When people walk into my studio, they often have an idea of what to expect- sitting in front of my camera, looking into the lens, and smiling. It is my sincere pleasure to show them that there is incredible beauty in the authenticity of an expression, of a moment, and it doesn’t necessarily mean smiling. […]

When a woman books a Signature Session, I want her to know I’m right there with her throughout the process. When she comes back to the studio to see her photographs, I want the first time she sees them to be a beautiful experience, as well. I created this reveal video for a client recently […]

The various elements of a professional headshot session are very important- everything from your clothes to hair & makeup will contribute to someone’s first impression of you when they see it online. For this New Haven Headshot session we decided an outdoor backdrop would provide an interesting context for her engaging, yet professional look, and […]

When a woman inquires about a portrait session, I always encourage them to consider a Signature Session. Each Signature Session is different as each one is designed for a specific woman- who she is and how she would like to be photographed at this moment. For this session, Barbara wanted to be captured in a […]

The best part of family photography, for me, is being able to stop time for my clients- being able to give them a moment to hold onto that will never change. These moments are most pronounced when I photograph babies and young kids because they change so quickly.  This sweet little, for example, now scoots […]

As most people who know me will readily tell you, I love good food and wine. Getting to know the local restaurants is not only something to do for a night out, but a personal passion! I met Leslie, the driving force behind the site A Winery Review several years ago and was thrilled to […]

I am beyond excited to launch today a new style of photo session! The studio’s new Signature Sessions are an exploration of who you are and are an incredible experience. They are called Signature Sessions because each session is as custom as your signature- and is all about you. Each Signature Session begins with professional […]

This lovely young woman stepped into my Paris studio with a beautiful smile and a contagious laugh. What a joy it was to spend the afternoon with her! There are so many ways to add a Parisian feel to your photoshoot-–even if you can’t be in Paris! This top hat was from a Paris market, […]

I have always loved to travel, so when I was got married (many years ago), I hired a fabulous, eccentric designer named Anatole Kysk from Paris to make my wedding dress. Note that Anatole was not a wedding dress designer, but instead a costume designer who created beautiful costumes for Carnaval in Venice. His style was historic but eccentric […]

Whether we are working together on a professional portrait or a series of photographs of your family, your wedding or a holiday card, I am much more interested in creating an experience that is full of laughter and creativity than one in which all you remember is the way your hair looked or the fold of […]

  The Palais Royale is a beautiful, enclosed garden just north of the Louvre. It is the perfect place to escape for a moment and catch your breath. I am busily editing the photographs I’ve been collecting these past months and adding them to the fine art collection online- what a joy it is to […]

As the song goes, “I love Paris in the Springtime. I love Paris in the fall.” And, yes, I do. This amazing city is equally magical as the weather begins turning a bit cooler and the evenings become a bit longer. The outdoor cafes don’t bring their tables in once the weather hits 50 degrees- […]
