It was a pleasure to meet these sweet sisters at a recent baby and child photography session. Not only are they beautiful, they are a lot of fun too. Sisters are different flowers from the same garden. Big sister is very spunky and little sister is mellow and loves to watch her big sister in action. We had a great time capturing these gorgeous girls. Enjoy the photos! :)

Blog Carousel – Inspiration NJ Baby and Child Photographer:

This is another installment of Blog Carousel, Inspiration. Blog Carousel is a project I participate in with some of the best baby photographers in the world. Once a month a theme is chosen and each participating photographer creates a blog post based on her interpretation. This month’s theme is Inspiration.

I have always loved photos and photography. Photography has been a lifetime hobby for me. After the birth of my children I became even more obsessed with photos and photography. My own children inspired me more than anything in life. I have enjoyed capturing their childhood years with my professional cameras,my point and shoot, and even my iphone. Childhood is so fleeting and I cherish the photos I have of them during these years.

On a recent vacation to Southern California I captured this image of my 8 year old daughter on the beach at sunset. This image epitomizes her personality and spirit. I plan on printing this in a large canvas for my home. Capturing images that I love is a true inspiration to me.

“You are the poem I dreamed of writing, the masterpiece I longed to paint. You are the shining star I reached for in my ever hopeful quest for life fulfilled. You are my child. Now with all things I am blessed.” –Unknown

Beautiful Family, Bergen County NJ Child and Family Photographer

I had a great time meeting up with this beautiful family again for a family photography session at their home in Bergen County NJ. Last time I saw them was for a baby photography session when big brother was only five months old. He has grown a lot but, as you can see, he still has that huge, gorgeous smile. :)

We had a lovely evening for our session and a lot of fun and laughs. Watching families grow and babies becoming children is a part of my job that I love. Such an honor to capture these fleeting moments for my clients.

Children and Family Photography, Family Photographer NJ

What a blast I had at this beautiful family photography session at their home in New Jersey. We had a lovely summer evening for our portrait session. The boys were a lot of fun and full of great expressions. I love so many of the photos from this session so it was hard to choose which ones to show on the blog. I love the strong bond they have and how they love to laugh together which I hope I captured well in the images from this family photography session. At the end of our session the boys took a dip in the pool. How cool is that? As you can see they had a great time. They were an absolute pleasure to photograph.

Enjoy the images. :)

Summer’s evening light is so beautiful and perfect for doing children and family photography! Please contact Tara McGlinchey, Family Photographer NJ, for more information on booking a children and family photography session.

Blog Carousel – Everyday Stories

I am very honored to be part of a project taken on by some of the finest children’s photographers in the world called The Blog Carousel. Once a month a theme is chosen and each participating photographer creates a blog post based on her interpretation of the theme. We have covered several themes including Laughter and Framed. This month’s theme is Everyday Stories. I decided to focus on my daughter playing softball.

My eight year old daughter plays on team for a summer softball league. Learning how to play the game and having fun with her teammates puts a big smile on her face. As a photographer, people assume that I have tons of beautiful photos of my own children. The truth is, most of my family photos exist on my iPhone. Busy with life and work, I rarely have the time to photograph my kids. Being the team photographer has forced me to document this experience for my daughter. The everyday story of Katie playing softball the summer when she was 8.

The toys kids get for their birthdays or the holidays come and go. What really sticks with children and helps them learn and grow is their life experiences. I think it’s very important to document the everyday stories that make up a childhood. I hope that my daughter looks at these photos in the future to recall the happy memories of everyday stories during the summer of 2012.
