Capturing your most precious moments to cherish for a lifetime

Newborn, Children, Family & Senior Photographer located in Wallingford, Connecticut 





Let’s capture the magic

As a newborn & child photographer,I am continuously reminded of the adage "The days are long but the years are short." Through my lens, I strive to freeze these precious moments in time.  My goal is to provide you a warm,  friendly session, capturing the details of your life and have fun while doing so.  There is nothing more amazing and wonderful, then that new baby, that adorable toddler, the curious child or that independent teen. Photography is a way to pause that time and capture that moment forever for generations to come.  Let's tell YOUR story! 

I am a newborn & family photographer, located in Wallingford, serving all of Connecticut including North Haven, Meriden, Cheshire, New Haven, Hartford, Madison, Southington and Guilford.  I specialize in newborn, children, baby, maternity, family and senior photography.   Newborn photography though, is my love and my passion. Nothing is sweeter than that new little love, that sweet new baby smell, those little rolls, tiny toes and those darling little smiles. 

I'm Christy, the owner of Christy Mitchell Photography, and I'm so glad to have you here. 

Let me document your life-your beautiful moments and the realness you want to remember! 

Life is beautiful. Count your blessings, and let me capture the special moments!

let's chat

With every session, I embark on a journey to create not just photographs, but cherished memories that families will treasure for generations to come .  Patience is key when photographing newborns & children. With my newborn sessions, I provide a very calming atmosphere so we are able to capture those beautiful natural photos. Little ones, let’s face it, they sometimes don’t want to sit, they want to get up and explore, they want to run and play! That’s ok.   I capture both posed and candid moments during your session.
