The Best Baby Shower






Connecticut baby showers can be sort of fun. You get to watch the "mom to be" open presents so everyone can "ooh" and "ahhh" over how tiny everything is. You have to play embarrassingly silly games even if you don't really want to. Then afterwards during a light meal of wraps and fruit salad, the women sit around and discuss all things baby. So that's what I was expecting when I went to photograph a baby shower in Queens, NY...




The ice sculpture that greeted you when you arrived at the shower was hysterical!





There were lots of toasts of well wishes and love...




Teenagers dance at baby showers in Queens...




Everyone gets down in Queens! (do they say "gets down" anymore?)







One more shot of the ice sculpture...




Besides fun, the love in the room was extraordinary. 
 Here is a picture of Soleil kissing her aunt's belly and then asking if her new
 baby cousin can feel her kiss.





The best part of a baby shower in Queens, NY is no one wants to leave!
