Portrait of a Happy Birthday!

2012-02-26T09:52:00.000-08:00

Another stunning birthday girl in our studio! We love capturing the innocence and pensiveness of childhood, so that you have a memory of it forever. Our lovely model was relaxed and excited to celebrate her special day with us!

PURIM is March 8th

2012-02-21T09:49:00.000-08:00

with the donation of a NEW book to go to "Bergen Reads", you can receive a complimentary portrait of your child in their Purim costume! Call the studio for more information!

Another Wonderful Family Tradition we were Proud to Capture!

2012-02-19T07:40:00.000-08:00

This is Tani at 9 days old and now at a 'big boy' one year! He is so beautiful and his blue eyes just draw you in. His mom and dad have brought all his siblings into our studio for their early childhood portraits and have continued throughout the years. The outfit Tani is wearing has been in the family for over 100 years! Each grandchild (like the previous generations before) is photographed wearing it. This is a decades-long tradition.

Start your own family custom today and schedule a Studio Session. It is never too early

to create those memories--Tani's oldest brother just celebrated his Bar Mitzvah and his parents still remark that they are so grateful that because of our portraiture they will always have a remembrance of those early times.

We Love Siblings!

2012-02-14T07:32:00.000-08:00

These three siblings were a delight in our studio--relaxed and comfortable with each other. We photographed them together in a variety of poses

and they never lost their enthusiasm. It is our joy to produce heirloom portraiture that

someday they will take into their homes to display for their children.

Call us today to set up an appointment to create an image that you will cherish

through the years!

Can you say Handsome?

2012-02-12T07:17:00.000-08:00

Thomas is a graduating High-School Senior and visited our Studio to commemorate this particular time in his life. We were able to provide this heirloom image and several others to make a small album--his Family is so happy and

so is his girlfriend!

Baby Steps :)

2012-02-07T08:27:00.000-08:00

This little sweetheart came in to be photographed with her grandparents and her brother. At the end of the session, we got Grandma and Mom

to hold her hands and we captured this image of elation and accomplishment!

Furry Friend

2012-01-31T07:16:00.000-08:00

"Kichi" means 'small' in Hungarian. This little guy's 'parents' wanted a portrait for their Dental office because Kichi is the official greeter for all the patients. Since his favorite food is chicken, we used those treats to capture these images during the session. You can see how sweet he is posing for our camera in a holiday themed bow-tie!

What a BEAUTY!!

2012-01-29T09:45:00.000-08:00

Melissa came in for her Complimentary Birthday Session and Print last month! We have been photographing her since she was a baby and she has grown into a beautiful and poised young lady--and those eyes have always captured our attention!

PRECIOUS!

2012-01-24T08:11:00.000-08:00

This little "pretty in pink" package came to our studio when she was 12 days old! She slept like a little angel and we were able to capture an array of images that will forever be a reminder of the precious individuality of a new life.

UPDATE~additional assistance for Navajo trip!

2012-01-22T08:37:00.000-08:00

Just a reminder:

For those of you who have contributed items or checks towards my visit to the Navajo Reservation, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know everything will be greatly appreciated and I will report back to all of you when I return.

I do need all donations in by Sunday, January 29th, as I need to pack everything up and have it weighed. I am in the process of speaking with companies about shipping it all for a substantially reduced rate. If anyone has any ideas or connections, please let me know, I would be very grateful for the assistance.

Also, if you would like to volunteer to assist in packing everything collected (and I could use some more big boxes), you can give me a call or e-mail me (201.692.1892, lyn@lynofrane.com). We will be doing it on Tuesday, January 31st.

If you have not seen the original letter, or wish to be reminded of what the kids need, read below. Thanks so much, Lyn

Family Traditions

2012-01-22T07:20:00.000-08:00

This is Levi as a newborn, as a 1 year old and now as a 5 years old! I remember so clearly when his mama brought him in to our studio a handful of years ago. She has an heirloom album of the first twelve months of his life (we call them yearbooks!) and now she has trusted us to photograph him in this special outfit that his three brothers before him have worn as they entered their fifth year. We love our families and their traditions!

