Christmas Album for Nancy and her Family

Christmas Album for Nancy and her Family

Just wanted to give a shoutout to Nancy for booking a fantastic family Christmas photo session with me at the beautiful William Goodrich Jones state forest near The Woodlands, Texas. The Houston fall foliage in November was stunning and the blue sky reflected in the lake waters made for some truly breathtaking photos.  I can't wait to share these gorgeous images!

Family Mini Session in Pittsburgh for Lauren Perlis

Mini sessions in Pittsburgh’s Mellon Park.

It was a pleasure to meet Laurel Perils and her family on a bright sunny morning in Mellon Park. The kids really enjoyed running around and the parents’ task was to react quickly when an opportunity to pose as a family presented itself. I had to be fast enough to find myself in the right place at the right time, expose, compose, focus and press click. No pressure. ))

Family Mini sessions at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.

Have you ever seen a 9-months old baby smiling and looking at the camera for all 30 minutes: no tears, not even a trace of dissatisfaction, just a pure bundle of joy? I now have! It’s Leanne Eliott’s little son. We were able to create so many photographic memories for this family, what you see here is just a small fraction of their gallery. :-)

Winter Mini Session at Phipps for Noah Robbins and his family

Family Mini sessions at Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.

It was the second time I photographed Noah Robbins, his parents Michaela and Dave.  It was great to re-connect with them again. Noah made great progress and looked strong, happy and handsome! This time the family came with the grandparents, all dressed in themed, beautifully created costumes - Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Captain Hook, John Darling and Mr Smee.  We had a blast creating a story for their family album.
