the hatt family
While a very unfortunate and sad family event brought them all together, this is the first time the whole family was together at once for over 2 years. Although they were on their way to a wake, they decided to get a few family pictures first. I know personally that death of a special person in your life makes you definitely know that it’s so important to take the picture when you can. Because for all of us, someday, that’s all that’ll be left besides the memories. So we tried to keep the mood as light as possible and had them enjoy being together before the rest of their day (and days following) would be filled with difficulty. So here’s another reminder– take the picture!! If you use a cell phone, disposable camera (is that even a thing anymore?) or hire a professional, it doesn’t matter. Take. The. Picture.

manhasset hockey
We’ve been trying to coordinate this game shoot for a few months- celebrating the end of my clients’ sons’ Manhasset Varsity Hockey careers. Unfortunately, we couldn’t work it out before this game due to scheduling conflicts and also unfortunately, they lost this game which was a playoff game- so this ended up being their last one. They did score some great goals though! It was definitely challenging shooting something as fast moving as hockey, but i loved it!! You know how I love some hockey!! I do, however, need those holes in the glass like they have at NHL games for the photographers. Good luck to all the boys heading to college next year, especially to number 2- the captain and to number 15- the assistant captain; my clients since they were soooo little!

the ega family
I think most of our previous shoots have been at the beach, so this was a nice change of pace for this family with fall foliage. They even brought their dog along! Black dogs are notioriously hard to photograph, but he was adorable and even though he just looks like he only has a tongue, he’s still super photogenic. And watching their older son come along so well is so heartwarming!

the conn family
It was freezing the day I took these pictures but everyone was such troupers (well, there was a little drama to be honest, but we muddled thru!) but you would never know it looking at the photos. So, mission accomplished!! Enjoy these cutie sisters and the beautiful fall foliage!

devin’s bat mitzvah
My third bar/bat mitzvah for this awesome family-and Devin did just just as awesome as her older brother and sister. Shot this in the fall (remember pretty colors?!) but didn’t want to post it before the holidays so their Christmas card would still be a surprise. And yes, Christmas card with bat mitzvah pictures. This is why they are my kind of people!
