Hi, I'm Gail Stakhanov of Kaleidoscope Photography... I'm glad you're here!

Kaleidoscope - a constantly changing pattern or sequence of objects, elements, and colors whose reflections produce changing designs when rotated by the viewer.

For me, the kaleidoscope symbolizes the boundless beauty of light and color, and the endless possibilities within our collective human experience. I hope to capture for you this moment in your life, a snapshot turned into a precious memory - recorded for all time.

Located in bucolic Central Massachusetts, I specialize in portrait photography including High School Seniors, Children, Couples/Engagements, Families, Headshots/Personal Branding and special Holiday photos. I love working in natural light out in New England's rural landscapes but have an indoor studio option as well.

I am a wife and a mom of three busy children and two playful dogs. In my spare time I enjoy traveling the world, torturing my kids by taking their photos, sipping a hot coffee on a chilly morning or a frosty beverage on a sandy beach, the smell of warm chocolate chip cookies baking in the oven, and a fresh snowfall in the meadow.

I hope we can connect and create some beautiful memories together...
