I nominate Carissa Andrews. I met Carissa and her husband Jon when my husband was in the end stage of cancer and we were forced to sell our beloved home in Torrington and move to FL to be near family for his remaining time. Our home was more than a house it was where we were raising our children and our dreams for a future was in that home; unfortunately, that wasn’t going to happen for us, but it could for the beautiful couple that bought our home and knew they wanted to raise a family there. That couple was Carissa and Jon. Their first child is due in a couple of months and I want all of their hopes and dreams to be fulfilled.

This tiny human has literally been years in the making. Through many ups and unfortunately too many downs to think about, April never lost her positive attitude. She graciously watched the rest of her friends have babies and always showed them abundant love and never ending grace. As my little girl’s godmother, she treats her like she is her own child. She is a true angel amount us.
If there was ever someone who deserved one of your beautiful sessions, it is this amazing human being. Please choose her!

I nominate Kaitlin Voglesong and her husband John. As with many moms and dads of this generation they daily do a juggling act of caring for their children wonderfully, performing at the highest level in their professions, caring for their two dogs and all the unforseens that happen during their busy days. Are they frazzled at times? Sure, but most dayS they are enjoying life at its fullest. They offer their children much love but also instill in them a sense of adventure, curiosity and wonder. They add many life experiences which includes other members of their extended family as well. In today’s world having a strong extended family is so important. Kaitlin and John have seemed to master that juggling act I referenced earlier. The birth of their 3rd child can only bring on more fulfillment. I think they deserve this package.

While I’m certain all of the nominees are amazing moms, I can only speak personally for Amanda and say that even with her friendships, she has that genuine motherly care and concern, and just wants the best for those that she loves. There is no exception when it comes to motherhood and those qualities are only magnified. She has done an exceptionally amazing job raising the sweetest little girl in the entire world and I know she’ll do just as incredible when she welcomes her little boy this July. You could offer her the chance to win this photo session or a weekend getaway and I know without a doubt she’d choose the photos because for Amanda, there’s no greater prize/reward/gift than the life she’s already brought into this world and the life she’s about to. I know that she would truly value and appreciate even the thought of having these memories to look back on and would be utterly grateful if she were to actually be chosen. For these reasons (and a million more), I hope she wins!
With out reservation I would love to nominate Amanda O’Brien for the Mama Newborn Session. Amanda is already a wonderful mother and soon will add a second little bundle to her family. She juggles her family with our work family, always with a smile and a infectious energy. On perfect days she shares her daughter (and soon her son) with us, with baby days at the office. What a gift this session would be for Amanda and her young family.
Julia Wozniak is my nominee For the mamas photography session. She is my daughter. she is a beautiful person inside and out this is her first child and it would mean the world to her to have this session done.
Awww thanks dad!
Amanda O’Brien is my nominee for the Mama Newborn Session. She has been a devoted and dedicated mother to her first daughter and always putting family first in all she does. Looking so much forward to her next child and sibling for her daughter. Amanda has been successful at balancing home and work, which is not an easy task, but Amanda has been able to give 100% to both and make it seem effortless. So, on top of being a wonderful person in her own right, I hope you can grant her this wish for all she does for her family and friends.

