Rhode Island Engagement portrait session. K and G's engagement session at Rodger Williams Park. RI and Massachusetts engagement photographer

Here is the last preview of the day and then I am off to load up galleries. This couple came down from Worcester (my old stomping grounds) and met me at the park for a sunset engagement session. Unfortunately, there wasn't much of a sunset. We also worked around enormous flocks of geese, a turkey vulture, a few undesirable vehicles, a closed carousel, a broken arm and me losing my keys. Luckily K and G were so easy to photograph and totally went with the flow. I guess that is what being in love is all about. Nothing else matters! They were also gorgeous which never hurts a portrait! And yes, all of those episodes of America's Next Top Model did pay off ;0) I was so happy to see all of the great shots we ended up with. Enjoy your preview. Much more to come :0)

The Reviews Are In! Rhode Island and Massachusetts portrait photographer Heidi Hope Photography

I'm working on a new "Raves" section for my site and the reviews are making their way to my inbox. Thank you everyone for all of your kind words! They have really touched my heart and are definitely getting me through these last few crazy weeks of summer.

Here are a few in so far!

"Heidi took our maternity and newborn photos, and we couldn’t be more thrilled. Not only were our pictures beautiful and memories we’ll now have forever, but it was such a pleasure working with her and a treat to have her shoot at our house. As the parents of a 4-day-old and feeling overwhelmed, Heidi helped us relax and have a fun afternoon in the comfort of our home; I don’t think we could have had such a great time with any other photographer, and I know a studio would have been so impersonal. We especially have to thank her for being so patient and fun despite our little one being so uncooperative! Besides the amazing and creative photographs she took, she also completely designed our birth announcements which turned out to be beautiful pieces of art and exceeded our expectations. Of course we hope to work with Heidi again, and I will definitely recommend her to all of our friends. Thanks, Heidi!"

"My experience with Heidi Hope Photography was absolutely wonderful. Heidi is very personal yet professional. Heidi takes the time to get to know her clients in order to give them the best photo session possible! Heidi gets amazing shots! I will definitely be using Heidi Hope Photography again!!!"

"Heidi is an amazing photographer!!! The package I purchased will allow three sets of photo sessions. I've only done the first one, but so far I am ecstatic over her work. Heidi's shots are non-traditional which I loved! The pictures were incredible. I was so pleased with everything about them. Heidi is also open to your ideas which I loved. I was able to have her get some shots that I had envisioned. She was also fantastic with my daughter. She has a great deal of patience and made the session a lot of fun for all of us. I am really looking forward to working with her over the next year."

"We use to dread taking our daughter to get her pictures taken because all she did was cry. So, for her 15 month pictures we decided to use Heidi Hope Photography. Our daughter played and ran and smelled the flowers. Heidi captured every priceless moment. The result was the most amazing pictures that we can now cherish for a lifetime. Heidi is amazing with kids, patient and her attention to detail is incredible. You can actually see our daughters personality in the portraits. We can't wait to work with Heidi again in the future."

"Heidi Hope Photography is absolutely AMAZING! The entire atmosphere of the day was fun & carefree. My kids played and interacted with each other and Heidi captured every adorable moment from start to finish. Her attention to detail and ability to find that un-scripted shot is incredible. She truly captured our childrens' personalities. It was an amazing experience that I will treasure always!"

Engagement portraits on Scarborough beach Rhode Island. Rhode Island engagement photographer Heidi Hope Photography

I just love photographing people who are in love.  And static subjects?  Subjects who not only stay in one spot, but can also heed instructions?!?!  Last night's engagement shoot was so much fun.  As you all know, I am totally baby crazy, but once in a while it is so refreshing to shoot adults.  It allows me to be so much more creative with my images.  It brings me back to my fine art roots as I feel like I am composing (or at least have time to compose) a painting of sorts.  I suppose that is what I would most like my photographs to be; paintings created with light.  This is one huge preview and sure to be one huge gallery.  Thanks for being so fun to work with... enjoy your preview!
