City Kids.

Saturday afternoon in Philly! I have been partnering with a wonderful boutique located at 113 South 13th Street, Scarlet Fiorella. As a part of the 2 year anniversary of the Midtown Village location I photographed some small customers who frequent the boutique. We had a great time!

More to follow on the blog and galleries for viewing as well.

8:30 AM this past Saturday…

This session had 2 purposes….some family photos, images of the very cute Sara and a headshot for Cyndi who has a book being released in the near future.

The weather was perfect at 7:30 am…and of course…as the minutes ticked away the clouds rolled in and increasingly became thicker. We had to work quickly! The session was fun and I enjoyed following Sara as she toddled from one end of the bridge to the other, many times. What a cutie!

Sneak Peek!

Love x 3 = An Enormous Amount of Love

This past friday I traveled to New Jersey and spent the afternoon with Adam, Sophia and Luke and photographed them in celebration of their 1st birthdays in May. They are triplets and were born early. 

I arrived to a home alive with the hustle of baby feedings, diaper changes, caregivers and nursing care. Most of all….the home was alive with such amazing love for these precious little ones.

The time spent with this family touched me deeply. I will never forget the afternoon and the impression these three miracles left on my heart.

A is for Adorable Ava.

The day was perfect for a session at the park! I am thrilled that spring is here.  Yay!

Ava was so funny to watch. This little one has a strong spirit and reminds me of my oldest daughter, determined and……determined. I have photographed Ava since she was tiny, watching her grow through our sessions is wonderful. She is precious.  :)

Here are a few from our time together today Megan.

Ike.

Wonderful spring morning spent with a wonderful family. Once again…and I say this often. I just love what I do. Meeting and spending time with these families blesses me in so many ways. 

Ike is a very curious little boy. As we were photographing there were some sheep and cows near by. He was so interested! Just an adorable man. He made me :)

Gabby.

My beautiful Niece Gabby is graduating from high school! When my sister in law Dawn called and asked if I would photograph Gabby I was thrilled. They drove from the depths of NJ for our session. 

The day was perfect to photograph in the studio and on the farm. We had a great time and were entertained by Ian’s romp around the studio in his undies. Hey! He is proud of those big boy underwear. I am so temped to upload that one shot…but I won’t. lol

Gab and Dawn…here are my fav’s so far! xoxoxoxox

The following photo is very special and I’ll tell you why. We almost lost Dawn last year. She had a catistrophic reaction to an antibiotic. This mother and daughter have been through so much together. The image shows the true unconditional love and acceptance they have for each other. Photographing them together was emotional, we all wept after this image was taken. 

For those who have teenagers…especially young women…understand the ups and downs that come with this relationship.  I certainly do. Dawn and Gabby are an inspiration. I love you both.

Scarlet Fiorella ~ Blog Entry 3

Working with Michelle Cimillo, owner of boutique Scarlet Fiorella has been wonderful! (Be sure to scroll to see previous entries) I took a good look at her store today and am seriously worried that I am going to spend all of my money there. Between the adorable children’s clothing and home decor I started a mental list of my must haves. The purple sheepskin is on the top! If in the city be sure to stop by and see the boutique. She is located at S. 13th and Samson in the heart of Midtown Village.  High recommendation from me! She is having an big anniversary event next Saturday, April 26th. More info to follow so check back.

Michelle needed a couple of little models so I volunteered my children. Ferron was able to model this past weekend. This morning I packed up ”El Niño” and off we went to Philadelphia for his shoot. It was fun…chasing a  3 year old through the streets changing him on the run. He is so funny. Ian was so excited to to the “big town and see Chelle”. I think he did a good job for a little squirt. When we were finished and on the road he was asleep before we passed the Art Museum, in all of 6 minutes. 

Here are some images from today…
