Cousins, aunts and uncles who haven't seen each other for many months were thrilled to see each other! During some of these images I captured, I wondered what was going on behind my to provoke such laughter! Rumor has it some of the uncles were making silly faces and bunny ears above my head....

Gorgeous Siblings at Carl Schurz Park, upper east side NYC by Nina Drapacz Photography

I have been photographing this beautiful redhead since she was a baby and even during her mom’s pregnancy. When her mom takes her out, everyone stops to say hi to her, she is the “mayor” of the block! She’s a bundle of personality and light and a true pleasure to photograph. So, when her little brother arrived it was his turn, and what an adorable cutie he is! He is delicious to photograph, to look at and to hold! What lucky parents!!As with all new siblings, the older child wants a piece of the action when I concentrate on the baby,so we took turns, while the baby was getting ready, he had just learned to sit, I spent time following the older one around and giving her tons of attention, needless to say she was the performer and rose to the occasion.

Twin Toddlers in the Garden of the Church of St. Lukes in the Field, NYC by Nina Drapacz Photography

We were so lucky to have a day in Late October that is 60 degrees and as a photographer, my favorite lighting, cloudy. Twin beauties in the incredible quiet gardens of Saint Luke’s . We did a good job disturbing the peace that afternoon as we prompted the girls with songs, snacks, keys, silly sounds, etc. I’ve had the pleasure of photographing them five months before with their absolutely stunning dog! The dog, a pure white show quality Malamute was the most mellow dog I have ever met! The girls sat on him, fed him their own snacks, pulled him around, what a sweetie!
