CT Newborn Photographer ~ Corey {Ellington, CT}

The little expressions they give us at 6 weeks make such an impression on our hearts. Corey is bringing his family such joy…just as he brought me the day I…

Valentine’s Day Sneak Peak

What a wonderful Tuesday morning I had photographing these two beautiful siblings…little Corey and Big Sis Maddison. Corey is six weeks old and this little guy did not want to sleep the tiniest bit so mommy and I could create the images we had in our minds. That’s just the way it goes sometimes with…

Storm “Nemo” hits the Northeast!

Connecticut and the entire northeast was slammed with a mammoth blizzard Friday into Saturday and paralyzed our region with high winds and heaps of snow. I mean snow up to 40 inches or more! This was a historic storm that caused over 300,000 people to lose their electricity…very thankful we did not. The “big dig”…

What beautiful photographs. My favorite is the sun setting on the snow, fourth from the bottom.

Is that a real snowflake closeup in the first photo?ReplyCancel

  Yes Wendy…those are real snowflakes. Something I am trying to perfect this winter with my macro lens. I’m discovering it’s a whole new world when you look through that lens.ReplyCancel

I can’t even imagine (being a Florida Girl) seeing, let alone being in, that much snow. It really is beautiful and you captured every moment perfectly. Your poor hubby plowing, and Mike having all that fun and then that pretty lady in the yellow suit 🙂 …. Well you KNOW which one is my very favorite of all these images…..the last one. I can totally see that on a Christmas Card. Wonderful work my friend….and thank you for sharing. HugsReplyCancel

Inspire. Ignite. Shine.

I spent this past weekend with a wonderful group of ladies sharing ideas and experiences. We discovered new ways to improve not only our professional lives but our personal lives as well.
