Boys Rule – Albany, NY Family Photographer

Boys Rule this house for sure!!! 

This makes boy number 3 for this wonderful family!  I really love when I get to work with families as they grow.  I’ve taken maternity pictures, family pictures, and newborn shots with them – so obviously I’ve gotten to see first hand how they’ve expanded!  It’s honestly so much fun for me to see the enormous changes that go on with little ones – and how much a new sibling can resemble an older one!  Can not wait for them to view their full gallery…

Playful – Albany, NY Family Photographer

When I asked these two what they wanted their session to be, and the images to portray… the answer was simple!  Playful!!!  They just wanted to have fun, and to capture them being them.   Not much better than that!  We used a bunch of locations, and really came away with a beautiful gallery – enjoy!

Beautiful Belly – Albany, NY Maternity Photographer

Look at this belly!!!! Many of use have been there – and remember
what an amazing time being pregnant was. Question… Do you have portraits of your belly? Do you remember what you really looked like? I’m one of the guilty ones if you can believe it. I never photographed, or had my belly photographed with either of my pregnancies.
Such a mistake! Pregnancy is truly a miracle. A perfect stage to photograph….you’ll be happy you have the images to remember, and to show your little one when they’re older! The perfect
gift to give to an expecting mom.

Get the Photos You Really Want…. Albany, NY High School Senior Photographer

Get the Photos You Really Want…. Albany, NY High School Senior Photographer
 
 
Spring of High School Seniors  and Juniors is an exciting time.  The Seniors are wrapping up their last year, and preparing to head off to college in the fall.  Juniors are looking forward to be in that “Senior” class!  Most people can probably look back with great memories from this point in their lives.  So much is happening, many transitions – and really discovering who you are. Custom Senior portraits are
a fabulous way to memorialize this stage!  A handful of students from high schools in and around the Albany, NY area have participated in my Photo Rep Program for Senior Portraits.  The biggest goal of these sessions is to show students and families what senior portraits really can be!  Multiple locations, clothing changes, incorporation of interests, sports, hobbies – all elements that create a collection of images showcasing students at this very point in their lives.  You just can not get that with 10 minutes in a studio, wearing the same thing all of your other classmates have worn!!  Celebrate this time in your life, or your child’s life.  You’ll be glad you did…. 
Inquire today about scheduling a Custom Senior Portrait Session.

This Is The Time – Albany, NY Family Photographer

Do you have a current family portrait?  Most people’s answer to that is probably NO — life is busy right?  Unfortunately, we often let things like documenting
our families slip by – month after month or year after year.  Always with the intention of doing it – but never quite making it enough of a priority to schedule and
coordinate it.

hitls20-copyhitls9-copy
A few weeks ago, I was honored to photograph this family.  We had talked a few times about getting something scheduled – but it just never happened.
The original intention was to capture grandparents with their grandchildren and children.  And if you take a look at these – you see 2 of those three categories
covered.  About a month earlier the grandfather passed away suddenly.  Now I know this family personally – and one of the things that crossed my mind
shortly after was….”we never did those pictures”.   In talking with his daughter, the same thought had run through her mind as well.  It’s so hard to loose
members of our family.  And people often tell you – your memories will help you through – they’ll provide some comfort in the time to come.  Granted our brains
are wonderful tools for that – but they can’t produce a physical image that you can hold in your hands.  There’s something very powerful about holding a portrait in
your own two hands – or staring into it with your eyes as you remember the person who is no longer with you.  Portraits have a wonderful magic
to them – they freeze those moments in time – and are often capable of bringing you right back to the scene you are looking at.  Sometimes to the
point that we can really feel the emotion that was occurring or hear the voices and conversation exactly at that point.   That is invaluable.

So back to the question…. Do you have a current family portrait?  What are you waiting for?  This is the time – you will love your images forever – and they
will immortalize your family — don’t wait….  you’ll be grateful you have them.

We Wish You a Merry Christmas… Albany, NY Family Photographer

Every year, I have a good handful of clients who choose to have me do their holiday photo cards.  I love pulling these together, and getting them the look and message they want to send out to their family and friends!  All cards are customized to the photo used – and are original creations.  Here’s a handful from this season!  Enjoy :)

College Roomates – Albany, NY Children’s Photographer

This beautiful Mom and I were roommates in College!    We met our Freshman year – during preseason for Field Hockey at Oneonta State!  During our Junior year,  a few of us decided to move off campus and lived together on Main Street.  She was from this area originally, and after being out of state for a while, has moved back and has a beautiful family.  We’ve been meaning to get together – for way too long… so it was so wonderful that she asked me to take their portraits this fall.  Funny how time, even a lot of time can go by, and when you’ve been close to someone in the past, it all comes flooding back.  We’ve spent some time reminiscing – and are even now planning a get together with some of our old friends. 

She’s exactly the kind of Mom I thought she would be – Amazing :)  

So glad we’ve reconnected…

This was the first time I’d been to 5 Rivers in Albany, NY.  I had heard about it when I was at St. Rose for grad. school – but had never been there!  I know there’s more to it than what I saw, but the walk we took was beautiful!  Great for kids of all ages.   These photos were a present for “Mom’s” Birthday!  I was honored to photograph them, and can not wait to load their gallery later this week!

Up, Up and Away – Albany, NY Children Photographer

Balloons just always result in great smiles.  I think everyone can say they’ve let quite a few go themselves, and for a child – watching it float up into the sky is truely magical!  The wonder of how high it will go, where it will end up, what adventures it will have, how long it’ll be before you can’t see it any longer… oh the fun!  

These balloons were sent off in honor of something, so the excitement was ellivated!  A wonderful session, and adorable family.
