Mr. + Mrs. LaPierre

On January 16th I got a phone call from Bethany just seeing how things have been with me and checkin in on Jones. For those of you who dont know Jones, she's Rye's lil sister + one of my Bffs. Now Bethany never calls me this late so I was a like, "Is everything ok? You never call this late". I could tell in her voice that something was up. With all excitement in her voice she shouts with joy, "We just got MARRIED!!!" "Shut up!Really?"-I totally wasn't expecting this at all to come from Bethany. Actually I don't think that anyone was expecting this to happen!! Bethany + Rye headed off to Vegas and had a intimate ceremony at the Chapel!! They recently filled me in on some stories of some stranger zipping up the back of her dress, wish I was there to capture that. But instead I got to capture some After The Wedding images this past week. We headed down to Harkness Park and got some amazing shots!! It was perfect lighting, the flowers in the garden were in full bloom and Rye was lovin strutting his stuff around the park.

Here are some of my favs from the session!

Anna Milot Design

I recently have contacted a good friend of mine who is a graphic designer, Anna Milot. Most of you might already know her but I wanted to brag about her for a moment! As my business is growing I need some help with designing albums, cards announcements etc., so I contacted Anna and asked her if she was interested in working on some projects for me. She was thrilled that I asked her!!! As Anna puts it she is a graphic designer/ marketing coordinator but day and by night a invitation/ paperie designer!! Anna is a incredible designer + a hard worker!!
With a little push I got Anna to start a blog while soon to follow a website! Please take moment to check out her blog and see some of her work she recently has been working on. It feels so good when you can help someone in the direction that they want to go in. Some people are so scared to take chances now a days, but if there is something that your passionate about go for it baby! You have nothing to lose!!
Looking forward to working with Anna on some new and upcoming products that I'm taking on!!
So cool to see what she does with my work!!!
Thanks Anna and you ROCK girl!!! Anna Milot Design
Here are some pieces she did for me!!

Thank you card for my Block Island wedding

The Rizers

So FINALLY someone from my family actually booked me for a lifestyle session. Its funny because I'm always photographing family events and doing lil portraits here and there for the family but this time was special because I got to do these portraits of my cousins. The Rizers + I headed down to Watch Hill in RI to do their session. Miss Hanna Montana was amazing as always. Can't believe how tall + beautiful Hannah is getting. Crazy how time flies by. She's already going to school this year. Hannah was having a blast on the beach. Racing Ma + Dad , finding really cool shells and Baby Jumper a hermit crab. We had fun walking around the shore line and it was perfect lighting that day! So I was luvin that.

So here are some of my steller shots!!

Ethan

Stopped over Jenn's house on Friday to meet Baby Ethan. He was all refreshed after waking up from his nap + ready to play outside with me!! Ethan was soo fun to work with. We first started out in the yard to play in the grass. Its soo funny to see a child's reaction to different textures. Ethan didn't know what to do once we put him down in the grass. Then later on he was rolling around in it + wouldn't stop laughing. Luv it!!

Here are my favs for our session!

Kaia has arrived!!

We all remember the maternity session I did with Sean + Julie!! Well, Baby Kaia has arrived. I went over on Friday and did some newborn portraits of Kaia Sean Trainor!!
I really enjoyed doing this session with the Trainor's. Kaia is such a lil peanut. When I arrived she was all curled up on Julies lap soo peaceful sleeping and dreaming of lunch time. lol
The Trainor's are going to sign up for the "A year in the Life Of...." Program, which is a series of sessions throughout the first year of your child. I am looking forward to capturing Baby Kaia's first year!
Here are some of my favs from the session!
