Experience
I have been photographing newborn babies since 2010, obtaining my Master Newborn Photographer credential in 2021 by the NAPCP. With this expertise, I can deliver superior quality and attention to detail.

Welcome!
My name is Kristin, and I am so happy that you are here! I love to watch my families plan their pregnancy, meet their newborn babies, watch their children grow up, photograph their birthdays, and even meet Santa Claus for a Christmas photoshoot! When we work together, you become a part of my extended family - we celebrate your milestones together!
After discovering my love and talent for photography in college at the University of Connecticut, my husband & I (of almost 15 years!) married, had our daughter (my baby & family photography clients know her well!), and I've been building this photography business for the last 13 years! Outside of work, you’ll find me traveling, hiking, camping, and finding the special gem local business!
Our Newington, CT Photography Studio
Our customized and comfortable photography studio caters to newborn photography, babies, our very popular birthday cake smash, and studio maternity photoshoots. We carry a wide variety of specialized props, outfits, blankets, and other materials to design each photoshoot for our clients. Although you'll find me in the studio most often, we do also travel on outdoors location when the season, session, or subject would be better suited outside.
We are zoned for studio use through the Town of Newington and Liability Insured.

Testimonials
“She is amazing with newborns and I was completely comfortable handing my son off to her during the shoot. The final images she captured are amazing, truly works of art. The quality of the product does not even compare to prints you are able to have done on your own. We are extremely happy and satisfied with this investment that we made.”

“I wouldn't have wanted any other experience, as Kristin captured everything that I was hoping to. Her kind, patient and accommodating nature makes you feel comfortable and confident. She has a very good eye for detail and truly puts herself in your shoes, to ensure the most successful session. Her pre-shoot and post-shoot communication is great, which was very important to me as well. As soon as I have another need, she will be my top pick! Highly recommended.”
-Rachel
“We recently had our first child and brought her to Kristin for her newborn photos and everything from beginning to end was a stellar experience. Kristin went out of her way to accommodate us and make sure she was available for the photo shoot for our daughter. She truly is a natural with babies and I was comforted to know my baby was safe and in the best hands the whole time we were there. As if all this isn’t enough the pictures came out fantastic and took my breath away.”
-Katie & Dan
“My husband found Kristin for a surprise family photo shoot for my birthday over the summer, and I'm so happy he picked her to document our family memories. The pictures we got from her are incredible, and we've gotten so many compliments about how beautiful and natural they look. Working with Kristin has been so easy, and you feel like she's known your family for years even after just meeting.”
