How lovely to have the soprano Greer Lyle in the studio recently for new headshots. And congratulations to Greer on being a semifinalist with the Met Opera's National Council Auditions!! If only we could have her voice singing to us as we work everyday! :)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #opera #metopera #soprano #yale #headshot #headshotportrait #newhaven #connecticut #portrait #artist #photography #photostudio #portraitartist #karissavantassel #professionalwomen #professionalphotos #linkedin #socialmedia #firstimpression

You know that dress you bought that's hanging in your closet? The one you fell in love with but maybe only wore once (or not at all!)? THIS is the time to break it out- bring it to your photoshoot and you will not only get to wear it, but get a makeover and be photographed wearing it! (Pictured here: a never-worn prom dress) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #photography #portrait #portraiture #existinphotos #beauty #beautifull #women #connecticut #ct #newhaven #gscia #highschool #senior #seniorphotos #styled #prom #promdress #prompix

Deciding what to get her for Mother's Day? A photo shoot is the perfect gift- it includes a complimentary makeover, along with a custom photo shoot and access to the studio's wardrobe of beautiful gowns and fabrics. For something extra special, have her bring her kids so it becomes a memory with them she can hold onto always! 
La vie en rose-- if you saw my last post, living in Paris truly is life through rose-colored glasses and I'm looking for a little Parisian inspiration this morning for an upcoming photoshoot! What inspires you?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #paris #lavieenrose #customphotoshoots #newhaven #ct #connecticut #ctshoreline #cityliving #everydaymoments #everydaybeauty #enjoythejourney #liveforthemoment #newhavenphotographer #connecticutphotographer #ctphotographer #gooutside 
Someone recently told me you can only create what you can see in your mind. I couldn't believe how simple & yet unbelievably obvious that is. My photography is romantic and warm, filled with color and natural beauty- because that is how I see the world. Some may call it rose-colored glasses. So be it. "It's not what you look at that matters. It's what you see." - Henry David Thoreau 
The studio’s wardrobe is available for portrait sessions & includes swoon-worthy pieces like this! A beautiful robe of tulle weighing 40 pounds?! Yes, please! 
"She is quick and curious and playful and strong."
