Agnieska, Jon, Melina, Keila, and Benicio

Agnieska, Jon, and I worked together at one of the earlier jobs in our Engineering careers, before these guys were married, and before these kids were born.  We’ve kept in touch through Facebook, so Agnieska knew what I was up to with my photography.  I always love hearing about old friends that are new fans of my work, and I love it even more when I get that email asking when I’m available to schedule their session!  And this family and these photos did not disappoint.  They were more than comfortable with just spending time together and enjoying each other in front of my camera, which gave me plenty of So You moments to capture for them!

Sonny’s Bris

My lovely and photogenic cousin had a baby boy 8 days ago, so yesterday he had his brit milah (circumcision) and naming surrounded by family and friends. After the highlight of the celebrations, we hung out for a bit. Figured we'd prefer to spend time with family than spend time in traffic! Jaron absolutely LOVED playing with big sister Stella and was SO SWEET with her!!!  Welcome to the family, Sonny! I can't wait to watch you grow! 

Janisse, Christian, Liam, Tristan, and Family welcome baby Olivier!

I love getting to watch families grow.  These twins have really matured since our last photo session, especially now that they are big brothers to another little boy!  We had fun relaxing and playing and enjoying this new baby.  He was so alert and calm throughout most of our session together, parents were relaxed and took it all in stride, and I hope to see more of them as they continue to grow!
