I photographed this gorgeous mom when she was 8 months pregnant with her second beautiful boy. The baby is two weeks old and his big brother is enamored! I love the look on his face when the baby is close or better yet, in his arms!
Maternity Photography in the studio by Nina Drapacz Photography
A couple of years ago I had photographed this glowing mom with her beautiful little baby boy and now here she is with her glorious baby belly! Pregnancy is best captured in the 7th and 8th month. Women literally glow - they are gorgeous!
Snowy Day and Indoor Photography by Nina Drapacz Photography
In 22 years I've never forgotten to show up for a photo shoot until this snowy day. The mom emailed me to say the girls were excited and what time I would be there....luckily they lived around the block! I ran over as fast as I could and was greeted by two adorable amazing sisters! The light was fading fast so when I saw the shiny silver reflective table I immediately started using it. It provided just the perfect pop of light.
Siblings and a Outdoor Space in a NYC Apartment Building by Nina Drapacz Photography
The LAST warm day this winter! I was able to squeeze this shoot in in December. It was over 60 degrees! It started out rough, light was fading and big brother wasn't thrilled sharing the spotlight with his baby brother. With lots of patience and persistence, a success!

Westside girl comes to the upper east side for a fun photo shoot with Nina Drapacz Photography!
Her mom picked her up from school and came straight to the park. It was unseasonably warm, luckily, and she had a blast! Apparently this is her first formal photo shoot. Seven is a wonderful age! Between jumping on a thin stairwell banister, doing back bends and hugging a
tree to name a few stints, she didn't want to our session to end. The perfect subject!
Happy Halloween! Costume Portraits by Nina Drapacz Photography!
What a better way to preserve wonderful costumes and memories . I offered a free image to all who treat or treated at my studio. The kids got a treat and a fun
photo!
Toddler Photography Upper East Side, NYC by Nina Drapacz photography
My second year with this family. The baby, now a toddler was able to run around and boy did he run! The wonderful thing about late afternoon light, we could go anywhere without fear of bright sunlight, perfect for a trailing a two year old on the go!
Tween Photography by Nina Drapacz Photography
Tweens are the years right before teens, so about 9 to 12 years. Its a time in a child life that marks the last of the innocence and the impatience to independence. Many of the tweens I photograph are children I had been photographing since they were babies. I had the pleasure of seeing them grow up which is special.
Twins in Tuxedo NY by Nina Drapacz Photography
I have been photographing these twins for a couple of years in the West Village in NYC and now in their home in the country. Their stunning dog was in all his glory as were the girls in this gorgeous country setting!
Beautiful Sisters in Watermill, NY by Nina Drapacz Photography
It was the perfect time of day when the sun is low and golden. Two gorgeous girls who I have photographed
for a few years greeting me at the door, the rest is history! A fun photo shoot for the girls, the parents and me! I had a hard time choosing my favorites for this blog - I don't know how their parents will choose the images for their holiday and wall!
Tribeca Family Photo Shoot by Nina Drapacz Photography!
I had a special request to meet and photograph a family in Tribeca as they were moving to the suburbs and wanted to document their family in the neighborhood they had lived for many years. We walked to a street where, apparently, many photographers use for all kinds of photo shoots. It was incredible! There was a man with an easel there painting, very European AND very New York in every way... I asked them to set the baby down on the dirty hard concrete, they willingly agreed- and out came these images! In one of the images, the baby's expression seems to be saying, "W
hat? My parents just put me down alone on this hard dirty floor???!"
Newborn Indoor Photography in New York City by Nina Drapacz
As I was listening to a grandmother's anticipation of the impending birth of her first grandchild, in comes her neighbor with a gorgeous newborn girl -what a beautiful little baby! I had just my phone on me, no business cards I thought but luckily I had one card tucked inside my phone case and viola-
I had the opportunity to photograph this little gem the next day! She slept for just a few minutes, but enough time to capture exactly what her parents and I wanted!
I love photographing babies and children who live in the same building- so easy to commute to work!
