Meeting itty bitty babies is always a joy for me of course, but when you add two cute siblings into the mix you know the session is going to be GREAT!!! And this session is no exception, this family was wonderful and a pleasure to work with.

I am just lucky to meet such beautiful itty bitty babies. This little princess was a true joy to photograph and oh so cute, it all started with mom’s maternity session, she was certainly a glowing mother to be.

All puckered up….B E A U T I F U L ! ! !

Summertime fun

So summer is coming to an end, well summer vacation that is because we all know it pretty much feels like summer almost all year long down hear in sunny South Florida. It has been a few busy months for us here keeping the kiddos busy all the while still doing what I love, photography! So it’s time to get back to blogging and sharing some of my recent work. So how about I start with two very sweet girls. I have had the pleasure of working with big sister for some time now, I certainly look forward working with the newest addition.

OH baby!!!!

Loving all these newborns and what could be better than baby #2 from a very lovely family. Of course big sister is such a blast, to think I photographed her since she was in her mommy’s belly and quite a few times after that, what a great helper and what great laughs. Well little sister was just as good and sweet as can be, and I am curious to see if she will be a beautiful goldilocks as big sister.

a day of mini sessions

ritz — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 04:49:33 +0000

Here is something new and different for me, “mini sessions”. I was delighted to meet so many cute kids all in one day. Thanks to Rebecca and Cecilia, owners of the Children’s Exchange located in South Miami, I was asked to conduct a day of mini sessions, lots of fun and lots of pictures too. If you are expecting a baby or are looking for some very posh items for your children then you must visit this store and while there you can catch a glimpse of my photography artwork displayed throughout the store. Here are just a few cute images from our day of mini sessions…

double delight

ritz — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 22:29:38 +0000

Being the Brooklyn girl that I am you would be quite surprised at just how much I LOVE going to the beach; so when I am asked to do a session on the beach I am just giddy with excitement. I was so happy to finally meet these two little guys after mom and I had to reschedule due to some rain. While these two little cuties were identical twins you can certainly see their distinct personalities shining through, but I will admit, I had some difficulty telling them apart.

familiar faces

I just love love LOVE working with repeat clients!!! For the most part, it gives me great pride in knowing that they continue to turn to me to capture their children through their many phases of childhood. I am eternally grateful to these families for welcoming me into their homes, or better yet, their lives so that I can capture them just as they are. I have many days that are crazy busy but I must say, even on the craziest day if I recieve an email or a phone call from a previous client; it’s as if a long time friend is calling to say “hello”. With that said, I just have to share this very special family…And to you Mrs. “D”, you are so very blessed with your beautiful family, and most importantly, you are blessed with a great sense of humor, your emails/FB messages make me smile, and even laugh at times when you just say the funniest things. Its clients like you that remind me just how fortunate I am to do what I do. So to you and the many clients with whom I have worked with repeatedly, I say “THANK YOU!!!”

1 + 1 = true bliss

ritz — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 04:16:40 +0000

So I admit, when I hear the word “twin” I immediately think “identical”, boy have I learned how not think that way after working with quite a few set of twins as of late, and these two precious babies take the cake. I was blown away at how little Miss “S” looked so much like dad and how little Mr. ”F” looked so much like mom, the most beautiful thing EVER!!!! What a gift!!! I was even more thrilled to see the goodies mom had purchased in time for our session. Its been a month of newborns with a few toddlers in between, am I in heaven or what?!?!

lovely expectations

ritz — Wed, 19 May 2010 19:05:14 +0000

I am excited and cannot wait to meet baby #2 of this very lovely family. I am very familiar with baby # 1, he is a charmer and a cutie…but most importantly, he was my very first newborn model. Gosh I lost count of the number of sessions I have had with him, but it has been a treat to watch him grown. And of course, mom looks amazing with her baby bump.
