It doesn't mean that I put my camera away but I am more deliberate in what and when I shoot.  This shot was on my 2016 personal photography bucket list (Inspired by Sholanda at Chubby Cheek Photography in TX) and I'm just in love with it.  Making some magic this year.

a session so close to my heart https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/12/a-session-so-close-to-my-heart Sometimes you have one of those incredibly special sessions.  The ones that just aren't for the annual photo but the ones that hold an even more special meaning to them.  My sweet friend Kristen asked for one of these incredibly special sessions and this one hits all of the "feels".  Not only was this session so close to my heart but all the stars aligned - the light was perfect, the location was perfect, these kiddos are the sweetest... I couldn't have asked for more.

I was honored that she trusted me to take these pictures for her, to help tell her story and honor all of her children.  She also trusted me enough to let me pick the most random off the side of the road location during golden hour (the time of day which is most magical).

Thank you Kristen.  Thank you for being a beautiful, kind and thoughtful momma and friend.

a sweet backyard session https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/12/a-sweet-backyard-session This beautiful family belongs to one of my oldest friends Jess.  When I say oldest I don't mean it in the literal way but in the way that I have known her since I was 3 years old.  You see, we grown up 2 houses away from another and both of our parents still live in those houses.  Jess has since moved away but she was home for her brothers wedding so we decided to get some updated family pictures. 


I don't know how she does it, but she makes mommin' 4 kids look easy peasy! (I have trouble mommin' 2!)  All of these were taken in her childhood backyard.  I always tell people we can make beautiful pictures anywhere including their backyards so I was so excited that this is where we stayed! Next time I'm coming to visit you Jess and we will take some beach pictures on Cape Cod! :)

A fall family session in CT! https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/12/a-fall-family-session-in-ct We had so many great days this fall!  I was lucky enough to head down to CT to photograph some of my favorite families there too one weekend!  I love the S family.  Mr. S and I worked together for many years and Mrs. S and I were pregnant at the same time for both of our kids so you can imagine all the stories that we have been able to share (plus we are both Portuguese families!).  It was so fun being able to catch up with them and see how much Cameron and Abby have grown up!

Wall art https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/10/wall-art I was inspired by a pin on pinterest I saw and knew something similar had to hang in Mallory's room.  If you know Mallory, you know that this fits her personality perfectly!  It is sized 12x12 and if you want to order one head on over here to have it printed for yourself!

Back to school minis https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/9/back-to-school-minis This year I decided to do something a little different and fun.  Both of my kids are at different schools and a lot of my close friends are some incredible teachers in our public school system.  This year I decided to offer FREE 5 minute back to school mini sessions if you brought in a bag of school supplies.  I polled some of these awesome teachers and asked for them to make me a list of things they would need for their classroom this year.  These kids and their parents DELIVERED! we were able to give some schools SO MUCH stuff! It was awesome and I know all of the teachers appreciated the goodies we brought. Now on to the cuteness!

summer minis https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/9/summer-minis Summer minis gave me a run for my money this year.  The weather was HOT... and when I say hot I mean heavy humidity and near 100 degrees.  Sometimes too hot to have anyone play around outside with me without looking like they were melting.  Needless to say my minis had to be rescheduled here and there to fit everyone back in.  The Browns were able to meet up with me and I have to say, it was so much fun catching up with them.  Their boys are absolutely adorable and I'm so excited and someone is turning 1 soon! :)

catching back up https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/9/catching-back-up Busy season is upon me and that means that my blog has suffered.  Get ready because I am about to overload you with cuteness from back in August!  I have a lot of sessions to catch up blog-wise and I plan to do so within the next few days. (at least that is what my to-do list is telling me!)

First up - The Kane family's beach session.  Sarah and I have been planning this session for a while now.  She knew she wanted a family beach session so we set a date and made it happen!  We headed down to the Connecticut shore to snap these beauties and I am so in love with how they came out! Thanks for taking the drive :) (and for driving!)

July wrap up https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/8/july-wrap-up July is always a busy month... kids are out of school, its my birthday, we go on vacations, my day job is busy and lets be honest - the work at home, well it never ends! 

This July I did something on my photography bucket list - I had a mentoring session with Missy Mayo of Missy Mayo Photography. Missy is a HUGE inspiration to me.  Her work is full of fun, movement and color.  And I can't forget to mention that she is also just totally sweet! You need to check out her blog, facebook or Instagram account because you will just flip over the magic she is able to create! Missy has a lot of fun at her sessions and was able to give tons of tips and tricks on getting the kids (and parents) to relax and just enjoy themselves even more.  Be on the look out for me to bring this to upcoming sessions of mine! 

