Tru Blu Lifestyle Photography Blog  bio picture
  • G’day!

    Welcome to my blog and thanks for stopping by to check out my work! I am a lifestyle photographer whose passion is family photography. I'm Mom to two gorgeous Jack Russell pups, and wife to an wonderful Aussie husband. The three of them make me smile and keep me laughing everyday. They are a constant reminder of what is truly important in life and I cherish being able to capture life's little moments with them on camera.
    On this blog you will see images from my most recent shoots, as well as tid-bits on my family and the occasional restaurant or product review to satisfy the nutritionist in me. After all, life is all about a healthy balance of work, play and good food, right?
    I hope you can see my passion for what I do in each photo and I look forward to capturing life's little moments with your family. You can inquire about booking a session by visiting the contact section on this blog or on the Tru Blu website. Please feel free to stop by often and don't forget to leave some comment love -- I enjoy hearing from everyone!

Marzano Family Portraits

Last month I had the pleasure of photographing the extended Marzano family — 4 families  and Grandma and Grandpa. It was a great afternoon, beautiful setting and full of cute kids all dressed up for the 4th of July:-)Here are a few of my favorites of the children.

Thanks for having me everyone! Your gallery will be up soon!

Baby’s First Year :::::: Albums

I don’t know why I’ve never thought to take some shots of my finished albums! Below is Baby Hayes’s 1 year album, from maternity to his 1 year birthday. The album you see here is a 12 x 12 matted album by Finao. These albums are perfect for displaying images from a series of portrait sessions. Enjoy!

Twins :::: Alanna & Paige

I had the privilege of meeting up with these two little cuties and their Mom and Dad for an early- morning shoot today. Alanna and Paige were so fun to photograph and so interactive with each other. I really enjoy photographing twins and had such a fun time this morning. It’s amazing to observe twins together  and see just how different they are, they’re little personalities really start to shine at this age. Paige and Alanna will be turning one very soon! Happy birthday girls!

Miss Paige

How cute is she!?!

Miss Alanna, being silly:-)

A quiet moment with Mom

Fun with Mom & Dad:-)!

A few fun out-takes — this is why there aren’t many portrait shots of them together. . .they have too much fun!

A Winter Wedding ::: Gary and Rachel

It’s blog catch-up time for me! What better way to start than with a beautiful winter wedding? This past January I second shot Gary and Rachel’s wedding for my good friend, Eileen of e. broderick photography. We always have an awesome time shooting together and have shot several weddings together over the past two years. Second shooting is something I really enjoy, as it allows me to be creative and see things from a different prospective. Rachel and Gary are a fun, gorgeous couple whom we first met for their engagement session in the winter of 2009 at the Dzen Christmas Tree Farm in South Windsor, CT. We had a blast that afternoon and I was so excited when Eileen asked me to help with their wedding as well. They got married at the Fox Hill Inn in Brookfield. Everything about the day was absolutely stunning. . .beautiful bride, handsome groom, fun wedding party and an awesome old classic car. Very Cool.:-)Here are a few highlights from the day. . .enjoy!

Congratulations Gary and Rachel!
