I recently had the honor of photographing one of my favorite Connecticut families on the beach in Milford to celebrate their son Carter turning a whole year old. I had the beautiful opportunity to photograph Jocelyn’s maternity portraits, and their in-home newborn session when Carter was just a few weeks old last summer- it is always such a gift to photograph families each year, a gift I never want to take for granted.

In years past I worked with Jocelyn as a professional hair & makeup artist in Southern Connecticut. She would arrive and pamper my clients before their own sessions, and we always chatted about what motherhood would be like for Jocelyn. “I know it’s crazy, ” she would always say. “But I want a little blonde baby someday.”

It’s such an honor of this job to watch women I know become such incredible mothers. I learn so much from them, even from afar. I can hardly believe Carter is already one, and what a treasure he is. Here are a few of my favorite black & white portraits from our session near the beach, photographed on a combination of digital and medium format film.
