First Birthday Portrait – RI Baby Photography

Posted on June 27, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

First Birthday’s might be the most special birthdays. Maybe not so much for the birthday girl or boy, but definitely for the parents. Brooklyn was 9 weeks premature. She had to stay at the hospital for over 2 months before she could be home with her family. Mom and Dad wanted these photos taken to not only capture this moment in her life, but to celebrate their healthy baby’s first year! Brooklyn certainly is healthy! She was crawling faster than I could take photos of her laughing the entire time. Hope you had a great birthday, Brooklyn! There will be many, many more where that came from!

Family Portrait in Roger Williams Park – RI Portrait Photography

Posted on June 22, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

Roger Williams Park is one of my favorite places to do a portrait session. The park has so many beautiful places for photos. I met this family at one of my most frequented spots in the park. They had their two daughters with then in adorable matching dresses! One baby couldn’t move, but the other made up for that. I certainly got my work out in this session, but no child has ever really made my job “easy”. When you are a toddler you have lots of things you want to do. I’m just there to go with the flow and get some photos of it happening.

Blithewold Gardens Family Portrait – RI Portrait Photography

Posted on June 13, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

I had the pleasure of second shooting for Snap! Photography at Jessica and Jenson’s wedding at Blithewold some years ago. I have always remembered their wedding mainly because they were such a pleasure to be around all day! Now here we are back to the place that started their journey as a family, but this time they have a new member! Little baby H crashed the party this time. She was quite the explorer while we taking photos. Thankfully she took a couple of breaks here and there to stop for photos. All and all it was a nice time revisiting old memories while making some new ones as well!

It’s so nice to see families grow. It’s one of the best parts of my job. I’ve been doing Hannah’s photos since she was a year old. Now she has a little brother! He was definitely full of smiles and ready for his close ups! I’m sure Mom and Dad will be happy with his first professional photo shoot!! Adorable!!
