Backyard Baby Photography | Rhode Island Baby Photography

Backyard baby photo sessions are awesome. Everything feels comfortable and natural, and you get to capture little moments that really tell the story of who they are right now. This session in Providence was just that—a perfect mix of play, curiosity, and personality.

At the time of her session, Hailey was walking while holding hands and sitting and juuust starting to take steps on her own, which made the session extra fun and full of movement! We spent some time outside in their backyard first, letting her explore, take a few wobbly steps with mom and dad, and enjoy the fresh air. Babies at this age are just the cutest thing—every little stumble, every excited laugh, every face scrunch became a moment worth capturing.

After our time outside, we headed inside to the cozy living areas. This is where some of my favorite images came from— reading books, playing with a ball, and interacting with each other. Those everyday activities, when photographed naturally, become timeless memories. The baby giggles, the curiosity, and the way they look up at their parents—all of it tells the story of these moments in your life.

One of my favorite things about in-home sessions is that the environment is already meaningful. There’s no need for fancy props or studio setups—just your baby being themselves in the spaces they know and love. And capturing a baby at this age, right as they’re learning to walk and sit, is such a fun and special milestone.

Sessions like this remind me why I love baby photography so much. It’s about the little moments that slip by too fast—the first steps, the way they love a certain book, the open mouth kisses. These are the images parents cherish forever.

I can’t wait for everyone to see these sweet memories from this Providence session.

Maternity Session in Lincoln Woods | Rhode Island Maternity Photos

When Maya first reached out for maternity and newborn photos I had no idea how gorgeous all of it would be. We decided to do her maternity photos at Lincoln Woods park. It’s a great location because it offers a few different looks all in one spot. She showed up looking like a straight up maternity model. She wore a beautiful bodycon knit dress that showed off her belly perfectly! I always offer a maternity guide to all of my clients and have two super popular blog posts that are years old but still have relevant concepts. In there I talk about the difference between different styles and bodycon is one of my favorites!

We had a gorgeous October morning just as the leaves were changing. We also had the most beautiful light for our time together. We explored a few different areas to get a few different looks throughout the session. However, I think my favorite parts were by the stone wall and then Maya and Amanjot strolling through the trees by the picnic table. I always back off a bit to let couples have private conversations during maternity photos. It’s enough to have a giant camera pointed at you; to also have someone close enough to hear every single word is a bit much. But I have learned over the years that when I back off things are more natural. It’s more relaxed, and more intimate and frankly the photos look better.

All told we spent probably 45 minutes together doing photos and had such a fantastic time. One of the best parts was that they were also doing a newborn session! The maternity session really allowed me to get to know them, and them to get to know me and how I work. It makes the newborn session SO much easier when clients book a maternity, too. Plus why not have photos of both? 😉

Providence RI Family Photography | In Home Lifestyle Session

I am sure I have said it before, but one of the things I love about storyteller sessions is getting to photograph families in their home and just telling the story of their lives. Nothing fancy, nothing posed. Just sweet loving families being themselves. This family was certainly no exception. Mom reached out to schedule her session just in time for her sweet boy’s first birthday in their home on the east side of Providence. Now I have said (and firmly believe) that any home works for photo sessions. But I do ADORE homes on the east side. Most are much older with all of the features of an old home and this one did not disappoint. A wonderful staircase and hallways with high ceilings that we made so much use of in their images!! But the best part was the people inside the home. We all know no matter how awesome the house if the people aren’t fun, it won’t work.

Thankfully, they were fantastic!! We did fun images on mom and dad’s bed – which little kids always love – as well as some in his nursery. If you can see it in the crib image, the picture above it was actually a painting of his dad with his dad. I loved that little touch that we could include for them (and it’s something so personal you cannot get in a studio setting). We had so much fun in our time together. Our session – and their resulting gallery – was full of laughs and smiles and book reading and tickling and crawling and flying. We played games and sang silly songs and stopped for a snack when it was needed. We bounced on ottomans and in cribs, crawled and drooled. There were hugs and kisses, quiet moments and loud laughter filled ones. All the fun things you want in your family photo session.

I met the Tiller family while traveling to Dallas for a conference. Occasionally I available for travel outside Rhode Island upon request depending on my schedule that month. It’s so exciting when I’m asked to travel simply because someone loves my work even though I’m not as close to them as other photographers!

You can view their session video at the blog link below!

Dallas Love

I knew Autumn, in the beautiful pink dress, from a physicians’ spouse group. We met for the first time on this day! It was a super warm day but we found the perfect spot at a very large park to have some fun while I captured their sweet interactions. It’s important to me to photograph your family just being. Laughing, playing, cuddling. Those are the precious memories you’ll want to remember. The Tiller family did not disappoint with their love for one another. You could feel the love they have for their son, Dev; their pride and joy!

Here are some of my favorite images from their family portrait session!

Providence Urban Family Photography

My second family photography session during my day of Urban Mini Shoots in downtown Providence is a family I’ve worked with a few times now. The first time was during mom’s maternity session with the younger sister, and then again at her newborn session and then last year for some family photography for holiday photos. I love when clients return over time and use me for their family photography sessions- it is such an honor to get to photograph them at different points and watch their families grow!!! This year our sessions was wonderful – we walked around a bit down by the Providence River and spent some time over at the railing with the city in the background. And again, I used the bridges. What can I say? I love bridges. I also have a family shot from this session that I LOVE but that will have to wait until after the holidays to share as I don’t have permission from mom yet 😉 S. & A. were delights to photograph and I fell in love with S’s wrinkly nose smile!! And big sister, well she is just growing and growing – such a beauty with those blue eyes <3 Even mom and dad got in on some solo shot action – yes, again I made them kiss. I love love LOVE the shot of them in black and white with the tall buildings behind them!! Side note – if you come to do family photography with me, be prepared to kiss everyone. I love kisses!! Here are a few sneak peeks from our session together – enjoy!
