Luxury Portraits for Families & Children

Connecticut Children & Family Portraits

You know how quickly life moves. One day your children are climbing into your lap, and the next, they’re off writing their own chapters. The truth is, we rarely get the chance to pause and truly see one another—but portraits give us that moment.

At Planet Photo, we believe family portraits should be more than just pictures—they should be part of your family’s legacy.

Take the time to capture the moments!

Children's Studio Portraits

Children’s portraits are all about joy, imagination, and personality. Each session is designed to highlight your child’s unique spirit—whether that’s playful, adventurous, or sweetly shy. In our New Milford studio we create a relaxed, fun environment where kids can simply be themselves. The result? Genuine expressions, natural moments, and timeless portraits you’ll treasure as they grow and change through every stage of childhood.

The First Year

The first year of your child’s life is filled with wonder and change—precious milestones that deserve to be remembered. From the quiet beauty of newborn portraits to the joy of sitting sessions and the excitement of a first birthday celebration, timeless portraits tell the story of your baby’s first year. With a refined, editorial approach and a warm, nurturing touch, we capture each stage with artistry and care.
