A Classic September Wedding at the Detroit Yacht Club September might just be my favorite time to photograph a wedding at the Detroit Yacht Club. The summer crowds on Belle Isle begin to settle down, the weather is comfortable, and the light over the Detroit River becomes incredibly soft in the evening. Paired with the […]

If you’re looking for classic Ann Arbor engagement photo locations, the combination of the Clements Library and the Peony Garden provide just that. Together, they offer two completely different looks within a short driving distance—elegant architecture followed by lush spring blooms. For this session, we originally planned to photograph at the Law Quad, but ongoing […]

Spring graduation sessions at Michigan State University just have a different feel to them. The flowering trees around campus, the ivy turning green again, and the mix of softer colors everywhere make photos feel lighter and more alive compared to other times of year. If you’re hoping for magnolia trees, tulips, and peak spring color […]

Sarah and Nick were married at the new Book Tower wedding venue in downtown Detroit. They had the most beautiful spring day, everything ran on time, and they were the most laid back couple, enjoying every moment of the day. Their ceremony took place at the historic St. Anne de Detroit, and we captured some […]

When I set out to photograph a wedding, I am not just shooting to shoot. Or shooting to provide a few good profile photos. I am shooting to tell a story- the story of a momentous day in a couple’s lives. Increasingly, when I chat with couples in initial consultations, we talk not only about […]

A long time ago, I used to have a studio and photograph newborns in baskets and props. We would try for hours to get newborn babies to sleep and snuggle perfectly for photos. But after awhile, it felt mean! A baby, just days old, being crammed into a bowl or other prop just didn’t sit […]

One way couples can do that, is by choosing a venue where everything can be held in one location- getting ready, portraits, ceremony, and reception. The Saint John’s Resort in […]

Lifestyle newborn sessions are some of my favorite big life moments to capture. The wrinkly skin, the tiny toes, the little puckered lips…newborns are just so squishy and cute. Lifestyle sessions just feel better- there is no cramming a baby in a basket, no trying to get them to sleep for hours, we just let […]

Grad sessions are so much fun, but here are some tips to help your photo session go more smoothly! Before your session, make sure to iron your gown! Wrinkled gowns are pretty noticeable in photos, so make sure to spend 10 minutes ironing it beforehand. Your photographer will not photoshop out any wrinkles. Pick up […]

Clare and Eric were my first wedding of 2022! With the wedding boom that is 2021-2022, I’ve gotten to photograph at many new venues, and it was my first time shooting at the Lafayette Grande in Pontiac, MI! I absolutely loved the architecture inside and out, the brightness of the space, the chandeliers, large staircase […]
