I had the pleasure of photographing Sophie and her lovely family in their bright and picturesque home a couple weeks after she came home from the hospital. We did a variety of shots from newborn portraits to family photos to intimate shots in her nursery. Love getting to capture the special moments and memories of those first few weeks with a newborn lifestyle session!

Dossett Family Holiday Mini Session
I have been photographing the Dossett family for many years and have seen their son Calvin grow over the years! This year we meet at the Ivy Arch Bridge in Delaware Park for a holiday mini session. Even though I know Calvin and have photographed him since his hospital stay when he was born, it takes some time to get him to warm up to having his photograph taken. But we always have fun and we always get there! This year the family was bigger with a new puppy!
Schimenti Family Portrait Session
I have photographed the Schimenti family many times over the years, it’s fun photographing a family every year and seeing the kids grow up! I’m not just saying this because I’m a photographer (well I am a bit and probably also partly saying this as a mother) but make a point to do family photos every single year. It’s so valuable and worth the effort that might seem like a lot at the time. We had a good time doing a pretty quick session at Glen Park before the sun set on a chilly November day. Sometimes you only have so much time, between fading light, freezing people, and energized kids. Glen Park is a great location for a shorter session as there are so many different looking spots to shoot and they are all so close to each other.
Guarino Family Holiday Mini Session
I did two holiday mini days this year at the Ivy Arch Bridge in Delaware Park and it was fun seeing how different the sessions looked between color schemes and lighting. Love the rich colors of this session with the adorable and stylish Guarino family. We did family photos in a couple locations and a few different groupings (mom and sons, dad and sons, boys alone) plus just had some fun running around and playing with leaves and twigs.
Petty Family Holiday Mini Session
Had a great time hanging out with families all day at the Ivy Arch Bridge in Delaware Park this year for holiday minis! The Petty family were an adorable bunch. A little of encouragement and warm up were needed for the littlest member, Simon, but not much! Mom of the family Becky gushes, “He’s got the best freakin’ smile in the world.”
