My Testimonials

"Kerry was warm, outgoing and tremendously friendly from the start. Our son warmed up to her very quickly, and began to flirt and play with her as she was shooting. We walked around and got some great shots at the old homes and by the water. The entire time Kerry was in a great mood and really engaging with our son.We could not have been happier with the final product. Kerry truly captured the personality of our son; from his thoughtful expressions, to his goofiness and playfulness. None of the photos look rehearsed or posed for. They are all natural, which is fantastic when taking photos of children. The digital files are high resolution, and look amazing. The quality far surpasses what we’ve seen from more expensive photographers, and I don’t think we would have had as much fun if we went to them either. We really wanted something special for our first child’s first set of professional photos, and we were not disappointed with Kerry. We will definitely be looking to Kerry for all of our upcoming professional photos in the future!"~ Chris & Kirsten

"Kerry is truly the whole package! Not only is the quality of her work second to none, she is so easy to work with! Kerry is professional, yet laid back enough to win over a 22 month old, 4 yr old and 7 yr old at the same time. She created an atmosphere that encouraged each of us to simply be ourselves and have fun with the photo shoot. In the process, what she achieved was amazing photos that will be cherished by my family and me for a lifetime. Kerry has a unique and artistic way of capturing each emotion at the perfect angle and perspective that is easily seen in her photos. When I sit back and view my photos (which I still do daily!) I see a genuine memorialization of that terrific day. I only wish I knew of her 9 years ago on my wedding day! I have booked my holiday shoot and I am anxious to see what kerry has in store for us once again!"~Lauren, Wallingford CT

"We have a large blended family. We've had some photo sessions in the past and it has always been a painful experience and the photos were never great. However, after just a few minutes working with Kerry, I knew that this one was going to be different. Kerry was able to easily adapt to crying babies, uncooperative toddlers and adults who seemed to disappear whenever they were needed in a shot. She moved quickly and was friendly, funny, very easy to work with, and extremely talented. She took everything in stride and was able to take some truly wonderful photos. The entire process was quick and easy -- and we were back enjoying our holiday weekend in no time. There will surely be many more family photo sessions with Kerry in the future! The photos are beautiful and we will cherish them forever."~Marietta, Madison

"Not only do we love the photographs Kerry took, we also had a great time with her. Her love for children comes across in her photos and is self-evident the moment you introduce her to your little one. As we put together a baby announcement, we are having a hard time picking just a couple of images to use - there are so many that we adore. There's no question who will we use to document the passing years for our little family. " ~Christine, Monroe CT

"Kerry is a wonderful photographer! We are so pleased with the results of our photos – as is everyone else who sees them! We have two small children (2 under the age of 2!) and trying to have them both sit still during a studio shoot was nearly impossible! Deciding to go with Kerry was the best idea! She worked with our children and took natural photos…my children don’t look posed and their smiles aren’t artificial. We will definitely keep coming back to Kerry for our family photo sessions!"~Kelly, West Haven CT

"Kerry is a great photographer. She is very professional yet at the same time personal and great with children. She took photos of my family for both a Christmas card and for a family wedding and she did both seamlessly; the small group and the big group. I would absolutly recomend her for any photography needs!"~Dempsey, Guilford CT

Kerry is amazing! We could not be more pleased with her photography at our January wedding at the Copper Beach Inn. In addition to capturing all of the special moments, she managed, with camera in hand, to corral and cajole our grandchildren [3 twos, 2 fours and a 7 year old] with apparent ease. Look no further for a wonderful photographer, and lovely person.~Dana & Pat, Essex CT

"Kerry made everything easy from scheduling the shoot and choosing the location to the actual shoot. Kerry is very creative -- we didn't feel awkward or posed, and the whole family enjoyed the shoot. The photographs are beautiful and we've since received many compliments on our holiday card. We highly recommend Kerry and plan to use her again!"~Heidi, Durham CT

"When my kids see a camera, they turn into something other than the adorable tykes I know: suddenly, a Diva and a Dinosaur appear with weird expressions and the inability to sit still. At best, family pictures have never turned out as I'd like them to--at worst, we look like a group of hyenas. Enter Kerry Schutz! One afternoon with Kerry was all it took to create an album of family photographs that we will cherish for a lifetime. She caught sweet, innocent moments of candid beauty as well as more formal shots, in which-- surprisingly!-everyone looked good! She was fast moving but not rushed, and her staging was flexible and responsive. She used the landscape as well as our personalities to really capture a series of accurate moments in time. I highly recommend Kerry for any photography needs--she works wonders."~Liza, Guilford CT
