{Sweet Josie} – Michigan family photography

  When I met Travis & Dana for their initial wedding consultation, it was an instant connection….literally (some of you reading this may get that reference). It may have been because it was in a firehall, full of firemen, but it was special. Their engagement pics….good thing Travis was a fireman, because they were smokin’ […]

SuperSanders – Grand Rapids family photographer

    A little over a year ago I got to photograph cute Asher as he was just turning one year old. A year later, they’ve moved from A to Z with the addition of their second son (whose name is Zade). Since Zade was so eager to have his pictures taken with his new […]

We’ve got our love to keep us warm

When I first met with Dana, I was instantly excited about her personality – just sweet, all around.  When we got to talking about how she and Jason met, the little wheels in my head started turning, and I started imagining a winter photoshoot with vintage skis, cozy blankets, and a lot of love to […]

I met Bridge years ago (ok, not years, but a few) when her good friend, and mine, Emily got married. Anyone who knows B knows she’s so easy to love – fabulous personality, big heart, and a smile that lights up a room. When she got engaged and told me she was going to get […]

Bling bling – with this ring – Michigan Wedding Photographer

Detail shots are an important part of every wedding, and the rings are no exception. Mainly because they are so sparkly and pretty. I’m a girl, I’m sorry, they are sparkly and pretty. One of the things I tend to say to people is “if you want the picture of your hands with rings over […]

Kids from Coast to Coast

Not only have I had some fabulous clients this year, some adorable children (and if you note earlier posts on this blog, some “treasures” I’ve had the opportunity to photograph some children all over the world again! This year I photographed a former high school friends’ kids, watched babies grow from birth to almost 1 […]

Umm, because they needed to be…..not to “save” the photo, but because I had to. Had to. I’m slightly obsessed with […]
