Devin | Westphalia, Michigan Newborn Photos
I was recently invited to the Hanses family home to meet their newest addition, Devin! I have photographed this family before but with the newest member of the family here, it was the perfect time to capture some photos.
When I arrived, I could see a familiar face in the window waiting for me. Little Reece, who is now 2 years old, had been practicing his smile all day and was determined to show me how well he could do. I cannot believe how quickly kids grow at this age and Reece reminded me of just that! We quickly found our spot in their home for photos and got right to work. When Devin needed some extra attention from mom during the photo session, Reece and I read his favorite book which was an absolute delight. It was no time at all though before Devin fell back asleep and slept through the remainder of his newborn pictures! We got so many cute ones to choose from, but here are a few of my favorites!

Kenzley | Pewamo, Michigan Newborn Photos
I was welcomed into Kenzley’s home this week for her newborn photos and couldn’t be more excited to have met her! When I arrived, little Kenzley was napping but it didn’t take too long before she was awake and telling us what she wanted. Even then, after some time and attention, Kenzley settled right down for another nap and some beautiful pictures! I love that we could use her nursery as the location for her photos, it really is the perfect spot. Here are a few of my favorites from my time with her and her parents.

Grand Beauty Solutions | Small Business Branding Photos East Lansing, MI
I was so excited to capture Dana for her business branding photos recently. She owns Grand Beauty Solutions, LLC and recently opened a storefront in the East Lansing, Michigan area. I got right to work with looking around the space and prepping for the session, there are so many wonderful details! You can tell there was a lot of thought and love put into the space where Dana will be working and it is so cute!
We got right to work with the photo session and made enough time to capture Dana working, her professional headshots (and we even added some fun ones) plus a few product photography shots! It was a very purposeful photoshoot and Dana is leaving it with so many beautiful photo options to choose from to help grow her business! She will be able to use these on social media, her website, business cards and more! Here are a few of my favorites from the day!

Daddy Daughter Dance | Portland, Michigan
Each February, I am asked to photograph the Daddy Daughter Dance hosted by the City of Portland. This event is a great opportunity for many children to get their best dressed and go on a special “date night” with one of their favorite people.
Many local businesses participate in the Daddy Daughter Dance festivities by running dinner specials or offering corsages. The dance occurs over two evenings each February and both evenings are full of people looking to give their child a special night. I have been photographing the Daddy Daughter Dance for several years and one of my favorite things is seeing many of the kids growing up year after year. I am already looking forward to next year!
The Daddy Daughter Dance is held annually in Portland. When registration opens, it is typically located here.

The Setter Family | Portland, MI Family Photography
The Setter Family gathered this New Years Day for photos as a gift to their parents/grandparents. I cannot think of a better gift for them to cherish and am so happy this group gathered to capture this for their family. It definitely was a cold one outside when we captured these, but you can hardly tell! Here are a few of my favorites from my time with them!

Zoey | Portland, Mi Pet Photography
Zoey is celebrating her 10th birthday! The love between her and Angie (her person) is evident when you are around these two and I can see why these photos were the perfect way to celebrate their bond (and Zoey’s birthday)! I was so happy that Angie decided to capture these. Here are a few of my favorites from my time with them!

Josephine Turns 5 | Lake Odessa, Mi Birthday Photos
Josephine (Joey) gets so excited when I show up to take her photos, and I get excited too! This girl is the sweetest little girl I have ever met and she is usually ready to tell me a whole bunch of stories, I love every second of it! We always get a lot of fun birthday photos with her, some smiling, some goofy and some of her just having fun running around. It really is the perfect combination of photos of my time with her. So here are a few of my favorites from her 5th birthday session!

The Logel Family | Portland, MI family Photos
I was so excited to meet up with the Logel Family this month! It has been a couple years since their last family photo so it was time for an update! We met in downtown Portland, Michigan at the Opera Block. This location is under construction but the owner let us sneak in to a couple of the completed areas for some awesome family portraits. Here are a few of my favorites from my session with the Logel Family!

The Guernsey Family | Ionia, Michigan Family Photography

This year we were able to strike that one off our list with some amazing photos on the most beautiful fall day! Here are a few of my favorites from my time with the Guernseys!

The Barr Family | Portland, MI Family Photos
The morning I met up with the Barr Family was a cold 30-something degrees, it was cold! It was almost like mother nature turned off her heat switch. They were just hoping for a quick session with an updated photo anyway and because it was so cold they decided a quick 10 minute session sounded just perfect! It really is amazing how many photos you can get in 10 minutes! Here are just a couple highlights!

The Bos Family | Portland, MI Family Photographer
I first met this lovely family a couple years ago just after little Melody joined the family. Since that time, all of the kids have grown so much! I am so happy they asked me to update their photos. It truly is amazing how quickly kids change. You may not realize it day to day but when you look back at your photos you really can tell a difference! Here are a few of my favorites from the Bos Family (rainy day) session!

James | Portland, Michigan Senior Photos
My first session with James was rescheduled due to rain but we ended up rescheduling for the most perfect fall day! There is nothing better than a good fall day in Michigan to capture senior portraits and he really lucked out weather wise! We made a few stops around our hometown, Portland, to grab some amazing photos. Here are a few of my favorites from his session!

The Reay Family | Portland, Mi Family Photography
The Reay Family needed updated photos so we planned ahead and planned for an October session. The day their session came around it had gotten so chilly in Michigan, it was like the heat switch turned off all the sudden! Because of the chilly weather and impending rain, we spent just a short time together, worked fast and got some great images. Here are a few of my favorites from my time with them!

The Smith Siblings | Portland, MI Sports Photos
I was so happy to get these siblings together for these photos. It has been a while, but a while back their mom mentioned to me that she really wanted to get photos of all of her kids in their sports jerseys. This fall is the last season that she will have this opportunity when they are all in sports at the same time. And even though they are extremely busy going all over for games, they still made time to capture these moments. Way to go Smith Family for recognizing that this is the pause you needed to take to capture these moments!

The Nurenberg Family | Portland, MI Extended Family Photos
It turned out to be a cold foggy morning in Michigan on the day of the Nurenberg family session, but that made for some interesting photos! This group was happy to get together and get their extended family photos done, but while we were there, we also took the opportunity to update each individual families photos as well. Here are a few of my favorites from their session!

Caleb | Westphalia, Michigan Senior Pictures
Caleb chose the most perfect fall evening for his senior session and had the perfect location in mind for his pictures. He wanted to incorporate hunting into his photos, so it only seemed right that his photos take place near the woods. His family friend just happened to have the most perfect location for this and I am so happy we were able to utilize the space! Here are a few of my favorites from my time with Caleb.

Lindsey | Grand Ledge, MI Senior Portraits
The morning I met up with Lindsey was a typical chilly fall morning in Michigan. She was all in and didn’t let that stop her from getting some amazing senior photos at her farm in Westphalia, Michigan and at Fitzgerald Park in Grand Ledge! We got so much variety during this session and I love it all! Lindsey did so well, I just don’t know how she is going to choose her favorites. Here are a couple highlights from her time with me.

Lily | Portland, MI Senior Photos
Lily is such a natural in front of the camera, so when she said she wasn’t good at taking photos, I honestly do not know what she is talking about! This girl was everything! Our session was during some drizzle (typical Michigan weather) but Lily did not let that bother her. She brought all sorts of fire to her session! Here are a few of my favorites from her session!
