I'm Tamara, your Fairfield County, New Haven County and Coastal Connecticut Portrait Photographer
I capture the warmth of your child’s embrace, the laughter shared with loved ones, and the fleeting moments you never want to forget.
I provide a full-service, elevated photography experience—from thoughtful session planning and curated wardrobe styling to the design and delivery of heirloom artwork—so you can feel cared for every step of the way and walk away with meaningful art that lives beautifully in your home.
When I was 19, I was babysitting for a family, and one day I noticed that their walls were filled with beautifully framed portraits — images of laughter, play, and connection. That simple moment struck a deep chord: I realized I had never been photographed like that myself.
That experience stayed with me for years. It lit a quiet spark — one that would later grow into a passion for creating joy-filled, meaningful images for others. The kind I wish I had growing up.
A quiet spark became a calling—to tell stories worth remembering.
Before I ever picked up a camera, I was serving others in a hospital room.
As a nurse, I learned how to care with presence — how to listen deeply, hold space for vulnerability, and support people through some of their most personal moments. That experience didn’t just shape my career — it shaped who I am.
I bring that same heart into every photography session.
It’s more than images.
It’s preserving your story with intention.
It’s helping you see the beauty in yourself, your family, your journey.
Whether you’re stepping in front of the camera to celebrate a milestone, welcome a new life, or simply honor this season of becoming, I’m here to help you feel safe, seen, and beautifully remembered.

"Tamara made it feel so natural. She directed us just enough, but not so much that we lost our character as a family or felt pressured to be perfect."
Life doesn't slow down, but your memories can. Let's freeze the laughter, the love, and the little in between moments that matter the most.
every season of life deserves to be remembered.
