Dance Headshot Portraits | Malone NY Portrait Photographer
On Friday night we went to Watertown to watch our Granddaughter perform in her first dance competition of the 2019 season. We're so proud of her and just love watching her enjoy and excel at what she loves. A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of taking dance headshot portraits in my Dickinson Center studio of our granddaughter and her cousin who are both members of the competition team for the All That Jazz dance company. Here are some of my favorites from both sessions - such beautiful girls who were such amazing and easy subjects!!

Beautiful Fall Family Photography Session | Canton NY Family Photographer
Part one of this beautiful fall family session began on a cold and windy October afternoon at a beautiful tree lined location. We started with some family pictures and then as soon as Gannon's feet hit the ground he was off and running (just as his mother had predicted LOL). We soon realized that little McKinley’s nose was bright red and that we really needed to quit for the day and try again later in the week when it was supposed to warm up. The temperature ended up swinging 30 points higher when we got together again the following Wednesday - so instead of the cold we were sweating!! The warm weather made it so much easier to get some precious pictures of little sissy by herself and with Mom and Dad. The leaves were so colorful and the golden light made for the perfect fall background to finish up the session for this beautiful young family. So thankful that Mom's friend Jen was there to watch the kids so I could capture some loving pictures of Mom and Dad. Here's a few of my favorites from this session.

Mommy and Me Wildflower Garden Photography Session | Potsdam NY Child Photographer
This beautiful Mommy and Me session was such a great way to end my wildflower garden sessions for the season. My flowers were still in full bloom and the leaves had started to change – such a beautiful mix of colors! This little one was so happy from the moment I met her until it was time to leave. I love these type of sessions because they are so easy and full of love– I just asked Mom and her little one to snuggle, laugh and have fun with each other. I was so amazed that she was already able to stand and walk with assistance at only 8 months old! Here’s a few of my favorites from this session – I just love how they capture the beautiful bond between this mother and daughter - so special!!
