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 […]

The MSU campus is the most stunning back drop for photos in Mid-Michigan. The Horticulture Gardens are a favorite of mine! This was the third time I photographed these two- first at their engagement session, second at their wedding, and this time for their maternity session! It is always so special and humbling to be […]

It’s been the most incredible thing, having my wedding couples turn into family clients. I have photographed this family for years now- first their engagement, then their wedding, Baby D’s newborn and one year photos, and now maternity and newborn photos for little brother. I loved the vision this family had- light and airy, some […]

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 […]

These three are graduating in December, so instead of waiting until the snow fell and the bitter cold set in they decided to have their session in fall. We had a ridiculously warm fall day so there was no shivering in little white dresses happening. Bonus of doing a grad session in fall? NO LINES! […]

When I graduated, graduation photos weren’t a thing, and I so wish they had been! It’s such an amazing life milestone to graduate from college, and it should be celebrated and captured! I would have loved to have photos like these to look back on as an adult far removed from college. What a fun […]

My first full time week back from maternity leave has been a busy one with 6 portrait shoots, multiple wedding consults, an album design, timelines and now, gearing up for the first wedding of the year and 5 more portrait shoots! I am thrilled to be back and connecting with clients old and new! It […]

When Julian’s babysitter asked if I could take graduation photos of her and her friends at Michigan State University, of course I said yes! Even though over the weekend it had been 82 degrees, just two days later we were dealt 32 degrees, high winds and even snow! It was seriously crazy. We started at […]

Fall mini session day in East Lansing on the MSU campus was a success!! And can you believe it was 75 degrees on a Michigan November afternoon?! It was crazy! I love the MSU gardens in all seasons, and they did not disappoint! Even in the second week of November, there were still trees with […]

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 […]
