Cristina Coco Photography bio picture

Welcome!

Thanks for finding my photography journal!  My name is Cristina Coco and I am a portrait photographer in the Westchester and Fairfield County area.

I love what I do.  I love what I do so much I left a very cool, high paced, world-traveling job in fashion to photograph kids. I know, I know, I must be nuts, right?  Well I hope this blog will give you an insight into why I left what some might call a dream job to run after a bunch of munchkins with my camera.

You'll notice that a lot of my images capture those kiddies looking straight at me, straight through the lens.  That is the shot I aim for at every session I do.  I love that moment when everything else fades away and that child really sees me.  Only a kid can naturally look at you like that - most adults can seem posed or even look away in embarrassment.  A child can look straight through you and capturing that moment for parents - that look that they know so well? Well, that is why I love to do this so much.

So enjoy my little neck of the web - I hope that it helps you get to know me a little better and makes you comfortable about choosing me to capture your memories.

This morning was BEAUTIFUL, so we...

Sigh.

That all I do when I look at the images from yesterday’s session.  Let me start by saying – I think that every child I photograph is nothing less than beautiful and perfect.  Seriously, I just see every one of them as stunning, gorgeous creatures waiting to be captured by my camera.  But every once...

A bit of rain, a trip to the ER, and we still fit in their session!

A little sneak peek for Jill – so happy that we were able to beat the rain today!  Plus side?  Cloudy evening means no one else on the beach on a Sunday!  These two little rascals – both under three – (pour Mom a drink, right?) were sweet as could be.  Little 15 month old...

Best Friends and more

You know how  it’s hard to find a couple that both you and your husband mesh with?  (or vice versa if a guy is reading this – oh you know what I mean!)  Either the guys are closer or the girls are closer and it’s hard to find a couple where EVERYONE is close? Well,...
