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.
That’s what Lindsey said at the end of our session on Monday and my heart just melted. Her big sister went inside and drew me a picture as a thank you card and it’s now stuck on my cork board proudly. Seriously girls? Too sweet!! These three were so much fun. We basically had a...
This session came about because Solveig really wanted an image of her son in his grandfather’s shirt. I loved the idea! Tradition is so important to family and when you get to capture it – well, let’s just say I feel special to have my work included. Her son, however, had a different idea. Little...
That all I do when I look at the images from yesterday’s session. Let me start by saying – I think that every child I photograph is nothing less than beautiful and perfect. Seriously, I just see every one of them as stunning, gorgeous creatures waiting to be captured by my camera. But every once...
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...
You know how it’s hard to find a couple that both you and your husband mesh with? (or vice versa if a guy is reading this – oh you know what I mean!) Either the guys are closer or the girls are closer and it’s hard to find a couple where EVERYONE is close? Well,...
How can I not be happy after getting to photograph this cute face on a beautiful afternoon? This is the second Fiona I shot this week – both beautiful girls and sweet as anything. Sometimes 9 month old can be tough – not this little one! She smiled, played, clapped and had a really fun...