Newborn Bliss

2012-01-10T10:50:00.000-08:00

The deep sleep of a 12 day old newborn is breathtaking in what reveries it evokes in our consciousness. Innocence, trust and the dawning of a new life and all its possibilities!

Little Kingston

2011-12-28T08:39:00.001-08:00

Little Kingston was 11 days old when we were lucky enough to meet him and his momma. He did not close his eyes during the whole session, too curious about the world around him! We were able to create this moment of peace as a keepsake for his family and a memory for the future.

Caelan, Drew and Aislinn

2011-12-21T07:21:00.000-08:00

Caelan, Drew and Aislinn were so caring and gentle with each other during our session--they just glowed with confidence. "Siblings are the people we practice on, the people who teach us about fairness and kindness and cooperation." Love that quote!

Sisters

2011-12-17T05:52:00.000-08:00

These sisters came to have a wonderful time in the studio and their whimsically fun and spunky spirit comes through in these images! This close relationship will expand and mature throughout their lives, but they will always have these memories to cherish!

2011-12-15T04:39:00.000-08:00

If you are interested in donating, you can call or e-mail the studio. Thanks!

Ryan and Jason

2011-12-14T06:17:00.000-08:00

Ryan and Jason have been photographed in our studio from the time they were born. They have moved away from this area, but their mom continues to bring them to the studio for updated portraits--and it is a special treat for us to see them sprout up and mature. They are brothers who take care of each other and get along beautifully--a nod to their wonderful parents! We thank them for allowing us to create a photographic record of their growing years. When these boys become men these images will convey a reminder of the closeness they shared in their childhood.

Memories for the Future

2011-12-10T06:50:00.000-08:00

We have been photographing Jack and Matt since they were born. This year their Mom wanted to create a reminder of the important and cherished relationship they share with their Grandmother. You can see by the expressions on all their faces that we succeeded in bringing her wish to fruition. Generational portraits are an important tradition at our Studio because they will be a lasting memory for the future.

2011-12-08T15:34:00.000-08:00

I am volunteering with RBARI (Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc.) in Oakland to take photographs of the dogs for their adoption images on line at Petfinders and Facebook. A beautiful portrait that captures the spirit of the animal assists in more quickly finding a forever home. Here are seven of them that were adopted this past week. If you have any questions or are interested in adopting a dog or puppy, call the shelter or call me and I will direct you to the correct place!

This Halloween's Baby Basics Program

2011-12-07T00:36:00.000-08:00

These are three of the many Halloween-ers who dropped by to the Studio with diapers and formula for the Baby Basics Program for Children's Aid and Family Services in Ridgewood. Then we photographed them in their costumes and all their parents will be receiving complimentary portraits for their generosity!

We open the Studio each year for this event, so if you were not able to pop on over this time, there is always next year! And a special thanks to all the moms and dads who came by a second time as on Halloween weekend, we had snow and no electricity!!

A Surprise Photo

2011-12-03T12:11:00.000-08:00

Mom decided to do a portrait as a surprise for her Hubby! When he sees these two cutie-pie faces nestling into their mama--he will be thrilled and proud to have this image as a reminder of the innocence of childhood and the love of a child for a parent.

A Family Heirloom

2011-11-30T05:16:00.000-08:00

This definition of 'Family' says it all!! We were thrilled this young couple and their children sat for an Heirloom portrait. Someday the kids will display it for their children and the continuity and memory of this important tradition will be handed down to a new generation.

Daniel and Carolyn

2011-11-23T04:51:00.001-08:00

This is such a busy time of year for the Studio. And we especially enjoy seeing sibling groups or families come together to make a special memory. We try to capture the spirit and personality of each individual so that we can create an heirloom portrait that will be remembered for generations.

Top Spot Found a Home!!

2011-11-22T19:14:00.000-08:00

We are so excited to report that Top Spot will be having a very Happy Thanksgiving in her new home!!

Topspot

2011-11-19T11:44:00.000-08:00

This 7 month old Jack-Russell puppy has so much love to give! She is sweet and cuddly and thrives on walks and exercise. She is waiting for her forever home at the RBARI animal pet shelter where I volunteer. If you or anyone else you know is looking to 'adopt some love'--feel free to give them a call at 201-337-5180.

