Last year the R. family met me for a holiday mini session at Roger Williams.  This time they did a full session and threw in a new beautiful little baby girl to boot.  (Not newborn, just new to me!)  They braved a brisk Saturday morning and invading college cross country runners who were using Colt State as their championship location.  (Who knew!?)  This meant that I had to compete for attention with the giant buses that kept driving past – do you know how much three year old boys like buses??  😉  Luckily I think I held my own, the kids mostly held their own in the cold and mom and dad did great as usual.  It was so great seeing you guys again!  And remember – next year – August!!!

I have gorgeous clients.  I say this a lot to myself, and sometimes out loud.  I have really beautiful people that come to me.  My session on Monday was certainly no exception!  Scheduled last Thursday when mom realized that everyone would be home, the B. family met me at Roger Williams for some family shots Columbus Day afternoon.  Mom and dad and their three girls aged 2, 4 and 6.  Absolutely stunning.  All of them.  I cannot believe that mom has had three children and I cannot believe dad isn’t grey 😉  And the girls, well, I was telling my mother that rarely have I seen such an example of sisters who looked so different but SO similar.  It was like three totally different beauties but all clearly related to each other – especially when they got together!  Seeing them giggle and play and, yes even argue a bit, totally brought me back to growing up with MY sister (who is another example of so different with her tan skin and blond hair).  I had a lot of fun with them – you’d think it would be difficult with three kids to keep up your energy but it was so so easy! These girls were pros 🙂

Thank you for a delightful afternoon, B. family!!  Enjoy!

Remember when you were in middle school and you would get asked if you “Liked Johnny” or if you “LIKED liked Johnny?  There are some clients I just adore.  I will admit it.  I have my favorites.  I do.  (And I think that anyone who says they don’t is lying.)  That doesn’t mean I like my other clients less at all, I just have…people I LIKE like.  The C family is one of those families.  One of my first clients here in RI, I met them over a year ago to do family pictures of their little girls.  You might remember them…

And September of 2009

They must have like liked me as well because on Sunday we met up for some family pictures once more.  It was awesome to see how the girls have grown and have gotten even more beautiful.  I actually did not recognize them at first when I saw them walking in the parking lot at Borderland State Park because I thought that there was no way they were that big – but they were!!  Sweet little S. turned 2 the day of our Session and A. is a totally adorable firecracker of a five year old.  So many times during this shoot and in looking at the photos after I kept thinking “this picture is TOTALLY five.”  Or “this is SO what a two year old is.”  It’s just those ages.  Those awesome, fun, adorable ages.  One on the verge of being a supermodel posing and one not quite ready to let go but so wanting to be like her big sister.   🙂  We had fun traipsing all over Borderland – even hitting some areas I had never made it to!

Mom and dad it was so great to see you guys again, enjoy the sneak peek!!  And I TOTALLY blame you (nicely) for our having tacos for dinner that night!
