Spring is one of my favorite times of the year. The weather starts to break, flowers begin to bloom and well, both of my girls’ birthdays are in the spring. This year, it wasn’t so much packed with shooting as it was with personal adventures.
As a runner, I eagerly registered my husband and I for every race within a 30 mile radius. In addition to a personal best of under 8 minute miles at a local 10K, I ran my fastest half marathon ever at the ING NYC Half Marathon. This was also the first time my girls came to spectate at one of my races. I also ran the Ragnar Relay New England with my husband and 5 friends. In case you aren’t familiar with the insanity that is Ragnar Relay, it’s a 2 day relay race that spans about 200 miles. Most people run this as a 12 person team. We, however, thought it would be “more fun” to be an “Ultra” team. Ultra teams only have 6 runners (and 1 FABULOUS van driver/cheerleader). I ran 40 miles over the course of 2 days with no sleep while battling the stomach bug. Then, less than 12 hours later……
WE WENT TO DISNEY WORLD!!!! Isn’t that what all great champions do though? ; ) And yes, clearly my husband and I are completely insane! This was our girls’ first trip to Disney and quite possibly the most fulfilling experience of my life. The magic in their eyes that entire week was so amazing and I will never forget the pure joy our family shared.
Now, onto work… Here are some of my favorite spring shots.

As you probably have noticed, I didn’t blog much in 2011. It’s been such an incredible year both personally and professionally and I found myself quite busy. So much so, that blogging got pushed to the back burner and I just never found the time to do it. One of my resolutions for 2012 is to blog more and share more of my work.
Over the next few weeks, I’m going to post some of my favs from the year. Here’s the first installment…. A look back at the first few months of 2011. Enjoy!

I’d once again like to thank Melissa Wilson of MW Photography for helping second shoot this wedding with me and for manning the photo booth. It was a huge hit. The guests totally got into it and it made for lots of laughs!

I met Laura several years ago when she began working with my husband. I liked her so much, I hired her to come work for me! Though she’s since changed career paths, thanks to the wonders of facebook, we have kept in touch. When she contacted me to shoot her wedding, I was moved and beyond excited! Laura is such a fun, energetic, and genuinely good person, I knew her wedding day would reflect that. And so it did!
With the help of Melissa Wilson of MW Photography, the sentiment and emotion of the day will forever live on. You can’t ask for a more easy going, up for anything, amazingly photogenic couple than these two!
Laura & Bobby, thank you so much for sharing your day with me. I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness.

Just before Labor Day (wow has it been that long since I’ve blogged a session?) I shot some family photos for a really fun family at Tod’s Point. It is really an incredibly beautiful location. I can’t wait to shoot there again.

It was the first day of preschool for my girls today. They were both super excited and could not wait to go!

This morning my husband ran the Lightfoot Sam Elpern Memorial Half Marathon. This was his second half and his last event before we run the NYC Marathon in November with Team Hole in the Wall. The girls and I were there cheering him on. He did an amazing job. He beat his Fairfield time by almost 20 minutes completing the course in 1:45:11. I am so proud of him!
If you haven’t already done so, please consider sponsoring our NYC run. It’s a great cause! The money raised will provide a seriously ill child the opportunity to get out of their hospital room for a week and just be a kid again at a Hole in the Wall Camp. You can sponsor us by simply clicking here and clicking on the SUPPORT OUR TEAM button above our photo. All donations are secure and tax deductible. Your support is greatly appreciated!

It’s hard to believe it’s mid September already! This summer absolutely FLEW by! As the temperatures begin to drop, people begin thinking about booking family or holiday portrait sessions. Ordinarily, I do them right up until the first week of December. This year, however, I am scaling back. With the exception of the couple sessions already booked, I will not be shooting during the months of November and December. I will use these months to get caught up on editing, updated my online galleries, designing studio albums and most importantly, enjoying the holidays with my family.
If you are still holding onto a contract for an October date, please send that back no later than September 23rd, as I leave for vacation shortly thereafter and need a couple days to update my calendar, confirm details with clients and get myself organized before I leave. Please keep in mind, I can not hold a date without a signed contract and retainer in hand. Thanks!

After receiving an album for a wedding I did that I was quite frankly embarrassed to give to my client, I began a frantic search for a new album vendor. I learned quickly, you get what you pay for. While these are significantly more expensive than I intended to spend on an album, they are absolutely amazing and well worth the money. They are so substantial and beautifully crafted. The style is classic, simple and timeless. I think that is very important when it comes your wedding album.
Here are some photos I snapped this morning of the sample the vendor sent me. Please note: the photos in the album are not taken by me. They are taken by Zielenbach Photography. I’m working on my studio sample this weekend. I’ll be sure to post some shots of mine once it arrives.
