This talented executive had so much personality and was a pleasure to photograph. It was inspiring to see her ambition and drive to succeed. Her warmth, style and open smile made this session a lot of fun.

Vacation recap

lailophoto — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 14:00:57 +0000

We returned from beautiful Turkey a couple of days ago and I am trying to catch up now. We had a good time and it was wonderful to see my family and spend time with my nephews.

Overseas travel makes me appreciate what we have in New York City.

Our favorite twins

lailophoto — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 00:49:35 +0000

We saw our favorite twins this weekend, Ella and Sophia. While Julia is visiting her family in Poland, Eric is holding down the fort. We spent about an hour at the Central Park Zoo and then went to the Billy Johnson playground nearby. The weather was perfect and we all had a wonderful time. Two weeks until we jet off to Turkey!

From our last trip to the Dominican Republic…

Adam is 3 - Part II

Adam had a great birthday party today. Thanks to all our friends for coming and celebrating with us.

Day away from Manhattan

lailophoto — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 00:39:16 +0000

We have the best friends ever. A couple of weeks ago they invited us to their home in Long Island and it was so much fun. We grilled and chilled by the pool. Our preschool boys were brave because the water was still cold, but nothing would stop them from splashing and swimming. It was a great day. We really enjoyed getting out of Manhattan and spending the day in the ‘burbs.

Adam is 3

lailophoto — Thu, 04 Jun 2009 00:56:40 +0000

This year we are celebrating Adam’s birthday twice. The first time was with his school buddies and tomorrow we are getting together with our friends. It reminds me of my Mom and the story about her birth certificate. My grandparents were quite busy when she was born. My grandfather was in the military and was getting ready to be deployed to start his long years of military service. My grandmother was to follow him shortly thereafter and because they were so busy they didn’t get a chance to get a copy of my mother’s birth certificate until well after her birth. So, we think she may have been born on January 7th even though the actual certificate was issued on January 21st. Hence we celebrate both dates.

Adam actually might beat this record this year. We will be celebrating his birthday and many other birthdays in July when we finally fly to Antalya, Turkey to see my family and spend ten days soaking up the sunshine and enjoying the warm Mediterranean Sea. We can’t wait!

One of my colleagues is a talented attorney and a published author. We recently got together to take a few photos to update her various business profiles.

Happy Birthday Adam!

Each year we have a tradition to take a photo of Adam at 6:54am, the exact time he was born. He is three years old today and we love him more and more every day.

Here he is at 3 hours, one year, two years and a photo taken this morning!

Mother’s Day

lailophoto — Sun, 10 May 2009 21:27:26 +0000

Today is Mother’s Day. I want to say thank you to my Mom, who is far away, but is always in my heart. Of course I can’t forget my husband and Adam who make me the happiest woman on this planet every day.

Another newborn baby

Several of my friends had babies recently and three out of four had girls. Here is one of the babies I met.

Tribeca Film Festival fair

lailophoto — Sun, 03 May 2009 00:20:40 +0000

Despite the weather predictions, yesterday turned out to be a beautiful day. We went downtown to check out the Tribeca Film Festival fair. It was raining when we got there. We meandered a bit until Adam found a beautiful playground. We spent nearly four hours there and were able to leave only after promising to our son that we would go to the Museum of Natural History. It felt wonderful to be out all day and enjoy spring.

Six months old beauty

lailophoto — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 22:38:59 +0000

When I photographed this little beauty several months ago, she slept soundly and allowed us to take many sleeping portraits. Fast forward to today and we couldn’t keep her still for one minute. She is sitting up, almost crawling and has a lot to say.

Blue-eyed doll

This little princess has the most beautiful blue eyes. She gets them from her parents. During her newborn session, she was wide awake almost the entire time. She is three weeks old and is absolutely stunning looking.

Real Smiles

I love my son’s real smiles, it is such a joy to hear him laughing.

Most of the time he graces me with this expression.
