The Venter
Family

I have been photographing the Venter family for years: their engagement, their wedding, and now the arrival of their first baby, Isla.

For this session they wanted a clean studio feel without dragging a six-month-old across Manhattan, so I brought the studio to them. A full backdrop and lighting setup inside their Midtown apartment meant no travel and no schedule stress, which counts for everything with a six-month-old.

We kept it simple: white backdrop, soft light, and the three of them playing. These are the kind of images that never date.

"We’ve been working with Dylan for over 7 years now, and I honestly can’t imagine trusting anyone else with our family’s most important moments. He is so fun and easy going to be around, which makes every shoot feel relaxed and natural. His eye for detail and ability to capture genuine emotion is truly incredible — the photos are always beyond what we could have hoped for. Dylan has been with us through every stage of life — from engagement and wedding party photos, to maternity and now family pictures — and each time he has given us memories we will treasure forever."
