Downtown Sibling Session

Last week I met up with Jennifer and her three gorgeous kiddos in downtown Mt. Pleasant for a sibling shoot. Have I mentioned before I much I love urban sessions? Just love the color and textures that can be found downtown. Jennifer came from Grand Rapids to have me take the kids' photos and I can't tell you how flattered I am that you would travel that far for my services. All of your kids are so incredibly beautiful! Yes, even the boys, they are absolutely beautiful boys. Here are a few of my favorites...




 

This one really makes me smile... shows a little bit of all their personalities. :)
 

So pretty.
 

Little hunk.
 

Future heartbreaker.
Last week I had another session with a beautiful Beal City Senior. These girls are keeping me busy and I love it. Sarah showed up with some great outfits/accessories and a FUN personality. I knew we were going to have a great time and get some great pics. Hope you enjoy your peek Sarah, your proof book is on the way! :)

Beautiful expectant mom + family

Last week I met up with mom-to-be Annie, her husband and adorable 4 year old son. This little family is growing soon, adding a precious baby girl in October. Such a pleasure to be a part of this exciting time for a family as they anticipate the arrival of a new baby. Thanks so much for letting me freeze this moment in time for you. :)

Hehe, Carson wanted to tie the ribbon on his belly too. :)

These last two were already posted on facebook, but are blog worthy for sure. I remember being pregnant with my children and not feeling attractive AT ALL. I was not one of those glowing pregnant ladies and avoided any camera at all costs.  My goal in my maternity sessions is to make the mom-to-be feel BEAUTIFUL, no matter what they are thinking when they look in the mirror. Annie, I hope you look at these pictures and feel beautiful. Because really, you are stunning!

A couple weeks ago I had another extended family session. We had "Mom and Dad H", plus their 4 children and 8 1/2 grandchildren (one on the way!). I admit that I get a little intimidated photographing such large families. Coming up with posing and creative ideas for this many people is not easy for me. And getting that many eyes all looking at you at the same time is a challenge for sure! But what a great family this was to work with. The kids were all so cooperative and well behaved. I had a lot of fun and think it went really well!  Thanks so much for asking me to capture this moment in time for your family!

Tori - 2011 Beal City Senior

Tori is my second of 3 Beal City Seniors in August. I think this girl needs to sign up for the next America's Next Top Model season. She's got the look for sure... long limbs and gorgeous eyes with lashes a mile long. When you make it to the top, don't forget about your senior pic photographer who started it all for you Tori... ;)  Such a pleasure to capture this exciting time in your life. Hope you have a great Senior year!!
