Little A Turns Two {Rhode Island Children's Photographer}

This sweet little munchkin's mum contacted me to visit with little A as part of the celebration of this handsome little guy's second birthday, Mum also wanted some updated photos for A's modeling portfolio.  It was quite the celebration with family and friends and the cake, wow.  I'll get to the cake in a little while...

 

It was pretty hard to pick a couple of images to feature on my blog since little A was so photogenic, smiling and flashing those big brown eyes.  This session was also fun because there were several outfit changes, a bubble machine and much frolicking in the bubbles produced by said bubble machine!




This was potentialy the coolest looking cake I've seen (and I did work in a cake store in Montreal in my former life, so I've been around some pretty spectacular cakes).  It was created by Shermy's Cakery of Warwick. I didn't have a chance to accept the piece that was kindly offered, but the aroma was deeeelish.  Mum had the cake made based on a Russian cartoon that little A is fond of.

Happy Birthday A!

Worth It {Rhode Island Baby Photographer}

As a new-newborn, my own Baby W was only sleepy for about five days.  He was always so awake, alert, and hungry, and crying...oh, the crying.  I was in a fog, disoriented from the lack of sleep.  "Sleep when the baby sleeps" they say, but I just so wanted to cuddle and look at him, so much for that.  I missed out on getting photos of my sleepy newborn. 

Well, slow and steady wins the race.  All the ingredients were coming together nicely during a family trip to Orlando:  Baby is exhausted from travel, the excitement of seeing all the sites, and the humidity, freedom for me of all of the travails that I squeeze in during Baby W's naps, after all it is vacation. 

Enjoy photography of my dreamy...practically-a-toddler, eleven month old baby.  I think it was well worth the wait.   

Enjoy today.  A

Desiree and Kyle Are Married-A Bridesmaid's Point of View

This past weekend two very dear friends of ours were married.  As Desiree and Kyle exchanged their vows and revelled in the celebration that followed, I had the privilege to serve as Desiree's bridesmaid (squeal) and my husband was a groomsman. 

I happily snapped away between mimosas, hair and makeup, until the arrival of Desiree's photographer.  Here are some of my favorite images from the rehearsal and the preparations for the big day.

 

 

 

Thanks for dropping in,  Andrea

Rachele+Scott

"There is no feeling more comforting and consoling than knowing that you are right next to the one you love"-unknown.

Scott and Rachele were my first friends after moving to Rhode Island, and our only wedding guests as husby and I were married on a Wednesday afternoon in January after planning our ceremony for about 40 minutes on the previous Monday.  They met us at our apartment and watched on from the sofa as I felt like I was about to jump over the edge of a cliff.  Our wedding preparations, involved me searching high and low for one missing boot, while I was already wearing the other, and was a ball of nerves.

Here's to having somebody who will help you find your missing boot-Andrea

Wordless Wednesday: Pictured {Bathtime}

Linking up with some fantastic blogs,

Baby, It's Spring Time.

The weather in the Ocean State was out of this world last week, particularly since the harsh winters I've always experienced in my former life as a Montrealer are still fresh in my mind.  I. have. experienced. the. depths.

What a pleasure it was to bring Baby W out into the yard in a short sleeved shirt of all things to capture him getting aquainted with the pleasures of dried grass and soak up the rays on an unseasonably warm March evening.

  



Cheers, A

Eat with Your Hands

Meet Baby W, his sweet face will be gracing the pages of this blog often as he is my son, muse and generally wonderful, not that I'm biased.

Baby W exercises his new found dexterity by putting everything in his mouth.  Luckily, that includes food sometimes. 

Linking up with The Paper Mama Photo Challenge for the first time ever, this weeks theme is "hands".

Cheers!
