I do weddings and Bar Mitzvahs too

This weekend, we were up in New Jersey to visit family for a few days. We also made a little trip into Manhattan so Lennie could get his shoulder checked out by the doctor. We took little Ella Beans with us and I swore I would get a picture of her first trip to NYC. Unfortunately, I didn't remember to take any pictures until exactly 2 seconds before we headed into the Lincoln Tunnel to go back to New Jersey.





Here is a fabulous picture of the sign that says "Lincoln Tun" as seen from the passenger's window of the minivan.


A parting shot of the city as we head into the tunnel with a bonus view of the side of the minivan. And, just inside that open window is...



what happens when you reach back from the front seat to take a picture of a baby in a rear-facing carseat. This is the awesome picture I have of Ella's first trip to New York City, although technically we were somewhere underneath the Hudson River when I took it.

LMAO.
Can I hire you?
Oh sheesh, isn't it a terrible feeling, when you forget to photo those big moments?
I forgot to do a "First Day of School" picture this year. And I just realized it. We may go up to school and "fake it" this weekend.

At least you got her before you crossed the bridge, right? Are you any good with Photoshop? I think you need to get cracking on that picture of Ella at the Statue of Liberty.... she'll never know.

Those are absolutely classic. Thank you for making me feel a little bit better about myself today! PS...while scrolling down your post slowly, I only saw the top of what I didn't know was Ella's hairy head - at first I thought you had a close up shot of some New Yorker's hairy plumber ass!! OMG! Thank you Ella!

Seriously. If I had a nickel for every precious moment of my kids that I didn't document on film (but wanted to), Warren Buffet would be my bitch.

And now, whenever I kiss Ella's hairy head, I will envision New York hairy plumbers crack. Thanks a lot, Susan.

It still cracks me up that you're driving a minivan. That is all.

Just be sure to remember the little people when this photography business of your blows up like I expect it will.
