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.
Three under three? Yep, I know – I would be all over the place, pulling out my hair, house a mess… Not this lady! She’s got it all together and two sweet kiddos to boot. I had such a great time spending the morning with Sheila and her two little men – they were sweet...
I’ve been so busy with clients, editing, website launch, album design – I needed to take a little family time this week. Went to visit grandparents, and just basically hung out with little J. I’ve missed just hanging with him alone and it was so needed and so much fun! This morning was BEAUTIFUL, so...
What, no image today? Shocking, I know. I wanted to save all the oohs and aahs (at least I hope there are) for my brand new website! It’s been a long time coming, a ton of work, and I’m very proud to present it to you. So please, take a click over to www.cristinacocophoto.com, click...
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 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...
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,...
No, no, not the hat… my blog!! Everyone has a few things they aren’t good at. I have some random ones, math (horrible), scrapbooking (never finish an album!) and then as far as photography goes – taking a self portrait with my son. Exhibit A is above – you see my silly mug on here...
Well, I’ve been on Cape Cod for a week and it’s been wonderful. I actually haven’t done any (real) work for a week and it has been an actual vacation! I didn’t have much of a choice, actually, as we haven’t had internet here the whole time! No emails, no facebook, no blog!! Honestly, verizon...
How can I not be happy after getting to photograph this cute face on a beautiful afternoon? This is the second Fiona I shot this week – both beautiful girls and sweet as anything. Sometimes 9 month old can be tough – not this little one! She smiled, played, clapped and had a really fun...
This is beautiful Miss Fi – she is such a sweet girl and such a character. She LOVES getting her picture taken – my kind of girl! She is all about being girly and color – such fun and so different than my little man! Our session got cut short because of a thunderstorm –...
