KIND WORDS FROM PAST MATERNITY CLIENTS

"I am so grateful to have found Ute for my maternity photos! I booked my session just one week before the shoot, and she made the entire planning process feel so easy and stress-free. Her communication, attention to detail, and genuine care stood out immediately. I've never experienced customer service like that from any other photographer , truly professional from start to finish. On the day of the session, I chose a gorgeous location on a beach in Connecticut that fit the vision perfectly. She made my whole family feel completely comfortable, including my two young kids. She kept everyone engaged, relaxed, and smiling, and the photos reflect that in the most natural, beautiful way. The final images came out absolutely stunning. She captured such special moments with heart and artistry. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, from poses and lighting to how smoothly she guided us through everything. Ute is not only incredibly talented but also kind, warm, and so dedicated to her clients. I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience and can’t wait to book her again! If you’re looking for a professional photographer in Connecticut who delivers both breathtaking images and a seamless, personal experience, Ute is the one!" Rose C. New Fairfield, Connecticut
