Whether you need a new headshot, online dating profile picture, want to capture your children's portraits before they change, or simply want to celebrate your birthday in a special way, you're in the right place. I've been a photographer for more than a decade and love working with people to create beautiful portraits & memorable sessions! Your photo shoot can take place in my New Haven studio or "on location."

I regularly shoot in Connecticut, New York and Paris, so let me know where to meet you! If we're in the studio, your session will begin by meeting with my stylist for a complimentary makeover, then I will guide you through your own custom photo shoot so you never have to worry about how to move or pose. In the end you will have photographs to treasure for the rest of your life!

Whether you need a new headshot, want to capture images of your kids before this phase of life fades away, or want to finally have beautiful images of yourself, you are in the right place. I believe your experience taking the photos is as important as the photos themselves, so I spend time to make sure your experience is wonderful.
Services
I believe our memories are our most precious possessions- so what we capture, how we capture & display them, are critical parts of the process.
I am honored that my clients entrust me to help them capture what's most important to them.
My ultimate goal is to help people collect a lifetime of beautiful moments & also help them find ways to keep those moments alive for them everyday.
I am a mom of three, so I understand very well the complexities of juggling schedules & activities, but I also see my clients' joy everyday when they see their beautiful moments frozen in time.
It's a moment just for you- a moment you'll hold onto forever.
Bring your favorite clothes- whether that's jeans and a t-shirt or a black tie gown- and then we'll add a few pieces from the studio's wardrobe- a beautiful sequined gown or a special silk from China.
After that, you just have to sit back and relax while we take care of your hair & makeup.
Once you're relaxed and photo ready I'll guide you through your own magazine-style photo shoot!
Do you need a new professional headshot?
Perfect!
Life doesn't stand still when you're in high school and college, and then- in a flash- it's over.
Photo shoots are one of the best ways to capture your life right now so you can look back at it years from now.
I create your session around you, so we'll begin by talking through what would be the most meaningful to capture and go from there.
The cost of the session is $300, which includes an initial consultation, professional hair & makeup for the session, a style guide, and access to the studio's wardrobe- as well as the session itself.
Your headshot needs to do more than show someone what you look like- it needs to tell someone a little about who you are.
I've worked with professionals in a wide variety of fields for more than ten years and I know how make this painless.
I work with you to decide what you want your portrait to say, and then help you find the best wardrobe options.
Once you arrive at the studio for your session I have a stylist who will make sure you are photo ready, and then I will guide you through the photo shoot so you never need to worry about how to pose.
