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!

Coggeshall Farm Family Portrait in Bristol – RI Family Portrait Photography

Posted on November 6, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

Fall is one of the best times of the year for me because I get to see so many of my favorite clients. Finley and her family are definitely on that list! This is our third year in a row taking photos at Coggeshall Farm in Bristol, RI. Although Finley has changed so much in that time some things have not. Every year Finley brings her favorite doll. This year Sasha was replaced by her Cabbage Patch Kid, Claudine. Sorry, Sasha! Finley also brings some other friends – her puppies! That means one toddler, one doll and two dogs plus Mommy and Daddy. Thankfully Mom, Dad and Claudine will happily sit and smile for photos while I try to get everyone else to look at the camera! All in a day’s work!

Providence Portrait Session with Liam and Silvie – RI Children Portraits

Posted on November 3, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

I had the pleasure of doing these little cutie pies’ photos in Providence a couple of weeks back. This is the second year in a row that I had the opportunity to take portraits of them. They have gotten cuter if that’s possible. Liam’s main objective was to take silly pictures while Silvie was just there to look cute. I think we had success on both fronts. On a side note these kids happen to belong to my husband’s boss so I hope I did a good job! Enjoy!

Family Portrait in Providence – RI Portrait Photography

Fall is the time that I do lots of family portraits. The light and the colors are some of the best stuff of the year. This family always takes advantage of that gorgeousness every autumn. Not that they need any help because this is one gorgeous family! They would look great in front of a dumpster. I met everyone when big brother was about 6 months old. That was four years ago and one less family member. Now little brother is on the scene and trying to steal the show. I don’t think my peek-a-boo-ing from behind the camera ever yielded so many smiles!

Four Year Old Portrait Session – RI Portrait Photography

Posted on October 21, 2014 by Melissa Lacouture

Ryan’s parents have brought him in for many mini sessions but this is the first time I was able to do a real deal portrait session of him. I was excited! Mini sessions can be a blur. I see a lot of kids and not for too much time, but I always remembered Ryan. He is just adorable! I love his long hair and his parents always have him in great clothes. It’s also always stuck in my head that it can take a minute for Ryan to warm up to the camera. That was not the case now that he is four years old! Ryan was chatting with me non stop and just being so darn cute! I got great, great pics of this little guy!
