Sure, those early days are filled with a range of emotions that come with being responsible for such a tiny, precious baby girl. But it’s also filled with a love you […]

5 Reasons Why You Should Take Maternity Photos

“You’re going to miss your bump.” I remember being pregnant and being told that so many times. I couldn’t imagine it then. But now, two children and ten years later, I understand it to my core. You realize they didn’t just mean “the bump,” but all that it represents. Who I was becoming in that season, […]

My Story

Hi, I’m Kristin.

I’m a hardworking mama, just like you, except my babies are getting older now. I’ve got a perspective that I only I wish I had when they were little. I’ve got regrets. I didn’t know just how fast it would all go. And now my mission is to save other moms from those same regrets. 

I am your family’s photographer, your new mom friend, your personal stylist, your pampering coordinator, and your memory keeper.  

Over the last 6 years, I’ve served tons of mamas, rocked 100s of babies, and wrangled 1000s of toddlers creating magic for families spread across Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Vermont. And I'd be honored to do the same for you.

Let’s start documenting your baby’s story!

We take a limited number of families each year to make sure each Mama gets all the love attention she deserves. Contact us today to check availability for your baby's First Year Collective or portrait session.
