Southern Connecticut | A Family Portrait Collection

Last weekend I had the complete honor of meeting the sweetest family for a beautiful sunset session on the Connecticut shoreline.  Their daughter just turned 4 months old and this wonderful couple just celebrated their first Mother's and Father's Day!  As a gift from their family members, they were treated to having their first professional family photographs taken to celebrate these two special occasions, such a thoughtful gift!  I was SO thrilled to be part of this experience with them!  

I loved everything about our session.  Not only did we have the most perfect weather and picturesque spring sunset, but it was their first trip to the beach as a family!  Throughout our session, this husband and wife team cared for and stared in complete amazement at their beautiful daughter.  No matter what she needed, they read each other's minds and played off one another in such a wonderful choreographed way.  It was like watching two parents who have done it all before, they were naturals.  Seeing how they looked at their precious little girl was heart melting, she is their everything.  There was so much love and emotion that flowed through the warm sea breeze this night. 

The connection between these parents, Joelle and Scott, was so amazing to watch.  They made each other laugh the entire session; mostly Scott cracking jokes that made Joelle bust out laughing so hard she had tears in her eyes.  Their chemistry is apparent and it is clear they are completely head over heels in love with each other and are beyond in love with their daughter, their pride and joy.  They bring so much happiness and kindness into each other's lives and are such a genuine, loving, easy-going, fun, down to earth family!      

I always feel extremely blessed to do what I do and meet the people I am able to meet after all my sessions and this session was no exception!  I am so fortunate to have met this amazing family.  Being able to preserve these moments for them is an absolute honor.  They instantly entered my heart, forever.  

Here are some of my favorites from their session.
