Introduction

I call myself an "all purpose" photographer serving Connecticut. Photography is a HUGE passion of mine! There are two things I love about photography: The first is the ability to capture a moment in time; it’s exhilarating the moment the shutter clicks. The second thing I love is interacting with you, my client. I love being able to get to know my clients and their families. I have the opportunity to quietly observe and capture moments of their love, personalities, movements, gestures and depth. It’s the greatest honor I could ever have.
