Sophie | Rhode Island Newborn Photography

Baby Sophie decided to arrive a few weeks early, and only a very few short days after we did her mommy’s maternity session! Nick of time 🙂  I went out this past Tuesday for her newborn session and she was absolutely adorable!  Although we had a few little challenges to work around I was able to get some beautiful photos of her!!  We even got her pretty nursery in there as well as a kiss from big sister,  ::love::Family image with big sister kissing newborn on bedBeautiful newborn baby girl on pink blanket with pink and green hatNewborn baby with her father kissing herNewborn girl in beautiful pink, green and grey nursery

Enjoy her, M family!!  You have two gorgeous little girls!

Logan | Rhode Island Newborn Photography

When I arrived to do Logan’s newborn session I was hoping that at 8 days old he would be wonderfully sleepy.  He had other ideas.  Instead of sleeping for me, he had slept the night before for his mom and dad.  Which, really, is totally fine.  But it did make it a challenge.  🙂  He was still perfectly adorable at 8 lbs with a full head of hair and big GORGEOUS eyes.  Some of my favorite awake photos ever came during this session (like the one of him looking over mom’s shoulder – LOVE!)  Of course we all know what an awake baby means – extra snuggling time for me!!  🙂 I never ever mind that part of it.  He was so calm and happy when he was awake and then eventually took two short naps which allowed me a few sleeping photos.  I truly love what we got though and I’m beginning to love the awake photos even more!Rhode Island Newborn Photographer creates alert, awake baby boy images.Newborn photo of baby looking over mom's shoulderSleeping curled up newborn on a blue blanketSleeping newborn with hands on cheeks on a brown blanket

The D Family | Rhode Island Family Photography

Two years ago I did this little guy’s newborn session at five weeks old.  Mom and dad were in the middle of renovating their house and were living in an apartment downtown overlooking the river.  The house is now done, the baby is now two and their family is now perfect.  🙂  I headed out to their place on the water for some photos, this time including mom and dad and big brother and sister in the shots.  It was So. Much. Fun.  Seriously, this family is a riot. Mom and dad are incredibly funny and big brother and sister are very very good with a two year old and more than willing to be totally silly when asked.  And little D?  Although under the weather a bit at our session, he is just adorable.   I am also possibly slightly obsessed with his curls!!  We did photos in their gorgeous backyard, on the swingset to recreate a photo from a few years earlier and since dad works for FGX, of course we did some photos wearing the shades.  😉   

It was SO great to see you again S & A!!  I’ll be in touch soon!

Audrey | Rhode Island Photography

I don’t know if I am even supposed to share these, technically.  But you know what, I am.  I don’t really care.  🙂  Last weekend I got to go take some pictures of the gorgeous Audrey McClelland for a website that she is joining as the newest featured blogger (you’ve seen her on here before!).  The company asked for family shots and some shots of just her.  So out I went early Saturday morning and we did some lovely shots of all of the kids and her along with her husband, Matt (who is a fellow Steelers fan living in Pats country, yippee!)  With four boys under seven, I could not have ASKED for a better, easier shoot.  They were adorable and perfect.   The next evening, Matt started experiencing horrible stomach pains; he told Audrey it was like razor blades.  They took him to the ER thinking it was appendicitis or a really bad stomach bug.  After doing some tests and scans the news came back – a tumor by the colon.  He was taken into surgery the next day and the doctors removed a grapefruit sized tumor and resected part of his lower bowel and colon.  While they are still waiting for the full official biopsy reports, Audrey just said that it looks preliminarily like it is NOT cancer.  I have cried many times over this in the past week.  Matt is only 37.  With four gorgeous boys under seven and a sweet, beautiful wife.  Hearing that news from Audrey today was one of the best things I have heard in a very, very long time.  So as I said.  I’m not sure if I’m even supposed to share these.  But with this news I am too happy NOT to share.  This is such a reminder to hug your loved ones.  Tell them you love them.  Treasure every. single. moment.

Veronica | Rhode Island Baby Photography

I will be pretty sad when Veronica gets bigger.  Or, actually, when her parents sell their place.  It has this great blue wall with a white coverlet on the bed and the perfect window…sigh.  I used it for their clean and simple newborn photos HERE and then again this past weekend when we visited.  It’s great to work with friends – you just tell them “Actually I want her undressed on your pretty white blanket”  And they say “Okay!”  (Fine, if we’re being honest I would say it to a client as well.  But it’s a lot more comfortable when it’s friends.)  We went back to visit John and Rachel and see “baby Veronica” as my daughter calls her.  My has she changed!!  So much bigger with the most adorable little rolls.  I think she is just about the cutest seven month old on the planet.   No, I’m not biased at all!!!!  😉  But can you honestly look at these and tell me she isn’t?  Those cheeks, that dusting of red hair, those lips GAH!!  Perfection!  We even got to go outside for a few minutes and use the pram that was Rachel’s when *she* was a baby.  I have had plans for that since I saw it at her shower.  Ideally it would have been about 60 degrees warmer but I’ll take what I can.  She is perfect as are her mommy and daddy.  Much love to you guys!!  (And just remember, I need a blue wall in the new place, too.)
