~ lighthouse point engagement session ~

Thought I would share a few images from an engagement session I help out with a few weeks ago at Lighthouse Point Park in New Haven, CT.  Head on over to Robert’s blog for more amazing images from our day together. We are very excited for their May wedding at Jonathan Edwards Winery.

~ valentine’s mini sessions ~

valentines day mini session

This time last year I was at Target staring at a row of valentines cards.  After trying to decide between Disney Princesses and Care Bears for what had to have been an hour, I decided I wanted something else.  So I grabbed a few props and put together our own valentine (see above). Take that, Hallmark!

Anyway, this year I decided to step it up a notch! I have created a funky backdrop and I am inviting you to come on over to create your own custom valentines. So here is the rundown…

Valentine’s Mini Sessions

Where: All photos will be taken at my home studio in Trumbull, CT
When: You have TWO days to choose from! January 28th and 29th between 10am and 4pm.
What: The $40 session fee includes a 15-20 minute portrait session, 3-5 edited images and 25 custom designed Valentine’s Day cards.
Why: Why not?:)
How: You may book your session by emailing me (click the contact link at the top of the blog) or by calling me at 203-243-7424.

So grab your kiddos and get over here!  This is going to be a blast!  Now all I have to do is keep Baby B away from the set!  That is going to prove to be a challenge!

The fine print:
Payment is due at the time of booking. Credit Cards are accepted.
Additional images, prints and products will be offered at a discounted price.
More detailed information will be provided upon booking.

Hi J.C.,

If so, could you please let me know.
Thanks

Hey Nichole! I think I can fit you in after May’s session on Sunday. I will give you a call to work out the details!

Nichole FitzGerald - January 19, 2012 - 11:23 am

Hi,

I’d like to book a session. My friend May Lau directed me to this photo opportunity and you came highly recommended by her :) Not sure if May and I are going to try to book back to back times or not, but either day, any time, works for me. You can email me or call 203-803-0685 to confirm details and get payment. Thanks!

Sign us up! I’d love to bring the 3kids on the 29th if that works.

~ first birthday ~

I love how you dance with a head shake that leads to a full body shimmy. I love how you hold a full on conversation with me even though I have no idea what you are saying. I love how you smile constantly and scream with excitement (okay, maybe I don’t love the scream). I love how you dive to Maggie when she comes in the room. Happy Birthday, Bea!

Oleg Bari - December 19, 2011 - 10:53 pm

Great shots ! Love the happiness on the kids faces !!!

Chris Werner - December 19, 2011 - 7:04 pm

Love the bright colors in these shots!

Annie Warren - December 19, 2011 - 6:46 pm

Awww…. Happy Birthday Bea! She is just gorgeous in her ’1′ t-shirt and frilly skirt. One day she is going to love you even more for capturing such precious memories for her to look back on. I LOVE the photos with her big sister, Maggie!

Sandra Casparriello Murphy - October 20, 2011 - 10:17 am

JC !!! Look at your beautiful girls!!! Oh my goodness! My sister is my greatest gift! I am really looking forward to seeing a post with the girls in their Halloween costumes! All our best, Sandra & Kevin

Christie Cotter - September 9, 2011 - 6:28 am

janet Thomas - September 8, 2011 - 11:12 pm

Kelly Vasami - September 8, 2011 - 10:54 pm

Bea is a YEAR already?! My, how time flies! :) I don’t know what’s cuter – her birthday outfit, those gorgeous blue eyes, or that smile!!

~ first day of first grade ~

I love that you went through 10 stores yesterday unimpressed with the choices until you found this chetah headband. I love that you were excited to find out if your bus driver was a girl or a boy. I love that you asked me to take a picture of you sitting on our front steps like we did last year. I love that you got a little nervous when the bus pulled up and came to me for a “going to school” hug. I love you, Muppet!
