{Elsie} – Grand Rapids newborn lifestyle photography
Elsie’s PANK (Professional Aunt, No Kids) Lenna sent me this message not too long ago – “my first niece was born” and as a PANK myself, well I was a little excited, because being an auntie rocks. This past Saturday I went and got to meet said baby….and got my fill of new baby smell, […]

Environmental. Education.
So this shoot originally started out as just a fun way to celebrate spring break with Lilly, who claims (and is right) that she is loved by the camera. As I started wandering around in the woods behind my house, I wondered how I could combine the environment I’m in with a little bit of […]

{Emmitt Family} – West Michigan Family Photographer
I’ve known Beth and Andrew for years….back when they were itty bitty volunteers in politics, and I was a big wig low-level staffer. Yeah, that long ago….anyhoo….times have changed, Andrew & Beth tied the knot, then had a child….then another….and over time, we kept in touch. A couple of years ago, I did their family […]

i heart pink
We all know it. I love pink. A lot. So when the tree outside my boyfriend’s apartment exploded this week, I found myself (several times) just standing under/near/around the tree, staring at its lovely pinkness. So to be fair, I thought I should share it with you. Even if you don’t love pink, you have […]

happy umm, spring?
On this first day of Spring (note: March 20), I’m found sitting in my house at 10:40 pm, windows wide open, and am warm. Sweaty even, as temperatures hit 80 degrees today. In Michigan. The past week has been filled with gorgeous days, blooming flowers, and amazing sunlight. As I sat in my office yesterday […]

Mini Miller
Just under three years ago (May 2009, to be exact), I got to share in Josh & Lisa’s very special wedding day, and while her last name may have never changed in my phone contacts, some things certainly have! Like 2 will soon become 3. A little baby boy will soon join this lovely family. […]
