Welcome to my blog. This is the place I post my latest work, get your feedback and keep you updated with what's going on at Dini Groner Photography. My style as a photographer is very natural, I let kids be themselves and see where they lead me while I attempt to capture the beauty of the spontaneous. The result is timeless images of fleeting moments in childhood that become a keepsake for years to come.
I'm located in beautiful Rockland County, New York, just 45 minutes north of NYC. I love taking photos on location but in the colder winter months I have a studio.
I love to travel and I'm available for location sessions just about anywhere in the world.
Thanks for visiting,
Dini

Creating a Photo Collage
By Naomi Weinstein
Completing a photo shoot with Dini is just the beginning. The next step in the process of documenting your family is selecting which shots to print, in what sizes, and where to hang them in your home. I’m often asked to assist my interior design clients in mapping out their photos in a way which showcases the pictures as well as complements their homes.
Stacey had done several photo shoots with Dini over the past few years but had yet to hang anything on the wall. With a stack of prints we set out to create an eclectic collage which would best capture her family.
We began by mapping out an arrangement of photos using different size prints with space to add non-photo decorative elements. With our prints and layout in hand we headed to the store to choose frames.
Using a combination of custom and off-the-shelf frames we assembled a scheme with a variety of styles in unifying color tones.
Recreating the sketched layout on the wall took some effort but the results were worthwhile
It’s that time of year again – I am offering a session to one lucky winner thru the Ohr V’daas Chinese Auction.
Please help support Ohr V’Daas by coming to the event, Tuesday, November 8, you will not be disappointed (hint: come hungry).
If you can’t make it you can order tickets online.
Ohr V’daas is a Special Ed school in Rockland County that services children with special needs. They are incredibly devoted to each and every child and they would like to be able to accept more students but their building is too small. They are desparately in need of a new building and since they are a religious school they can only get minimal funding so proceeds from events like the Chinese Auction directly impact each child.

I love summer portraits.
There is nothing like the gorgeous outdoors as a background for the family portraits.
There are some terrific locations that I love to use and I’m always looking for new exciting places.
Here we are at a train station.
Tamar & Daniel are ready to see the world.

Summer already? I’m not ready.
My oldest daughter graduated High School.
My oldest son graduated Elementary School.
I can feel the winds change, ‘the times they are a-changing’, to quote Bob Dylan
And since the song is in my head, here are the words, but whatever you want to say about Dylan, he is a poet first.
Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don’t criticize
What you can’t understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin’
Please get out of the new one
If you can’t lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin’.
Denial will not help me with this one, it’s happening whether I like it or not.
I scheduled a photo session for my family, to record us as we are NOW, before the shifting of the family unit as we know it today.
That is what photography mean to me, preserving the today for tomorrow.
Here is a share from the session with Stephanie Badini.
It was a great experience being on the other side of the lens
