Family #2 ~ This little cutie just happens to be a referral from family #1. I love referrals they are the best compliment. They are especially awesome because I get to photograph gorgeous little faces like this one!

family on friday l buffalo ny photographerMarch 11th, 2011Ok so this is going to be another new feature on my blog. I am pretty much an open book with my family. My family is my life – as I am sure it is for you too. So I am hoping that each Friday I will either share an older picture that has a lot of meaning to me (and I’ll talk a bit about why of course) or a picture from that week (this is really to make me more diligent about photographing my kids, you know about the shoemakers kids right? haha). I hope that you all enjoy following along and seriously, since it’s my family, really I love to see lovin’ about my kids so share and comment like crazy. It just makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. First up – our vacation to Long Island last summer. Oh how I am deeply craving summer and a trip to the ocean. I grew up on Long Island and as my husband says. . .”You can take the girl off Long Island but you can’t take the Long Island out of the girl.” Don’t get me wrong I really love Buffalo, but my heart, it’s on Long Island. Jude’s hair started to go curly that summer and it was hysterical to see. Especially since the rest of us are pin straight. It’s one of my most favorite images of him for that reason. Then my daughter Kayla just totally candid dancing on the small waves as they came in and tickled her feet. Justin collecting sand and water for his castle. Oh my, its like looking through these brings me back to the actual moment. Have you ever had an experience like that? I hope you have – I hope you have that when you see images I may have taken of your family!

fun news l buffalo ny child baby portraitsAugust 18th, 2010Just a fun little bit of news to share this morning. I entered a couple of my favorite images into the photography contest at the Erie County Fair this year. My portrait entry received “best of” and was in consideration for the tri-color ribbon – yay! My pictorial entry received an honorable mention. It made trekking down to the fair 8.5 months pregnant with 4 kids and a husband in tow totally worth it. Early November sessions are currently booking and October is extremely limited with just one weekend session left – please book now! Here are a couple of iphone pictures from last night at the fair. . . . “Best Of” – Portrait Honorable Mention – Pictorial |
