Tickle Monster

 Oh what fun! This family is full of energy and fun! We picked a beautiful Sunday morning to traipse around beautiful Green Lakes (along with all of walkers, joggers and dogs, too!). I'm excited to get the gallery ready... so many cute ones as I go through. Here are just a few that caught my eye! Many thanks for allowing me to capture your family again this year!

Grateful

This family was gifted a session by one of my clients. Through all the email exchanges I could tell Mom was going to be one sweet lady. Her tone and her words were so nice in the messages.  She told me a few times how excited she was to have booked the session. I was not disappointed when we finally met. I don't think the smile came off her face the entire time we were together. She is SO in love with her husband and son... and loves the two of them together. I love all three of them together! What a super family. I'm so grateful that we met. What a perfect day for a session! 

Three girls!

 What a sweet family. Three fun girls with a backyard oasis! We had a great time exploring and getting to know each other.

Can't wait to get your gallery ready -- lots of laughter and personality in the images!!

FUN family!

 Can't say enough about this fun family! Loved their energy and easy going nature. We had a perfect night to traipse around Franklin Square. Here are just a few of my faves from the night!

I like this image --- not sure why... funny and cute to me!

I love the laugh of the little guy. There was some really funny potty talk going on here!!

THANK YOU!!!! I was thrilled to do a session with your awesome family!

I love Seniors!

I have decided that I really enjoy working with high school seniors. Some are shy, some love the camera, some really get into it, others not so much, but either way it is fun and challenging to try to get through to their personality. And, as we all know, teenagers have a lot of personality!

I was lucky enough to have a senior session on a GORGEOUS day at their amazing home and property on Cazenovia Lake. This beautiful girl was a sweetheart... very kind and easy going. Her smile is so bright - just beautiful! Here are *just a few* of my many favorites... there are a million that I love! 

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I really enjoyed working with you and I wish you the best of luck in the months ahead --- life is yours for the taking!

Repeat

Another repeat client, love it when that happens!
Little brother changed the most, since he was just 6 months old when I last saw him... now at 18 months old he is obviously so different. Most notably, he is a walking machine (or running away from the camera machine!).
Big sister, as beautiful as ever: 

Love this little series.

Big sister was excited to show me her camera, so I put her to work.

Pretty eyes and eyelashes, like his sister.

Thanks so much for having me out again this year!

Time to go

 I was thrilled when I was asked to photograph this wonderful group of siblings again. I met them a couple of years ago and now they are bigger, taller and wiser -- big sister is getting ready to head to Rhode Island to finish her senior year of high school and do her freshman year of college all in one. She will leave behind these three silly brothers... I think she really will miss them, somewhere, deep down in her big toe. But, it sounds like she's ready to embrace independence and soar!

Best wishes pretty lady!

Thank you so much for letting me capture the last bit of summer and your beautiful family. Best of luck S!!!

Down on the farm

Lucky me!

I have been to this farm a couple of times now and every time I go I'm just amazed at the beauty of it. First, before I forget to mention it, the family who owns and operates this farm is just wonderful. The kids are two sets of twins and they couldn't be nicer, friendlier, and more down to earth kids. I really enjoyed hanging out with them.
There are so many animals that live here!! Domestic and farm animals alike! Dogs, cats, bunnies, chickens, cows (and more cows), and horses.
Here is just a quick sampling of our time together, which for me, was a great way to spend a beautiful evening. Many thanks!
