Jen and Audrey | Rhode Island Photography

I would love to tell you everything that Jen and Audrey do here in Rhode Island.  But honestly I couldn’t even begin to list it all.  Let’s just say they do a LOT.  Like a LOT LOT (on top of having three and four kids, respectively).  You have seen Jen on here before, we did photos of just her a few weeks ago (in fact go read that and then you can see everything she is involved in!)  But this time we included Audrey with her in order to do some pictures for Rhody Mamas.  If you have not discovered them yet on Facebook you simply MUST.  It is the THE place to get all of the info on sales and things going on in RI and on the internet.  They just launched their website HERE and have a very active Facebook page HERE.  But since they started this and had no photos we decided to get some done for them.  (Let me tell you, between Dani that morning and these two that evening my self-esteem took quite a hit.  Such gorgeous gals!)  We hit up the Capitol building, an area down by the river and ended up in Prospect Park overlooking the city with the setting sun.  Love it!

Dani | Rhode Island Maternity Photography

I have known Dani what seems like forever now.  I knew her before we moved to RI and she is by far my closest friend here.  I’ve done several sessions with her now – her first maternity with her daughter, their newborn session and then a family session last fall.  So if she looks familiar, well, she’s been on here a lot.  😉  Now she is pregnant again and they are expecting a little BOY anytime in the next few weeks yay!!  🙂  I started bugging her early on about planning her maternity session. Her complaint?  She thinks winter maternity clothes are ugly.  HA!  Take a look at these and see just how “awful” she looks.

Truly one of the most breathtakingly beautiful pregnant women ever, I think.  🙂  And before we all hate how amazing she looks at 36 weeks it is very important to know that she is also a runner and very health conscious.  She has run (I believe) three half marathons this pregnancy or two halves and one full – including a half at 28 weeks!!    

And being the great friend that she is, we did some realllllly funny stuff.  Most of it is going to stay with just her in the fear that someone would think it was real and submit it to Awkward Family Photos.  But here’s just a little tiny hint.  This is just the tip of the iceberg  😉

Five Days of Birthday Giveaway – Day 3

First off, congratulations to Stephanie, yesterday’s winner according to Random.org.  Stephanie I emailed you so make sure you get back to me!  🙂

Ahhhh..Day 3.  Today is for the locals (or people willing to drive here).  One of my most favorite things.  Wine.  Who doesn’t like a good bottle of wine??  (Well I guess there are people that don’t.  But I don’t know any of those people.)  Unfortunately pesky little interstate and mailing laws prohibit me from mailing my favorite bottles of wine to anyone.  BUT I can give away a $25 gift card to my most favorite wine store – The Savory Grape down in E. Greenwich.  It’s a wonderful place if you haven’t discovered them yet!  They are extremely knowledgable and very helpful.  They even keep track of your purchases if you sign up for the club card and can recommend wines based on past purchases.  And they give a discount when buying six bottles or more.  Not that I would EVER do such a thing.  😉  (It’s my husband.  All him.  I sent him to buy this and he came home with eight bottles. See??  Bad influence.)

Anyways.  Free money ($25!).  To buy WINE with (and they have some GOOD stuff).  If wine is not for you, stick it in someone’s stocking who does like it!  Same rules as always, leave a comment below for your chance to win.  Entries accepted until midnight, winner selected tomorrow.  Obviously you must be 21 years of age or older to win.  Or give it to someone 21 or older.

Good luck!  🙂

Five Days of Birthday Giveaway – Day 2

First, congratulations to Kate for winning yesterday’s giveaway!  She was lucky number 18 from random.org.

Today something for the ladies.  🙂  When I first moved to RI I started to hear about “Alex and Ani“. I had NO clue who they were or what they did but I heard the name mentioned constantly.  Turns out it is this wonderful jewelry company based right here in Rhode Island.  Their mission: “to design products that adorn the body, enlighten the mind, and empower the spirit.”  And the main thrust of their business is bracelets.  Adorable, simple, meant-to-be-stacked bracelets.  They offer a huge variety – bracelets with stones, bracelets with beads, lots of options.  And the idea is that you keep getting more and more and stacking them on top of each other.  My favorite out of all of the styles is the single charm bracelet.  Delicate and simple and with a sliding mechanism that allows it to fit all sizes of wrists.  I have always sworn off bracelets when suggested, believing that they get in the way, they are bulky, annoying, etc.  It is NOT the accessory I would ever do.  Until these!!  I got two for myself with the kid’s initials on them and I think my husband’s jaw actually dropped when I showed him that I was wearing *bracelets*.  Unfortunately since the move I cannot find them and miss them very much (hint, hint, husband).  So I have decided to give one away.  Get some lucky person started on a collection.  (Lots of RI women already have them so you’d just be adding on.)  These guys get mentioned everywhere from Lucky Magazine, to Real Simple to Sports Illustrated to People, etc.  So get in on it!

The one I’ve chosen to give away is the Path of Life bracelet.  I was taken not only with the design but with the intended meaning behind it:
“this charm illustrates life’s twists, turns and unexpected winds, all the while complimenting the beauty in its pattern”

Man does that sound like the lives of most mothers LOL!!Same as yesterday, simply leave a comment below to be entered and I will select one person at random tomorrow morning!  Good luck!

🙂

Awaiting Logan | Rhode Island Maternity Photography

There is something about a maternity session. I’ve said it before but I’ll say it again.  There is just something I love.  Capturing that last period of time before this little tiny human being arrives; the happiness, the excitement.  All of that rolled together just makes me love them.  And Saturday morning’s session was all of that and more.  These two are SO excited for their new little guy to join them.  There was so much laughter and smiling and just excitement. It takes about 30 seconds of being around them before you know.  🙂  And they are going to make SUCH great parents when he gets here.  I cannot wait to meet him!
