Sterling Library at Yale University Engagement Session in New Haven, CT | Andrea & Chris

With Yale’s stunning, timeless architecture and spring blooms finally making an appearance, I knew Chris and Andrea’s engagement portraits were going to be beautiful. As luck would have it, there was a major student event going on that evening, so all of my favorite spots at Yale were jam-packed with people! To avoid too many students walking around in the background of Chris and Andrea’s photos, Arturo and I took them one block over from where we usually start off. It was here that we stumbled upon the stunning courtyard in front of Sterling Memorial Library!

Walnut Beach Engagement Session in Milford, CT | Vicki & Kevin

As a portrait photographer in Connecticut, I'm always thankful when Mother Nature cooperates and gives us beautiful, golden, glowy light for our clients' photo sessions here in New England! I felt especially thankful during Vicki and Kevin's engagement session at Walnut Beach in Milford last weekend. The evening sunlight was purely magical, which only further highlighted the love that these two share!

Best of 2017

This year was quite a year of growth for Shaina Lee Photography, one grander than I ever could have imagined! Arturo came on to assist with more engagement sessions and weddings, we moved into our first studio, I started offering boudoir photography, and discovered my love for working with fellow female entrepreneurs to create fun and exciting lifestyle headshots!

Walnut Beach Engagement Session in Milford, CT | Emelia & Jon

We had the most beautiful golden hour sunset at Emelia and Jon's Walnut Beach engagement session in Milford, Connecticut on Sunday!! The crisp October breeze gently blew against our faces as Arturo and I photographed the future Mr. & Mrs. Compared to the crazy humidity we'd had the weekend before, the four of us were so happy to finally be able to enjoy the autumn weather with sand between our toes at the beach!
