Danielle and Tim | Newport Engagement Photography
When Danielle messaged me looking to do her engagement session in Newport, Rhode Island, I knew that the beautiful Cliff Walk, Ochre Court and at her suggestion, Midtown Oyster Bar would be perfect this time of year. The scenery of Newport is quintessential RI, and while Danielle and Tim await their Linden Place wedding in Bristol, Rhode Island, where else to get a little posing practice than in America's most beloved summer playground?
Danielle and Tim, in fact, needed no practice with posing. They were complete naturals and perhaps, the most adorable couple I've ever met. I mean, look at Tim's shirt at the Oyster Bar?! It's just quirky, funny and a nod to the fact that they can never have any pets due to his allergies. Way to give to your lady, Tim. At least she has a cat on your shirt!
By the way, you can find that bad boy on Amazon. You can thank me later.













Charlie | Rhode Island portrait photographer | House of Lubold Photography
Adorable. When Charlie turned one this fall, we joined he and his parents at the beautiful Colt State Park in Bristol for a portrait session to commemorate the milestone. Here are some of our favorite images of a very adorable boy! I don't know how many times I told Mom and Dad that I was obsessed with those eyes.
This family is a prime example of my frequent "coordinate, don't match" rule for holp | portraits.








We're the Lubolds.
We both love...
Documentaries, Coca-cola, shopping, cancelled shows like Downton Abbey and the Newsroom, spending time with our son, niece and nephew, going to Disney World, laughing together, podcasts, eating good food.
Shanna loves...
to shop, hang out with her mom, read books like a boss, decorate, and dance around the house, alone or with a partner.
Mike loves...
to golf, watch sports, bake cookies and cakes from scratch, the occasional cigar and hanging out with his mother-in-law. No, really. He does.
Sam loves...
Legos, his cousins, soccer, Portugal, Minecraft, Benfica, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, Julian Edelman and the Boston Red Sox. He has a love of nice clothes and comfortable shoes. He does a killer British accent. He enjoys spending time with his Avó and absolutely adores playing with Daddy. His first love is his Mom, and she can make everything better with a hug and kiss.
