Wedding & Portrait Photographer
OKAY. Kristy & Ezra are another past couple… and can I just say.. I LOVE that my past wedding couples still come to me for their growing family photos! <3
Loved meeting their sweet new addition. I know it was a HOT night at the beach that night, but the sunset sure put on a show!
Hands down… favorite smash cake. 2020 has been a crappy year but its really pushed my creativity and set the bar high for awesome sessions like this! Jessica & Adam were a past couple of mine and already are celebrating this little chunks first birthday! This sweet baseball themed smash cake was SO fun.
It started to rain about 10 mixtures before we were done with the session, but the sky did some pretty cool things afterward.
Bud & Adrienne are friends of the Homan family. So it was pretty fun to have my bother in law in the bridal party, and feel like I was just hanging with friends all day! I know this day is not exactly what these two envisioned but they made the best of it! Adrienne said from the get go, they were getting married that day and thats all there was to it! They wanted to get married so nothing was stopping them. <3 It was a special day for them and im so happy I was a part of it!
Cant wait to party with them again next year!
Brittani & Sam were supposed to get married this August but they pushed to next year due to covid. IM SO GLAD IT WORKED OUT AND I COULD STILL BE THEIR PHOTOGRAPHER. I love these guys and im TRULY excited for their rooftop, Michigan wedding next July!
Oh. And look at their cute pup! - When Brittani asked if they could bring their puppy Phylis to the session… I said there was no question there… bring the pup.
This was for sure my fave engagement session so far this year! <3
OH… Jeff & Lizzy… I was so happy to see these guys again. Its been a hot minute since I have seen these two, almost three. I was SO excited that these guys had me capture these memories for them. Their wedding last year was one of my favorites and my most memorable. Beach sessions have been my jam lately and this was just a cherry on top of the summer! <3
Madeline & Jake had one of my favorite wedding days at Sandy Pines…
Its no secret that Sandy Pines is one of my favorite venues in the area, and I always go a little nuts with photos here. I always say make sure to have at least 90 minutes of portrait time for me here… cause I cant quit! Once I get going I cant stop.
I cannot say enough good things about these two love birds. They are perfect for each other, and I had a BLAST capturing their special day. <3
Peep at their first look! It was one of my favoritesssss!
Hannah & Cameren were two people I clicked with right away at our consult last year.
My father in law works with Cameren and told me he’s not much of a talker… well, at our meeting he talked up a storm…. You could tell that he just adores Hannah, and WHO WOULDNT? I mean by the end of our first meeting I could see myself becoming GOOD friends with Hannah. Hannah is the sweetest soul, and these two were just made for each other.
Hannah & Cameren both said no matter what happened with COVID, they would get married and they SURE did. They told me a little secret before their day, and I was so excited they were able to announce it with these photos! :)
I can not wait to see these two again soon. They are my favorite people. <3
I am still behind.. with everything in life.. but Finnegan’s lifestyle newborn session was TOO sweet to not post about!
For the first few minutes of the session, I literally thought he was scared of me.. and I think he was! But as the session moved on he got used to me :)
I was so excited for this session back in June! I swear they are just the sweetest family ever. Their two boys are so smiley and we had NO shortages in smiles.
This was a nice way to kick off outdoor sessions for sure! <3
Okay Kelly & Nathan were models in their past lives… or they are models now.. Either way they are stunning and I was so happy I could capture these memories for them!
I dont have much to say, because the images speak for themselves…
It was such a fun day! Nathan and his boys having an afternoon shot, or two. Kelly and her girls getting some ice cream at culver’s! <3
Angela & Alex kicked off wedding season back in June. The world was still a giant question mark. These two pushed through that and made sure they were standing in front of their family to say their vows!
It was such a beautiful day and it was a great way to kick of wedding season. I feel like I haven’t had a chance to sit down since this day!
Sandy Pines will forever be my favorite venue in this are. I mea.n… the perfect sunset portrait place… the prefect dress hanging place… its really just perfect.
This might be my favorite wedding… of 2020! <3
OH. MY. GOOODNESS! Look at this chunk! Im sure you have seen these faces at a recent session from a few weeks ago. Their greenhouse session was the first time I had met them and im looking forward to their next session in a few months!! <3
Oh the sweet Arambula family… <3
I have loved Valerie and her family from the start. Last year I shot an extra special session for them and it was just so beautiful. I am so thankful they stick with me and I get to see them a couple of times a year!
I mean.. look how CUTE they are! Little Harper is SO adorable. I know she doesn’t remember me from her newborn photos, but she made an impression on me for SURE!
I cant wait to do these again next year!! It was a blast!
Round two of greenhouse minis were almost as great as the first! There wasn’t a lot of hanging baskets like the first round but it was a fun challenge!
These little girls are like night and day, but are SO adorable. It took awhile for Luna to warm up to me, but those smiles just kept coming!
I am behind. behind. behind. on blogging. I thought 2020 was going to be different year… I think we all thought that really.. but here I am. Just a few months behind :)
I am sure glad I got to see this family again! I mean it had been a hot minute since seeing them for their Christmas mini like last year??
I just loved this newborn session.. <3
Jennifer contacted me wanting family photos in their backyard, and I got all excited! I love when clients want to incorporate their homes and their hard work. And let me tell you. This front & back yard is AMAZING! I give props to Mr Jones over there… I can barley keep a spider plant alive and they are supposed to be “unkill-able” BET.
This is one of my favorite sessions!
OH MY! Where to start. When driving to their session that day, clouds moved in and a cold front snapped us back to spring reality.. I am FOREVER thankful we waited until the last bit of “sunlight” to leave. Because we had the BEST sunset that day. It was incredible.
I am SO excited to see these two very soon for their October wedding day! <3
This was my second lifestyle newborn session after quarantine, and it was just a breath of fresh air…
It was great to catch up with Sean and meet Katie & Gavin for the first time!
Sweet little Gavin was not having it for the first half of the session but after some food and rocking he was asleep and good to go for the last half!
I truly love lifestyle newborn sessions. Its just so nice to be in a clients home and be where they feel most comfortable.
I met Jessica last year when she booked a boudoir session with me!! She lives out in Michigan and I causally mentioned I was going to stop at Round Barn to get some wine to take home since I was so close! She was like HEY! I like wine! SO thats the story about how we spent the rest of the day together! Stephanie, one of my trusted makeup artists rode up with me to the session so it was the three of us enjoying a nice couple of hours beautiful weather and wine!
Now fast forward to May of THIS year. I finally got to meet Kyle! I loved loved loved their sessionnn! It was SO fun to see a familiar face, and take pictures. Their pictures are some of my favorites! AND they brought their sweet pups! <3
