The blizzard of 2014 in a few photos.

It is already October! This poor blog is the last thing of all to receive an update in my life. So many fun shoots, awesome sailing afternoons, a few fun girls weekends and surf trips, a bunch of gorgeous weddings, and abundance of adorable kiddos in front of my camera. Not to mention the new site I am on the verge of launching! Thanks for stopping by this poor neglected blog, I think I *might* just get a few photos posted soon!

Here’s one quick snap, taken last week by my friend Philip (on my friend Sarah’s phone!) that sort of sums up a bit of the fun side of this year!  That’s me in the middle, with the red and yellow 8’0, surrounded by some of my super talented triathlete, marathon running, health writing, life coaching, and surf and snowboarding girlfriends!   xoxo

The Noguchi Museum in Queens hosted a member’s night recently, with guided curator-led gallery tours and complimentary gimlets, made with care by Abraham Hawkins, head mixologist at Dutch Kills bar. The moody weather of the night kept many away, but those who ventured out were treated to a quiet museum, a strong and refreshing cocktail, and an overall memorable night.

The East Side Gimlet recipe is as follows (I made this at home with fantastic results!)
1 oz fresh lime juice
3/4 oz simple syrup
1 pinch of fresh mint
2-3 cucumber slices
2 oz gin
Shake vigorously with ice, strain into a champagne coupe.

I’m currently editing a family portrait session with 5 week old Evie as the star of the show! Evie’s parents and big brother Hudson (a ‘puggle’ -pug crossed with beagle!) were sent to me by mutual friends, and they were especially happy to see both my Furry Friends and Cutie Pies sections of the website! As someone who grew up with a lot of pets, I love capturing pet portraits as well as portraits of their human counterparts! More of Evie and her lovely family to come!

While I’m in the middle of editing my most recent portrait session, I’d like to share an image that I took this summer. Adam and his Dad were horsing around, waiting for Mom and Gabrielle to finish getting ready. Here is one of my favorites from that portion of our day together!
