The weather has finally shifted and there are lots of signs of spring. I have just heard the weather forecast for a weekend of rain. This doesn’t stop the opportunity for capturing wonderful photos of children. Children enjoy playing both indoors and outdoors. Here are photos from a rainy day weekend.

Winter is the time of dreams.

Supporting Girls

Women’s Expressive Theater has an ongoing series to help teen age girls accept who they are and not try to match peer expectations. It is called the Risk Taker’s Series. About once a month during the school year a group of about 150 teen agers gather to watch a film that relates to […]

On Safari In Brooklyn

Using the word ’safari’ might seem strange for a walk in Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY. However there are three families of swans along with many varieties of ducks, geese, and gulls in the lake in Prospect Park.

Recently I was reminded how clearly babies perceive and how intensely they feel.

I recently photographed Milon, a writer and editor of the Guide to a Healthy Birth, who is planning to give birth in her own home […]

With Labor Day weekend approaching, some wonderful couples signed up for the End of Summer Glow sessions at Bump Brooklyn. I photographed both indoors and outdoors. Outdoors we toured the Brooklyn neighborhood where Bump is located on Bergen St. near Flatbush Ave. Here are some of our photographs from that day. Outdoors […]
