Second Year Portrait with Brooklyn – RI Child Photography

Posted on August 13, 2015 by Melissa Lacouture

I met Brooklyn last year at War Memorial Park, a place that has now become one of my favorite spots for photos! This year I had the pleasure of visiting Brook at her house! Lucky girl lives right next door to a horse barn! She is two and a half and already taking horse riding lessons. Since she loves her horsey neighbors mom and dad thought it would be nice to incorporate them into the session! Brooklyn has changed so much in the past year but one thing has stayed the same… her insane cuteness! She is a doll!! So happy that these guys found me and continue to use me to document the family!

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

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!
