Editorial maternity, motherhood & portrait photography in New England

New England photographer based in Connecticut. Editorial maternity portraits in Hartford, Boston, and select destinations. Studio portrait sessions for women who want something real, intentional, and worth framing.

What I Specialize In

I specialize in studio portraits with editorial lighting — the kind of images that feel like they belong in a magazine but are entirely, unmistakably you. 

• Maternity portraits 

• Mom + baby sessions 

• Women’s portraits 

• Headshots & personal branding 


 Based in Connecticut, shooting at a Hartford studio and on location seasonally.

Hello, I’m Daria

I’m a portrait photographer and a mom of two, based in Connecticut. 

 I started photographing maternity and motherhood because I know how rare it is for a mom to actually be in the frame with her kids — and when she is, it’s usually a quick phone photo that doesn’t feel like her. I wanted portraits like that for myself, and now I create them for other women. 

My sessions are designed so you don’t have to think about anything. I handle the details. You just bring yourself.


Ready to book your session?

Tell me what you have in mind. I’d love to hear from you.
