School is in session and we couldn’t be happier with the group of seniors we have photographed so far from the class of 2013! These young people are so inspiring and we hope you are inspired by these images. This is a huge year for these kids (not to mention their parents) – like the first big step on the yellow brick road of their adult lives with all the promise, excitement and adventure of a future that is laid […]
Remember this little angel face??? Well, she’s back from gracing our brochures and is now a big girl!!! She just turned two and was STILL such a blast to work with! Since little Miss H was born, she’s been a fun one to photograph. This time, she was all on her own schedule. She was absolutely adorable and kept Ally moving (because Ally LOVES H, she totally didn’t mind chasing after her!). We were able to get a bunch […]
Blog posts are supposed to be short and sweet but I have a bunch of thoughts and this one will be a little longer… Last week I had the experience of interviewing an elderly lady for her nieces who wanted to preserve her life story for future generations. What an incredible experience that was. It was incredible for me for many reasons. For starters I felt what I was doing was really important and humbling. This lady no longer has […]
You might recognize this little one. She and her family have been around the studio for quite awhile now. When we first met “E”‘s parents, they were having her big brother photographed for his newborn session. That was two years ago. Since that time, well, we’ve sort of adopted the S family. Or they adopted us. When we found out that E’s mom was pregnant again, she gave us the ultimate compliment. Aside from asking us to photograph her belly […]
You’ve heard the saying “Boys will be boys”? These guys were no exception! But they were completely and totally adorable! Lots of laughs and LOTS of personality! Mom was a bit worried that we wouldn’t “get anything good” from this session and she warned us before the session that the boys might give us a hard time. But since we’re complete “professionals,” we were able to get some awesome expressions! You know how we do it… silly words and of […]
If you’ve ever met Doug, you’ll know that he’s a total music freak. There are very few people our age that can even come close to his eclectic tastes and can have the level of music knowledge to have a conversation about it. And then came these guys….. When we met “M”, we knew that she was an exceptionally cool, down-to-earth girl. Then when we had the photo session and she came in with bags, yes BAGS, of clothes for […]
What a fun family to be able to photograph! From the moment we met S, we knew it was going to be a fun one! There are lots of fun stories that have come out of this session, and when we say that we laughed and laughed…we really did! C and S are some seriously amazing sisters with an amazing dad. Brilliant, beautiful and so freakin’ funny!!! This family kept Ally on her toes with their fun antics, awesome […]
We ordered up a perfect day for this session with a family we’ve known for a long long time, and it was a blast! The boys had a lot of fun clowning around (which provided for some hilarious outtakes) and we had so much fun photographing them. We were actually the first people to randomly bump into them on an Ann Arbor sidewalk minutes after they got engaged years ago, and now they are a complete family!
I am all about practicing proper etiquette online. I am also all about being truthful. Somewhere in between I find it can get a little blurry. Trolls There has been much written about “trolls” – the Wikipedia definition of a troll is as follows: In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic […]
We met the G family relatively recently when their oldest son became friends with our little guy. The boys became friends and then we followed suit pretty quickly afterwards! It’s been kind of a whirlwind, really. You know how there are people who once you connect with them, it’s like you’ve always known them and been friends with them? Yeah, that’s us and these guys! R had mentioned that she’d really like a nice new updated family photo and some […]
