Caleb and Family Portrait in MA – MA Family Portrait

Posted on November 7, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

I’m pretty sure that after we did this portrait the family was left wondering “did we even get one nice photo?” Caleb was a wiggly and very busy toddler. Most of them are! Despite the “busy-ness” I was able to get some great photos! Thankfully I am no stranger to this family. By now they trust that I will get good photos. I’ve had the pleasure of doing photos for them since their engagement session! I always look forward to seeing them and I’m so happy that I have the chance to document their growing family.

Family Portrait at Roger Williams Park – RI Family Portrait Photography

Posted on October 15, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

Way back when I did my first mini sessions in this very same spot I met this family for the first time. Big Brother was only a less than a year old. He had the most gorgeous blue eyes I’ve every seen! Fast forward and here they are again. This time there is another beautiful baby boy who also was lucky enough to get the same color eyes. I love seeing families grow and having the opportunity to capture it for them is an honor.

Sophie’s First Birthday Cake Smash Portrait in Roger Williams Park

Posted on September 2, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

Lots of babies do cake smash portrait sessions, but Sophie had an extra special one. All of her grandparents were in town so her Moms included them in the session. They got to pose for photos and witness the messy finale first hand! Thankfully Sophie was pretty careful with her cake so I was able to get lots of great photos of her. As always Lauren from Cake-tique made us the big cupcake. Because Sophie was pretty neat about her smashing the cake was in good enough condition to bring home. It was a win, win!

Family Portrait in Salem, MA – MA Baby Photography

Posted on August 17, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

For this family portrait I drove all the way up to Salem. I hadn’t been to Salem since I was a kid. There were so many historic houses, a beautiful waterfront, and lots of Halloween stores. The Halloween thing really confused me at first then I remembered… It’s Salem, MA! In my defense we did meet early in the morning. I sometimes need help waking up. Thankfully Everett and his parents were up and looking awesome! We were able to get in some smiles and even a couple of different locations before nap time. Everett was just adorable. His smile is a little too much cuteness for me to handle. He did a great job posing when he was all done pointing at everything. I couldn’t have asked for a better subject.

Family of Five Sunflower Portrait in CT

Posted on August 10, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

Five children in one photo? Five kids to make look at the camera all at the same time? Time for the photographer to have a nervous breakdown? Not at all. I have taken pictures of these five kids before and I have to say it’s easier than some families of one! Not only do they listen and look at the camera, but they also take turns carrying my backpak of equipment! Mom messaged me a year ago about doing this portrait session. The weather and crazy schedules tried to stop us, but we managed to get in these photos one Saturday morning. So happy we did!!
