Peggy owns and operates a daycare with her daughter in Reed City, and she spends most of her time taking care of others. This photo shoot was a chance for her to be pampered and to take care of herself. She deserves it, and although she was hesitant about the makeover and photo shoot, she […]

I met Jessica at a girls night out event a few months ago, and I loved her bubbly personality immediately. When she later contacted me for a session, I knew it would be a great time. Her laugh is contagious, and we laughed a lot that day. Thanks for a great time Jessica. I enjoyed […]

The women received personalized Mary Kay makeup instruction by Nancy Brocker, hair touch up by Ann Ball Davis, nail polish/nail art by Amanda Jankowski, […]

I have photographed a few sessions at the Mitchell residence, but this year there were lots of new things to document. I photographed their newly built home that overlooks a gorgeous pond, complete with beach area and custom chairs designed and painted by Brandi (who I think resembles Martha Stewart – in a good way).

I photographed these two families about two years ago, so I was excited to be able to photograph them again this Fall.  It was a gorgeous day in a beautiful location with a great bunch of people.  This time they included their dog in the session – a very well behaved dog might I add.  For […]

Mike and Christa wanted to update their family photos.  Like many families, they wanted their photos to include the gorgeous Fall colors we enjoy here in Michigan.  This was my favorite – and one of the first – images from the session.  They also chose this image for a large canvas for their home. After photographing […]

These three kiddos were such a joy to photograph.  They are adorable and photogenic!  Andrew enjoys soccer and Dakota and Cathren love to dance.  Here are just a few of the images from their session.
