Baby Dante is One!! :CT Portrait Photographer- Renee Descoutures

Baby Dante is One!

It's always such a great compliment to be asked back to photograph a child or a family. This little guy was one of my favorite newborns last year. I've kept in touch with his mom over the past year and was delighted to be asked to shoot his one year portraits. I immediately thought up this idea of him in only his diaper toddling around a baseball field. After all, at the age of one, most babies love to be naked, wonder wherever their little legs will take them and get messy. I was super excited that mom was on board :) Take a look and let me know what you think!

Off came the clothes...and he couldn't have been happier!

I love the next few ..esp in b&w.

Of course there was a little taste test. A little dirt never hurt anymone, right?!

Look at that smile! He is just adorable!!

He came running back to his momma for a snuggle just in time to wrap up the session.

We had a blast and he was ready for a nap. :)
Sherry, it was wonderful to see you and little D again! Thank you for having me back, being so fun and trusting my ideas.

I'll certainly be in touch!

A Mom and Her Sweet Boy: Renee Descoutures Photography-CT Portrait Photographer

Meet Gagan and Anshul,the winners of my Mother's Day portrait session giveaway! I can't think of a mom more deserving of this session. Gagan is a beautiful, kind and caring person and an even better mother. Anshul is a super sweet boy that brings joy and smiles to all who are around, especially his mom. It was my pleasure to spend the afternoon with them around the park and capture some memories for them to look back on.

Thank you for stopping by! Feel free to leave a note below and let me know you were here. Have a wonderful afternoon!

CT Newborn Photographer- Renee Descoutures: Isabella

Meet Baby Isabella! At 3weeks she was a sweet dream to photograph. I was able to snuggle her right to sleep and complete the session full of props and changes without her making a peep! Although she modeled hats and headbands beautifully, at the end of the day, I am really loving her au naturel! So here they are... Enjoy!

As always, thank you for stopping by! Until next time.....

Renee Descoutures Photography: Mom/Child(ren) Portrait Session Giveaway!!

Mothers are in most cases the family photographer. Which means that unless they set the timer on the camera or ASK someone to take a picture of them with their children it doesn't typically happen.The end result..there are very few tangible memories of the mother and child(ren) together...even fewer that are natural or candid.

The GOOD news is that I can help! I would love to capture these moments for you. The BETTER news is that I will capture these moments for one Mom for FREE! That's right, I am giving away a Mother/Child(ren) session for FREE! The BEST news..it's easy to enter!! All you have to do is send out an email to all of your family and friends, including me :), saying that I am having a contest with a link to this blog post! Your name will be entered into the drawing 1 time for every 10 people you send that email to. Easy, right?!

* You have through Monday April 11th to get your emails out! Don't forget to include me, reneedphotography@yahoo.com * Rest assured that I will not spam any of your friends or family *The winner will be drawn and announced on Tues the 12th. * The Free session will take place before May 31, 2011. *The session can not be combined with any other session and is for a mother and her children only(sorry dads, grandparents and grandchildren).

Renee Descoutures: CT Portrait Photographer- Carey

Hello there friendly blog readers! I am so happy you stopped by! I really enjoyed this shoot and am excited to share a few images with you!

I was inspired by dramatic lighting and everything that went along with tap dance..top hat, bow tie, cane, etc...

A huge THANK YOU to Carey and Dance City and The Arts ! Carey was my super gorgeous model for the evening and the Dance City studios were the wonderful backdrops.

Enjoy!

The last three don't have as much to do with dance but I LOVE a beautiful headshot. They are actually some of my favorites from the shoot. Something about that butterfly lighting ...








Thanks again for stopping by! Have a wonderful evening!
