the big apple

[NEW YORK] Nothing reignites my passion for what I do like changing my surroundings. This was confirmed when I traveled to Paris a couple years back. So, when the opportunity presented itself to travel to New York to shoot with some of my favorite families this year, I didn’t even think twice.

Done. Sold. My bags are packed.

I visit San Francisco annually, but I hadn’t been to NY in over ten years and I was quickly reminded that there just really is no other city like it. It’s fast and rich and gets the adrenaline pumping through my veins – but it’s also beautiful and charming, and a bit of a seductress. I’m an LA girl from birth, but I can definitely see why people fall so deeply in love.

My second day in the city, I met up with this family for coffee and a stroll through Central Park at sunrise and let me tell you, it was pure magic. Not only are they just the coolest, but it was the first somewhat chilly day in the city and we all relished in that cozy Fall feeling. I was also a little bit blown away by how “together” they were so early in the morning, and how solid their foundation felt. I wonder if you will feel their bond come through in the images, like I felt it in person. Such good kids with truly incredible, united parents.

This session was a real treat for me, even more so when they asked if I would come back again next year. Perhaps New York will be added to my annual visits list. (YAY!)
