Bucks County Family Portraits

Ann Marie is a good friend of ours and she also shoots wedding videos with us! Her daughter turned one recently and as a birthday gift (well more of a gift to mamma & poppa I guess) I spent the afternoon photographing Ann Marie’s beautiful family.
This is Seanie’s 2nd appearance on the 217 Photography blog as well. I photographed little Sean almost two years ago when he was just a little dude. Thanks for having me Ann Marie. Your family is beautiful and I am happy and privileged to be able to document their childhood.

Max at 7 Months

Pete Malone — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 16:50:17 +0000

I recently did a newborn photo session and when I came home I was inspired to take some photos of our own little guy, Max. He’s almost 7 months old now and just (like 2 minutes ago) started crawling. Well it was more like scooting…..and it was backwards. But the boy is now mobile! Our cats better start running….at least Pomes might loose some weight.

Samuel is new around here. He was born just before Christmas. Sam’s mom Kate is actually our son Max’s pediatrician. She has been so kind and helpful towards Dawn and I as we learn the ropes of being new parents. From our very first visit to her office several months ago Kate, set Dawn and I at ease and made us feel very comfortable. We are lucky to have found such a caring and patient doctor to look after our little guy and to take the time to answer any and all of our “new parent” questions.

One recent morning I photographed Kate and her husband Randy’s new (and adorable) baby boy Samuel along with his big sister who was super excited to have her photo taken. These are a few of my favorite images from that shoot. Welcome to the world Samuel!

Ann Marie, Sean and mini-Sean

Ann Marie & Dawn work together as 8th grade reading teachers at a local middle school. So, when Ann Marie and her husband Sean were thinking of having some photos done of their young family they didn’t really have too far to look. I was happy that they asked me to come to their home and photograph baby Sean shortly after his first birthday. We spent a couple of hours together shooting in and around their home on a gorgeous spring evening. It was great to hang with Ann Marie and both Seans (big & miniature). Thanks for having me guys. Enjoy your photos!

I think this was Sean’s reaction to an airplane passing overhead.

A very inquisitive look for such a young man.

Dawn pointed out how Sean and Sean Jr. have the EXACT same expression in this photos. Ha! They do!

I normally don’t ask anyone to get naked on their shoot. But little Sean seemed like he would be cool with it. So off came the clothes.

And then we finished the evening off with a wagon ride up and down the street.

This one is my personal favorite of the day.

Roviellos, Richardsons & Famas!

This past weekend I was invited over to the home of Rick & Christine to photograph their family and grandson William. Rick & Christine’s daughter Cara had contacted me to shoot this family portrait session as a gift for her parents’ 60th birthday. In fact on Saturday, the day of the shoot, it actually WAS Christine’s birthday! What better way to spend a birthday than with all of your family hanging out, relaxing, spending time together and in the case of the Roviellos….cooking and eating! Thank you to Cara for having me out for the day. And thank you so much to the Roviellos, the Richardsons and the Famas for making my job so easy and enjoyable. I had a lot of fun with you all. Thank you for inviting me into your home and making me feel so welcome. I hope you enjoy these photos!

The birthday girl.

I had the privileged to document the making of a Roviello family traditional recipe for “Veal Birds”. Surprisingly there was lots of veal but no bird involved in the dish. I can actually almost taste these delicious treats when I look at this photo. So good!

The next item on the menu was Oregenata. Here Cara and her sister Tina are rolling out the dough for the Oregenata.

6 month old William soon took over the focus of the afternoon with his antics.

Proud grandparents.

!!CAUTION!! If you make a funny face during our shoot, it WILL get blogged!

And from here on out, Will kinda stole the show with cuteness.

The former Roviello girls, Tina & Cara.

Avery’s 1st Birthday Photos!

Avery is 1! And what better to celebrate the milestones of life than with a portrait session? After all, I was there when Avery was just 2 weeks old, so why not be a part of her 52nd week on the planet as well?Avery’s parents Jess & Andrew (good friends of ours as well) invited me over this past weekend for some portraits to celebrate Avery’s first birthday. The adults had a chance to catch up, Avery got a new dress from Dawn and I and best of all, nobody cried! Happy birthday Avery. Congratulations. Let’s do it again next year, shall we?

Kristen and I went to high school together a long time ago. Dawn and Kristen played on the same field hockey team back then too. We hadn’t seen each other since then either! Just the other week Kristen and her family secured a beautiful location in Kimberton, PA as the site for their family photos. There was plenty of farmland to use as backdrops and even some goats! I had a pleasure photographing you guys. I hope you and your families enjoy these photos, Kristen. Hi to Mark and the kids.

Let’s let Roman start things off!

Bella enjoying some dirt.

I think Lauren had just turned 7 weeks old.

Goats!!!

Abby & Jake

Just the other week I met up with Becky and her two little ones, Abby & Jake. We spent a few hours together playing at the playground, snaking and just a wee bit of crying….but I pulled it together sooner than later and dried up my tears for the good of the shoot! I hope you like the photos of the kids, Becky! They were a lot of fun. Hopefully we can do it again soon!

Abby & Mommy.

Nobody was happy that we were leaving the playground.
