The Goodman Family | Portland, MI Family Photos
The Goodman Family got together over the weekend and took the time to capture their extended family photos. They chose the perfect day! I love doing extended family photo sessions because not only does the family get a nice portrait of the entire family, but we also break the group down into smaller groups to get other important photos as well. Each family took advantage of this and got updated smaller family photos as well. This means that everyone here left with several great wall portraits of their loved ones! This group was a lot of fun, here are a few of my favorites!

Sully is One! | Cake Smash Photos
I cannot believe how big Sully has grown since the last time I saw him! It has been a minute since I’ve spent time with him, this year truly has gone fast because he is already turning one! This was the perfect time to celebrate with a cake just for him. A cake smash photo session is always a fun thing to watch when a one year old can get their hands on the cake and although Sully took a minute to warm up, he ended up getting the idea! Here are a few of my favorites from Sully’s one year cake smash photo session!

Winslow | Portland, MI Family Photographer
I got to meet up with the two cutest sisters for their photo session the other day. These photos were all taken at their grandmothers home in a small room in their basement, it’s amazing the space you can find for photos at your own home! The size of the room didn’t matter though, because these two definitely found a way to keep several adults occupied during their photo session! They were so busy moving around that each opportunity for a photo was fleeting, I had so much fun watching them play around and getting these photos for their family. Here are a few of my favorites!

The Smith Family | Lansing, MI Family Photography
I was so thrilled when this family reached out to me and told me their story. This home has been in the family for 50 years and it is now for sale. Before the sale of the home, they wanted to make sure to get generational photos, what a GREAT idea! I loved every second I had with this family, they were up for anything. Most of all, I enjoyed hearing them reminisce about the many stories they had in this home. It all sounded perfect. Here are a few of my favorite photos from my time with them.

The Watson Family | Portland, MI Family Photography
I was so thrilled when the Watson Family contacted me to do their family photos because it was definitely time for me to come out of hibernation! Michigan had just gotten more than a foot of snow the last few weeks, so when the Watson’s scheduled their session, they thought we would be hopping through snow drifts for their family photos. Michigan weather had a different idea in mind and on the day of their session it was almost 5o degrees! Luckily we still got photos with some of the beautiful snow before it melted. Here are a few of my favorites from their session!
Thank you to the Watson Family for joining me for family photos, I had so much fun!

Abbie & Kevin | Old Town Lansing Couple Photos
I absolutely loved every second of this session! Abbie contacted me to reserve this session saying that she wanted to have a nice time with her husband that was fun while capturing photos of the two of them. These two lovebirds have two kids at home and like many others, it is so difficult for couples to remember to take photos together. I am so incredibly glad that Abbie and Kevin took the time to celebrate their Valentine weekend with me tagging along! I think we had just as much fun as Abbie had hoped because the laughter did not stop! Here are a few of my favorites:

Reece Turns One! | Westphalia, Michigan Photography
I cannot believe Reece is already turning one! I first met him for his 6 month photos this past summer and he is already preparing for his 1st birthday, time flies! His family invited me to their home for his one year photos which was absolutely perfect. I enjoyed watching Reece interact in the surroundings he is most comfortable in and show me all his cool toys! This was the absolute perfect way to capture Reece’s personality and interests at this stage in his life. Here are a few favorites from his session!
Thank you so much to Reece’s family for inviting me to your home!

The Wade Family | Lowell, MI Family Photos
Take a good look at my friends! I was so excited when the Wades asked me to update their family photos! They are good friends of ours so I knew it was going to be a blast getting these photos and catching up with them. Not too long ago, while I was missing them during the Michigan stay home order, I dropped a little gift on their front porch and came up with a hashtag for our friendship (#jorades) I’m pretty sure everyone thought I was a major dork, but that’s just how I roll! 😂 If that doesn’t give any indication of how comfortable I am in this friendship I don’t know what will, Haha!
Here are a few of my favorites from their session!

The Ward Family | Portland, MI Family Photos
I was so happy when the Ward Family invited me to their home to capture their family photos. Bridget and Andy were quick to introduce me to their newest addition, beautiful little Elise, who is celebrating her 2 month birthday! From the moment I saw these two new parents look at their daughter and introduce her to me, I knew that there was an endless amount of love in their family. I loved capturing these moments for them in their own backyard and know that these gorgeous photos will help them remember a time when Elise was so small. Here are a few of my favorites from my time with the Ward Family!
