Mohonk anniver­sary pho­tog­ra­phy is one of our favorite fam­i­ly por­trait ses­sions, not only for the great loca­tion but also because these are usu­al­ly occa­sions where extend­ed fam­i­lies get togeth­er to cel­e­brate the love of their par­ents.  Almost always there are grand­chil­dren involved, and we get a chance to cre­ate children’s portraiture.

Recent­ly, we spent an after­noon with the Bird­sall fam­i­ly up at Mohonk for their par­ents’ 50th anniversary.

A nor­mal part of our cov­er­age is to cap­ture a large fam­i­ly group pho­to in a strate­gic loca­tion — this image below is on the bal­cony out­side Mohonk’s Vic­to­ri­an Parlor.

We then break down this large group shot into small­er, indi­vid­ual fam­i­ly shots.

Our clients always want sep­a­rate pho­tos of their small­est chil­dren, and that’s when we take them aside to cre­ate sin­gle por­traits, like these below.

And no anniver­sary ses­sion is com­plete with­out a shot of grand­par­ents with all their grand­chil­dren togeth­er, which is a moment we real­ly love to pho­to­graph.  There is always a pride that shines through, mak­ing these images a per­fect way to cel­e­brate a mile­stone anniver­sary at one of the most impres­sive resorts.
