2023: get outside!

Some of my favorite sessions each year are when we can ditch the studio and head outside. Whether it’s springtime in the park, summer at the beach, or fall under the crisp colorful leaves, outdoor sessions always have that ‘wow’ factor that I love!

2023: birthday and babies

There was a lot to celebrate in 2023! messy birthday, toddling toddlers, sweet sitters, and so much more!

Take a look at some of our milestone sessions from the past year.

2022 Holiday Mini Sessions

This year I offered two different sets for holiday mini sessions, and I still can’t pick a favorite. The sweet and cozy Christmas bed matched up perfectly with smiling kids in winter pajamas, but the classic fireplace hearth is timeless and beautiful. Which would you prefer for your holiday cards?

2020, what a year! | Massachusetts Portrait Photographer

Well, I don’t quite know what to say about 2020. I can say that it’s been a whirlwind of a year, so much so that I didn’t even blog any sessions this year! Between teaching full time, switching to “remote” teaching, helping me kids at home who are also learning remote, all while maintaining my own small business and my sanity… it’s been a stretch for sure!

I can say that I’m still blessed with amazing clients, happy babies, sweet toddlers, adorable siblings, and fun clients for mini session.

Take a look at some of my favorite Mini Session memories from 2020…


There's Always Room for More | Providence Newborn Photographer

I had the best morning with this beautiful family, who just welcomed a new baby sister to the mix. She’s calm and sweet and oh so pretty, and so loved by her parents and big brothers and sister. All of the kiddos were so well behaved, and I love every single image in her gallery.



Anniversary Milestone | Providence Family Photographer

I had the best time with this fun family, who had gathered to celebrate their 40th anniversary! The weather was perfect, the children were well behaved, and we caught some beautiful memories that are sure to be cherished by their family for years to come.

Meet Marissa. She’s just as sweet as she beautiful, and couldn’t have joined a more loving family. Her big brothers love to snuggle and hold her, and mom and dad are definitely thrilled to have a baby girl to balance out their home. Welcome, sweet little one.



Brown Eyed Girl | Boston Baby Photographer

I had such a fun morning meeting this sweet girl, her big brother, and mama. The camera just loves her beautiful baby face, and I loved watching how much her brothers loves her! We already have plans in the works for her birthday session, so we’ll get to see them again in just a few short months.



The Big One | Boston First Birthday Photographer

Sweet Cooper was back to celebrate his first birthday! He brought along his beautiful big sister and some super cute baby smiles. We giggled, sang songs, and watched Cooper shyly play with his very own birthday cake. Happy Birthday, sweet boy!



Gentle Baby | Boston Newborn Photographer

Everyone loves a new baby… especially when the baby is as sweet and gentle and little Grayson. He was perfectly behaved for his very first portrait session, and loved being wrapped and swaddled. Welcome to the world, sweet boy.



A Boy, Loved by Girls | Providence Newborn Photographer

This tiny boy is oh so loved. Not just by mom and dad. But by his four big sisters, too! What a lucky little boy, to be surrounded by so much love. And he is just as calm and sweet as he is handsome. Welcome to the world, sweet baby Jason.



Welcome, Little One | Boston Newborn Photographer

Meet Norah. Her family recently relocated to the area, and I’m so glad they chose Piggy Toes Photograpy. Norah is as sweet as she is beautiful, and I had a wonderful time chatting with and getting to know her parents. Welcome, sweet girl. (and go, Patriots!)

Half Birthday Party | Boston Baby Photographer

Darling Emma was calm and sweet for her newborn session just six short months ago, so I wasn’t at all surprised to see that she’s still an easy going, happy girl. We included mom, dad, and big sis in her session, and she was the first baby to try out my new weathered white wood backdrop! I’m already looking forward to her birthday session this summer because I know she’ll be so fun.



Little Sis, Big Smiles | Providence Baby Photographer

I’ve had so much getting to know this sweet family for more than five years now, since their oldest was just a babe. This year, we’ll get to see each other again to finish up sweet EverLeigh’s baby plan. I can’t believe it’s already been half a year since her newborn session. Such a beautiful, happy girl.



A Sweet Year | Providence First Birthday Photographer

It’s hard to believe how much this handsome little guy has grown in just twelve short months. He’s happy and sweet and easy to please, and we all just loved watching him devour his birthday cake. Happy Birthday!



Happy Girls | Providence Baby Photographer

Darling little Elena is back, with her silly big sister, and they’re just the sweetest ever. We had so much fun playing, giggling, and tickling, and I love watching the girls interact with each other. I’m already looking forward to her birthday session next year!

Soft and Squishy | Providence Newborn Photographer

Meet Declan… one of the most squishy little guys I’ve ever met. He slept like a champ, and tolerated outfit and pose changes, too. I just loved spending the morning with his family. Welcome, sweet boy.



Forever Friends | Providence Newborn Photographer

These sweet sisters definitely have a best friend for life. I loved watching big sis hold and snuggle her baby, and even got in a few snuggles myself. Beautiful and gentle definitely runs in the family here, and I hope mom and dad enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed spending the morning with their family.



Mama's Best Friend | Boston Newborn Photographer

It was such a pleasure to meet sweet miss Maya and her parents this week. She’s as peaceful as she is beautiful, and I just adore her tiny curls and sweet baby skin. Welcome, baby girl. You are so loved.
