Amanda contacted me to photograph her family while they all gathered in the RI area for Thanksgiving.
Soon after booking, she let me know that there would be a surprise at the end of the shoot.
Her sister, Angie’s boyfriend, was going to propose!

We began with some simple family portraits,

But of course, no family session is complete without letting your inner child out!

At this point we were all getting close to the rendezvous point. As per usual, I was all excited and nervous knowing the great surprise that awaited Angie just around the bend.
We pretended we were heading further into the park to create more group shots, all the while Angie’s boyfriend, Michael, was hiding in the tall grass awaiting his moment.

This is where Michael popped out of the grass. I love how Angie’s expression changes!

At this point, Angie thought he was just there surprising her for Thanksgiving and to be involved in the portrait session.
Little does she know

But, wait, there’s more!!

I loved working with everyone and being there to document such a wonderful celebration!!

Congrats Angie and Michael!

I met with the Trudeaus at their home in Blackstone MA to photograph their newest addition. Wee Keegan was so camera aware, it was amazing. He made great eye contact through out the whole shoot, as well as offered some killer grins

Below are a handful of some of my favorites, enjoy!

The puppy wanted nothing to do with my camera at first. The click of the shutter freaked her out!

I met the Cushman family at their home last year to photograph their family and they welcomed me back this October to document the twins next adventures.
It was such a joy to see how much they’ve grown and how mobile they’ve become!

Here are a handful of some of my favorites from the session:

I love it when families come back to me for repeat portrait sessions. I adore seeing how the little ones have grown and are so full of energy and personality!
