Shoreline CT Newborn Photographer

Shoreline CT Newborn Photographer

Families along the Connecticut shoreline have been making the short drive to my Madison studio for over 13 years. From Guilford and Branford to Clinton, Old Saybrook, Killingworth and beyond — parents who want a calm, fully guided newborn experience keep finding their way here, and I’m glad they do.

Madison sits right in the middle of the shoreline, which makes it a natural home base for families across the region. My studio is a quick, easy drive from most shoreline towns — close enough to be convenient, and worth the trip for parents who want something more than a rushed session in a generic space.

A Studio Built for New Parents

Walking into a newborn session with a brand new baby can feel like a lot. My goal is to make it the opposite of stressful. The studio is warm, quiet, and fully stocked — wraps, props, outfits, headbands, all of it is here. You don’t need to bring anything except your baby.

I’m NAPCP certified as a Master Newborn Photographer, which means safety and posing technique are things I’ve spent years focusing on. Every session is baby-led and unhurried. If your baby needs to eat, we stop. If they need to be settled, we settle them. There’s no clock pressure and no rushing through poses.

Parents often tell me afterward that they got to actually relax and enjoy it — which, with a newborn at home, is probably a rare thing.

Session Options

Every family is unique and I offer several session options to match your style and needs.

Wrapped Mini Newborn Session

Your baby stays cozy and swaddled throughout. Short, sweet, and budget friendly.

Signature Newborn Session

The full experience, including parent and sibling portraits. This is our most popular option.

Lifestyle Newborn Session

Less props, more natural connection. Still in the studio, still fully guided — just a softer, more documentary feel.

Heirloom Keepsake Newborn Package

It’s everything you get with a Signature or Lifestyle package plus all images, an album and a keepsake box with all your images printed in color.

When to Book

Most families book during their second trimester so there’s a date lined up before baby arrives. Sessions typically happen when babies are between 5 and 21 days old, though I photograph babies outside that window too and adjust posing to keep them comfortable.

If your baby is already here and you haven’t booked yet, reach out anyway. I keep a small number of openings each month for last-minute sessions.

A Few Questions Shoreline Families Often Ask

Do we need to bring anything? Nothing at all. I’ll send you a simple style guide before your session so you know what to wear, but everything else is here.

Can siblings and parents be included? Absolutely. Some sessions include family portraits automatically and others have the option to add them — I’ll go over all of that when you inquire.

What if my baby is fussy? Completely normal and nothing to worry about. We work at your baby’s pace. Feeding breaks, settling time, whatever is needed — there’s no rush.

How far is the studio from shoreline towns? Madison is right in the middle of the shoreline. Most towns are a short, easy drive — Guilford about 10 minutes, Clinton and Branford under 20.

I'm Kat, the principal photographer behind Catherine King Photography. I am so glad you found me!

 

I specialize in Maternity, Newborn and Family photography which basically means that I have spent countless hours (over 13 years!) figuring out what makes kids smile and how to safely pose adorable newborns. I love working with families to help everyone feel beautiful while capturing authentic connections. My goal for each sessions is to provide you with a stress-free amazing experience and deliver gorgeous images for you to treasure.

 

I run a full service studio. Newborn and milestone sessions in studio include everything you need from the latest props to adorable accessories like headbands, bonnets, and wraps. I also scout locations in the area to recommend for your outdoor family sessions that will work well with lighting, seasons, etc. During the session I will guide you through posing and capture both posed and the in-between moments.

 

The pricing guide will allow you to look over the various packages available that will fit your need and budget. All packages include digital images that you can print for yourself. You will also find a large selection of professional grade print products and custom design art and albums.

 

If you have any questions about the process, session, or final products, let me know. I am here to help!

 

XO,

Kat
