Oh so entertaining in Southern RI

Severine won a standard portrait session at Doulas of Rhode Island's (DoRI) silent auction earlier this summer. I was excited to have the opportunity to get to know Severine as one of the founders of DoRI and a doula. Severine's husband is pretty talented too including his work with Rhythmic Journey. Their daughter, Anais, is entertaining as she races around mom and dad, wrestles with dad, and snuggles with mom.





Rob was also so very entertaining from humor to serious and everywhere in between.



It was a pleasure getting to know all three of you! Thanks again for spending a Saturday morning with me... before it got too too hot!

Enter... Senior Sarah

Joe invited Sarah to come and have her senior pictures done while he was having his done. Turned out Sarah is dating Jonah, Lisette's son. It's a small world, and all that. Sarah is adorable and was up for anything I suggested. She is actually an aspiring photographer an had done her research about what type of portraits she wanted. When I asked if she had any other ideas that we hadn't tried she said we covered them all. Loved being on the same page as her.







Thanks so much Sarah, for putting up with Joe;) and posing like a pro.

Group shoot morphs into...

a Portrait Party!
What's that, you say?
Well, it started with a conversation with my sister-in-law-class-of-2010. While up in Vermont (where said sil lives) during our recent trip I suggested she get a group together for a fun group shoot.
She thought it was a great idea.
Then I said- tell them to bring their bathing suits and we can have a fire, cook s'mores- all that.
Oh! And a "Fauxto Booth"... but more on that in a future blog post.
Thus the morphing into a portrait party.
Three girls arrived on time early so we started with some fun girl-only shots.



And the whole crowd...



One of the girls wanted to hold a flower. We did several fun shots with flowers and I think this might be my favorite...



Thank you,Chelsea, Kyrstyn, Debbie, Alana, Katie, Nick, and Chris! I loved loved getting to know you all and can't wait to see you next time we're up doing senior pictures (September 19th and 20th is the next scheduled weekend, if you're asking).

If anyone else is interested in finding out more about how they can host their own Photo Party, contact me. It's not only fun for seniors... for instance - as pre-bachelorette party when everyone is dolled up and ready to go. Awesome Brown Eyed Photography gifts for you and your party friends included!

J-Man at the bay in St. Albans, Vermont

Joe met with me super duper early and even brought his friend Sarah (some of her pictures are already up on facebook) to take advantage of group shoot rates. Joey thought it would be nice to go to the bay... and he was right! There was a great stone building, lots of open green space, and of course water.







Thanks so much Joe! I had fun hanging out with you and can't wait to hear what you think of the pictures!

Seniors in cow country

Back from a brief visit to northern Vermont where I met up with several fun seniors for some senior sessions and a group shoot! More to come...

Great Summer Photo Session Deal!!!

Great for couples, children, families, seniors, and more!

Sabina is here!

Sonja thought her due date was July 11. The baby was measuring for July 11. Sonja's previous babies both came early- one even came a whopping (not good) 10 weeks early. (Here you can see that his early arrival doesn't slow him down now!)
So when July 11 came and went.... and then some, Sonja was feeling very done. At least that's what she said. To everyone else she seemed impressively patient and even cool as the summer finally arrived in New England.
Ten days later the amazing Sabina arrived after a... wait for it... 1 hour and 15 minute birth process! - all vernix covered and looking like she was right on time. I am so excited that Sonja has a girl (a surprise) to balance male contingent in her family.







And a yawn...



Thank you Sonja, so much, for having me come and hang out with the very sleepy Sabina.

Love,
Sarah
