Ava - One Year Session | Grand Rapids, MI Children's Photographer

On Friday I met up with little Ava and her mommy. Ava had turned one the day before and she sure acted like a big girl at her session. Despite the heat at 9am, she hung in there and smiled for the camera.

Look at the toes!! This little girl is very stylish with her pink polish!

Accessories are a must.

Amy & Steve ~ Married | Michigan Wedding Photographer

Amy and Steve were married on a beautiful June day. Their family and friends were wonderful and I think the speech Amy's dad gave was one of the best I have heard so far.

We wish you both the best!

I'm busy editing weddings right now, but I couldn't help but share one image from my maternity session with Tracie.

Gorgeous.



I will be posting more soon, including the daddy to be!

This session was a little bit ago, but I couldn't resist posting a few of the images. These two little ones are so cute!

Melody & Eric ~ Married | Grand Rapids, MI Wedding Photographer

On June 12, Eric and Melody were married at the Post Family Farm. It was a beautiful day, wonderful location, and a fantastic couple.

Eric and Melody chose to do the first look, this is when the Bride and Groom see each other before the ceremony. I love it when couples choose to do this. It makes the day go just a little bit smoother.
