If you like honest, real moments, I'm your girl

I adoooooore one year olds. Their personalities are in full bloom and they are just learning to walk. Being one year old + walking + short attention span = lots of chasing and moving locations 🙂 First, we started on the porch… Then we moved to the back yard… And finally we ended up in […]

It’s summa summa time with one of my very favorite families!!! Annnnnnd, let’s wrap it up with one of my very favorite photo bombs EVER!!!

This couple and their story is so very special in so many ways. I know Monica from when I photographed the wedding of Matt and Alethea (Monica’s sister) five years ago, and have continued to photograph them over the years. Alethea told me last year that her sister, Monica, was getting married on Mackinac Island […]

I still think of her as little Miss Michigan as when I first photographed her (here and here). Holy MOLY, look at her now…all teenagery n stuff. I adore this beautiful girl, and am so happy to photograph her through the years. World, meet Vivian…

Every time I photograph this family, we just click. Maybe it’s all of those boys. You KNOW I know boys. Maybe it’s because they are just so easy going and fun. Or perhaps it’s that our sessions feel more like hangouts than work. Doesn’t matter, I adore them and they are awesome 🙂

Yeah, I know. Amazing couple, amazing location. She was worried about the wind. I said, just you wait. It made the perfect accessory to their shore side location. Can’t WAIT for this wedding 🙂

Ahhhhh, Josh and Sarah. Could your day have been ANY more perfect? Beautiful location. Perfect weather. Fun bridal party and family. And truly and absolutely a fabulous bride and groom. Congratulations, my new friends!! Location: Traverse City, Michigan Ceremony: Peninsula Room Reception: West Bay Beach, Holiday Inn Resort DJ: Rusch Entertainment Cake: Ruth Ann Segovia […]
