Melissa photographed our newborn son and we are so happy with the photos. Melissa takes her time to get the perfect photos with her families and didn't mind that our little guy needed a few extra breaks in order to do so. Thanks so much for capturing such a special time!

CONNECTICUT NEWBORN, MATERNITY & BABY PHOTOGRAPHER
I book portrait sessions upon appointment in my private photography studio in Coventry Connecticut. I also use beautiful outdoor locations throughout the state. Be sure to capture all the milestones of your baby’s first year of life. Begin with her/his first hours of life. Learn about how our Fresh48 sessions are the perfect way to document this time.
These moments go by so quickly and can never be captured again. I simply love capturing all of life’s moments whether it be a posed family photograph, an unposed candid silly toddler or your everyday lifestyle moments… to me these are all important memories which should be captured and frozen in time. I specialize in newborns and maternity . I also offer baby and children milestone sessions, as well as seniors and families sessions based on availability.

There is nothing more beautiful than a brand new baby 🤍
This sweet newborn baby girl was just days old when she came in for her session, perfectly posed on soft green tones that complemented her delicate skin so beautifully. Those tiny fingers, sleepy stretches, and fresh newborn details change so quickly — it’s such an honour to capture them while they’re still brand new.
The newborn stage is fleeting. In just a few short weeks, they’ve already grown and changed. That’s why booking your session early is so important — ideally during pregnancy to secure your spot within those first 20 days.
If you’re expecting, now is the perfect time to reserve your session with @melissahartiganphotography . Let’s create timeless, heartfelt images you’ll treasure forever.
