“Hey it’s Helene!” is what we said when she showed up with her mom and little sister to talk about booking a senior photo session with us. We have known her since she was little, and anytime we photograph a senior we have known since she was little it’s a surreal day for us… Helene isn’t supposed to be this beautiful high school senior yet. Time is certainly flying by and maybe we are getting old! But this isn’t about […]
Sara in the city was a big hit! Senior season is in full gear and we are photographing the class of 2015 pretty much non stop at this point. We will have plenty more of these posts coming up as we are able to churn them out, and we are thrilled to bring you photos from this fantastic city session with Sara! But before we go out to light up the night let’s start back at the beginning of the […]
One year olds love… veggie sticks??? More on that in a minute… Yes we had two of our favorite brothers back again for younger brother’s one year old photos and older brother’s four year old photos, and we planned a cake smash as we often do to celebrate and capture a first birthday. Meanwhile we have been photographing these guys since before the older brother was born with maternity photos when he was in utero! We are always excited to […]
Alesha leads the way for the class of 2015 with these photos from her spectacular senior session! You already saw 14 members of this class as spokesmodels and those are “our” sessions where we test out new ideas. We wrapped those up and now going forward the class of 2015 sessions belong to the seniors! As for Alesha we have become very big fans of this girl in a very short time and we were very excited to photograph her. […]
Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore is an incredible place, and if you haven’t been there I highly recommend making the trip. We are huge fans of our National Parks and this one is only a little more than 4 hours from West Bloomfield, Michigan where we live depending on traffic. We were able to get away for the holiday weekend with our kids and we went “Up North” which is where many Metro Detroiters go during the summer to relax. […]
A beautiful little girl on a warm summer day….and a cake SMASH is the best combination! We were thrilled to welcome this little princess back to the studio after she was here with her big brother as a flower pot for her six month milestone! Maybe you remember the post about the Dapper Dude and Baby Blossom? This time around we celebrated her birthday in style! We had a solid two hour window in the morning before her nap and […]
Such a cute smiley shmushy boy was here with his parents recently! That’s really the only way I can describe him. Okay I guess you could use sweet and squishy too – any way you put it he was awesome and his parents were really nice too. We had a lot of fun – lots of laughing and lots of Spanish too! Ally just wanted to eat him right up. See what I mean? Love this kid! You can really […]
Siblings bubbles and flowers can’t possibly be anything but pure wonderful right? Right! You may remember a post from back in December where we presented a family that was growing “right before our eyes” with maternity photos followed by the beautiful new little baby with her family? Well they are back and a lot can happen in 6 months… 🙂 Yes indeed babies bloom! We love our little 6 month flower pot babies. This little one was one of the […]
It seems that you should care about Google Plus and now the new “Google My Business” after all, especially if you are a small business owner. Google’s social media network (they prefer to call it a “layer”) has been around since June of 2011. Google Plus is not as popular as Facebook but it’s still Google and it’s not going anywhere. Does this mean you have to participate and get immersed in yet another social media platform? Not quite. However, […]
A family session with four at five and under can pose a challenge on paper no doubt, and Ally loves a challenge! Of course we do a lot of planning and take plenty of time to make sure we get the photos we need, and when the kids are well behaved and cooperative that certainly helps. There is a fine line however – “well-behaved” at a young age can mean “not allowed to be kids and have fun” if you’re […]
