I’ve been traveling all over the country doing “Photo Parties” for about 4 or so years now, and they are always a huge success! in terms of families having fun, parents loving the photos, and me feeling like I ran a marathon. A Photo Party isn’t really a party per se – there is no beer, as one father asked me – lol!! I wish! But it’s a day of photo shoots hosted by one family for a number of guest families (usually 12 to 20) at a pre-determined location (either the host’s home, a nearby park, beach, etc.).
This most recent party took place in Greenwich, CT, hosted by the lovely and hysterical Casey Family (their session will be on the blog in the next few days). And even though it poured rain that day, the families were still game for playing outside. We had so much fun, captured beautiful images and I managed not to get my camera too wet!
Here are a few of my favorite moments… when we cracked up…
Ran through the drizzling rain…
Took our first steps…
Tickled each other…
Took time for close-ups…
(I love it when you see the silliness and maturity of a child just moments apart.)
We also adored and squeeeeezed one another…
Raised the roof and were amused by each other…
We ran in the rain…
And, lastly, my favorite shot… we cuddled on the covered porch with the rain pouring down just outside…
Ahhhh! so much fun, and this was my favorite photo party yet… More pics to come as I blog myself silly this week catching up on posting all of the sessions over the past few weeks: beach shoots, my recent trip to New York City, photographing the new family living in my old childhood home in NJ, and much more!…
Thank you for visiting!
