This morning is a beautiful one here in NYC. Not only did the clouds roll in, cooling off the hot city streets, but it brought refreshing rain and an opportunity to meet Joel, his beautiful wife Sury, and their beautiful newborn baby girl!
Joel Meisels (or as I like to say the “face of Adorama“) and I have been online friends for a while but had not managed to connect at the conventions and industry events until now! We joked about not knowing when to meet up with Joel because they were expecting any minute, and sure enough the hospital ended up being the best meeting place!
Born yesterday afternoon just after 4:30PM EST, she weighed in at 6 lbs 13 oz and will be given her name on the coming Sabbath.
This was my first hospital newborn session, and also the youngest baby I’ve ever had the honor to photograph! She’s not yet 1 day old!
Proud parents!
I was amazed how bright-eyed and alert she was! Love this one!
Love the baby-details (dad’s hands)
(mom’s)
Pretty in Pink
Time to get bundled up to go back to the nursery…
All smiles again!

Congratulations and many blessings Joel and Sury!!
