As an alumna of Quinnipiac University, having the opportunity to go back and photograph graduates there is always my favorite. Visiting all the best spots – the library (aka Arnie), the floral-filled walkway by CCE, the School of Business tunnel, the sign for an iconic champagne spray. Angela showed up ready to conquer the session on a perfectly sunny day in between windy and rainy days.
There’s something so special about being back on campus — especially in the spring. Everything was in bloom, the air was warm (finally!), and the light couldn’t have been better. Angela’s grad session was full of joyful energy and a calm confidence that truly made it shine. This session felt like such a celebration of her journey and everything that comes next.
Angela is graduating with a degree in Marketing and looked absolutely radiant in her cap and gown. From the moment we started shooting, she was relaxed, joyful, and fully present, which always makes for the most beautiful portraits.
Spring at Quinnipiac is something every Bobcat remembers. Between the flowering trees, the iconic brick buildings, and that soft golden hour light, it’s hard to beat. We started at the path near CCE where the blossoms were in full bloom and made our way to Arnie (the library).
One of my favorite moments from Angela’s session was watching her beam with excitement as she sprayed champagne in front of the library on Quinnipiac’s quad. This is one of the iconic spots for senior portraits at Quinnipiac University and I am so glad we captured the moment with excitement!

This was my first time photographing a family session at Sherwood Island State Park in Westport, Connecticut, and it definitely won’t be my last!

When Abby reached out for her grad photos at Quinnipiac Law School, I was SO excited. I don’t often get the chance to do grad school graduation photos, so this was such a special treat. Abby showed up in a stunning long white dress (with a pink suit on deck) and we got right into […]

Miranda and Mitch’s Aldworth Manor wedding was nothing short of perfect. For an April wedding in New England, they truly couldn’t have asked for better weather.

As a Wallingford family photographer, I’m always […]
