Family Portrait in Roger Williams Park – RI Family Photographer

Posted on November 26, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

I love these photos because I love this family! Ada is my kids’ bud. There was a time when all my son said was “Ada hit me” (even though she didn’t). There was also a time when Ada always talking about the time my son, Max, gave her way too aggressive of a hug (which did happen). Mandy is an amazingly talented graphic designer. She does all the design work for my wedding photography business called M.Studios and does amazing letterpress wedding invitations and birth announcments. Check out her web site or etsy shop! I also can’t wait to share the new logo she did for me that has inspired a whole new look for Melissa Lacouture Photography!

Colt State Park Family Portrait – RI Family Photography

Posted on November 19, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

I’ve had the absolute pleasure of photographing this little lady a couple of times now. Every time she has come to do photos she has brought her little dolly, Sasha. It makes sense that Sasha was included in all the family photos. At this point she is just that – one of the family. It’s nice when people decide to include personal elements like this in the photos session. So we had two parents, two dogs, one toddler and a doll. Somehow it all worked out and we got photos of everyone! It was that crazy Sasha who wouldn’t sit still for most of the photos. Such a diva.

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.

Little Ladies at Roger Williams Park – RI Family Photography

Posted on November 14, 2013 by Melissa Lacouture

When I started doing photos for this family there were only two girls. Magically a third one appeared (you can ask your Mommy and Daddy how that happens) and my job got harder! These girls are the sweetest things. They are active little ladies for sure. Always jumping and running around. Before we started I was thinking of all the things I could do to make them all sit and actually look at me at the same moment. Obviously time goes by and the girls were bigger than last year (duh). Maybe they are more mature, maybe the stars were aligned for perfect photos. Whatever it was the girls were amazing! We got lots of great photos. Everyone looked at the camera… Mission accomplished!

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.