Brian and Lauren

2011-11-16T05:23:00.000-08:00

Another important moment to pop in at your favorite portrait studio is when one of your young adults is a senior year in high school or getting ready to go off to college. At some point in the very near future, it will not so easy to gather your children together as they begin to control their lives and destinies apart from their nuclear family. Brian and Lauren were wonderful subjects and we were able to create a photograph that their parents will have forever to remind them of this particular time in their young lives.

Adorable Siblings

2011-11-12T07:55:00.000-08:00

These five adorable siblings came to our studio recently and we had lots of fun with them! They were so loving and caring about each other--it was quite touching . We created portraits of them alone and in pairs and all the hugging and big smiles were genuine and here are the results!! It is so important to capture the relationships between brothers and sisters--the memories will bring such pleasure to them in the future when they are moms and dads themselves. And in the meantime the busy parents of these cuties have heirloom portraits for their walls to enjoy every day!

Families are LOVE!

2011-11-09T05:57:00.001-08:00

Families are LOVE! We have been photographing these little ones since they were born--Jane and I just adore these three little boys. Their mom and dad are funny and delightful and never take anything too seriously, especially when one of the kids decides to act up. All five of them are full of spirit and life and glee and we just enjoy our sessions with them to the fullest. After we are done with the sitting there are always sticky hugs and wet kisses for us as we walk out of the studio. It is such a privilege to follow them as they grow from babies to toddlers to conversational beings.

Don't put off a portrait session and let the years slip by when they will no longer fit on your laps!

THANK YOU!!

2011-11-08T09:08:00.000-08:00

Sending a HUGE "Thank You" to all of you who donated diapers and formula for our Kids helping Kids Halloween Event! We had so much fun photographing your little trick or treaters. Baby Basics/Children's Aid and Family Services are VERY grateful for the donations!!

Fanny

2011-11-04T21:45:00.001-07:00

We are now photographing dogs from the Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc (RBARI) in Oakland. Devoted volunteers are bringing these beautiful animals to our studio so we can capture their sweetness and energy for their adoption pics. This is Franny who lived in a small cage in a puppy mill for her whole life. She is such a cutie--so many dogs at the shelter need a forever home. If you are interested or know someone who would love to adopt or foster cats or dogs, please contact them at 201-337-5180.

Katie

2011-11-01T22:06:00.000-07:00

Katie came to us recently for a Maternity Session and we utilized her grandmother's shawl. When she gives birth, we will be photographing her little one in that same shawl. A powerful and lovely memory to pass down from generation to generation.

We are now offering Complimentary Maternity AND Newborn Sessions. We will be creating studio books with this portraiture. Please give us a call and we can tell you about the session and gift image you will receive. We would love to hear from you! (201-692-1892)

Zachary

2011-10-29T06:26:00.000-07:00

Zachary was eleven days old when we had the privilege of photographing his first few days in the world. He slept through everything--and his mama and daddy were so very happy with the results! Remember, if you know someone who is ready to give birth, please ask them to call the studio (201-692-1892) as we would like to offer them a complimentary portrait session and image. We would love to produce heirloom portraiture for them and for the 2012 newborn book we are producing for the studio.

David

2011-10-26T13:38:00.000-07:00

David is eleven years old and these portraits were taken on his birthday! After our fun in the studio, he headed for the Bronx Zoo with his mom and a classmate.

David loves animals and his mom loves his portraits, so it was a special day all around for this blonde cutie!

Aiden and Kayla

2011-10-22T08:39:00.001-07:00

Aiden and Kayla are wearing their traditional Korean clothing for Aiden's one year celebration. Their colorful attire will be part of an important memory for their parents. These commemorative moments are so important to record --we believe we will remember the baby faces and the chubby features, the grade school smile with the missing tooth, the college graduate beaming, or the grandparents proudly holding their grandchildren.

But memory fades. Allow us to create heirloom portraiture to document that experience forever. You won't regret it!

