Dawn and Jimmy in Central Park

— or click here —
for Dawn and Jimmy’s family session in Central Park.
Be sure to turn up the sound. When the slide show is finished, it will jump back here where you can answer a tree-related contest question and win them an 8×10 print. Have fun!
This picture might seem posed, but it’s not. It’s exactly how the family had been waiting for me to arrive. I love when that happens!
I got several nice portraits of this family. (LOVE Central Park benches!)
And some nice “unportraits” too. I love this one. It’s one of my favorites of the whole session.
This is my second-favorite.
And even though it’s posed, I rather like this one too!
I love this sort of picture because of the simple detail in the prices on the wall. In 30 years, the kids might be interested to see that a bagel with butter cost $1.50.
I love the “mom” shots.
But this one is really special. Look how Jacqueline is looking into her mother’s eyes.
Love the karate jump, JJ!
And Jacqueline caught some MAJOR air!
We stepped inside the Conservatory Garden for a minute, but there were bees EVERYWHERE! (Do you see it?)
I had so much fun with this family. They were genuinely good-natured and fun-loving, yet relaxed and sweet with each other and with me. If I could make a video to show people how a family photo session ought to be, it would feature this family! You guys were great!
Now here’s the contest question
Name a type of tree that is common in the northern part of Central Park, is not native and is thought to have become a pest. I’ll give you a hint. A tree with heights up to 60 feet, it is considered a legume.

Dawn, you’re GOOD! But you’re not supposed to answer your own contest question!!!
But that’s ok, since you guys were SO WONDERFUL on your shoot, I’m giving it to you anyway. So, everybody thank MOM for winning you an 8×10!
Oh, and thanks Diana! I was pretty happy with how this one turned out too!
