our most recent work

It took awhile, but fall finally appeared! It was about two-three weeks behind this year! Abbey and Nathaniel had originally scheduled a beach session in Holland, but due to a super rainy and cold weather, ended up holding out for fall photos instead, and I’m so glad they did….I think their engagement photos turned out […]

It’s that time of year again! Fall means Christmas card and gift giving season are gearing up, so if fall colors, scarves, apple orchards, and boots are your thing and you need holiday cards and gifts, the time is now to reach out and schedule. Availability (especially weekends!) is limited! This year I’ll be offering […]

Eberly + Taylor planned the most stress free wedding day! They did a first look and the majority of their portraits prior to the ceremony, and then had an hour gap in between the ceremony and reception which gave everyone a bit of time to relax before finishing the portraits during cocktail hour. Nothing felt […]

Ashley + Keith were married on the most beautiful fall day at the Belle Mer Island House in Newport, Rhode Island. The weather was a gorgeous 71 degrees, sunny, and humidity free….a stark contrast to their engagement shoot, held exactly one year to the day prior, and foggy and chilly! I loved everything about this […]

Annie + Austin’s wedding was a dream! They got ready at the Dearborn Inn, had their ceremony at a church in downtown Detroit, and had their reception at Lovett Hall at the Henry Ford in Dearborn, MI. Annie purchased her dream gown at Kleinfeld Bridal in New York, and chose a dress inspired by Kate […]

Since Annie and Austin both attended MSU and even got engaged on Michigan State’s campus, it was only fitting for them to have their engagement photos taken there. We started at the arboretum and then made our way over to Beaumont Tower. I love how these turned out, and can’t wait until their wedding at […]

Meghan and Andy were married on the most beautiful June day! I was mid-seventies, no humidity, with beautiful blue skies and a light breeze. They held their wedding ceremony at the Stone Chapel at St Hugo in Bloomfield Hills and had their reception at the Birmingham Country Club in Birmingham, Michigan. They actually met at […]

Southern Exposure Herb Farm might possibly be one of the most gorgeous properties that I have ever photographed at! It was beautifully rustic, with well cared for grounds and stunning florals. There were greenhouses and antiques and chandeliers. I mean, to say it was a photographer’s dream is an understatement. Funny enough, neither Michael and […]

So, I found a new favorite place to shoot! The MSU Arboretum has so many great spots for photos including a stunning English garden! I can’t believe that I lived in East Lansing for 10 years AND attended MSU as a student, and had no idea the Arboretum existed! I even frequently visited the Children’s […]

Allison and Mark were married on the most gorgeous June day! Continuing my good luck with weddings this season, it was sunny and warm even though there had been a threat of a thunderstorm earlier in the week.  I started off the day photographing Allison getting ready at her and Mark’s newly purchased in East […]
