who knew that Little Compton RI has the capacity to look like Serengeti… I mean minus the animals + all. the Kleyla Family Band, that is who knew. they had the privilege of using this private residence in Little Compton to capture some unique images of their band + I am so thrilled that they had me along to document it. go check out their website + if you have the opportunity to see them live, do it!
you may already be familiar with this awesome photographer, but in case you are not, let me introduce you to Lisa ofLisa Frechette Photography. back longer than I would like to mention, Lisa took me under her wing + taught me so much about the wedding photography industry. to give you an idea of how long ago, we were still shooting film. I am so grateful that she took a chance with me as her trusty second photographer because I am pretty sure I would not be where I am today without her. she effortlessly captures the joy + love of her subjects with a timeless + romantic flair. she has an infectious laugh + a great sense of humor. honestly, I feel my funniest after time spent with her, she laughs at all my jokes! she has an awful sense of direction, loves summers more than I do, + is the most down-to-earth perfectionist I have ever met. there is a good chance if you hire her you will see me as I am extremely lucky to continue to hold the title of being her trusty second photographer.
we had a great time down at beavertail state park in Jamestown RI to update her headshots for her new website [ check it out here]. this park has the perfect ocean vistas for a sun-kissed golden hour summer portrait, but beware as we both got the worst case of poison ivy ever, still totally worth it!
family portraits have been a saving grace during the last year. it kept my photography muscles conditioned while also allowing me some safe-distance socializing with a much needed break of the routine of quarantining. this session took place at one of my favorite ri locations; beavertail state park in jamestown. if you are looking to document the family this year + break up the usual routine check out my year long portrait special.