Ephraim

2011-10-19T05:39:00.000-07:00

We have been photographing Ephraim and his older siblings from the time he was 3 years old. He just celebrated his Bar Mitzvah and we were thrilled to continue the tradition of creating an heirloom wall portrait and an album for his mom and dad. Someday he will be showing these images to his children (although we are sure he cannot imagine that possibility at this moment) and they will never believe that their dad could ever have been so young! Mazel Tov to the family!

Here are Mia and Ava again!!

2011-10-14T21:24:00.000-07:00

Ava and Mia, photographed for their holiday portraits and cards, certainly know how to strike a pose and show their attitude! Their mom brings headbands and hats and bows--which means we get to play in the studio with these two fun-loving and adorable little girls. We are creating an original holiday card from a variety of the images--one of the services, for no extra charge , we offer at Lyn Ofrane Photography.

Mia and Ava

2011-10-12T05:09:00.000-07:00

Mia and Ava, two of our most fabulous models, came to the studio for their yearly portraits. No matter how old these two lovely young girls become, their parents will never lose the memories of this moment in time, as it is forever documented in these heirloom portraits. These sweeties were totally ready for their close-up!

Please support RBARI Animal Shelter!

2011-10-10T07:44:00.000-07:00

Ramapo Bergen Animal Refuge, Inc. is a no-kill, non profit Animal Shelter located in Oakland, NJ. They are having a Dinner & Tricky Tray event on Wednesday, October 26th at Macaluso's Restaurant in Hawthorne. Please help support this very worthy cause!

Jason and Friends!!

2011-10-07T21:59:00.001-07:00

Jason and his best friends came to our studio this summer. We were able to capture his boyhood, just for a moment, in real time. His mama loved the sensitive emotions it evoked and she assured us she would always cherish these portraits. A boy turns into a man in the wink of an eye--but these heirloom art pieces are forever!

Zach

2011-10-04T21:01:00.000-07:00

Zach is off to college already, but he popped into the studio at the end of June. His mom wanted to have a lasting memory of his senior year, before this next milestone began. In a few years, he may not be available to be photographed for the various reasons that arise when your student leaves the home. So before your children go off in different directions, we truly enjoy creating these heirloom individual and family images for you, our clients.

Sienna

2011-09-30T21:36:00.000-07:00

Miss Sienna gave us quite a challenge, even at 8 days old! Despite these beautiful and serene images, this bundle of energy refused to go to sleep! Her mama and daddy tried everything, but she was just too curious about the world to have any of that........We were lucky to grab these portraits during a small amount of lull time. Can't wait to hear about her teenage years--she is a force to be reckoned with! Jane and I are so privileged to be part of creating the first portraits of a brand new life!

Three Brothers

2011-09-28T12:12:00.000-07:00

Three brothers--all of the personalities just shine right through this portrait! Their parents are hanging this large portrait on the wall to remind them of this fleeting time in their young sons' lives. Soon the faces will be more angular, and in a blink of an eye they will be out the door. Mom and Dad will always have this image to remember a moment in time and this art piece will remain in the family for generations--it is what we love to do!

Emily

2011-09-24T11:32:00.000-07:00

Emily is a wonderful violinist and has performed concerts all over the world. We were enormously proud to create her professional headshots. Her parents and family are so supportive of her love of music even though it takes her far away at times. Emily will be famous someday and then we can say we knew her when!!!

Maura

2011-09-21T05:14:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to little Miss Maura! This is the second time she has visited the studio. Her Mom and Dad had so much fun at her birthday party displaying the beautiful portraits we created for their cutie pie. We are excited to be part of the first twelve months of this precious little girl!

Declan

2011-09-17T11:47:00.000-07:00

This is Declan at 5 months and now he is almost 5 years old! We have been creating heirloom portraiture for his parents since he was born. So much has changed and matured, but those piercing eyes have remained. He has a new brother named Owen (18 months old) and now we have the honor of capturing his early years!

Lauren

2011-09-14T05:14:00.000-07:00

Lauren and her brother (now 3) have been visiting our studio since they were a few days old. We create portrait studies every few months for her first year and then we will produce a 'yearbook' of these milestones. Her baptism dress was fashioned by her grandma and we were thrilled to record it as a gift for her.

