Baby shower photography and videography in Connecticut

A baby shower brings together the people who will love this child before they are even born. We capture the joy, the nerves and the little traditions that make your celebration yours.

About baby showers coverage

Baby showers can be sweet and quiet or a big backyard party, and some include both parents and a mix of generations. Many have a theme, a special cake and a few games that everyone remembers.

We pay attention to the expectant parent's comfort and keep the camera work gentle. Our goal is to leave you with pictures and film that you can show your child one day when they ask what the day was like.

Moments we cover at baby showers

  • The decorated space

    Balloons, banners, books and the cake or dessert table, before guests arrive.

  • A belly portrait

    A few quiet pictures of the parents-to-be, on their own or with siblings.

  • Games and guessing

    Guessing the due date, diaper games and other activities that get the whole room laughing.

  • Gifts and handmade keepsakes

    Opening gifts, reading messages in books and seeing what relatives have made by hand.

  • Reveal moment

    If you are doing a gender reveal, the cake cutting, balloon pop or confetti, filmed and photographed together.

Planning tips

  • Plan the reveal for good light and sound

    If there is a reveal, tell us when and where so we can set up for both photo and video.

  • Set aside a few minutes for family portraits

    A short, relaxed session with the parents-to-be, siblings and grandparents adds a lot to the final collection.

  • Keep a list of handmade or sentimental items

    Quilts, heirlooms and handwritten notes are easy to miss unless we know to look for them.

Photography and videography for baby showers

    We photograph baby showers with a soft, natural look that suits the occasion. The pictures focus on the expectant parents and the family surrounding them.

  • Baby showers videography

    Video lets you keep the voices, the laughter and the well-wishes of the people who gathered for your baby. It is a gift to rewatch when your child is older.

Please ask us about this separately. We are happy to talk through what is possible for your family.

Do you cover showers that are held at home?

Yes. Home showers are among our most common, and we are comfortable working in living rooms, kitchens and backyards.
