Alicia Hoffman, Maternity, Newborn & Family photographer in Connecticut.
I am a portrait photographer specializing in all stages of motherhood. I create honest Images of deep connection when life is unhurried and you feel at peace.
I am a wife to my soulmate, mom of 3, dog mom and straight up girls' girl from Connecticut. I love sunsets and stormy skies, open fields, bare bellies and tiny hands in mine. As a family we are loud and love tasty food. We thrive on nature adventures, kitchen dance parties and nightly snuggle fests to fully soak in the moments of the day.
Motherhood is the core of my current being. It has changed me. I have slowed down, become compassionate and nostalgic for things some may find mundane. Losing my mother at the young age of 19 has such a strong presence in my motherhood journey. It reminds me how important I am in my children's story. I need to be present in every facet in every way.
And I want the same for my clients.
I will elevate your mundane intricacies of everyday motherhood. You will see the beauty while feeling empowered, walking away with a family heirloom.
It is my mission to encourage mothers to always be a part of your children's story. Be in the photo. You are the main character. You are the narrator.
Allow me to honor this intimate time in a raw yet intentionally beautiful way. Walk away with emotive art of you and your babies both in the frame.
Art isn’t about escaping the chaos of real life, it’s about embracing it and highlighting its beauty.
my world; beautifully organized chaos.
Run by a Type A, passionate, and brutally honest; woman.
“Years gone, when time has passed and things have changed, you will be able to step back and remember who you were back then.”
LIFE IS AN EVOLUTION
Each decision a stepping stone for how I create art for you.
Business
My 15 years experience in a creative agency & client services role, is quickly apparent when planning every detail for your session. The perfectionist in me wants to ensure all your needs are met and communication is clearly defined, while still creating a personalized raw experience and art.
I will provide you with everything you need, allowing you to live in the moment.
I
Body
Confidence is truly the most alluring thing a woman can embody. I was a dancer, transitioned fitness competitor who had many moments in front of the camera. This vulnerability taught me how to position my body to emit emotion, where to look to create connection and most importantly how to love myself at each stage of life. Insecurities are normal. We each have a story to tell in our own unique way.
I will empower you and guide you to feel the same.
Service II
Because
Being a mother is all consuming; physically, mentally and emotionally. More often than not we put ourselves last. Our journey as a mother is just as important as our babies. Our children deserve a keepsake that expresses your unique bond.
Pregnancy is an enigma and a different experience for everyone. I myself had three very different pregnancy journeys (natural, IUI, IVF) and will forever cherish my art.
I will encourage you to experience the same.
KiND WORDS

These are amazing and the sample edits are to die for. Literally in tears looking at these. You did such an amazing job capturing so many moments, each one brings a different emotion. I am so glad I found you for capturing what will likely be my last pregnancy and newborn.
