JOY|CT & Long Island Children’s Photography|Lexi-Bella Photography

What makes you Joyful?

There are so many things that make me feel joyful, a warm spring day after weeks of rain and bitter cold. You know that day, you run around opening all the windows and sit out on your front step for a few minutes basking in that wonderful warm sun letting the warmth sink into your cold bones warming away months of winter cold.  The feel of that fresh, moist young wet grass on your feet and feeling the crisp cool breeze on your face.

But my ultimate joy is being with my little family, doing simple things that warm my heart and soul; capturing and preserving a glimpse with my camera. THIS is what I treasure about what I do; that I can capture these intimate little moments not only for myself but others. It’s not about the dress, or tu-tu, hair-bows or props. It’s not the spectacular location and manicured gardens. It’s simple. A little neighborhood park tucked away in Connecticut, a little girl, a swing and a daddy with arms that can push her to soar in the sky and make her feel like she can *FLY*

THIS is what I do, THIS is the meaning of my work…………………………….

Waiting for daddy………

Where is he??

getting ready to *FLY*

…… and “WE ARE OFF”!!

JOY

higher, Higher, HIGHER……

and one in color, ’cause daddy loves COLOR!

2 minutes|CT & Long Island Children’s Photography|Lexi-Bella Photography

A good friend of mine was in from CO last week with her little one. Her husband and mine were childhood friends and we both met right after high school so basically we grew into adults together. It was crazy weird to sit and look at our two girls together and realize they were ours! Even funnier was looking at our girls who are practically the spitting images of their dads except for long hair!

Miss. A. wasn’t very interested in pictures but rather wanted to spend the time hanging out in the playroom with “Lexi-Bella” so she pretty much gave me, oh, TWO MINUTES to work my magic! I got a few and she was adorable for two minutes, then got up walked over to the door and say “DONE”!

“Ok, I guess we are done”! No messing with this 2 year old!

Luv and miss  Ya “T” and “A”…. You HAVE TO MOVE BACK!!!!!
