Asher, 17 months, & Jacob, 8 – Cleveland Photographer

Posted in Babies, Children, Cleveland, Families, Pets, tagged , , , , , , , , , on February 14, 2011| Leave a Comment »

I was so excited that this family was up for a full-on snowy session! And they brought along their gorgeous Bernese Mountain Dog, Apollo (my second puppies-in-snow shoot for the week!). I think 8-year-old Jacob was excited to be able to sled and play, while 17-month-old Asher was a little unsure of the knee-deep snow… Apollo had a blast and was not the easiest to corral, but we managed to get a bunch of great family shots nonetheless. And they were all great sports about the chilly temps and lack of plowed paths!

Here’s one of my faves:

Steve, Asher, Rayna, Jacob, & Apollo

I love this moment:

This one, too (Asher’s first time sledding!) 🙂

Asher didn’t really mind the snow when he had a sled to sit on:

Chad, Dana, and Family – Cleveland Photographer

Posted in Cleveland, Families, Pets, Teens, tagged , , , , , , , on February 9, 2011| Leave a Comment »

To complement Chad’s bar mitzvah photos, his mom Marla and I set up a little shoot at their house to make sure their beloved dogs made it into the bar mitzvah album, too! Puppies Oliver, Max, and Pete were gorgeous and so sweet. Even my dog-fearing assistant husband thought little Ollie was adorable. Max is the fun-loving big brother type, and Pete is the senior in the crew… mostly chills off to the side, overseeing the hyper young ones.

We shockingly got all three dogs in one shot, albeit not posing perfectly (which I like better anyway) 🙂 – Here’s the whole crew:

Chad, Marla, Dana, and Seth

We had a gorgeously snowy, mild day, so we spent most of the time outside playing in the snow (and laughing really hard).

Pete didn’t feel like running around that day, but Oliver and Max had fun with Dana and Chad:

The dogs had so much fun (including Pete with his rest on the couch):

We brought Pete outside for a bit, but he wasn’t really into it. I love this shot, though. 🙂

One last photo of the cute brother and sister!

Thank you, Chad, Dana, Marla, Seth, and doggies for an awesome wintry shoot! It was too much fun!

Liora Keren, 6 days old – Cleveland Newborn Photographer

Posted in Babies, Children, Cleveland, Families, Newborns, tagged , , , , , , , , on February 7, 2011| 1 Comment »

Heading back to FL, but first I have to post about this little one…

On Friday, I photographed beautiful, tiny 6-day-old Liora Keren (before her baby naming, actually, so big sister Eliana was calling her “Tallulah” after a favorite character in one of her books). She was so alert, adorable, and petite, and the house was filled with coziness and love – one of the things I love about going to families’ homes for newborn shoots.

Just look at this precious munchkin!

Liora

She didn’t love every minute of our session, but I love this shot. Is it wrong that I find something really sweet about a crying newborn?

Liora

Some sister snuggle time (on a baby blanket that’s been in the family for 30 years):

Eliana & Liora

Lots of love for Liora… (Note that Elie is reading her “big sister” book – so cute.)

Liora & family

Congratulations to Alyson, Matt, Elie (my name and birthday twin!), and family on sweet baby Liora Keren!

Chad’s Bar Mitzvah – Cleveland Photographer

Posted in Cleveland, Events, Families, Teens, tagged , , , , , , , , on February 2, 2011| 1 Comment »

The main reason for this trip to Cleveland in not-so-toasty February was to photograph Chad’s bar mitzvah this past weekend. (I’m loving the events lately – a New Year’s wedding in Boston, a Sarasota Sweet 16, and now the Cleveland bar mitzvah – such great times!)

Chad and his family were amazing – so welcoming, fun, and sweet… and when did 13-year-olds become so awesome?! They partied from early evening until late in the night, dancing up a storm (I especially loved the impromptu “Dougie” performance by three of Chad’s friends – someone please share a video) and celebrating with Chad.

