Connecticut newborn and family photographer

THE MOments

 

Hello and welcome! I am so glad you stopped by. I specialize in newborn, baby, family, maternity and lifestyle portraiture.

My studio is based out of the beautiful quiet corner of Northeastern, Connecticut and I photograph families throughout Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and beyond.

To me, photography is not only about capturing beautiful images, it's about remembering the moments.

Ever since I was a little girl, I was awed by the beauty of my surroundings. I daydreamed about the beautiful weeping willow and the make believe kingdom under its thick drooping branches. I would lay on my trampoline at night and count the twinkling stars, waiting patiently for a chance to catch the travels of a special shooting star. I loved and still love to sit on the beach, watch the sun disappear behind the sea and gaze at the colors of the sunset sky. I think that ability to see and appreciate this beautiful world at such a young age, inspired me to start documenting it with my camera; that moment when time and light dance together to create that perfect image.

My hope is that you not only see the beauty I see in your photographs, but truly feel the beauty and raw emotions that I experience through my lens while photographing your most precious moments.

Your Connecticut Newborn and Family photographer

I am a mommy to four littles, 2 fur babies and a bun-bun with a Superdad husband. When I am not behind my lens or editing, you might find me picking up one million lego and LOL doll pieces, hiding in the aisles of Target, sipping a cold brew or rearranging my house for the 5 millionth time.
