Narragansett Family Portait – Point Judith Photographer

I always look forward to my yearly Narragansett portrait session with these guys! In my years of photographing this family there are a few things I’ve come to expect when working with them, and let me tell you, they never disappoint. Every year they bring an fun energy that reminds me why I love this job so much. It’s become a bit of a tradition for the kids to end up soaked and laughing by the end of our session. Honestly, it’s one of my favorite parts! Watching their joy as they splash around makes it easy to capture the perfect snaps.

These moments are what make Narragansett family portrait sessions so special. It’s not just about getting that perfect shot; it’s about preserving the personality and heart of a family. This year’s session was no exception, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity to document their lives once again.

As a photographer, it’s always rewarding to work with families who trust you year after year to document their memories. For this family, it’s been such a privilege to watch their journey unfold. To think it all started with their oldest son’s newborn session!

If you’re looking for a Narragansett family photographer who understands the beauty of capturing authentic moments, I’d love to hear from you. Whether your family loves the beach, the park, or anywhere else in Rhode Island, let’s work together to create timeless memories. And if your kids love the water as much as these kids do, you’ll have no better excuse to dive in and make the most of your session!

Over a decade of Family Sessions in Providence – RI Family Photographer

I’ve had the privilege of documenting this family’s story for almost 15 years! When I think about the happiness that being a photographer brings, this family always comes to mind. Every other year or so, we meet in the same spot in Providence. It’s the very location where I did Mom and Dad’s engagement session years ago, and now, it’s the backdrop for their growing family.

This spot isn’t just a location; it’s a character in the story. It’s where the love began! There is something about returning to the same place and recreating so many of the same poses – even some from the engagement session. Over the years, I’ve watched this family grow from two people in love to group filled with movie quotes and lots of laughs.

I feel so honored to have been part of this family’s life for all these years! It’s a reminder of why I do what I do. Thank you to this incredible family for trusting me year after year and for letting me be part of your story. Can’t wait to see you all in September so you can add more photos to the “Melissa wall”!

Bonnet Shores Beach Portrait in Narragansett, RI – RI Family Photograher

Fall at Bonnet Shores in Narragansett, RI is truly something special! People always think of summer for beach sessions but don’t sleep on autumn by the water! The crisp ocean breeze, the golden hues of the dunes, and the soft sunlight create a perfect backdrop for capturing beautiful moments. I also love photographing a family in a place they love! Bonnet Shores is near and dear to this family. It was their first session together and I was honored to be the one who was able to capture these moments during their first year as a family of three!

Fall Mini Sessions in Roger Williams Park – RI Outdoor Mini Sessions

One of my favorite times of the year is here – Mini session season! If you’ve been following me you’ve probably heard me say it a million times but I truly love these sessions. It’s such fun to reconnect with so many familiar faces each year. Some families have been with me since I started 14 years ago! Watching these kids grow up, capturing new milestones, and freezing these moments in time makes my job that much more rewarding.

For those who haven’t done a mini session before they’re essentially a full portrait session but with a time limit. Every time I sit down to edit these photos I think how much of a deal these sessions really are. If you don’t believe me just take a look at this session from last year!

This year I’m offering mini sessions at Roger Williams Park. The park is massive with so many options for gorgeous backdrops. I can’t wait to see my returning families and meet new ones too!

If you’re thinking about booking, don’t wait too long! These mini sessions fill up fast, and I don’t want you to miss out on what could be your new favorite family tradition.
