I was completely honored when my friend from Avon chose me to be her in home newborn photographer. I just absolutely adore going into client’s home and capturing life as it is, in their natural environment. No need to travel to a studio. No need to sit hours in a hot studio waiting for your baby to sleep so the photographer can pose him/her. My newborn sessions take place in the comfort of your own home and they are fuss free. I’ll stay for less than one hour and capture boatloads of emotion filled, touching images of your new days home with baby.
Connecticut Family Photographer
Family of Three
If this family doesn’t make me excited for the 2019 fall family season, I do not know what will! Last week I posted on social media about wardrobe selection and how important it is to y our final images. This family right here listened to my advice and followed the tips in my “what to wear” guide that I send all clients. I just LOVE mom’s romper. So mush so that I ordered myself one too :)
Not only is the color super complimentary to her skin tone, it also is easy to dress the rest of your family. Off the shoulder is ALWAYS a yes for pictures! It’s a flattering fit, she looks super feminine and she felt great in it, which is EVERYTHING for the mom of the family!

in home maternity session - Farmington, CT
Did you know that I will come to YOU?
That’s right… and I prefer it. What I LOVE about in-home sessions is that they capture you in your natural environment. And that is what I love to capture most… the relaxed nature of who you are as a family. Nothing posed or staged but just you, in your home with your family.
This family of 4 from Farmington, Connecticut absolutely rocked it.

How fun this family was. They dressed the part and showed up ready to have some fun.
Clients hire me for the emotion they feel in my images. They are always surprised at how “fun” or even at times, how “chaotic” the session itself can feel. That is because everyone is having FUN.
No one is posing. I am not bribing the kids to look at the camera and smile this fake smile you all know so well. NOPE. I capture those in-between moments instead. The real smiles. The true laughter.
Sometime parent will say, “Are you sure you got anything good"?” To which I reply.. “so many good ones!”
I even had one little girl ask me once,”Do you do this all the time?”. She just thought I was the coolest thing ever (little does she know, hahaha)
For real though, can you see the love in these images?
Ready to book your family session? Believe it or not, I’m already filling my 2019 calendar.
