Easter 2010. A few pics from home!

I don't believe I've brought my camera home since January. So much for my resolution! I enjoyed a Sunday off this week and spent the day with S and G gardening and painting eggs for Easter. G has not been liking the camera lately, but today she was a total ham! At 1 1/2 years old, she sang the whole alphabet on camera and actually flashed me a few smiles while I was documenting her work. And hard at work she was! This girl could color for hours. Here are some of my favorites from our Easter egg painting.

Newborn Twins. Rhode Island and Massachusetts newborn baby photographer creates studio newborn portraits for twin girls.

I was so excited to share this preview with you. Twin girls E and S were so much fun to work with yesterday. They were so easy, I didn't even need my assistant! Mom and dad got little sleep the night before, but I bet they'll think it was worth it once they see their sleepy sweethearts in these photos. The garden was pink this week which was perfect for them. The one of them in the basket might be one of my favorite pictures of all time! Enjoy your preview mom and dad. Lots of cuteness to come!

Baby Girl A, 5 months old. New england baby photographer creates natural light studio baby portraits.

This little cutie pie came to visit the studio and I didn't want her to leave. She was so sweet and happy. I just love this age! Mom brought lots of props for me to play with. The purple blanket was made by A's grandmother and the little sailor suit is for dad who is a sailor. Thanks for coming to visit yesterday mom. I loved meeting you and A!

Spring babies! Rhode Island and Massachusetts newborn baby photographer creates natural light newborn portraits in warwick ri portrait studio

The garden is in full bloom! This week it is pink tulips and pussy willows. What am I doing with all of these flowers you ask? Well, lets just say that next spring, my home will be overtaken by tulips. This little girl was a fiesty one. Only 8 days old, but born 5 days late, this little peanut gave me a run for my money. She only slept for two minute intervals and I don't believe I've ever witnessed a newborn eat more at a session! Luckily, she slept long enough for me to catch some adorable shots. I've gotten good at working fast with the not-so-sleepy bunch. That is when the studio comes in handy because everything is right at our fingertips when baby finally decides to doze. Enjoy your preview mom and dad. I loved meeting you!

D's First Birthday! Rhode Island and Massachusetts baby photographer creates baby's first birthday, one year old portraits.

You may remember this little man from last April when I went to visit his family. I can't believe it has already been a year! This time the family came to visit me and Baby D celebrated his first birthday in style with a cake smash. I loved seeing you all again and can't wait to show you your whole gallery!

Baby girl A and big brother! Rhode Island and Massachusetts on location newborn portrait photographer creates in home newborn portraits in Boston Ma

I haven't traveled to a home for newborn portraits in some time and it was so refreshing to get out of the studio and visit this family last week! They had a beautiful nursery with fabulous light, so we set up the whole session right there. Big brother L was so helpful and I just melt over the shots of him and his baby sister. Normally I supply the props, but mom was one step ahead of me and had so many adorable hats and pettiskirts for me to play with when I arrived! It was so much fun to meet you all, enjoy your preview!

Baby Girl N, a St Patrick's Day shoot! Rhode Island and Massachusetts newborn photographer creates natural light studio newborn baby portraits.

This sweet baby girl and her parents came to celebrate St Patrick's Day with us last week at the studio. I was able to get some more adorable garden shots before leaving the green and yellow behind. What color should I plant this week??? Baby N was nice and sleepy for us to play. She was waking up by the shots in the yellow pot, but we managed some with her eyes closed! Enjoy your preview mom and dad. Can't wait to show you the rest.

Little flower. Baby M and big sister S. Rhode Island and Massachusetts newborn baby photographer creates easter spring sibling newborn portraits

I had so much fun with the family who came to visit the studio today that I couldn't wait to share their preview with you! Sweet baby M was nice and sleepy and her big sister S was a fabulous model and helper. Toddlers can be very unpredictable in their reactions to their new siblings and often the attention showered on a new baby during a newborn shoot can exaggerate this. At 2 1/2 years old, S was so sweet to her sister, so helpful around the studio, and a total ham for the camera. We did the whole shoot in just two hours! I just adore the portraits we got. Here is a little sneak peak:

Baby J 6 months old. Rhode Island and Massachusetts baby portrait photographer creates 6 month old baby portraits in Warwick RI studio

This little man was a tough nut to crack! He was very interested in the camera, so he made mom and I work very hard to get a smile. But, smile he did! He's so handsome that it really didn't matter much anyways. He looked adorable no matter what he was doing. Enjoy your preview!

Little Lamb. Baby O's 6 month portraits. Rhode Island and Massachusetts photographer creates spring easter baby portraits.

I seriously wanted to share this ENTIRE session as a preview. I could barely contain myself when I was editing. I must have called Shaun over to the computer 10 times to say "Isn't this baby GORGEOUS!" And that was just for the first photo! Baby O was just as sweet as she was beautiful. I sure do love 6 month olds! Enjoy your preview mom and dad. I loved seeing you again and after you left Shaun said "We could have talked to them all day!"
