RI Photographer | Winter in Wickford, RI

New Englanders should be used to weather changes. Most of us would rather have a sunny, warm day nice enough for venturing outdoors. As I sit here thinking about those kinds of days, I am reminded that we are in the midst of another polar vortex. Yes…arctic temps for days in a row. I decided to think back to last winter, and pull up some images taken after the Blizzard Nemo. All of the images below were taken in the quaint village of Wickford, RI. My heart has a special place there…. Brrr is was cold then! Gray and stormy……..however did make for some peaceful images. One of my favorite spots, the Town Beach, has three trees that are always fun to see in each season.

RI Family Portrait Photographer | Kings Lake Naples, Florida

How lucky was I to be able to travel to Naples, Florida for the Christmas holiday! Not only was I able to photograph this wonderful family, but I was also very happy to be a part of their family for 10 days. It was the first time the four of them had all been together in quite a while, so what better time to take a family portrait? (of course I had the plan in my head and they were NOT going to get out of it! :)

I couldn’t ask for better smiles…

DFamily

This beautiful couple will be married for 50 years this coming February! Can you believe? I would say they don’t even look 50!

Mom and Dad

Can you tell which sibling is the clown? (hint….the one sitting down!)

There is nothing as sweet as a mom with her two baby boys…..did I say baby? Well, there is lots of love here….eek!……The setting was on the Lake right behind their property. We were lucky to catch the last of the sunset. It was a tough time rearranging a day when everyone was around during the daylight hours!

How about the handsome men of the family……I must say, I got to hang out with two of them at the beach and pool! Sorry ladies, part of the perks!

This one brought tears to my eyes! Mom was overly joyed to have me “force” them into a family photo shoot, as her Christmas gift! It was worth lugging an extra 50lbs of equipment on the plane! (luckily I had help in the lugging department!)

 Before  ending this fun shoot…….the boys put on their best “We are so cool” looks……

…..and more…..(I think they were trying to be Crockett and Tubbs, however I think it was more like Abbott and Costello…or Felix and Oscar………….maybe Bert and Ernie!)

the boys

We couldn’t leave without a visit from the momma duck and her babies!

RI Wedding Photographer | Angel and James: married in Coventry, RI

It was a rainy day over the Memorial Day weekend, but that didn’t stop these two from making the best of it. The wedding took place at a family home. It was a small, but a lovely and intimate, ceremony filled with lots of love.

The rain decided to hold off at times so we could sneak in a few outdoor shots.

The bride changed shoes to handle the muddy ground.

Love the formal dress and combat boot combo! The groom is sporting his shiny new wedding band!

The trees overhead kept the rain to a minimum.

The groom’s brother was recently married, so we couldn’t resist a few shots of them.

Let’s see who gets pushed into the water first!

 How many couples have a wedding photograph with a toilet? :)

It was a fun way to end the day.
