The camera doesn’t stop time.
It gives you a way back into it.
Not just the image — the feeling inside it. Whatever brings you here, the work is the same: present, considered, and made to last.
Studio Nouveau has been doing this since 2006.
Documentary. Fine art. Yours.
Weddings
Every wedding is its own world — and it goes fast. You deserve photographs that give it back to you exactly as it felt.
The image you’ve earned.
Professional
A strong portrait does something a resume can’t — it tells people who you are before you say a word. We make professional photography that feels like you, not like a shoot.
The age they are right now.
Family+Life
They are exactly this age for exactly this long. The best family photographs aren’t staged, they’re recognized — by someone who knows exactly where to look.

Alchemy
Some portraits are about where you are. This one is about where you’re going. The Alchemy Session begins before the camera — and the images it produces tend to surprise even the people in them.
Lara and her team are just amazing. If you want your big day captured beautifully, stop looking and hire Studio Nouveau! After we locked down our venue, we knew that choosing a photographer would be an important decision. After finding Studio Nouveau, we were impressed immediately by Lara’s responsiveness and friendly demeanor over email; when we met her in her studio we were sold!

My husband and I were lucky enough to live in the same town as Studio Nouveau, so we stopped in after work one day and sat down with Lara, the owner. We weren’t interested in hiring a videographer for our wedding, which made picking the perfect photographer all that more important. When we sat down with her that hot/humid summer night, and she handed me an iced cold Narragansett summer shandy, I knew we would get along. Lara is easy to hang out with, she had us laughing from the moment we met her – which is very important!

I am at a loss for words at how perfect and beautiful the entire experience of working with Lara and Val was before the big day and during the wedding. From the very beginning during our engagement photo shoot, (which I suggest to every engaged couple in order to get used to the camera always being there during your big day) Lara made my husband and I feel completely comfortable and made it seem like we were just taking a walk in the woods.
