Each family, newborn, and child offers their own unique essence and I enjoy every second of capturing what makes them uniquely "them". You have your own tastes, your own passions. I want to capture this, so you can share with the world your uniqueness, personality, sense of style, and pride, through every single photograph.
Allow me introduce myself, my name is Claudette and I've called Long Island home my entire life. I have a personal connection with the community. It inspires me, as do the people. It's why I've made it my lifelong home and why I've focused the last decade on working with families to capture beautiful images.

Services
I have taken classes and workshops with some of the best photographers in the world. My work has even been featured on Shutterfly's Blog of Creative Newborn Ideas. While I love to photograph almost anything, my passion lies in family and portrait photography, with special emphasis on newborn photography.
I have a special setup within the studio for newborn photography, so while I service clients from Nassau County, Suffolk County, and Long Island for newborn photography we do perform the photography all in studio.
The appropriate lighting required to truly capture your baby just can't be taken out of the studio, and since I prize myself in giving you the very best photographic experience, I want to make sure you leave with nothing but the very best.If you haven't yet, look through my current newborn portfolio.

As a mother of three children, I understand that you may not always want to be in front of a camera during pregnancy. I know there were times where I didn't want to have a camera around, but I'm so glad I set up my own maternity photo shoots. It's such a beautiful moment in the life of a mother that may not come around again.
A cake smash photo session is truly magical. There's no limit to the kind of cake smash photo sessions we can set up, although I believe there's an innocence and excitement we'll be able to unlock when celebrating your child's first birthday. This might be the very first time they have seen a birthday cake before.
When was the last time you had a professionally taken family photo? If you can't remember, or if it's been a few years, now is a great time have one done. Whether it's for a holiday card, to celebrate Easter, or simply because you haven't taken one to show off how everyone in the family has changed, now is a good of a time as there's ever been.

This is my third time working with CLJ Photography. Claudette is the perfect mix of personal and professional and makes every session special and fun. We have enjoyed every experience with her and loved all the photos from my maternity and our newborn babies, including siblings and family.

I am so happy I decided to book our newborn photos with Claudette. She was very responsive and friendly from the beginning. When we arrived for our shoot she was so gentle with our baby and her creativity with the props was amazing. I could tell she loves what she does and is wonderful at it! We are very pleased with our photos and would highly recommend.

This was our first baby so we weren't sure what to expect. Claudette quickly set us at ease, and even more importantly, set our little lady at ease. We actually learned a thing or two watching her with our little one as she worked.
The pictures were of course beautiful; the experience was calm and easy. What more could you ask for?
