Hello, I'm JACKY

Photographer

I'm a new mom and recently married Fairfield County based photographer. I met my husband playing recreational dodgeball (you can dodge a wrench, but you can't dodge love), and in the spring of 2022 we had our dream wedding in Newport, Rhode Island. Shortly after, I started my photography business for a creative outlet alongside my day job as an elementary school teacher.


When I'm not chasing around my one year old or snapping photos, you can find me walking our mini goldendoodle, working out at Orangetheory, or painting and decorating our new home in Ridgefield. I'm always on the hunt for the best gluten free restaurants and will never say no to vanilla ice cream with sprinkles.

As a photographer, my focus is on creating a relaxed and enjoyable experience for my clients. I believe that the best moments are captured when people feel at ease, so I make it a priority to connect with you on a personal level. I lean on my background as an elementary school teacher when working with your kiddos and try to keep things light, natural, and fun, ensuring that you’re comfortable every step of the way. My goal isn’t just to take great photos, but to help you relive those authentic moments in the most meaningful way.

Two young children with blonde hair lay on green grass while laughing and having fun together.

"We had such an amazing experience with Jacky! She took photos of us with our two young kids and she captured them so beautifully. Our kids instantly loved her and felt so comfortable with her, which makes such a huge difference. She gave us so many photos and we love them so much that it’s making it hard to figure out which ones to frame, which is a great problem to have! We absolutely recommend Jacky and will definitely be using her again when we’re ready for our next round of pictures! THANK YOU!"

"We are absolutely in love with the photos Jacky took on our wedding day! She captured every moment so beautifully and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out.


Jacky was incredibly organized and detail oriented from start to finish. She was so patient with me throughout the process and managed to stay behind the scenes on the big day, which allowed everything to feel natural and relaxed."

Jacky is such a pleasure to work with! She is reliable, communicative, and fun to spend your session with!! Jacky took holiday card photos for us last year, and we were thrilled with how they turned out. Everyone said they looked like they belong in a magazine. Jacky’s turnaround was quick, and we have nothing but wonderful things to say about her and her work. I would recommend her photography for any occasion including family photos, maternity, newborn, engagement, and pet photos! Our golden retriever Ralph adores Jacky as well, so just another bonus. We will be using Jacky again this year too, and can’t wait to make it an annual tradition!
