• Welcome to my blog!

    Welcome and thank you for visiting my blog! I'm a mom of three and a portrait photographer in Fairfield County, CT specializing in families and head shots.

    I use my blog to share posts about my sessions, announce specials and to share a piece of myself!

    I love to help women feel beautiful from the inside out and to help families take a moment to be fully present and connect with each! I do that through my photography and also through sharing my own struggles here on my blog!

Spring Family Photo Day- Ambler Farm Portraits- Wilton, CT

Back in the saddle! After a few months without Family Photo Days (just regular sessions), I’m back to shooting them! I’ve been doing these events in the Fall for schools and my own clients since 2006 and I love them but they are exhausting! Today was easy though, just the afternoon with 8 families and it was BEAUTIFUL! We got so lucky with the weather! I don’t think we could have a more perfect day!

I want to thank everyone that participated today! Most of you were returning clients (my treasures) and one new client (thank you so much for joining my family of friends). I HONESTLY do feel like my clients are my friends and I am so lucky for that! To prove to you it is true I will tell you a quote from my son the other day! My 4 year old said “Mommy, if we have a sleepover you can invite your clients!”. I said “why is that?”. He said “because you like them so much”.  Even my 4 year old knows how much I love my job and my clients.:-)

Here is one sneak peek for each family. There are lots more but for now these are the quick pick favorites I grabbed.

Maternity Portraits- Studio & Natural Light- Fairfield County, CT

There is NOTHING more special than the anticipation of your first born child! Becoming a parent is indeed the greatest gift and there is no way to know how it feels unless you experience it yourself.This couple is in for an amazing experience in just three short weeks! In the meantime, they enjoy each other and the joy of the anticipation. The relish the simplicity of the day to day routine, the quiet, the calm before the storm.

Children Portraits- Siblings having FUN for baby’s One Year Portraits!- Wilton, CT

When you have your second baby you have many dreams for him/her ,just like you had for the first BUT this time is a little different!

In addition to dreaming about their happiness you also imagine and hope that they will become a playmate for your older child. You picture them frolicking in the back yard while you watch them and smile. You dream about days like this, when the little one thinks that anything his/her big brother does is the funniest thing ever!! It is when I capture moments like this that I LOVE my job the most!! This is a vision of a dream, a snapshot of their childhood that they can now hold onto forever!

This took place in baby sister’s ONE year session. I always welcome parents to add the siblings for a minimal fee and after sessions like this I am glad that I do that! They were happy and playful and because of that our session took about 15 minutes and we got images like THIS!:-)

This is a “studio session”. When it is nice out I prefer to shoot out in my yard at my Wilton home studio. I just love all the trees and the lush greenery!
