New York, Baby!

Oh my goodness!
What a wonderful time we had working in New York City
last month!
I didn't think it was on my "bucket list" until we got there!
We did all the touristy things that one must do: Empire State Building,
Statue of Liberty, Carnegie Deli, Times Square.
We left a few things undone so that we can go back with
the kids and visit some more attractions.

The highlight of my trip was getting to shoot portraits
right in Rockefeller Center! The place was transformed in minutes
from a sidewalk cafe to an amazing banquet venue and back
again with no trouble at all. Wow, the staff was amazing and
so quick!

We headed to a Yankees game and seriously didn't know
how I could cheer for a team that I've always disliked.
But, I did! If I can change after so many years, anyone can.

Another big change for me, and if you know me, you know how
much I hate shopping. Well, I have to admit that it was pretty
amazing getting to shop and buy stuff on 5th Avenue! Again,
what a transformation!

If you've never been there, you must go at least once.
It is the city that never sleeps and we didn't either. I noticed
that I sort of quit taking pictures once jet lag caught up with
us. The bags under our eyes just couldn't be retouched!
It was so worth it!

Families this holiday

We hesitate to post clients' images immediately after a session because we may be "letting the cat out of the bag" when the images are intended as gifts for their families. Here are some from a super fun family that lives in our neighborhood. Such a wonderful bunch of folks!!
