THE FRONT PORCH PROJECT
Hi, I'm Katie!
I'm a Southington, CT native. I spend these days wrangling three little boys at home, homeschooling, running a 24/7 diner and juggling two businesses that I'm extremely passionate about. I miss leisure trips to Target and yoga classes at the YMCA.
Photography and the 50+ Front Porch Photo Sessions I've done so far have been my creative outlet. A way of spreading joy to families and giving back to our communities in need. I'm grateful for all of it.
How it Works
Social Distancing will be fully enforced. I have a long lens which allows me to photograph from 10+ feet away. Most of the time I'm on the sidewalk or street taking the photos. This is a quick session...10-15 minutes tops.

Three photo set-ups will be taken. Traditional family photo, just kids and then get creative and have fun. Show us how life looks now. Include props, signs, your jammies, your pets...anything goes!

You will receive three hi-res edited images back via email within one week. You can post to social media or you can print these out for the photo album and historical record keeping!

A signed contract and payment reserves your spot. Currently open to Southington residents only.

$100 for the session and three edited digital images.
$25 from each session will be donated back to our #southingtonstrong community
For the month of April I was fortunate enough to do 50+ front porch photos for families. Collectively several thousands of dollars were raised and 100% was donated to organizations in need including:
-Bread for Life in Southington
-Naugatuck Ecumenical Food Bank (my hometown)
-empoweringHer a non-profit for girls who have lost their mothers
I am proud of the money raised for these causes, but like all of us I have a family that I'm supporting and am also trying to keep my business afloat during these uncertain times. Your participation helps keep this photography obsessed mompreneur going while supporting local organizations in need.
Organize a neighborhood Party!
Booking multiple families on one street enables me to do more sessions in an efficient manner. Get three neighbors to book with you and each will receive an extra image at no additional cost!
Katie Pugliese Photography, LLC- Compliance with Executive Order 7H
On March 20, 2020, Gov. Ned Lamont issued Executive Order 7H, directing all businesses and nonprofit entities in the State of Connecticut to utilize, to the maximum extent possible, any telecommuting or work from home procedures that they can safely employ.
As the sole member of Katie Pugliese Photography, LLC, I am deemed exempt and do not need to submit a request to be designated as an Essential Business by the State of Connecticut.
According to the Governor’s Executive Order, non-essential businesses may continue activities that are conducted off-site (e.g. a customer’s home) and/or by telecommuting or working from home. These photoshoots will only be conducted at the homes of my valued clients, and I will maintain strict adherence to social distancing guidelines at all times.
