Road Trip!  I grabbed my sister and we drove to Purchase.  Easiest trip ever I might add.  We arrive and are greeted by the most beautiful Mama to be.  She was gorgeous, the house was gorgeous and we all had such a fun time.  We giggled and so did hubby.  I have to say that these two are going to be the most wonderful parents.  They are so warm and inviting.  The love they share is really something to witness.

Enjoy:

I was so honored that she asked me to photograph her newborn as well.  Here is a glimpse of their sweet girl…

Welcome to the world

I wanted to share with you a truly amazing session.  A session that wasn’t supposed to happen actually.  Things always have a way of falling into place.  I believe that wholeheartedly.  The energy, the love, the fun……it all came together on this day.

I hope you enjoyed these as much as I enjoyed taking them. I keep scrolling back to see them again!

I’d like to wish everyone a peaceful and productive new year ahead. Thank you to all of you for supporting Earth & Skye Photography and for passing my name around to family and friends. 2011 has been a wonderful year and with a full heart, I thank you.

Certainly a highlight of 2011.  We received tickets from my Mom to go see The Lion King.  I was super excited to bring the Monsta.  He loves all things that have to do with plays, stages, shows, puppets etc.

Off to NYC via LIRR

I can’t stop looking at this kid – hence the two looking out the window shots.

He felt pretty important handing over the tickets to the conductor.

First time in a subway.  He was intimidated at first and needed the security of Daddy.  He warmed up to the crowds of people after a few minutes though.

By the time we were to the big escalators, he was a pro at dodging and walking briskly.

Stay tuned for part II

I had the pleasure of meeting sweet Stephen this past weekend.  He is 3.5 weeks new to the world and has wonderful parents.  K & S welcomed me into their beautiful home and it was so relaxed and fun.  I hope you enjoy this little sneak peek.

He had such great skin tone and look at all that hair!  Love it.

He was perfect in every way.

In the middle of all the Holiday frenzy, I find myself searching for bits of calm.

It could be five minutes or less.

Usually less.

Whenever I can grab onto these precious minutes…

I do.

This image of Monsta was taken a month ago.  I haven’t even gone through my pictures from when we stayed on Lake Ariel in Pa. but I remembered this one.  While I was taking it, I had the finished look in my mind.

THIS makes me calm and happy.

Just wonderfully busy.  Will be posting many holiday sessions soon.

To do list:  Have baby.

That is what was written on the chalk board in the kitchen.  T & R welcomed me into their beautiful home in Bayside, Queens and let me pal around with their precious little girl for hours.  Thanks so much guys!

What a fun session this was. The girls, as you can see, are as cute as buttons and their Mama is beautiful and sweet. We frolicked in gardens and made each other laugh. That is what I’m about. No stress, relaxed and FUN. I love it. Thanks girls for a wonderful morning.

Book your Fall session now!

I had the pleasure of meeting up with an old friend this weekend because she asked me if we could do a session with her son.  He is turning six you know.  We had done four year old photos but things have changed since then.  P is a big boy now and entering 1st grade.  He is full of smiles and loves to goof around so we chased each other, played and well…goofed around in beautiful gardens.  What more could you ask for. 

I’ve known Mama for quite some time now as we used to work together back in the late 90′s.  She is a good, smart person and her son follows suit.  I’m so happy for her.  She has got a great little family.

Well, here is your sneak peek of your beautiful boy Ems!
