Zach's Proposal to Kim (Central Park, NY)

Lindy and Willie's Newborn Session (Skyler)

Lindy & Willie live in the same town as me so photo sessions are super easy and fun with them. They always have new restaurant or running route recommendations for me as a relative newbie in town (Lindy grew up here). Despite a few tears at the beginning, Skyler was just as photogenic as her parents and she worked a handful of excellent outfits styled by her mother.

After photographing their engagement session and maternity photos, Lela and Paul asked me to do an in-home newborn session once Lela gave birth back in January. This was my first ever newborn session and I fell in love with it immediately.
