So we love our family – and we love our friends – and when we’re able to make clients out of friends and friends out of clients…well…you get the idea. It just gets better and better!

This is our 3rd session with this awesome family, whom we are lucky enough to call dear friends.  We captured Mama’s 2nd Maternity Shoot – and Baby Boy’s Newborn Session a while back.  So to say we were overdue anyway…well, it’s always an understatement!

We headed over to the Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ – it was the Mama’s great suggestion! Dave has photographed there once before for wedding portraits, but didn’t have much time to play around and see the grounds. And man – they really are GROUNDS!  I need to look up how many acres it really is, but there are awesome pockets of secret coves highlighting nature and avant-garde sculpture. Regardless of your personal preference for fine art – the landscape art is fantastic.  We were able to check out what felt like 1/10th of the whole park, which leaves room for so many more great session outings to come and explore!

Another thing I need to mention before you see the rest of the images – as you can imagine, we capture all sorts of people.  And then there are those special times when the people you photograph haven’t a clue how naturally beautiful they are.  Our Mama friend here is one of them.  At the end of the day, we’ll get your best side – make sure you’re not cross-eyed or have food in your teeth.  It’s often when everyone relaxes that their beauty shines through. This image of the Mama below has to be one of my favorite this year.

Thanks again for letting us capture your family! We loved the Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NJ! Can’t wait until next year!!!
