Providence Portrait Session – RI Portrait Photography

Posted on May 15, 2015 by Melissa Lacouture

I met this family a year ago in Bristol for a family portrait session. Last year baby brother was just a little peanut who didn’t like to stand on grass. Now I could hardly catch him! We walked around the east side of Providence taking advantage of all the pretty old houses and springtime blossoms. This seemed like more of a playdate for the kids than a portrait session. They ran around, did so much jumping and made friends with a neighborhood cat! Thank goodness for snacks! It was the only way they would take a break and sit! When in doubt bust out the goldfish!

Sister Portrait at the Studio

Posted on May 6, 2015 by Melissa Lacouture

I had the pleasure of photographing this family when there was only one little girl. Fast forward two years and they’ve added in one more little cutie! Both of these little ladies have birthday’s close to one another so we were able to do the girl’s birthday portraits in one session. We listened to some T. Swift, read a book, and explored my building all while taking photos! The girls did such a good job that they got themselves a visit to a playground! Bribery works, people!

Newborn Portrait Session – RI Newborn Photography

Posted on April 29, 2015 by Melissa Lacouture

Two years ago I met this beautiful family when their second daughter was born. Recently I received an email from Mom saying that they were having a third child. This time it’s was going to be a little boy! Finally Dad has another man in the house! I showed up and found his two sisters dressed to the nines in their adorable dresses. We took some photos outside while Mommy got the little guy all settled. Tony was such a perfect little model! He rocked his little giraffe outfit!

Congrats to this wonderful family!

Cake Smash with Kellen – RI Cake Smash Portrait

Posted on March 6, 2015 by Melissa Lacouture

Another one of my favorite families here! I’ve taken some of my best photos of these boys. They are just so cute and lovable together. It really makes my job easy. When I first met this family they only had two little guys. The youngest brother, Kellen, turned a year old this past month. He had a winter themed birthday party so Mom had great decorations that we reused for the cake smash. Win! As always our adorable cake was provided by Lauren at Cake-tique!

Matthew’s Second Year Portrait – RI Portrait Photography

Posted on February 10, 2015 by Melissa Lacouture

I met Matthew and his family last year when they came in to do a cake smash session for his first birthday. Matthew was just a little peanut! Fast forward one year and here we are for his second birthday portrait! We did not have a cake this time. Just one lovable little toddler! Matthew has gained some agility and speed since our last session. This boy was all over the place! Thankfully we took some breaks in his explorations so we could get some cute pics of him!