Here’s a collage of some highlights:

And a shot of Chad and his family after the morning services:

Excited to photograph the family session over the weekend!

Arianna, 4 months – Cleveland Photographer

Posted in Babies, Cleveland, Families, tagged , , , , , on February 1, 2011| 2 Comments »

I’ve been excited to photograph Arianna since the fall, and I finally got my camera on her as my first portrait session of this Cleveland trip. Photographing her and her parents, Yana and Nate, was so easy and fun. We got this great shot within the first minute of shooting… Ridiculous!

Arianna

How amazing are these leg warmers?

Last one for now… I am in love with this family photo:Nate, Arianna, and Yana

🙂 Loved this shoot!

Vivi’s Sweet 16 – Sarasota Photographer

Posted in Events, Families, Sarasota area, Teens, tagged , , , , , , , on January 25, 2011| 1 Comment »

Last week, I posted some shots of gorgeous Vivi before her big Sweet 16 party. Here are a few more from last week’s session:

I love looking at these two shots of the family back to back:  🙂

Now for Vivi’s party Saturday night… Everyone had so much fun, they extended the party until 2am! There was food and dancing, dancing, dancing, with two really great DJs, a performance by Simple as Surgery, and late-night dance tunes by a live band accompanying cotillón (or “crazy hour”), a Latin party tradition.

Here’s a collage of some of my favorite shots (everyone wore black and white, and Vivi had two purple dresses :-)). (That’s a virgin sour apple martini, by the way…)

Happy Sweet 16, Vivi! – Sarasota Photographer

Posted in Families, Sarasota area, Teens, tagged , , , , , on January 21, 2011| 1 Comment »

In preparation for her upcoming Sweet 16, we shot some photos of Vivi and her family by their gorgeous home. I’m excited to photograph her big party this weekend!

She swears to me she’s never done any modeling, but I find that hard to believe, no??

Vivi

I mean, come on…

Vivi

Vivi

The camera loves her, as they say.

Her family’s not too bad, either. 🙂 So fun and easy to photograph – I love it!

One last shot of Vivi (for now). I’m obsessed.

Sheesh, she’s gorg.

Saving the photos of Vivi in her super-fun dress to keep it as a surprise for the guests. 🙂

Happy weekend!

Remy, 3 – Sarasota Photographer

Posted in Children, Families, Sarasota area, tagged , , , , on January 18, 2011| 1 Comment »

You may remember Remy’s first photo on my blog from almost exactly one year ago. And some other shots here and here. He is so sweet, handsome, and ridiculously cute. Talia’s no stranger to my camera, either, since I’ve photographed her face no less than 100 times for her leather accessories line, Green Apple Accessories. We finally did a family shoot, back at Selby Gardens (where we did Remy’s first session), this past weekend.

How cute are they?

Shelby, Remy, & Talia

I can’t really stand how cute Rem is in this one. And those eyes are just too much:

Remy

A couple more favorites… Rem in his glory:

Loved photographing this trio. 🙂 Glad we finally made it happen, T!

Sienna, 6 days old – Sarasota Newborn Photographer

Posted in Babies, Children, Families, Newborns, Sarasota area, tagged , , , , , , , , on January 5, 2011| 1 Comment »

Our good friends Steve and Karin – and their adorable 2-year-old daughter Summer (some photos of Summer in May ’10 here) – just welcomed Sienna Faith to the family. We met the precious, gorgeous little one at 6 days old. We knew they’d have a cute one, and Sienna is scrumptious. Perfect newborn model, too!

Steve had a photo in mind that he really wanted to capture Sienna’s tinyness. Here it is:

Sienna

Isn’t she edible and so, so pretty?

Sienna

My favorite family shots… Summer doesn’t quite know what to make of Sienna quite yet, but she does know how to smile for a photo! 🙂 (And Sienna’s little mouth just makes me nuts with how cute it is!)

Sienna, Summer, Karin, and Steve

Congratulations, Karin, Steve, and Summer! We are already in love with Sienna. 🙂
