Grandma's Best Buddies- Cranston, RI Portrait Photography

This portrait session was a gift to Grandma when she retired from teaching. Her goal was a canvas print for her new kitchen and I was so excited to see the photos they chose to print and hang. While taking the photos is a ton of fun, seeing the finished product on the wall is full circle! Don't forget to create those prints and hang those canvases.

Violet Josephine- In home newborn, Smithfield, RI

I adored doing this in home session. I don't do a lot of newborn photography but when I do, I really enjoy those tiny little toes, sweet little grins and fuzzy hair. Mom and Dad laughed the whole session which made it fun and relaxed. Congrats to the new family of three!

The C Family- Summer Session, Smithfield, RI

This is my little guy's Kindergarten teacher and her family. I can't say enough about what a wonderful teacher she is and how she helped him grow this year. I was really excited to meet her family and her kids are so lucky to have her as a mom!

Di and EJ- Cranston, RI Portrait Photography

Here's my friend of 30 years and her beautiful, sweet, giggly boy. I was so excited to capture these five month portraits after we did his newborn photos back in November. EJ is the best little boy. He didn't care that we went through outfit changes, location changes, and made him roll over many, many times. Watching your friends and their families grow is a blessing. 

A and K- Cranston, RI Engagement Photos

Oh fall foliage and golden sun set, you were so good to me for this beautiful couple's engagement photos. While the leaves were perfectly on fire with their color, these two and their love for one another stole the show. 

A's Senior Portraits- RI Senior Photography

I work with Aaron's mom so I was really excited to be able to take his senior portrait. He is just months away from making Eagle Scout, which is such an honor. I loved being able to take his yearbook portraits! Congrats!

Photos for First Responders- East Greenwich, RI Portraits, Giving Back

Last year, Kate Taylor from Polar Square Designs came up with an awesome concept- let's give back to first responders. I loved the concept but was late to the party on getting involved so I said "2017 is the year!" I got in touch with Kate the second she put out a call and next thing you know, over 16 photographers were out there photographing 150 families for no cost. It was SO awesome. Here's a bunch from different families. I had a blast and hope the families themselves did too!

 

The M Triplets Graduate- Rhode Island Senior Portraits

We took advantage of the blue skies and warm temperatures in May to do some senior photos for these great kids! The three of them are graduates of Cranston West and off to URI and New England Tech in the fall. They had a great relationship with each other and laughed from start to finish. Best wishes to you all as you start this new chapter!

E is one- Big sister/little sister portrait

Oh those little cheeks! Miss E came to visit for her first birthday portrait and her big sister was very proud of her. She helped me through the whole session and my favorite photos were the two girls and their mom together. Such a special time. 

T is One- Cranston, RI Portrait Photography, RI Children's Photography

This little guy was one of my first studio newborn sessions, so it was great to have him back in the studio with his mom's crafty cake making skills. I happened to mention a tin tub would be a fun end to the session and lo and behold, they happened to have one that was very important to their family. Family heirloom and artifacts make a session that much more meaningful! Love it!

 

W and J are Married

As I have mentioned, I am not a wedding photographer but I kind of relish in the fact that my friends ask me to bring my camera along. I was so incredibly fortunate to take some shots of Weston and Jen on their wedding day. I can't really sum up my friendship with Weston in a paragraph. He's been my friend for fifteen years and the only person I know I can count on to buy me Kenny Rogers concert tickets. Once he met Jen and she was willing to indulge us by saying she could tolerate K. Rog, I knew she was the one. I'm so happy to have shared the day with you.
