JR & Ronda spent some time with me and the camera before Ty arrived…and finally, after three months we got together again! This time we all got to share in the wonder of baby Ty!

My cousin, Stacy (Shooks) Kraus graciously lets me stay at her home when I’m in SE Michigan – as do her parents – I’m so fortunate to have such loving family members!
In exchange for “hotel services,” I take pics of Stacy’s family. This time it was extended family, all of her husband’s fam…let’s just say 8 adults are easy, but add 6 kids to that, and whew, this photographer crashed at 7:40 pm!
I haven’t had much time for editing this week, so there’s just a couple up here:

“And the bride wore red.”
Red shoes, that is. I couldn’t imagine a better pick for the woman who loves Nathan….and shoes….(in that order). Nate & Amanda….chills, tears, and an amazing amount of love. I pray for a wonderful life together and am happy to call you both my friend.

So this may be a long one…..or multiple posts in one night.
First off….introducing Evan.
Evan, I met your momma over a year ago at her cousin’s wedding, and since then we realized we have serious Kevin Bacon-ish connections. Every time we talk, there is another connection. It was wonderful to spend time getting to know you – I’m sure I’ll see more of you!

Sophie Titus – Sweet, sweet, Sophie. I just about nibbled her to pieces she was so edible.
It was fun to spend time with Michelle & Scott too, but I promise I didn’t nibble them. 🙂

Time…that seemed to have paused for these two….antique lace….an old manor….and a timeless love for each other.
Chad & Karla – thank you for allowing Tina & I to be a part of your beautiful day!

Layla…got me on my knees…trying to get that shot…
Layla & Sophia’s session happened in two stages – the other one today (Sunday the 19th)…so stay tuned for more, but this one was just too cute – I had to post it!
Josh & Lisa have a May wedding planned, and we were so blessed to have a gorgeous fall day in Michigan for their e-pics – at the BEACH no less. It’s going to be so fun to celebrate with them this spring – and capture more of how much they love each other!
