Wilton Portraits, for those who value authenticity.
I'm a photographer with a passion for taking portraits with personality. I have spent over 20 years as a creative director and art director for advertising and Web design agencies and I know what makes a memorable image. Over the past several years I have begun to reignite and foster my love for photography — something I studied at the Hartford Art School.
Wilton Portraits is where I turn my passion into a valuable asset for your personal brand. I work with each client to understand what makes them unique, then we work together to construct an image that projects that to the world.
Your comfort is my first priority — everyone hates being in front of a camera. Whether it's a professional portrait, senior portrait or casual family photography, I blend in with the background leaving you to feel natural and bring out your inner you.
