My nephew Seth has arrived! After waiting so long for this moment to come, he decided to make his appearance a few weeks earlier than we had anticipated. We're all so happy that he's here. Mom and baby are perfectly healthy and doing great! I can't wait for him to come home, so I can photograph his newborn session! But of course, I had to take about a million photos at the hospital.
If you don't know, a Fresh 48 is a photo session that takes place in the hospital within the first 2 days of a baby's life. This is to document the very special moments just after baby's arrival without actually being in the delivery room. I don't specialize in these types of sessions, but since Seth is my sister Lisa's first baby, I had to document every moment I could. Harsh hospital light is definitely a challenge, so I have a whole new respect for the talented photographers who specialize in this area!
OK, let's get to the good stuff.
Welcome Seth Anthony Horton!

Seth is the absolute picture of my sister Lisa when she was born. Everyone who sees him says he looks exactly like her. It's so wonderful to see how happy she and my brother in law Will are to welcome their son. Seth is my mom's first grandchild and my grandmother's first great-grandchild, so this is an incredibly special moment for our family. He is going to be so fiercely loved. Here are some more of my favorite photos of Seth's first 48 hours.

Summer is in full swing here on Long Island, which means beach days for a lot of us. But there's a whole lot more to summer than just the beach. Every season, I put together a photo checklist for my email list subscribers, to make sure their yearly photo album has a lot of variety.
Summer was so magical when I was a kid. I remember going in my grandma's pool every day, eating hot dogs from the grill and walking around the yard barefoot (until the day I stepped on a slug...flip flops from there on out). Believe me, your kids will want to remember these summer days in the future, when this season is more about high gas prices and less about blessed summer vacation! Make sure they've got a lot of summer memories to look back on.

Emily and Thomas are really used to me sticking my camera lens in their faces. I've been photographing their family since little Emily was christened. If you've visited this blog before, you've probably seen the Cameron family at some point. Their grandma Emily (little Emily's namesake) has been friends with my mom since they were in 1st grade. Grandma Emily thought it would be a fun idea to bring little Emily and Thomas to the beach for a photo session to give to their mom Erin for her birthday. They're a big beach family and little Emily especially loves mermaids, so this was a perfect opportunity to get her tail on and visit the shore!
They, of course, did an excellent job because they know by now that when I'm around, it's time to break out their serious modeling skills. Here are my favorite photos from the session!
