NJ Family Documentary Photographer

I drove home from this shoot (about 7 months ago) like I do from so many, with a big smile on my face, filled with joy and a sense of purpose. In my passenger seat were tomato, eggplant, and pepper seedlings that this family shared with me for our garden. My windows were rolled down while I enjoyed the green views and the smell of spring. About three weeks prior, I had photographed this sweet little baby’s birth, but his siblings were asleep, and I was sad not to have pictures of them together. The story didn’t feel complete. I was so happy to return to their home to spend more time with this family, especially mom, whom I’ve adored since her first e-mail to me, and who inspires me every time she posts on Facebook or her blog.  And these big kids…I don’t think you can meet them and not instantly love them. I hope you can see in this glimpse of their life why I find this family to be so special.

Plus, are these not the cutest babywearing pictures ever?  🙂123456
