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.

Introducing Dylan… ~Westchester Newborn Photographer, Cristina Coco Photography~

Ahhh, newborns.  They are so perfect and such a puzzle at the same time.  I remember it so well – a day home from the hospital, trying to figure out what would make my little guy happy.  The little tricks to soothe him I thought were working, only to be fooled the next day when...

I see London, I see France… back from vacation!

Just go back from a great little get away to London and Paris.  What beautiful cities!  So much history, so much beauty.  Every corner there was something to see.  I lugged my camera around every where I went (and my back is hating me right now!) Just wanted to share some images from my trip. ...
