I met up with the M family for one of my mini holiday sessions that I did back in October. I couldn’t believe how big little sister S. had gotten since the last time I saw her she looked like this:
The entire family looked gorgeous – mom did a GREAT job on the colors. I just loved how they popped against the fall color backdrop!!
When the W. family booked a session with me this fall, I knew that there were absolutely no worries to be had or instructions to be given. Every single session we have done together, they have brought their A+++ game. And they did not disappoint. 🙂 Miss L. is a year bigger now – hard to believe she was only a few days old when we first met (although technically she was still in her mommy’s belly when we first did photos!) But the family has remained beautiful inside and out. Love these guys!

My busy weekend ended this past Sunday with a visit to the S family. We did holiday photos last year as well as newborn photos earlier this year. This time it was back for more fall photos. Although I am not sharing any of the family photos now, I will definitely be doing it later – they were so gorgeous with the golden yellow of the leaves! (Have I mentioned I love New England fall?!?!) It was so great to see now only how big sister had grown over the year but how baby H. was no longer a squishy newborn but instead a beautiful super happy almost seven month old. We had a gorgeous day to work with and the girls did so so well!! I swear, you cannot look at these photos and NOT smile!! 🙂
Every day I am reminded that I am so, so lucky to do what I love and to have people invite me into their homes and into their lives. Although it is a lot of work behind the scenes that people never know about, there is truly nothing I could love doing more. This past weekend, meeting a new family, was the perfect example. Way back in May, M. contacted me to buy a gift certificate for his wife for Mother’s Day (yay for a cool present!!). He wanted a family session with the two of them and their little guy, so the two of us discussed timing and decided to wait until the Fall when little L. was a bit bigger. Although we were “weathered” out the first day, this past Sunday was the absolute PERFECT day for their session! We started off with just a few shots in their home and then went down to Blackstone Boulevard. If you are at all familiar with the East Side of Providence you know about Blackstone Boulevard and the strip of green space that runs the center of it. It was my first time getting to shoot there but it was such a gorgeous location. People were out jogging, the sun was shining, the weather was beautiful and this family was just perfect. From the outfits down to their smiles and obvious overwhelming love for their little guy. And how about him? Oh. My. Gosh. I said in my Facebook preview but I’ll say it again here. When mom opened the door and I saw those eyes and lashes and that hair and that face I just about died. Tell me he is not the cutest thing ever?!?? Thank you SO much M. for thinking of me for a present. And I., here’s hoping we lived up to your expectations. 🙂
