IPhone To The Rescue!

My favorite orange shoes

It seems like much of my time with my girls is spent at a playground. They are at that age where the playground is the place to be. After school when the weather is nice we stop by the PG (as my sister and I like to call it) for at least an hour. On [...]

Street Photography: Times Square NYC

Street Photography NYC

A couple of months ago I was scheduled to go to a workshop at B&H on Street Photography.  I was really looking forward to it.  I am completely fascinated by street photography!  I love how real it is – capturing raw moments just as they happen. Nothing is staged and no stiff poses. Just…life. The [...]

Photographing “The Boys”

Photo session with Leo

Each year around this time my sister requests a photo session for her boys.   I have slideshows of Roey and Leo from last year if you want to check them out. First we started with Little Leo. I used to call him Baby Leo but he graduated to “Little”.  As soon as I got there [...]

My New Camera!

New iPhone Camera!

Family Activity NYC – NY Aquarium

NY Aquarum

Yesterday I mentioned I would tell you about a fun family activity involving sea creatures. Yep – the NY Aquarium! Whenever the weekend approaches, panic sets in for the dreaded “what are we doing this weekend” squeal coming from my 2 girls. They would love to go to playgrounds or Dylan’s Candy Bar every weekend [...]

The weather has been relatively mild here in NY with only one (freak) snowstorm back in October. The hopes of a white Christmas are long gone and now we were left wondering if it would ever snow again. This past Saturday when we woke up, the streets were covered in pure white loveliness – something [...]
