the beautiful spring season.
Ellie and Ari, with their three young sons, Ben, Isaac, and Abel, were full of energy and laughs. We captured some wonderful moments together. The vibrant colors of spring provided a stunning backdrop for capturing their family's spirit. I haven't been to Flushing since I was a kid and would watch the tennis tournaments they had at Flushing Meadows. I had so many great memories as I wound through the brick architecture of the stadium and made my way into their neighborhood. What a gorgeous place!
There's nothing better than keeping a family laughing during a photo session and making memorable moments together.
Thank you Ellie, Ari, Ben, Isaac, and Abel for all the laughs! You have an awesome family!
