Riela and Emmil

Riela is like a little sister to Audrey and I. So much so that we asked her to be Addi's Godmother. Her boyfriend Emmil was visiting for the weekend from Las Vegas and she had been nagging at me to take a few shots of them (little sisters do that I guess).

We finally had the chance last night after I came home from work. It was nothing fancy, we shot this in the common area of our apartment building just outside from our patio. We had a lot of fun, and Addi kept herself entertained with her new lawnmower bubble blower thingamabobber that Riela got for her.

Here they are... enjoy!

Emmil. He really is this serious. All the time. Seriously... =)

Here's the promise ring Emmil gave Riela on their anniversary... awwwwww!

Mothers Day 2009

Today, I took the day off to spend time with the 2 most important women in my life. My beautiful wife and my precious little girl. It was a quiet mothers day for us... we went to church in the morning (something I need to do more often). After that we headed to the Skylands Botanical Garden for a mini photoshoot and to just enjoy our time with one another. After about an hour of walking around the park we went to have a late lunch at Greek City Restaurant in Ramsey, NJ. This place is fantastic! We were so stuffed that we didn't even bother with dinner tonight.

To my wonderful wife, Audrey... Happy Mothers Day sweetheart!

Our Family... tripods and timers are really handy but I really need to go buy a remote for my camera. =)


Wife, Mother, Best Friend.... The love of my life. =)


Here is Addi practicing to become my newest associate photographer.




Another family shot.


Beautiful day

The Hart Family: Sophie's portrait session

Meghan and Gary were one of our first clients, so when Meghan approached me to take photos of their little one, Sophie, I couldn't resist. We met at Bear Mountain State Park where Meghan and Gary had done their engagement session. It was a beautiful day out, albeit a little hazy and humid. And little Sophie was an absolute ham in front of the camera.

Meghan and Gary, thanks for coming out and spending time with us. We're so glad to have you as our clients and friends.

-Jaymie, Audrey and Addison

Jenn, Ryan and little Kaila

On Thursday, I went down to the city to see an old friend who was visiting with family. We went for a walk and had an impromptu photo session with their little girl Kaila. I have to say, she's a cutie!

























The next day, Audrey and I brought Addi down to meet Kaila. We had dinner in chinatown then went for a little walk. These two hit it off like they've been friends for years.

Just before I snapped this, I told Jenn and Ryan "Hey! This is what you guys would like as a family of 4!" ... and this was the reaction. =)

BFF's for life.

I always have my tripod in the back of our SUV for this very reason... I like to be in pictures too!


Jenn and Ryan, thank you for coming out from the left coast to visit us. You guys have a beautiful family... we really need to go on the Disney cruise we talked about!
