In my years of being a family photographer, I find that having your family photos taken at home puts little kiddos and pets in a state safety and comfort. Not to mention convenient with treats for bribery or new outfits being in the next room! I’ve been on this wonderful journey with Kaitlyn and Andrew […]
This engagement session made the DIA (Detroit Institute of Arts) one of my favorite places to take photos at. The clean backdrops of the stunning marble building paired with the golden hour light just gives me joy. We started right at the iconic front of the building, basking in that gorgeous golden light as the […]
I had the opportunity to work with Chloe on this editorial studio maternity shoot a couple months ago. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her for years! Everything from her engagement and rehearsal dinner to her wedding day and even a handful of family sessions. So when she told me she was expecting again, […]
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 get super pumped every time I get to photograph engagement photos in Chicago, and this last couple was an absolute delight. They were a bit nervous initially, admitting they needed some guidance, which is totally fine. I love having those conversations because it gives me a chance to explain my approach and make them […]
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 […]
