Matilda Jane Mini Sessions
So a while ago now I did this fun little Matilda Jane trunk show, and out of it had the fun of doing a few mini sessions – with a bunch of adorable little girls all dressed up in their cute clothes. I’m sorry, but there’s not much quite like MJ (except one designer I […]

Meeting Sienna – Grand Rapids not so newborn photographer

when the one you love….(introducing the new assistant)
….loves what you love….or at least loves you enough to be unimaginably supportive, well, it’s pretty dreamy. For the past two wedding seasons I’ve had the greatest assistant, Lexi Reed. She anticipated my needs, saw things the way I did, and was an absolute doll to work with. She quickly became a great friend, and […]

The Young Ladies – Grand Rapids family photographer

This is How(e) we do it – Elle – Grand Haven child photographer
I met Elle about 9 months ago when I did her sister’s 2 year portraits – a cold blustery day – in November. Brrr…. Well, for Elle’s pictures, we had a lovely June day. A field (sign? what sign? I don’t see a sign?)…..and gorgeous light, and an adorable child who does so well in […]

Sarah & Matt – part 2 – Grand Rapids engagement
So, I had to break tradition and do two blog posts for one session. I loved this session, and I don’t even love horses. I mean, they are cool and all (not to offend the horse lovers, mainly my niece), but I’m not a horse girl. Sarah, however is. And I had NO IDEA when […]

Ahoy mateys! A pirate session for me! – Grand Rapids child photographer
So I’ve been a little obsessed with crafts lately. From sewing bonnets (see the etsy shop here) to making prop backgrounds my glue gun, sewing machine and mind have all been whirling & working hard. One of the things I work on is giving my client a great experience – on taking the time to […]

{Sarah & Matt} – Grand Rapids engagement
This blog post will probably come in two parts – one, because it’s already 11:15 pm and I really want to get pictures on line, and two, because I loved it so much I may have to share it twice! I feel very fortunate that this year has brought me so many fabulous couples, a […]
