St. Clement’s Castle right here in Connecticut is one of my favorite places to photograph weddings! The setting is spectacular and the inside and outside of the building is perfect for all kinds of formal and informal images. Besides the views and architecture, the staff there is so helpful and accommodating that it is a pleasure to work there. My brides and grooms have all had wonderful things to say about their experience at St. Clement’s as well. I highly suggest this wedding venue if you can book it.

Here is the last portrait before my Thanksgiving vacation. This is my dear friend, Marcia Bauman, an amazing composer who is just beginning to write for musical theatre. She comes back every year or so to update her professional portrait. I photographed her by the natural light in my studio. She is a striking individual and I love photographing her. I like how her brilliant hair is contrasted with her colorful scarf!
Marcia and I went to graduate school together at the Eastman School of Music. She is an extraordinary teacher and composer, as well as an expert in the field of music, health and conciousness. She is fascinated with the way music carries information about our inner worlds. This is really incredible stuff!
Have a safe, warm and happy Thanksgiving!

The benefit of holiday portraits are that you can capture images of your children at this time of year that you cannot get at any other time. It was not easy for the parents of these two beautiful girls to convince their youngest, a tomboy of sorts, to get dressed up again this year for their portrait session at Kim Bova Photography. But because it is that time of year for wearing fancier clothes for the holidays – it was easier to convince them. We had so much fun in our portrait session, we even played hide and go seek, that they really did not think about what they were wearing! 
Besides, the real benefit is that families can have gorgeous images of their children in a formal portrait. A nice change from the snapshots that are captured by parents all year round! As precious as those snaps are, there is nothing that can compare with a professional portrait to record this moment in a childs life.