Hi Saren, I nominate my Aunt Meghan! She has recently given birth to her 6th child, Milo. She is THE BEST mama to my 6 little cousins, Rhys, Luca, Faith, Levi, (my Godson) Abel, and now baby Milo. My Aunt Meghan came into my life at an early age, and I can’t imagine life without her and my little cousins! Growing up, her and my uncle Wesley always made me feel so loved and I knew they’d be amazing parents. I never expected what was to come, they are better parents than I could ever describe. My little cousins mean so much to me and are the kindest souls you’ll ever meet and that is thanks to their parents without a doubt. Both work full-time jobs while going above and beyond for their 6 little children (their eldest being only 14 years old). I, truly, have never witnessed this kind of love and care. My aunt spends the day caring for my cousins until my uncle comes home from his job to then go on to work a night shift at a local restaurant. Everyday. Somehow she stills finds time in her busy schedule to be there for me as well! She is an inspiration to me and I could think of no one more deserving of this gift than her! I love you Aunt Meghan, you’re my hero! Xo Maria
Hi there! My name is Carissa Andrews and I am due the first week of April with my first baby (a little girl ????) My husband and I are absolutely over the moon and I would be honored to be nominated for this wonderful keepsake. I have been following Saren’s work for some time now in hopes of one day being able to partake in a session with a little one of my own. I also have two friends that have had sessions and the work is just perfection. Thank you for sharing your work and for your consideration.
Definitely consider Carissa Andrews for this wonderful gift!
My sister, Melissa Geraci is an extremely hard working Mom who is expecting her second child within the month! While pregnant for more than half of it, she kept up the hustle and was the salesperson of the year for her medical device company. Not only is she a mom boss but she takes care of everyone around her including her daughter, Isabella. She has had a tough pregnancy health-wise and I think she definitely deserves something special to do for her second born son Gino when he comes and this photoshoot would be perfect! They both deserve it.
My sister, Lauren Bode, is due in May with her miracle baby – the one she never thought she’d have due to some fertility challenges that left her chances of conceiving slim to none. As she anxiously awaited her first cycle of IVF, being careful not to get too hopeful as even chances with IVF were slim, we all got the BEST news that somehow she was pregnant! Happy doesn’t begin to describe how we all feel about this – we are a baby-loving family and this little nugget will be loved infinitely! How incredible it’d be to have Saren capture her first days…
I would love to be considered!
I would like to nominate myself, Kristy Foran. This is my second baby and second boy. He’s due this July right after Kace turns 2! I’m a little nervous for the mom of two role, but so excited and thankful. Becoming a mom has truly been the greatest blessing and adventure of my life. Capturing that time when they’re so little and new is so special and important. There’s no one who brings these images to life better then saren. We have been putting off getting married because I wanted to have another baby close in age to big brother, Kace. This would be an amazing gift to receive this giveaway as I would likely not be able to afford it saving for a wedding. Thank you for your generosity with this giveaway saren!
I would like to. Nominate Nilom Patel she is dew in couple weeks. She is a best person I know. And she is my wife and my best friend.
My coworker and great friend Shelby Zukowski is due with her baby boy in just a few short weeks! She is a special education teacher who goes above and beyond for her kiddos every single day. She is an inspiration and I can’t think of a more deserving person to receive this gift
I’d like to nominate my daughter Melissa Geraci. She is pregnant with her second child, a son and is a mother to a 21/2 year old daughter. My reason for nominating her is that she is MY role model. She is a strong woman who works hard, is a hands on Mom, nurtures her relationship with her husband, maintains her friendships, always makes time for her sister, visits her grandmother regularly and always sends daily messages to wish everyone a wonderful day. For all that she does I would like to see her recognized in such a lovely way.
I would personally love the opportunity to do this newborn session with you! Our first little girl is due the first week of April, and my husband and I are obsessed with your work! With our recent move to Connecticut, new job and house, a newborn session isn’t feasible on a new baby budget. However, we look forward to using you for future family milestones regardless of this contest! Thanks for this contest and for your consideration ????
I’d like to nominate my best friend, Shelby Zukowski. Shelby is the kindest person I know, who gives all of herself to everyone around her. She is a special education teacher who won the “Teacher of the Year” award at her elementary school. She is going to be the worlds BEST mom, I can’t wait to watch her thrive in this new and exciting chapter!
I would like to nominate my sister Auste. She is an incredible mother to her first daughter and is expecting another one in April;)
I’d like to nominate my beautiful sister Samantha Diouf. She is pregnant with her third child & we’re all SO excited! She is the most selfless person I know and the best mom there is. She is always the first person to offer help and puts everyone before herself. She deserves this more than anyone! She’s beautiful on the inside & the out- not to mention she makes really cute freakin babies! Love you Sam bone! ????
Kendra Gomez is the sweetest and kindest sister in law I could have ever asked for. After being an amazing auntie to my boys and her sisters four kids, always lending a hand to help us, her and my brother are expecting their first child in May. Would love for them to have such a wonderful gift.
@pagenoelle Paige is a deserving mama!! She is pregnant with boy/girl twins and has the most adorable 2 year old boy!
Melissa Tharau, best kindergarten teacher ever, expecting baby number 1! Selflessly gives her all every day for other people’s children. One of the most requested teachers in our building…by other teachers for their own kids. Goes above and beyond every day and totally worthy of these beautiful photos.

I would like to nominate Carissa Andrews for this wonderful gift
