It’s not too often that I get to work with extended families, but when I do, here’s my approach! One of my favorite families to work with, Chloe and Joe’s families, had me take some extended family photos last fall. I’ve been lucky enough to hang out with them during so many different milestones that […]
I had such a blast shooting Sadie and Brady’s engagement photos at Pohlcat Golf Course recently! Right from the get-go, they told me how much they love golfing together, and it just sparked an idea! We met during sunset at the course, and catching that golden hour light was pure magic. It was honestly the […]
I’ve photographed many spring family photos over the years, but it’s always a joy to catch up with Kaitlyn and Scotty. We’ve been on this amazing ride together for a few years now! Starting from their wedding (which they had to postpone—life has its surprises, right?) to capturing their engagement, maternity, and now their third […]
And make it Harley Davidson themed I’ve got to share these amazing couples photos in Holland I did recently with my friends Hannah and Justin. They wanted something that really celebrated their love for riding, so I recommended this spot in West Michigan knowing it was going to compliment their vision perfectly. From the moment […]
I’ve been a wedding photographer for almost a decade and curate a wedding timeline for almost all my couples, so here’s a real sample for nine hours of coverage with one photographer!

I get super pumped every time I get to photograph engagement photos in Chicago, and this last couple was an absolute delight.

I took a trip to Colorado a couple years ago where I got to hang out with some of my favorite people shooting an elopement styled shoot at Garden of the Gods. My friends were super enthusiastic about doing a destination elopement styled shoot since they were getting married that following year. We ended up […]
You can expect to be at Lake Michigan for engagement photos when you’re a photographer on the West side of the state. I’ve photographed hundreds of shoots on the lakeshore, and I don’t think I’ll ever get bored of it. I just had most incredible engagement session at Windstnest Park in West Olive, Michigan. When […]
If your horses feel like family, I encourage you to try and include them for your engagement session (and family shoots, too)! This post covers work from an engagement shoot, but I’ll definitely be making one that displays a family shoot I’ve done with one! These two lovebirds brought their two gorgeous horses along, which […]
I got to work with these two for their couples session in Grand Rapids and wanted to share some of the posing ideas I used! I’ve been working with Guadalupe and Mario for a few years now, documenting their family, and I was so thrilled they wanted to do a shoot just for the two […]
