Outdoor Indoor Family Session Inspiration with 5 Month-Old II Westchester At Home Family Photo Session

You know those almost-winter autumn days when it’s just plain cold outside and all you want to do is cuddle up with a cup of hot cocoa? Well, what do you do when your photo session is on a day like that? Your best option is to do the very beginning of your session outside (we are talking 2-5 minutes MAX if you don’t want to bundle up!!) and then head inside for a snuggle sesh. It was the perfect compromise for this session.

We brought little G outside snuggled in a warm blanket and layered up, quick got some great shots, and then headed back inside to warm up and play.

In total, we photographed for about 20 minutes as this little guy was exhausted by then and ready for a nap. The baby-life is exhausting, friends!

Personal: Finding your Reason, the Search for the Illusive “Why” as an Artist II Destination Photographer Katie Donnelly

As an artist, somewhere along the line someone will ask you why you do what you do. Why it’s so important to you that it feels like if you DON’T do it, you may be sick, you may feel lost, you may feel all those feelings of non-fulfillment that are so completely debilitating.  I’ve been […]

Ex: We are coming to Paris this spring at the end of March and it's our first time! We don't often travel so this is really big for us. I've been a Francophile since I was in my teens and have always dreamed of coming. I'd love this for my family and especially to be able to relive this special trip everyday on my walls with an art piece! My kids are 2, 5 and 9. Crossing my fingers and toes to be chosen!!
