Andrew is a college student set to graduate from Montclair State University, in New Jersey and he's planning ahead! He wanted professional headshot for LinkedIn as well as for job interviews as he looks for work in the financial field after graduation. We came up with many different looks for him so he can have variety for his collection of headshots. We did portraits inside and outside the studio, both casual and professional looks!

The Stars of the Show

The Ngeyesan family from Bloomfield, New Jersey have been regular clients as I document their growing family each year. They last were in to commemorate Tracey's pregnancy, and this was the first portrait with the new baby.

The sheer amount of energy coming from the kids was enough [...]

The energy that develops during a family portrait can be something really magical. A few weeks ago, the Nee family came in to get portraits taken.

Irene Weinberg, author of They Serve Bagels in Heaven, needed new photographs for her podcast and website. Coming into my studio, I was struck with how ebullient and enthusiastic Irene is and I wanted her portraits to reflect that energy. I consulted with Irene to select a wardrobe to send a message. "I was surprised how easy it all was with your guidance," Irene wrote me later, " down to choosing the best fashion 'looks' for what I [...]
