Sweet Mia | Rhode Island Newborn Photography

My second newborn session was with the beautiful, teeny tiny Mia.  You might remember Mia’s mommy’s maternity session, particularly this shot:

Well, she decided to come a few weeks earlier than originally planned – but it worked out perfectly.  At under six pounds she was definitely a small one but had no problem making herself heard loud and clear.  🙂  You’d think an early baby would sleep better but it’s not always the case.  Once she settled down, however, we got some gorgeous shots of her.  And I love love love the family shots.  Look how small she looks in her dad’s hands  ::melt my heart::  Congratulations, R family, she is perfect, N is an adorable big brother and you guys are a gorgeous family!!

Adorable Mister L | Rhode Island Baby and Family Photography

There are some clients you just immediately hit it off with.  And when mom and baby greeted me at the door and the first thing he did was give me a huge, gummy, double-chin, drooly smile I knew I was in for it.  (Doesn’t hurt that mom is a Steelers fan.  We Steeler fans must stick together here in Patriots land.)  We had a great session and mister L was just about as perfect as perfect can be.  He gave me all sorts of facial expressions, tons of smiles, lots of drool, lots of chub – lots of everything a girl can hope for.  🙂  I was saying yesterday that I am seriously going to be depressed when I am done with this session because every photo is making me smile!!!   I was so great to meet you D family!  He is absolutely perfect (as long as you raise him to be a Steelers fan).

One Year | Rhode Island Family Photography

I love this family.  That is all it comes down to.  One year to the day after their youngest was born, we met up for a family session on the beach.  You probably saw the one year cake smash session a few weeks ago on the blog. Now – the entire family.  On a gorgeous sunlit evening beach in Newport.  Perfection.

Vacation Cutie | Rhode Island Family Photography

When first contacted me a few months ago for this session, we talked about setting up a family shoot while they were down from Boston on vacation in July. Then all of a sudden it was July.  In a snap, the time had flown and we were ready!!  (How quickly the time is going is the subject for a whole separate post – craziness!)  The M. family met me at Colt State Park for their session this past Tuesday morning and we walked all over and up and down some of my favorite spots and some new ones as well.  Little A. was a total trooper as the weather got hotter and hotter – in fact I think she would have outlasted the three of us if she had had her choice!  We sang songs, we did bubbles, we had a great time.  🙂   Thank you for making a session with me part of your vacation, guys, and I’ll be in touch soon!!!  🙂

Birthday Girl | Rhode Island Baby Photography

So as I said in my previous post, I don’t normally do birthday sessions or cake smashes.  It’s not really my thing.  I don’t have studio space so there is nowhere to set it up.  But cake smashes have become all the rage so when a lovely past client came back asking if we could do one in the park I certainly could not say no.  🙂   So here we were at miss A.’s newborn session one year ago…

And here she is nowadays:

We had a great time setting up in the park for the shoot.  Mom had done SO much work ahead of time.  She made, by herself, not only a gorgeous giant cupcake cake but one that was vegan due to A.’s milk allergy.  Absolutely amazing!  She had also put together tissue paper pompoms and gotten balloons as well as stuff for a tea party with her other daughter.  So we had a tea party in the park followed by a cake smash.  A. was a little timid when it came to the smashing but she did love the taste of the frosting.  🙂
