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.





Practice, Practice, Practice

Just got back from an AMAZING weekend to DC with photographer Brianna Graham.  Met tons of great photographers and new friends.  I can’t express how much the trip inspired me – nothing like being around a bunch of crazy talented people to up your game a bit.

This little girls name was Claire, she was wonderful and sweet and did just about everything I asked as long as I let her take a picture of her mom with my camera after we were done.  She and I instantly clicked and I loved working with her.

Hope you’re weekend was as wonderful as mine!
