Gift to the Heart {ny - long island child and family photographer}

"A sister is a gift to the heart, a friend to the spirit, a golden thread to the meaning of life."

These gorgeous twin sisters stole my heart! They were so much fun and brought back some amazing memories of my own twin girls. Miss Snow White and Miss Belle have such a sweet spirit that just glowed from deep within. They are at a wonderful age of wonder and imagination and it warms my heart to think about all they have ahead of them...together as sisters, as twins and as individuals. From one parent of twins to another, you both are doing such a beautiful job. And knowing first hand that parenting twins can bring on challenges that one would not normally think about, the rewards are even greater and the most amazing blessing I could ever imagine. Thank you for sharing your wonderful family with me and I can not wait to get you the rest of your images!

Lovely {ny - long island family/child photographer}

I recently met with another truly lovely family. From the second they stepped out of their car to the moment we said our good byes I could not stop smiling. The radiant positive and fun energy they exude is so heart warming! These four siblings are so lucky to have one another and you can see in their eyes that they already know this...even at such a young age. These handsome twin brothers look out for their younger sisters in such a sweet way that was wonderful to witness. I am sure they have their moments as every sibling does...but its so amazing to see the love and admiration they all have for each other. Mom and Dad bless your heart for doing such an extraordinary job caring for your family, it is so easy to see their amazing nature comes from the two of you! Enjoy a few pictures for now and more to come soon! Thank you so much.


And I have to share this one too...the dynamics of this picture make me smile...look at all the different expressions!

Twins, Twins! {ny - long island child photographer}

A couple of weeks ago I had the chance to meet two handsome and very sweet twin brothers. They are very happy and full of life. I had so much fun with them and they sure kept me on my toes! ; ) I am still smiling just thinking about them. In a few of weeks these wonderful boys are about to begin a new journey that they are still too young to fully understand. They are going to become "big" brothers to two precious twin sisters! Yep, you heard me right! This family is doubly blessed TWICE with twins! What a true miracle. They are living out my secret wish of having another set (shhhh...don't tell my husband!). I have not met Daddy yet, but Mommy is stunning! Someone out there sure knows how amazing these parents are to grace them with such a beautiful gift not once, but twice. I do not know how Mommy is keeping up with 3 year old twin boys and only having a few short weeks left before her sweet babies are born, but she is and she does it with such grace.

Their incredible story will be on TLC and I will be sure to keep you updated as to when so you can check out this beautiful family! To my new little friends Mr. T and Mr. B, and Mommy too, I am honored to have met you! I wish you all the best and if there is anything I can do please let me know. In the meantime I hope you enjoy your sneak peak!

Pure Love and Lots of Laughs

One thing I have truly found to love about my "job" (it is so hard to call it a job when I love doing it so much! lol) is having the pleasure to meet such wonderful people! I recently met with a family that reminded me so much of my own. Enjoying life, each other and I am sure there isn't a day doesn't go by where they do not laugh with one another! Just from the little time they let me into their lives, I know of two quotes that seem to fit them perfectly as well:

"Unconditional love is loving your kids for who they are, not for what they do...it isn't something you will achieve every minute of every day. But it is the thought we must hold in our hearts every day." - Stephanie Marston
"The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother." - Henry Ward Beecher

Just look through these images and you will see so much love...and I couldn't leave out some of those laughs too! ;)

Cousins {ny-li child photographer}

"Cousins are friends that will love you forever."

I am in love with this shoot! These sweet cousins were so much fun and such well behaved children! To watch them interact with each other made my day...I can just picture them all together on holidays and 10 years down the road when they are all in school! How great it is to have such wonderful friends also as family. I was honored to be able to capture their sweet bond so one day they may look back and remember where it all started! I can not wait to finish going through the images of these gorgeous cousins!