Afternoon Songs for Evening Song

2011-09-11T05:33:00.000-07:00

Please read this flyer and come out and support a former Teaneck, NJ resident who was affected by Hurricane Irene... thanks!

Julianne

2011-09-10T17:00:00.000-07:00

Julianne is ethereal in her Communion portrait. Creating photographs of important milestones is a specialty at Lyn Ofrane Photography. We are honored that someday the images in the album, produced for this occasion, will be available for her children to admire!

Ashley

2011-09-07T15:49:00.000-07:00

This is a birth announcement card we created for little Ashley. She posed for us at 11 days old and was a perfect model for her 'close up'!

We will now be designing a yearbook for her Mom and Dad. This means she and her family members will be arriving for portrait sessions throughout the year and after her first birthday, we will create a storybook of those 12 months and the most important people in her life. We can't wait for the adventure to begin!

Jackie

2011-09-03T11:39:00.000-07:00

Jackie is a beautiful and pensive young woman we recently photographed in our studio. We always enjoy an opportunity to create portraits for teenagers and young adults, especially for milestones in their young lives. You can see by her worldly expression, that Jackie was a perfect subject!

Andre

2011-08-30T21:53:00.000-07:00

Andre is 9 months old and we have been photographing him since he was in his mama's tummy! He is such a sweetie that we had to share these recent images from our portrait session. Enjoy!

Griffin

2011-08-27T06:52:00.000-07:00

This is Griffin. We photographed him alone for his 3rd birthday and then we sat him on his Mama's lap and let nature take its course--we kept creating images and then he fell asleep because he was so comfortable and relaxed!

Jane and I love to create heirloom portraits that will be meaningful for generations to come!

Michael

2011-08-24T03:44:00.000-07:00

Michael was only a few days old when we photographed him on this basket. Now he is a strapping and adorable one year old! Happy Birthday big guy!

Jayda

2011-08-19T22:15:00.000-07:00

Jayda was one of our first newborns who came to be photographed when she was a few days old. We have been creating a yearbook of her past 12 months, which also includes her two big sisters. She just celebrated her first birthday in fine colorful fashion!

Jack and Matt

2011-08-17T00:57:00.001-07:00

This is the story of two brothers from 1999 (when Matt was born) until 2010. We have been photographing these 'boyz to men' for most of their lifetime as they are now 16 & 12! They grow up so fast, but their mom and dad have these irreplaceable memories forever. It is our most favorite thing to do--to create collections of images to last for our lifetime and into future generations. Jane and I are so privileged to have this opportunity to do this for all our families. Can't wait to see Jack and Matt in the Fall for their annual portrait session!

Valentino

2011-08-13T07:12:00.000-07:00

This little guy visited us when he was 12 days old and he slept deeply during his first formal portrait session. His mom and dad and big sister are overjoyed with the new addition to their family. With his wonderful name, he is sure to be a heartbreaker!

Kennedy

2011-08-10T03:56:00.000-07:00

Miss Kennedy Leigh was 12 days old when she came to us for her first portrait experience. She is definitely destined to be a fashionista and we cannot wait to find out what outfits she has in store when she visits us again for her three month session! Just remember to tell your friends that we will be happy to host their newborn in the studio for a complimentary session and portrait. Call for details.

Michelle and Suzanne

2011-08-06T11:48:00.000-07:00

We have had the lucky pleasure to photograph Michelle and Suzanne since they were 9 and 3 years old! They have matured into vibrant and very talented young women who make their mom and dad quite proud. We completed a session recently, with the family and their very genteel Grandfather. You can see by the expressions on their faces how loving and close is the relationship. That's what we love to create and elevate in the studio--portraits of the people who live in our hearts!

Spencer's Bar Mitzvah

2011-08-02T21:10:00.000-07:00

We were honored to create an album to celebrate Spencer's Bar Mitzvah! He is an articulate and delightful young man who maintained his composure as we took the time to design an important memory. His parents came along for family portraiture and to commemorate this moment in their son's life. Someday his children will be able to look back at this important rite of passage! Jane and I are so pleased to have been a small part of their personal history.

