Family photography · Connecticut
Real smiles. Real personalities. Zero stress.
Jake has been photographing families for many years. Choose your favorite Connecticut location and he’ll make the session a fun experience for everyone in the family.
The approach
Patience of a parent. Eye of a pro.
As a parent of three, Jake knows that capturing a child’s personality in a photo can sometimes be stressful and difficult. He uses his patience, flexibility, and experience as a parent and photographer to get great photos while making sure your session is fun.
Clients often mention how laid back he is — letting kids be kids to get natural shots, and taking the time to make sure you get every photo you want.

Jake is my go-to for all my real estate photos. Very professional and always extremely flexible with scheduling.
I love the way our pictures came out! I had a hard time choosing which ones to print! Jake was professional and has an amazing eye to capture the best memories!
Absolutely outstanding customer service. My son’s newborn photos were worth every cent. Jake truly puts his heart and soul into every photo taken. Working with a newborn can be difficult but he had patience like a saint.
Jake was very experienced and took wonderful pictures of our entire family of 6 plus the dog. He was extremely patient while getting all the little ones to smile and cooperate. Highly recommend!
Jake was truly a pleasure to work with! He was so laid back, organized and friendly. He made us feel comfortable. Jake edits pictures super fast and is truly accommodating. I’m so glad we went with Jake for our family photos!!!
Jake is very easy to work with, his photos come out beautiful and he delivers them within a reasonable amount of time. I cannot recommend him enough and have gotten multiple photos taken per year since my 1st shoot with him.
Jake is so easy going, which makes it that much easier! Small or large groups, he’s great, especially with the kids and we all know how hard it is to capture those smiles when they won’t sit still! Definitely recommend him and will be doing many future sessions!
Have worked with Jake on 2 family photo shoots so far and there will be many more to come! He is very laid back and allows the kids to do things naturally to get the best shot! He also takes time to make sure you get every photo that you want.
