  • Albany Child and Family Photographer

    Thea Coughlin is an Albany, NY photographer whose unique, fun, boutique style of photography captures the art in life.
    I am a child and family photographer located in Albany, New York. I love spending time laughing with my clients and their families while capturing the story of their life in photographs. I live here in the Capital District with my delightful 5 yr old boy, my charming and loving husband and three cats.

    This site is a great place for new clients to get a sense of my personality and what a session with me might be like.
    I try to post a couple times a week about recent photo sessions, family fun activities, and cool finds that I think would add a great flair to family and child photographs. I hope you enjoy reading and seeing my photographs. Feel free to leave a note in the comments to say hello. I love knowing you stopped by.

What children take from us, they give.
We become people who feel more deeply,
question more deeply, and love more deeply. ~ Sonia Taitz

Last night I was editing these photographs, and when I starting working on the last of the three, tears started to well.

Something about the way they laughed together. The tender snuggles and their intimacy, that I captured in these photos…brought memories of the  tenderness I shared with my own mother,  right back to the present moment. What a gift that was.

I lost my mother to lung cancer 7 years ago. Witnessing and capturing this type of connection between mother and daughter fills me with such gratitude. Gratitude for having the mother I did and the connection we shared, gratitude that she taught me to feel deeply, love deeply and live passionately, and most of all gratitude for being a mother myself.

I couldn’t dream of having a better job.

****more yummy family photographs from Our World Montessori 2009 graduation still  to come…..
