From the lake house, with love ~ Rhode Island Family Photographer

On this particular day here in Rhode Island,

I was lucky to be hired by one of the sweetest families I have ever worked with!

One fun fact is that we had our pre-session phone consultation

while they were vacationing in Turkey! ~Yes, the country! :)

We hadn’t decided on a location yet,

and I always try to customize the session with a location that represents the family.

D. the mom, happened to casually mention they had lake front property,

You can’t get any more personalized than a session at your home,

so while they were away and I was location scouting, I drove by their home on the lake.

It was gorgeous to say the least!

D. was surprised at the simplicity of me coming to them,

and I was thrilled to be able to shoot at a new, gorgeous location!

Here are a few of my favs from their session!

Oh, and can I just say, their family is just a wee bit gorgeous too!


So much fun hiking and playing by the water at this lovely lake home!
By the way, their kids were so sweet and adorable!
We were instant friends.
The kids didn’t want me to go home!
They begged me to go see their rooms at the end of the session- it was so sweet.
Once I was finished processing their photos and it came down to
the photo viewing, I again offered to come to their home.
D. the mom said it would be best to come once the kids were in bed
becuase she was afraid that they wouldn’t want to sleep!
I actually had to sneak in and wisper so they wouldn’t hear my voice.
To say I was flattered is an understatement- too cute!
I’ll end this post with one of my favs…
Thanks so much for visiting!
