Snowy Maternity Photos in East Greenwich | Rhode Island Maternity Photography

Snow is something we are familiar with in Rhode Island, and there is something magical about a snowy maternity session! It wasn’t a lot that day, but the quiet, soft blanket of white, the crisp air, and the cozy feeling of being wrapped up warm—it’s a perfect backdrop for celebrating a growing family. And when you get to capture repeat clients? Even better. There’s a familiarity, a comfort, and a shared excitement that makes the session feel extra special.

This maternity session took place in the family’s own backyard in East Greenwich, Rhode Island, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Big sister brought such joy, laughing, and snuggling with mom and dad. Those moments—the little hands on the belly, curious glances, and quiet smiles—are exactly what make maternity sessions so meaningful.

Mom looked gorgeous in both a flowy long dress and a shorter one, and we kept the session playful and relaxed. Sometimes the best shots are the spontaneous ones: a twirl in the snow, a giggle at the camera, or a gentle kiss on mom’s cheek. I love capturing these moments—they’re real, personal, and completely reflective of your family.

Working with repeat clients is always such a treat. I get to see the growth of your family, the connections you’ve built, and the love that already exists. And having a big sister involved adds so much emotion to the session. The anticipation, the gentle protectiveness, and the excitement for the new baby are all there in each photo.

If you are thinking about a maternity session in winter, I always suggest cozy layers, warm shoes, and some patience with the little ones—but don’t worry, it’s worth it! The snow adds a magical, timeless element to the images that you’ll treasure for years to come.

Take a look at some of my favorite moments from this East Greenwich backyard snow session below!

Sibling Newborn Session | Rhode Island Newborn Photographer

I have said before I love newborn sessions with siblings. First babies are always fun but it’s no secret I adore the siblings. And sometimes I extra adore the siblings when they are as awesome as this one was. Being an older sibling, M was MORE than ready to show off her new little baby brother She was so incredibly adoring and loving and sweet with him. Even at their original consultation before the session, she was already excited about the baby so when I got there and she was getting to hold and snuggle him? The BEST. Mom and dad were also over the moon with their new baby boy (and I dont think I’ve ever seen a mini clone of a parent quite like this little guy hahaa!)

We spent a good time of their storyteller session capturing fun and beautiful family photos – even incuding one with one of the cats!! I adore seeing how babies fit into family dynamics both literally and figuratively. Finding the room to hold them in the family group photos while everyone else gathers around is so much fun. I love the little squeezes and looks that can happen. The sweet looks, the laughs, the pure love and joy in that family grouping. The life of the family has changed so much in such a short period of time, and so so very completely that the emotions that come out are just the best. After family photos it was time for solo baby cuteness. I mean – the sleeping stuff was good but check out that face and those expressions he was giving me during some awake time as well!

Rhode Island Family Photographer – Fall Family Field Fun

No matter what other weather we have here in New England, fall makes up for it every year. There is absolutely nothing like being a Rhode Island family photographer in the fall – the golden sun, the leaves, the weather. It is the perfect setting for photos. As a result, when you have a family photography session that falls on one of those perfect days, some magic happens. There simply isn’t another explanation. It’s just…magical.

Meeting up with the B family was one of those such days. Where everything just worked perfectly. We walked until we found the field I wanted. After that it was time to let that magic happen. I strongly believe it setting things up and then letting the action happen naturally. I might give some prompts or ideas, but it’s never strongly posed, as you will see. Letting families be natural and have fun makes for such beautiful images. They laughed, and did ring around the rosie, and ran through trails and just stopped everything for a small bit of time to be a family and to love on one another. The best.

If you are interested in pre-planning your fall photos (always a good idea because it gets busy!) A few of my favorite places in the fall for photos in and around Rhode Island:
Cumberland Monastery
Lincoln Woods
Joe’s Rock
Colt State Park
Goddard State Park
Blue Hills Reservation
Borderland Park (**please note at time of publishing there is a parking fee as well as a photography permit and fee required for sessions)

Senior Photos Rhode Island | Sasha M.

When Sasha’s mom contacted me to do senior photos for her, I was over the moon. I don’t get to do a lot of images for seniors, as the majority of my work is with babies and younger kids. But already knowing mom and Sasha’s youngest sister, I didn’t hesitate to say yes – because I knew it would be beautiful and fun!

We did the session at their house in their gorgeous yard. With goats, and dogs, and cats, and amazing natural beauty, there was so much to work with! First we did images with just Sasha since it was her senior session. Later, we added in mom and dad and siblings. I am such a sucker for parent images. There is something so sweet about them, especially as kids get older. I look at my son, who is a freshman in high school, and I cannot imagine doing senior photos with him! It seems so far off, and yet so close.

To finish the session, we did some photos with the goats, and then Sasha changed into her high school lacrosse uniform to celebrate the sport she loved. Being on top of a hill on their property I couldn’t resist getting a gorgeous silhouette as the sun set behind the trees!!

I wish her all the best of luck with college, and for the first and likely only time ever, I will say Roll Tide. 😉

Gorgeous ten day old newborn

I headed out to Providence about two weeks ago to photograph the gorgeous ten day old newborn miss Iris. I actually did big brother’s newborn session a little over two years earlier as well. It was beyond special to get to go back and photograph the new family of four! We got some absolutely precious images of big brother with Iris – some of my favorites ever in any session. <3 And Iris herself was just adorable. Though at only 10 days old she did fight me on sleeping for a while, she eventually gave some beautiful sleeping images as well. We also did some images with mom and dad that simply took my breath away seeing them on the LCD and then the computer. Here are a few of my favorites from our session together.

Enjoy! 🙂
