This was my first  session inside a church. I have been really wanting to do communion pictures in a church, as I have a vivid memory of a photo my father took of my brother on his communion day, under the stained glass window in our church, kneeling in a pew, hands clasped in prayer, the light pouring in onto the highlights in his beautiful brown hair, creating a halo of light around his head. An image that has stayed with me for oh, about 33 years now!!! I wanted so much to recreate it, as it was a stunning and beautiful document of a momentous childhood milestone. I didn't have the "good" camera on my own boy's communion day, something I'll always be sad about. But the good news is that the universe smiled down on me last week, providing me with this gorgeous child, N. and the light to make him look like heaven on earth. He had the sweetest temperament possible, so good, truly an angel. I could have worked with him all day long.....I really love these pictures. Thanks to his mom and dad for all of their help and great ideas, and I hope to be lucky enough to photograph the rest of their brood sometime!!!

I was so excited to visit the C. family again after shooting the Christmas card/birth announcement for the brand new baby N. and her big sister and brother. She was such a tiny, fragile newborn then- but look at her now! Her Christening is coming up and I was honored to document this big occasion in her life in this spectacular heirloom ensemble. I think she looks like a perfect little doll. She is such a beautiful, darling baby.... she has a personality like her mom, all sweetness and light. One thing I especially love about these pictures is how the design down the center of the dress matches the design on the pillow. Everything just looks so lush in the beautiful light from the windows.

Brooklyn Photographer Price Information

Price Information*

I am currently offering rights-released image packages. This means you hire me to shoot for a specific time frame, and then I provide you with "digital proofs" (low resolution images unsuitable for printing) on a flash drive that you provide me with. You choose your images based on your package, that I will color correct, do basic retouching on, and generally enhance to be print ready. I will then send them to you via email, with permission for unlimited personal use. 

You can use any photo service you wish, from Costco to your neighborhood photo finisher or one of the online services like Shutterfly.  Print them any size, make collages,  photo books, canvases. give as gifts, make digital frames, whatever you want.....forever!!! Or, for best quality control.... I can get your prints done with my own custom printer on the highest quality papers at very reasonable rates with outstanding, artful results.  

Depending on my shooting volume, I can usually get you your proofs in 10 days or less from the day of our shoot. If you need help or advice- don't hesitate- I have lots of resources and ideas to get you exactly what you want from our shoot. "Like" me on Facebook to be in the loop on my current specials.
