Big Sis and Little Brother Newborn Session at the Studio – RI Newborn Photography

Posted on January 21, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

There is something about the winter when it comes to this family. Big sister, Mackenzie, was born pretty much in a blizzard. Her little brother arrived a week before Christmas. Seeing that these babies like to make a grand entrance in the winter it seemed fitting to use my mini shoot set one last time for these guys. It was the perfect way to say good bye to the set. These guys aren’t just any old clients. Baby Grayson is actually the newest member of my family! I was so excited to meet him! It was truly an honor to take his newborn pics for Mom and Dad as I did for Kenzie three years ago. Maybe I’m biased, but Grayson is super adorable! I think it’s a more of a fact than an opinion. Welcome to the family, Grayson!!

Baby Girl Newborn Session – RI Newborn Photography

Posted on January 13, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

Let’s go back a couple of weeks to Christmas time! The plan was that this little lady was going to be arriving some time after Christmas. Mom and Dad had their Christmas cards printed with photos of their two boys, Mommy’s belly along with a holiday greeting that included info about a little baby girl who would be arriving soon. Well, Samantha must have caught wind of this and decided to put a wrench in that plan. She made her debut before the cards went out so Mom decided to include a “Christmas Card Addendum” if you will with the photos we took. Samantha’s little brothers were on hand for the session. They were adorable with their sister. From the looks of it she is going to have two protective older brothers to deal with.

Newborn Portrait Session – RI Newborn Photography

Posted on December 7, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

A little over a month ago I had the pleasure of doing a portrait for this family. Since then things have changed a lot! They welcomed their new daughter, Elle, to the family! She is a month old and as cute as a button. We took lots of photos and when it was time to eat I hung out with her big brother in his room taking even more photos. Ryan is an active little guy (what two year old isn’t) so I was very happy to get photos of him and his new sister. Congrats to the family and have a wonderful holiday season with your new addition!

Family Portrait at Colt State Park in Bristol – RI Family Photography

Posted on November 18, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

I had the pleasure of meeting this family a couple of years ago at one of my mini shoots. These kids were adorable back then and they are even cuter now. I remember loving Mac’s hair at the mini. I was so happy that he was still rockin’ the do. I am a sucker for little boys with longer styled hair. It’s always the cutest. We had a great time taking photos at Colt State Park. Avery was the queen the poses. If her clothes came in my size I would have asked her where she bought them and gone to get the same outfit for myself. Autumn leaves, great light and great people can only equal a successful family portrait session.

Brother and Sister Fall Portrait in Roger Williams Park

Posted on September 27, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

I was definitely looking forward to doing this portrait because I knew in advance how cute these kids are! My daughter plays with these guys so I’ve been admiring their little faces for a while now. Mom warned me that it was going to be tough getting a genuine smile from Liam, but thankfully we were able to get some out of him. His sister on the other hand was ready with a smile at the drop of a hat. Not only did they show me their smiles, but I also got to see their mad faces (not featured on the blog today. sorry). I showed some of these to my daughter and she approved. My little girl always tells me when she doesn’t like my photos so I must have done a good job.
