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.
During college I lived with 5 guys and another girl. I can’t really remember how it happened, but somehow I ended up living with a good part of my school’s football team. I know, my dad wasn’t thrilled… Funny enough, he should have been happy. It was like I had 5 brothers looking out for...
This baby was SO adorable. And so big! She is only 7 days old but you would think she was 3 weeks old – I loved her round, perfect cheeks and big eyes. She made mom and I work – she was so hungry we had to stop and feed her a bunch, but it...
Hello Kiara! It was so nice meeting you today. What a beautiful day it was – we actually got to go outside a little bit! Finally! Although you wouldn’t guess from these pictures, somebody didn’t want to sleep today. We caught a few shut eyes here and there – some of my favorites! Thanks for...
Ok, it’s official. This weather stinks. I’m so sick of gloomy days, rain filling my basement (on my birthday no less…), I’m DONE. All my sessions have had to be moved around, and even the rain dates are needing rain dates these days. It’s going to be a hectic week and the weather today isn’t...
So I get a call from someone who just happened to stumble upon my blog in an internet search for newborn photographers… When she saw my picture in the about me section, she said, “I know her!!” and called me right away. Jen and I go way back. I haven’t seen her in about 15...
I’m in love my with my new location. The light there is amazing, there are little spots I discover every time I’m there. Just heaven, my little secret spot… There is a little bit of everything, grass, beach, water on both sides of you… LOVE IT. I’m also in love with these three kids! They...
I was so ready for spring. I haven’t shot outside in months besides my personal work, so I’ve been DYING to get out there. Luckily Anna wanted an early spring session as she wanted to capture her youngest at six months. (By the way, his name is Oliver and he’s adorable. Apparently I think he...
