Fourth of July!!! 'Merica!!!

After working all day, we decided not to brave the crazy crowds of spectators that surrounds the Hudson on the evening of the fourth. Instead we came home and decided to make the best of what we could see from our rooftop. Not knowing that we have a great view of the fireworks from up there! Here are a few of the photographs I was able to successfully take. When it comes to fireworks there is nothing more than the right setting and timing, but getting those two to coincide can sometimes be an adventure. Hope you enjoy and all had a safe Fourth!

Beautiful People!

There isn't anything quite as much fun as capturing someone's personality and freezing that moment in time forever. When I am photographing people I do shoot a lot, but it's just so I don't miss something in their face or eyes that gives them the ability to shine through the mundane task of having your picture taken. Yes, that means I have to go through a lot of photos, but it's totally worth it. This is just a sneak peek of these two wonderful people I had the pleasure of photographing yesterday. I just couldn't wait to share them!

Lush greenery, posing squirrels, and bodies of water!

We finally made it into Prospect Park near our apartment. Needless to say it is beautiful and we will be spending a lot more time there. It amazes me that there is a seemingly never ending list of amazing things to do here. I hope you enjoy a little taste of NYC nature!

24 in 24 on 24 for 24...whew!

Hello Friends!

It's been awhile since my last post, but alas I return bringing photographs of a day spring day in NYC! My lovely sister-in-law visited this past week for her golden birthday. For her celebration she had one request, that we do 24 NYC adventures for her 24th birthday which is on the 24th in 24 hours. Let's just say we are still exhausted, but we did it! It was so much fun and we did things that we still hadn't done since moving here seven months ago. I've provided the landscapes, portraits of the birthday girl and a few with Cameron that I took throughout the day. I have to say it felt so good to hold my camera again! Hope you enjoy and I won't take so much time between posts again!
