Prospect Park’s Natural Exploration Area is one of my favorite outdoor gems in all of Brooklyn, so anytime a family is game to photograph there, I happily oblige! The objects create interesting elements without being obtrusive, and the light diffused through the trees is just divine. These three beautiful souls pictured were some of my most effortlessly joyful subjects, and our afternoon in the park felt more like a hangout than a shoot—the best kind, if you ask me. (In related news, I’ve got a major case of baby fever after spending time with their delightful bundle—those smiles came so naturally, and I’m totally in love!)
