First Year Collective

One Year with Chloe: Newborn, 7 months, and First Birthday!

One year with Chloe! My goodness, what a sweet year it was. When I look back on and think about Chloe’s First Year Collective, I can’t help but to smile. Every single session was full of SO much joy and a love that was palpable.

I remember being at Chloe’s newborn session and just wanting to soak it in as much as Mom and Dad were. They adore their little girl, and I think it’s safe to say that Dad is absolutely smitten with both of them!

Chloe’s Newborn Session

A couple weeks after Chloe’s newborn session, we met for their first reveal and design appointment. Mama started tearing up right away at the realization of just how much her baby girl had grown in just two weeks. It’s a bittersweet reality, and one that you truly just cannot grasp until you are living it for the first time.

AND-  it’s why we are SO passionate about not only documenting your baby’s first year, but doing something with the photos. Whether you prefer to frame your memories or put them in an heirloom album, we walk you through the entire process.

If you want to make sure that you have these moments documented for your family, be sure to contact us. We take a limited number for Collective families each year.

Chloe’s Sitter Session

Chloe at 7 months old! This milestone session is known as our “sitter” session and so much fun! Mom and Dad opted to have it just be Chloe for this session. She made me work for some smiles and showed off her beautiful blue eyes!

Chloe’s First Birthday

And just like that, Chloe is ONE! We celebrated her first birthday with another session in our studio in Westport. Chloe was all smiles, on the move, and loved playing airplane with Mom and Dad! She gave the sweetest kiss to her Mama, and it was the sweetest ending to the best year. I could not have been more grateful to document it all for these three.

But we didn’t stop there! We made sure to do something with their memories and print some of their favorites from Chloe’s first year for her nursery.

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.
