Here at M.Studios we don’t let 22 degree weather stop us from an engagement session. You see, Kathleen and Liam were in town from NYC finalizing their wedding details so we had this one chance to make this shoot happen. Kathleen was able to secure a gorgeous, natural light-filled loft right on Lower Thames Street in Newport. This space could not have been more gorgeous as we literally gasped when we walked in. The colors and styling paired with our gorgeous couple made the start of our time together a dream! With a little inspiration from Lauren Conrad (come on, EVERYBODY loves her) we utilized the loft to capture some interesting angles while Kathleen and Liam danced in the living room downstairs. Once we had explored the indoor space we bravely wandered outdoors. A skill set we have learned over the years is how to photograph quickly under pressure. Whether it’s a race against the clock at a reception or an impending rain shower, we know how to get the shot without unsettling our clients. You could probably count the number of minutes we were outside on two hands! It was THAT cold. We took a quick walk to the water followed by a drive to Brenton Point State Park, which on any given day could quite possibly be the windiest spot in Rhode Island. Yes, we all had windburn, yes all of our eyes were watering and YES it was amazing and so very worth it. While warming up in the car we opened two beautiful cards and two gorgeous necklaces gifted to us by Kathleen and Liam expressing their gratitude and excitement toward having us as their wedding photographers. We feel exactly the same way.
