Smile {ny - long island child photographer}

I met with this sweet family a while back, however, the images we captured were for a gift for these gorgeous children's Grandma. I am so excited to finally share some of them with you. Looking through them now I can not help but smile...I love when I walk away from a session knowing I truly connected with the family and each child. It is so much fun for me and I know we truly captured their very own unique essence. Thanks again to this amazing family and all their cousins too! ;)

Thank You!

Watching my children grow everyday and evolve into these beautiful little people leaves me at a loss for words. Their spirit shines so bright in even the simplest of moments and leaves me with tears in the corner of my eyes. I have so much to be thankful for and my life has been blessed in countless ways. It is from my pregnancy with them that I found myself with Cardiomyopathy and yet it is also because of them that I am so thankful that it was me who was diagnosed with it and not my babies.

Since finding out that children are susceptible to Cardiomyopathy I have been determined to do my part in helping find answers. Last fall I posted that I was going to donate 10% of my prints profits to The Children's Cardimyopathy Foundation, and today with the help of so many of you, I did! So thank you everyone who ordered prints and holiday cards. Together we were able to help out an organization that is close to my heart. If you have not already please visit their Facebook page and become a fan in hopes to help spread the word and find a cure. If you would like to help even further please visit http://extraordinarymeasuresthemovie.com/#/quilt The movie, Extraordinary Measures, is giving away $10,000 to a charity doing extraordinary things. Please click on the CCF video (currently on page 3) and place your vote.

My heart goes out to all the children and families of children who are dealing with this condition. Always.

And because no post is complete with out a picture....my girls caught after a sisterly wrestle! ;)

Change {ny - long isalnd child photographer}

To parents many times it is "bittersweet". In just 6-7 months a child can go from this...

...to this.

Children are simply amazing!
