The F Family- Warwick, RI Family Portraits, East Greenwich, RI Photography

E is 4- East Greenwich, RI Portraits, RI Family Photographer
/Miss E turned four this summer so we hit the beach for a few photos. It was really hot that day so I had to let the kids cool off in the ocean for a few pics and then we went in search of some shade. I love Goddard Park for this reason- it's got it all. Beach…woods…bridges. You can get a lot of looks within a short walk. No portrait is complete without including your best friend-- so Ryan jumped in for a few and his blue eyes were stunning!
The S Family- Lincoln, RI Family Portraits, Lincoln, RI Family Photographer
/Jen and I are so similar. She books her family portraits literally 12 months in advance and I LOVE THAT because I'm like that too. Jen likes to have time to plan everything out and for us to have ample time to look at locations. I happened to drive around Lincoln a few months ago and I emailed her saying that I thought I had found a good location. We decided where to meet and then I called her that day and said, "Oh! I found a place with better lighting!" The kids had a great time just running around and enjoying nature. I love that the kids bring their favorite stuffed animals with them. It's so much fun to see how their likes and favorites change year to year!
The C Family- Cranston, RI Family Photography
/Matt and Tara, the brains, beauty and creative forces behind Blueflash Photography, do a family photo swap with us each year. For about a month leading up to it, we exchange all kind of emails that say things like, "Where should we do this?" "I don't know. What do you think?" "I'm not sure. Ask Tara." Then we ask Tara, and she says she isn't sure. LOL. It's tough to find a spot that suits both families, isn't too crowded and has a chance for multiple looks. We ended up in Warwick at Rocky Point and LOVED it. Matt, Tara, Ez and Finn are a great family to work with because they are easy going and happy to have their pictures taken. I think we both go into these sessions with the expectation that we trust each other's judgment and we know they are photos of us, just as we are now. So, if the kids cry or they aren't into standing in one spot, we go with it. Emmett spent half the session running in circles but Matt still got great photos. I guess you just have to embrace the "anything goes," when working with toddlers. I will take candid, fun, laughter and sun flare over posed any day and I'm glad the Celeste family does too!
Nolan is 1- Cranston, RI Portrait Photography
/This little man was all smiles for his 1 year portrait session. We had so many looks but my favorite part was when Mom took out the guitar to use a prop. They gave the photo to Nolan's dad as a gift.
The P Family- Narragansett, RI Family Portraits
/Deb wanted to make sure her family portraits reflected the place her family loves the most-- down at their family's beach house in Narragansett. We met on a *bright* sunny day and had some more traditional photos done before everyone jumped in the water and splashed away. So. much. fun!!!! The portraits of them running in the water are my faves. I love them so much, I considered having as a canvas in my own house :)
The G Family- Cranston, RI Family Portraits
/I love this family! I have worked with Lisa for a few years (and we all grew up in Cranston just a few minutes from each other). Lisa told me everyone was going to be together for a short time in July. Her brother lives in Germany so we were going to do our best to get a variety of family photos while they were all together! Here's just a few.
The L Family-- RI Beach Portrait, RI Family Portraits
/We had to postpone this session back in April when the little guy was under the weather but I think that it worked out for the best. We got a great night and perfect weather at Goddard Park. 
Autumn Mini Sessions- RI Mini Sessions, RI Fall Mini Sessions, RI Fall Portrait Sessions
/Only one spot left!!!
The E Family-Cranston, RI Family Photography, RI Family Photographer
/Here's one more family from my Cranston summer mini sessions! Pasco is a model in the making! He had us in stitches!
Leah- Cranston, RI Portrait Photography, Rhode Island Family Photos
/My summer mini sessions were a success! I was able to capture quite a few cuties on two beautiful June days. I'm so excited to share these photos of Leah. She is three and a dream to photograph! Love that hair bow too!
To All the Dads- Cranston, RI Portraits, Cranston Photography
/Jon is my son's namesake (his last name is my son's first name). Although he is my husband's second cousin, the two of them are like brothers. Jon was up from Virginia for a visit and asked if they could come by for an updated family portrait. Dads booking portraits = the best. He adores his three kids and there were plenty of great outtakes from the session (bunny ears for days…)
Baby E- Johnston, RI Portrait Photography
/Baby E gave us a run for our money! She was fast asleep when I arrived and we did maybe one shot and BAM! She was wide awake. I think she was wondering what this large black lens was doing. Her little blue eyes were focused on me for about two hours. We finally got her to sleep and then she was a dream to pose. After I left, her mom texted me that she slept for hours! That's always the way! :)
The C Family- Rhode Island Family Photographer, RI Family Portraits
/Melissa's family is soooo sweet. The girls are funny, spunky and full of energy. We did Elsa twirls, ran around, posing each way Gabriella suggested ("I've got an idea…") and tried our best to get a pony tail in the air shot (success)! I think this is the 4th time we've worked together, so it really just brings to mind how much I like seeing families year after year. I watch the kids grow and keep up with genuinely nice people.
