MHP Session: A Mother’s Day Surprise!

When Angela contacted me about doing a special session with her nieces and nephews as a Mother’s Day surprise for their mothers and grandmother, I was excited and nervous at the same time. With such a large group, this had the potential to be  a lot of fun or a catastrophe waiting to happen! After tossing a few dates around and taking into account jobs, games, the spotty Spring weather, we finally agreed on a day and location that worked for everyone. We chose Hoboken, New Jersey for its skyline view and funky urban landscape. Unfortunately, I came down with a bad case of the flu right before the session and even though I looked (and felt) like a total mess, I knew that I had to pull myself together because there was no way we were going to be able to reschedule this session in time for Mother’s Day. The day arrived and the weather was gorgeous, though extremely windy!  But after the first clicks of my shutter, I knew I was going to have a blast with this crazy bunch! The “kids” (ranging from 6 to 21 years old) were awesome and made my job so easy. With a family filled with colorful personalities,  it was not hard to capture some picture perfect moments…just take a look!
