Photographing Ridgewood Brothers in Van Ness Park

I’ve been a children photographer in Bergen county for over two years and during this time I’ve had many clients come back for more sessons.  I love meeting new families but there is something special about repeat clients – watching the kids grow and change year after year, catching up with Moms and Dads who feel more like friends than clients.

This family session was no exception: I photographed these guys a year ago and was so excited to see and photograph them again this year.   I loved watching them interact.  The older brother is one of the most active, talkative and interactive boys I’ve met – he kept talking and laughing pretty much the whole session!  And the younger one really looks up to his brother and it was so sweet to witness them together.  And not only they are so handsome but they are also two of the most best-dressed kids I know – check out their cool outfits.  Their Mom is one of the most stylish women I know so it is no surprise that her kids looked like they belonged in a magazine!

This session was a Father’s Day surprise for their Dad – I’ve heard he was thrilled with it!

His Mom said that this image was so ‘him’ – I am so glad that I was able to capture this expression!

And this one is so special for me as well.  R. was laughing and goofing around most of the session so I was so happy to be able to capture him in a thoughtful and more serious mood, which lasted all of a second!
