I recently got together with an amazing group for a family portrait session at Perona Farms in Sparta, NJ. I have many fond memories at this location – where my best friend got married, where my family spent a couple Easter brunches, and now a place that will remind me of this portrait session!

This session was planned by the husband and kept mostly a secret from the wife, as a surprise. Without knowing what to expect, the whole family had a great time! The kids were so well behaved and enthusiastic. We chased each other around, played tag, jumped in the air, and they were up for any posing ideas I had in mind. These kids were awesome and kept a smile on their face the whole time!

We walked around and created backgrounds of the tall pine trees, the island in the pond with the beautiful white birch tree and of course at their iconic barn.

Here are some of the many highlights of our Portrait Session:

When I saw that she brought along her American Girl Doll, I knew I had to capture some images of her and her baby!
