Precious | Rhode Island Baby Photography

I have been extremely busy these past few weeks – 9 sessions in eight days topped by a wedding this past Saturday.  Awesome and fun but super intense and slightly exhausting.  As a result though, I have tons of things to share as you could probably tell by the number of posts last week.  I have more this week!!!

First up today is a very very incredibly special session.  Last year around Christmas time I took part in a national program called “Giving is Awesome.”  Basically it was to find a very deserving family and give them the gift of photography.  A session and all of the files from that session.  I got several wonderful, amazing and heartbreaking entries but the one that stood out to me the most was the story of baby Violet.  I don’t want to get into too many details, but mom has had many struggles over the years with some major health issues and their dream of having a baby didn’t ever seem to be happening.  Through a few blessed twists of fate, they were able to adopt the beautiful baby Violet.  Her adoption was just finalized last month and she turns one any time now.  So it was the perfect time to do their session and celebrate what a miracle they have received.

We had such a great time during their session and Violet is not only beautiful, but so sweet and scrumptious.  And as a side note, it turned out that both the nominator and the nominee went to UConn with Matt so he got to reconnect with them as well.  Good all around 🙂   Enjoy!

Sweet Baby C | Rhode Island Family Photographer

I met up Saturday morning with one of my nursery contest runners up.  When I offered a special session for them, T. jumped right on it which I was really excited about because, personally, I adored her nursery.  And it didn’t disappoint in person.  So well put together, so cute and so perfect for little C.  Pink and green and owls everywhere you looked.  The theme just carried through beautifully into even the tiniest details.  And C. was perfectly adorable.  Mom had told me ahead of time that they were used to her “serious” look.  Let me tell you, I got a LOT of serious 🙂  But can you blame her?  This stranger coming into your room and yard with a big old camera?  I’d be pretty darned suspicious as well!!  We started in the yard and then spent some time in her beautiful nursery.  I had such a good time with her, even if she didn’t find me nearly as funny as I think I am 😉

Mommy & Me Sessions! | Rhode Island Family Photography

Are you wondering what to do for Father’s Day?  Did you think about photos but didn’t want to go all out?  If so, my “Mommy & Me” mini sessions may be perfect for you!!  These are special sessions that are, as the title states, only for mommies!  The ones who never get in front of the camera, the ones who are usually taking the photos.  Do your hair and makeup, grab the kids and meet me in the park for some photos!  These will be held in Roger Williams park on Sunday May 23 and there will only be four slots available.  (The rain date will be Saturday June 5.)  Check below for more details and if you are interested in booking a session, contact me!

One Year! | Rhode Island Family Photography

I ended my work week last week with the beautiful little Miss P. and her mom and dad.  Mom had wanted some one year old shots so we met up at Roger Williams Park on Friday which turned out to be her actual birthday!  That usually doesn’t happen.  Usually I see the kids right before or right after, not on their birthday.  But her birthday it was so we set out for some photos of just her and a few family shots as well.  P. was (next to newborns) my absolute FAVORITE stage to photograph.  She is old enough to sit up and loves life and people but can’t yet run away shrieking from me walk.  So while mom and dad (and sometimes grandparents) helped to make her laugh, growl and smile, I snapped away.  It was, after two amazing newborns, an amazing toddler session.  She did phenomenally well and we were done in possibly record time which is always good – both for the subject and the photographer! 😉

Happy happy birthday sweet baby girl, I hope your party was wonderful!!!
