Family portrait photography sessions connecticut

hi.

I am so excited to have you here!

The magic of childhood is what makes me live and breathe for my job, and if I had to pick a genre I loved most this would totally be it.

​My approach is a little different to your typical mini-shoots and traditional family portraits, as you'll probably see from my galleries. At this time I don't offer extended family shoots, as I work with a particular focus on the intimate relationships between young children and their parents(/guardians) for a more narrative experience.
​

Normally we stuff our kids in starched shirts and ironed dress pants and drag them by the ears to a photography studio, but what if there was another way – One where they'll actually have fun. 
And one where you'll all get to be yourselves! This approach to family portraits is truly one-of-a-kind.

​I take my family sessions as an opportunity to explore and interact with the environment together, which results in less posed headshots and more so as a documentary perspective to how you connect with your little ones while having an adventure. There's also no need to stress over what to wear or where to order it from; I sit down and personally design unique style boards just for you and track down adorable options from a whole database of well-loved shops for a more elevated experience (and poetic results!)

I love bare muddy toes and little fingers picking flowers, butterfly kisses and cuddling in the grass, so if you're looking for a more organic, emotive approach to family photos, then you're exactly where you need to be.
