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.

Ahhh, Valentine’s Day. I was never a big fan of Valentine’s Day. My husband is in the restaurant business, so we usually celebrate before or after (even though he is SO sweet about flowers and cards!). Until my son. Oooooh, how I love it now! The weekend was spent filling out cards for his classmates...
Well, I’m just in LOVE. Must be Valentine’s day being so close. For those of you who haven’t taken 6 month pictures – TRUST ME. It’s the best time. I love six month olds. They are so darn happy and they just sit there in all their cuteness. I just was gaga over this little...
