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.





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 Charlie, on the bottom photo, had a long day with a trip to the emergency room (he’s a-ok, thank goodness, but always stressful), so he was ready to get going as soon as we met!  Poor little guy, he just wanted to run around after having a rough day.  We let them just play around most of our session, and I think that worked out just fine.  See, Jill!  I told you I’d get them to look at me!!  :)
