annual cousins christmas pictures
Hello all! I wrapped up my very last session for 2012 yesterday- a christening for a beautiful baby girl. Came home, downloaded the pictures to the computer, answered a few emails, tidied up the office, and with that? I’m on vacation!! Ok, well I’m never REALLY on vacation but this is as close as I get!
Every year we do a Christmas picture of all the cousins and a shot with grandma & grandpa too for their card. We usually do it at the beach club on Fathers Day when we’re all there together, but we weren’t all together there this year because baby Joe was so little and it was just too much to bring those three out for brunch. We had the pictures scheduled for the day after Thanksgiving, but Sandy hit and we were the Beyrer Refugee Center to many, including all the cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents since we were the only ones with power. And heat. We even had some overnight guests. So even though everyone was sorta unshowered, not dressed up (my kids didn’t even have shoes on!), and just generally casual we figured it was the perfect time to do the pictures anyway since we were all together and everyone was having fun hanging out together. It’s definitely a memory!
So here are all the cousins- all 9 of them. And for those of you who are new to the blog-yes, they are all boys. Not one single girl. From top row left: Timmy, Jack, James, Brendan, Quinn (not happy about the pictures), Patrick, Baby Joe, Aidan and Sean is in the front.

And the whole group with Grandma & Grandpa. Quinny was a little happier on Grandpa’s lap. 
Family is a great thing! Even (or especially) during a hurricane and thereafter.
Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas Eve! See you here on the blog tomorrow! (you’ll definitely want to pop in tomorrow if you can).

the wynn family
So excited to see this little guy and his family again this year, but so sad that this beach is probably no longer looking like this after Sandy. I know all the homes in the area (Bay Park) were pretty damaged with the storm surge and the sewage plant issues that followed. At any rate, Mr. G is one of my most favorite newborn sessions and it’s great to see him getting so big. And their puppy too!

the lerh family
Starting to catch up on all the sessions I did for Christmas this year, however I have personal pictures from the summer (!!!) I still have to edit and post. Well, if the world doesn’t actually come to an end tomorrow at least the blog will be nice and busy over the next few weeks…
Was thrilled to photograph this family again this year. Haven’t seen them since their little one’s newborn session earlier this year. It was a really chilly morning in New Jersey and the girls were real troopers outside. At least for a while…

the nevi family
A quick session for Timmy’s BFF (who’s Mom also happens to be one of my BFF’s) and his family, including their dog Holly. Who has the be the most patient pup I’ve ever seen. Ever. And I just realized that my blog is becoming dog central. So many sessions this year with dogs included in the family sessions. I’m loving it!
And back to editing for me. -
the slat family
A family of four gorgeous girls (who my blog stalkers will recognize from their oldest daughters sweet 16 earlier this year, and from a family session for the littlest’s christening last year). I always love seeing them and photographing them- they’re all as sweet as they are beautiful!
Sometimes you just need your mommy. And a candy cane.
Such a good sharer.
