KIND WORDS FROM PAST MATERNITY CLIENTS

"My husband and I had such a wonderful experience with Ute for our maternity session. We are first-time parents and really wanted to capture this beautiful and magical time in our lives. We chose to do studio and milkbath sessions. Ute made us feel comfortable and right at home immediately after stepping into her studio. She has so many maternity outfits that I would highly recommend taking advantage of! I bought a few dresses from home and did not use a single one because of the beautiful options she has in-house. Ute is an absolute gem of an artist to work with, and I would recommend her to all expecting and new parents. Also, we cannot wait to return to her studio for our newborn session once little man arrives!" Rhianna C. Wilton, Connecticut

Ute thinks of every detail so that you have nothing to worry about the day of your shoot. We can’t recommend her enough!" Janelle R., Trumbull Connecticut

"We have gotten both of our kids bump to baby shoot done with Ute and must say there is no match to her creativity and experience. Her work speaks for itself and no wonder there are so many amazing families including us who would not think of going anywhere else but to her when it comes to capturing our most precious moments. Above all she is very patient, welcoming, accommodating and an absolute pleasure to work with! Thank you Ute for all the lovely clicks!" Bhavana C., Stamford Connecticut

Her attention to detail and creative approach left us so happy with the results that we knew we had to hire her again for our second son's newborn and maternity sessions. Ute's ability to capture precious moments with such warmth and professionalism is truly incredible. We highly recommend Ute for anyone looking to create beautiful, lasting memories through photography!" Marko M., Norwalk Connecticut

Ute was so pleasant and the made the experience a happy one. We love the pictures we picked out and can't wait for the newborn shoot. Anyone that is contemplating her services; do it!"
