Kenna | Jersey City NJ Newborn Photographer

Gorgeous Kenna being comforted by mom.  (Love mom’s ring!)

Something tells me she’ll be a daddy’s girl 🙂

She woke up for just long enough to stick her tongue out at me!

The look of love. <3

Honoring Kenna’s grandfather, who was a firefighter, with this super adorable knit firefighters outfit, complete with hat and suspenders!  I have to say some newborns are not big fans of wardrobe changes, but Kenna loved being in this.  It calmed her as she started right into the lens.  Love!

Baby Powers + MacKenzie | Jersey City NJ Newborn Photographer

It’s hard to believe summer break is over!  I always get a little sad that summer is over, but I’m not kidding, I start getting excited for the holidays as soon as September hits.  Our little linebacker is going to be 3 years old so it only gets more fun from here!

Anyway, kicking off the ‘new’ year with a post on adorable baby Powers and his big sis MacKenzie.  Even though MacKenzie is only 16 months older than her new baby brother, she was so sweet and gentle with him.  I love Powers’ little baby rolls.  Heart. Melting.

Saint Cyr | Jersey City NJ Children Photographer

I was really excited for this session from the get-go.  I was already enamored with mom Leah’s fine art photography and so thoroughly enjoyed conceptualizing this shoot with her.  (Leah’s the kind of photographer who not only creates incredible photographs, but powerful imagery that transcends words.  She’s also an associate professor at Rutgers which just made me all nostalgic for my nerdy days in grad school.  You can view her work here – http://leahdevun.com.)  All that aside, she and Macauley have the cutest 2.5 year-old boy ever and had Saint Cyr all dressed to the nines with an outfit from Zara – which we agreed has the most amazing kids’ clothes.  Such a gorgeous family!
