DOCUMENTARY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY IN NEW YORK
THE STORY OF YOUR FAMILY'S LIFE IS NOT JUST ABOUT THE BIG EVENTS...
It's about the in-between moments, the incongruous ones, the moments of connection. YOUR LIFE - with all its joy, curiosities, exhaustion, bouts of craziness and moments of silence.
THIS IS NOT A PORTRAIT SESSION
Documentary Family Photography is journalistic take on the family photo shoot. It is unposed and undirected. I capture authentic moments of connection and relationships in your family, as I tell the story of your every day but exceptional life.
This type of shoot requires nothing from you other than that you be yourselves, and go about your day as a family.

WHO IS DEBORAH BARAK?
Makes sense that you would want to know a little more about me before giving me unfettered access to photograph the private moments of your life.
Well, to start:
- At just 5 feet tall, you might find me climbing on your furniture to get the shot, but I also melt into the background quite easily!
- I have an elusive accent that will take you by surprise when I say certain words
- Dark, dark chocolate please. And thank you.
