    kipper the puppy

    When I heard they were getting a new puppy after losing their beloved Henry, I knew I had to meet him and photograph him as soon as I could while he was tiny and fluffy! And he was sooooo fluffy!!!! I’m sure that by now he’s already so different looking and so much bigger. But this puppy phase was the best to capture!

    the leho family

    I’ve been photographing this family for years and years and I’m so sad this may be their last shoot with me. Well, it’s definitely their last shoot with me at this house. They just made a BIG move to Colorado, permanently. I’ve watched all the kids grow up and now I’ll probably only get to see their next adventures on Facebook. Hopefully, I’ll get to visit them out in their new home (I mean, pictures in Colorado? I’m so in!) and have some time to hang out with them. Wishing miss E the best of luck at Purdue starting next week! Wishing the whole family lots happiness in their new home!

    Brendan & Luke graduate

    More of my favorite Manhasset crew (and one of the families that I said I was just going to move into their pool house) had a graduation luncheon for their boys and families. Luckily, Brendan and I have finally come to an understanding. He loathes me taking his picture every year but this year we came to an agreement. Just in time too, because he was at like every Manhasset event I photographed in the last few weeks! Congratulations to both boys (whom I’ve been photographing since they were really little!) and good luck at Villanova and Michigan!! (And sorry to them for having to put with me for all these years and future apologies for the future too for more shoots, hopefully!)

    nate’s graduation dinner

    Big congratulations to Nate and family on his graduation from Friends Academy and his acceptance to Cornell! Big things happening for this young man! The dinner at Toku looked amazing (I had sushi there another day and it was deeeelicious!) and I was so happy to hang out with this awesome family. Please send them some good thoughts today- all is well, there’s just some stuff going on they could use some good juju for. Can’t wait to hear all about Cornell at our next session!

    gabby’s graduation

    My favorite tiny dancer graduated from 8th grade and is off on all kinds of new adventures! She is still dancing for the NYC Ballet  (The School of American Ballet/SAB) so with moving up as you get older and get asked back, high school becomes more and more difficult to coordinate with professional dance. So she’ll be going to public school and going back and forth to nyc daily (such a busy schedule). And that’s after a summer dance intensive all the way on the other side of the country. So exciting! And I love the rest of this family- the littlest boy was literally rolling around in the grass in his jacket and dress pants when I arrived for the shoot. The middle son is all heart, as shown thru his flower petal he found. Loving it! And them.
