Michigan Newborn Portrait Photographer

I’d like to introduce Little Miss Charlotte Elloise to you! Our third child and little sister to Ethan and Ellise was born on Feb 15th – NOT Valentine’s Day and NOT even on her duedate – Miss Charlotte did it her own way and in her own time and made us wait several days past my duedate for her arrival. It was worth every minute!

They say you never know how much love you actually have to give until you’re holding your newborn for the first time. Love at first sight is an understatement of gigantic proportions. You’re looking at your future, ten little toes and ten little fingers, a pouty little lip and eyes that stare back at you melting your heart. You know from that moment you will love and protect this little bundle with every fiber of your being… forever! And to see her big brother and sister kiss her and hold her is beyond words! Welcome to our world Charlotte – we can’t imagine a day you weren’t already in our hearts and in our arms.


Wedding Albums

I remember last year saying I added new albums and was going to put them here on the blog, and guess what? That never happened! So here they are now. The best part of procrastinating is that now I’ve been offering them and carrying them for a year and they look as gorgeous as the first day they came in! Truly standing the test of durability of client meetings at Starbucks!

The swatch list will blow you away, these are only a small sample of some of the albums that have come in and that I use as my promo albums. From leopard print (yes, I said that) to wood … from every color leather or fabric pattern you can imagine… mystery glass covers, photo covers, canvas photo covers and metallic photo covers… these albums are designed to be as custom and one of a kind as you and your wedding will be! Don’t worry, I offer some guidance in helping you navigate through the swatch list and helping you pair leathers, fabrics, cameos and photo covers so you get exactly what you dream up!

There are weddings that stick with you, inspire  you and remind you just why you love what you do so much! Hannah and Jeffrey’s wedding was just that . It was as if everywhere I turned there was a beautiful backdrop or light that was just too gorgeous for words. Their family, their friends, their venues – pitch perfect and flawless. Everyone and everything fell together to create this storybook wedding day that made Crystal and I leave with giant smiles on our faces and a renewed sense of what it’s all about – LOVE!

Crystal, for those of you who don’t know already, is my assistant photographer and to be honest I am absolutely beyond words thrilled to have her with me at weddings. She will be coming back next year as well and I’m excited to see what we do together! I brought her on this year as an equipment assistant  and she definitely impressed her way right out of ‘just carrying bags’ to carrying a camera. I love having a second set of eyes and hands to make the most of every minute we have at a wedding.

Wow! What a year – It’s no secret I’m probably the WORST blogger on the face of the internet. I’ve done a decent job of keeping up on facebook but blogging is not my strength. I am beyond envious of photographers that have time to post daily but to be honest, there just aren’t enough hours in the day!

Here are just a few from some of the wonderful clients I’ve been fortunate enough to work with throughout the year. Really just a small handful – I will try to post more over the next few weeks before full blown wedding season hits again!

So I have a Saturday off! Of course you can find me sitting at my computer desk ‘working away’ but I can’t let being a dedicated workaholic take all the credit. I’m hiding. My house is full of 5 children ages 4-9. Children I love dearly and cousins to my two but seriously, WHO thought inviting them all over at once was a good idea?

In the last hour there has been hysterical laughs, yelling, dancing, arguing, name calling, singing and crying. And that’s only what I’ve been doing!

I have decided to escape and find solitude in Elizabeth and Matt’s wedding which I will be calling from this moment on “My Happy Place!”

I also have some other news (ok, now I am really just trying to find more things to write about so I don’t have to go ‘out there’ — they’re starting to get hungry and someone has to feed them… I’m scared!)

My new line of wedding albums is in! Pictures (obviously) are coming but all I can say is WOW!! I am so in love with them and can’t wait to take them to my meetings next week. Although I’m going to have a hard time letting people actually touch them! I’ve considered white gloves!!

Ok, I gotta go… I think they’ve taken my husband….
