Presense & Vitality

Recently I was reminded how clearly babies perceive and how intensely they feel.
I was spending time with a friend and her 8-month-old baby girl who is happy and always ready to play. Talking to her is a lot of fun as she listens and responds as if she could already speak.

While her mom was […]

From Mishmash to Lasting Memories: Part 2

Telling the stories of our lives is best done with photographs that inspire our memories and bring back cherished times. Recently, I did many photos of a simple afternoon of an 8 month old. We chose outdoors–the Brooklyn Promenade and a nearby playground. These were everyday sites that his mom and nanny […]

Doing Business Portraits For You and Your Profession

I like to think that a portrait, for use in conjunction with your business, should say more about you than a “head shot”. Recently when the colors of fall were at their most brilliant, I worked with Joyce of NYC School Help. The oranges, reds, and golden yellow were perfect for her business. […]

From Mishmash to Lasting Memories

In a recent conversation with Amy Abrams, one of the founders of In Good Company Workplaces, she stated, “My children are over documented but there is no storyline to the photos–just a mishmash.” She went on to say that her children aged 4 and 2, love looking at her wedding album with its organized […]

Choosing Natural Childbirth

I am writing this post to let everyone know about an organization, Choices in Childbirth, a not for profit organization whose mission is to help women make informed maternity care decisions.
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 […]

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 […]

Bump offers fashions that will take you from early pregnancy through to post pregnancy. Some of their styles, those beautiful wrap sweaters and […]

Love The Rain

Aislinn & Chris looked like any other couple walking in the rain on a Friday afternoon. But, why was there a flower in her hair when it is pouring?

Why are they turning and smiling?

Let’s start from the beginning of this couple’s plans for their wedding in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn at St. Paul’s Church. […]

From Infancy To Preteen And Growing: Adding To An Album

For an album designed to evoke memories, I begin with a platinum palladium contact print of an infant being introduced to the ocean for the first time. In this post I am not including the many other photographs we have done over the years. Some of these photos are already on my website. […]

A Romantic, Loving Wedding

Over Memorial Day weekend Jessica and Zev married on the hillside of Hildene overlooking the Green Mountains of Vermont. The day was one of those crystal clear blue sky days.

The children were enjoying their new dresses and added their brightness as they walked the garden path to the ceremony site.

With readings by their parents […]