In addition to my mentoring session I had multiple sessions to wrap up prior to heading out on vacation (which you can also see on the blog here, here and here).  We headed out to Plum Island in Newburyport this year for a week with some friends.  Know that when you go on vacation with the Dos family at least an hour is going to be dedicated to some family beach pictures :) .  Enjoy some pics from our summer so far and take a peek into my iPhone and gopro pics in this video.  I hope August brings just as much fun!

I hope you are all enjoying your summer!

I hope you two stay in touch because best friends are forever

my littles https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/5/my-littles This year I'm vowing to take some more pictures of my own kids (sans iPhone!). 

They are my absolute toughest subjects.  I maybe get their attention for 10 minutes and there is always a bribe of some sorts involved.  (aka my 2 1/2 yr old has chewed gum!) If you have been around her or know her at all - this is SO her!! I offered a toy and she poo-pooed that and said straight faced "I want gum".  My 5 yr old doesn't even ask for or chew gum.  But Mallory, well she is way ahead of herself.  Sometimes I have to remember how young she is because she is wise beyond her years.  She doesn't miss a beat.  She is spicy and sassy and she totally acts like my brother (if any of you know him! haha).  She is one of a kind but I wouldn't have it any other way and I know that I will love her strong-mindedness later in life because she will stick up for herself like no other.  My boy on the other hand, he is laid back and as easy going as they come.  Total opposite these two.

if you are interested in following along with our daily antics, feel free to follow me on Instagram I'd love to see you over there!

All things Austin - A Pinkletoes workshop review https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2016/3/all-things-austin---a-pinkletoes-workshop-review I have been patiently waiting 3 years to take a workshop with Michele.  Three years ago I didn't feel "good enough" to take a workshop with someone of her caliber.  Last year she took the year off from teaching workshops and when I received an email in October 2015 that her 2016 dates are posted I don't think I could have signed up fast enough!

Michele's work speaks to me. It evokes emotion. It is colorful and cheerful. It is real. It is everything I want to strive to be - with my spin of course. And Michele, well she is the direct reflection of her work.  She is all of those things and more. An amazing teacher, an open book, a generous hostess... the list seriously goes on. 

Michele gives her all and her workshop is no exception - it did not disappoint. It was everything I thought it would be and MORE. The experience, the learning, the new friends. Going to Austin not knowing anyone was totally out of my comfort zone and yet I came home excited, refreshed and ready to dig in to all of the new things I have learned.

If you haven't seen her work please do yourself a favor and check it out I promise you will fall head over heels with her too.

Some of my favorite images from the weekend - and some behind the scenes as well.

Still interested in seeing more?  Check out the other ladies that were at the workshop:

So You by Erica Sue

Bridget is 4 https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2015/12/bridget-is-4 Momma and I have been trying to come up with a date to celebrate Bridget's 4th birthday and we finally were able to - it just happened to be the absolute coldest day of the season thus far!  I swear it was so cold it should have just been snowing.  But Bridget was a trooper.  She had a photoshoot all for herself and even styled herself! Her personality is amazing and it truly shines through those eyes of hers.  Hope you had a fabulous day!

fall family session https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2015/12/fall-family-session Love getting to catch up with this family every year.  This year they invited me up to Greathorse to take their family photographs. Such a beautiful place and the scenery is breathtaking - it was a perfect spot to spend a fall afternoon.

These girls are growing up so fast - I'm sure momma thinks so too!

my boy is 5 https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2015/12/my-boy-is-5 Seriously, where does the time go.  How can 5+ years pass that fast when I can remember the day like it was yesterday? I'm sure all of you mommas feel the same but to me it means he isn't so little anymore. Just a little more independent, a little more taller, a little more stronger. 

Keaton - you are seriously one amazing boy. Always smiling, laughing or cuddling. You are my little cartoon character. I hope you continue to stay silly and have the deep love for life that you do today. You were the one I prayed for - love you to the moon and back little man.

another workshop review https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2015/1/another-workshop-review Get ready for more of these workshop reviews this year - there are a couple planned in the books!!..

The week before Christmas I was able to spend a day with Kelly Ross of Kelly Ross Photography.  If you are local to the area you already know her and her amazing newborn work.  My goal for this workshop was to incorporate some natural newborn posing into my lifestyle work.  We had two models while Kelly and I worked side by side to create some poses that I wanted to work on along with some time for lunch and business talk of course! 