Katie, Riley, and Aidan

2011-07-30T08:31:00.000-07:00

This is Katie, Riley, and Aidan and as you can see, they are three very different siblings with very different interests. We were able to capture important elements of their childhood and their mother was thrilled!

Malka

2011-07-27T05:50:00.000-07:00

Here is one of our newest models! Little Malka was photographed at our studio just a few days after she was born in April. Here is her first portfolio and we look forward to creating a one year portrait for this little cutie! Welcome to the world little Malka!

Mia and Eva

2011-07-24T16:22:00.000-07:00

Mia and Eva came into our studio the first time as babies, and in May we photographed Mia's Communion! We love when these two little girls visit the studio--we have so much fun!

Sophia

2011-07-20T18:03:00.000-07:00

Beautiful Sophia, came to her very first portrait session under 12 days old! She was fast asleep when we began the session, but then decided to awaken with curious looks around our studio (doesn't usually happen in this age group), so we were lucky to capture her beautiful eyes!

Talia

2011-07-16T06:53:00.000-07:00

Little butterfly, Talia, came to the studio for Halloween. Because her mom and dad donated diapers and formula to The Baby Basics Program of Children's Aid and Family Services (a program we run every year), she received a complimentary image in her costume. She loved being in front of the camera so much, she came back five months later, now a young lady sitting up, and wecaptured a more formal portrait. You could just bite those cheeks!

Kayla

2011-07-13T04:28:00.000-07:00

This is Kayla, one of our sweetest and most often photographed little girls. These images span from three months to three years and you can see how much she has grown! She has her own ‘yearbook’ (the first year of her life photographed with her parents and her grandparents and made into a beautiful book) and now her little brother Aiden is getting ready to finish up his first ‘yearbook’! She is a wonderful big sister and has loving parents, grandparents, and aunts and uncles—many from Korea who pop into our studio whenever they are visiting New Jersey.

Kids Helping Kids

2011-07-10T13:02:00.000-07:00

One of our clients, 13 year old Joseph Horowitz and four of his friends, decided to raise funds for a children's home in Israel.

Baby Nate!

It is so hard to believe that a year has passed since we began photographing newborns. Here is one of our very first models, Nate, when he was just a few days old. He just celebrated his one year milestone and he is such a big boy! Happy Birthday Nate!

Maura

Maura loves dressing up in her tutu and she has the most amazing eyes! We photographed her several months ago in the studio and we will be doing her most important ONE YEAR portrait this month! We cannot wait to see what this fashion expert will be wearing for her close-up!

D’yani

2011-06-29T16:01:00.000-07:00

D’yani has been coming to our studio since she was a little girl. These images from 2007 and 2011 show how she has grown and matured from a soulful sensitive child into a confident and fashionable young girl! We always look forward to her visits and enjoy her mom and her sister, too!

Sadie Belle

2011-06-25T18:18:00.000-07:00

We photographed Miss Sadie Belle just a few days after she was born and her images are the epitome of the classic baby portraits we love to create. She loved her moment in the spotlight as you can see! We even had the privilege of photographing her mama when she was a young teen and we are thrilled to be carrying on the family tradition of fine portraiture!

Raquel

2011-06-22T17:44:00.000-07:00

This is 8 month old Raquel with her mama. We also were lucky enough to photograph them both along with her dad and twin brother and sister in a family portrait!

Alessia and Gianna

We created heirloom albums for Alessia's and Gianna's Communions--beautiful sisters!

Alexis

Alexis' mom just took home her 'yearbook' (an heirloom book we create in the studio as we photograph the baby and any siblings, grandparents, etc. during the first year) a few months after celebrating her first birthday--this is a quick peek at the first 12 months of her life.

Sam

2011-06-12T18:25:00.000-07:00

This is Sam. She started coming to our studio as an infant--her red hair and lovely features are always a delight to photograph!

Baby Sultana!

2011-06-08T17:31:00.000-07:00

This is the lovely Sultana, only days old—so peaceful and relaxed during her portrait session. Such a cutie—we were thrilled to welcome her to our studio!