Kelly is oh so patient and kind to share all of her knowledge.  If you ever have the opportunity to take a workshop with her I highly recommend it - it will not disappoint!  Here are some of my favorite images from that day!  enjoy.

Workshop review https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2014/2/workshop-review Recently I wrapped up a workshop called Capturing Joy with Lisa Tichane of Tout Petit Pixel Photographie and I can sum it up in one word.  AMAZING. 

Just looking at Lisa’s pictures make you smile and that is what her workshop was all about.  Finding our inner joy, taking pictures in a way that translates joy to not just the viewer but the client as well and making sure they are having fun while we are shooting.

This workshop came at the perfect time for me.  While I take time to plan my sessions and have multiple things in mind for us to do, sometimes kids have a different plan in mind and you have to just go with the flow.  Making sure the kids are happy and doing something they like to do will help translate into photos that will make you smile.

Lisa is nothing short of an amazing teacher as well.  Not only was the class material great but her critique, feedback and insight was all invaluable.  If you are looking for something to really boost your creativity or just for taking a different approach for shooting, I would highly recommend this class!

Here is a share of some of my personal pictures from the class.

A beautiful family - Western Mass Photographer https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2013/5/a-beautiful-family Last weekend I got to hang out with this awesome family!  Mr. Drew started off a little shy but ended up being such a ham for me.  And big sister Clara just turned 5!!  Hope you had a great birthday!

A Family in the Field - Connecticut Family Photographer https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2013/4/a-family-in-the-field I finally was able to shoot at a field I have been eyeing for a little over a year now.  I drive by it on my way home from work every day and the light that hits it around 5:30 is just Ahh-MAZING!.. When a friend from work asked me to take pictures of her family I knew exactly where I was going to take them!

Congratulations to them on their growing family - Mr. M is going to be the best big brother around!

Little lady - Ludlow Family Photographer https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2013/4/little-lady I've said it before and I'll say it again, I may be a little bias but she is a beauty!.. My favorite little lady and only niece has just turned 5 months old!  Where has the time gone?  Pretty soon she will have another little lady to run around with at family parties and they can hide from all the boys in the family!.. I can't wait!  Enjoy your sneak peek Miss. L - love you

I've been missing for a while.... https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2013/2/ive-been-missing-for-a-while I have been really bad about blogging over the past few months and I really need to get better at it.  Winter months are hard to get out, shoot and get motivated but I took an amazing class this winter by Kellie Hatcher called Light + Life from The Define School.  Honestly, I can't say enough amazing things about this class! Kelli is an amazing photographer and her teaching style is out of this world!  The connection she makes with her clients and how comfortable they all look in her pictures amazes me. 

I recently had the honor of taking some lifestyle family and maternity pictures and wanted to share a few.  In a clients home that was so laid back - we chatted, played and just had fun.  I hope you enjoy!

It’s beginning to feel like fall! https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2012/9/it-s-beginning-to-feel-like-fall And that means fall family sessions are here!  I got to meet up with this family over the weekend and we played, took some pictures and then played a little more!  We had such a fun time – these girls are a hoot and their little cousin is just too cute for words!

Enjoy your sneak peek!

Beautiful Momma-to-be https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2012/9/beautiful-momma-to-be Yesterday was perfect.  The setting, the light and the couple!  The little girl born to these two is one lucky little lady!  She already has two incredible parents who can not wait for her arrival!  I’m so excited for my beautiful friend and her amazing husband.  Congratulations to both of you – I was honored to take your maternity pictures!

Pretty Princess https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2012/7/pretty-princess I remember the day that this little girl was born and soon she will be 4!  Where has the time gone?  We had so much fun hanging out.  We danced around with dolls, chased butterflies and practiced our pinata skills.  I think dad is going to have to invest in a pinata for this years birthday party because Haylie is pretty good at it! :)

Dream a little dream… https://www.dosstudios.com/blog/2012/7/dream-a-little-dream So I decided to do it.  I have decided to take the plunge and try out a dream of mine - a BIG dream!  First I would like to thank you for following me on this journey.  Thank you to all of the families I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing over the past year to build my portfolio.  And a big thank you to my family and friends for believing in me. I am so excited to see where this dream takes me.

Here is where I will share bits, pieces and a glimpse into my personal and photography life – Enjoy the ride, I’m sure I will!

xo,

Laura
