Finally a sneak peak for Jordan and Becky! I had a great time at Jordan and Becky's wedding. They had a beautiful day for a wedding. My favorite part of the wedding, was seeing how in love Becky and Jordan were. Every time they looked at each other they both just beamed! It was just so sweet. The reception was so much fun. They had dueling pianos for the entertainment. It was a great time, so many people were dancing. And the guys from Aces Wild Entertainment were awesome!! Joe and Nate, you are so incredibly talented! It was also fun to work with Paul and Pam Martin from Martin Video again. Becky, I have to say, your new husband sure can dance! Congratulations to the both of you. Thanks for letting me capture this special day for you, it was an honor.

Kyan...

My first senior girl for the year. I just love, love, love doing senior sessions! They are so much fun! Kyan told me she didn't photograph well, whatever! lol I think I proved her wrong ;) We went all over and got some great pictures. We even shot into the dark. I broke out the off camera flash. I am new to this and they were extremely patient. When we got back to the Thelen's, Charlie was in the field and luckily hadn't taken down all the wheat. So we rush by him and started shooting before it got too dark. Thanks for choosing me to take your senior portraits Kyan!!

Cutest Kid Contest Winner....

Dee Dee was the winner of the cutest kid contest!! So she is the lucky winner of an awesome package!! We went to the MSU gardens bright and early last week, but the heat was still terrible. But the kids still did great. Congrats on your win!

Hanses family...

Another big Westphalia family picture! I am always nervous about taking a large families photo's but when everyone cooperates it goes quite fast. I love the picture of all the grandkids in and around the tree. I bet it seems like just yesterday that they were little, climbing that same tree! Thanks for asking me to photograph your beautiful family!

Will and Madeleine...

Erica was a little worried that the kids wouldn't cooperate, but they did fantastic!! Will even said after about 5 minutes, "This is fun Mom!" Yeah!! That is just what I wanted to hear. We got some great pictures of the kids and I am all done editing them :) Erica and Brian...you have 2 beautiful kids, thanks for letting me have the honor of photographing them!

Happy Birthday Janet....

Janet is a lucky Grandmother! For her birthday she is getting a portrait of herself with all of her beautiful grandchildren. And boy are they beautiful! Each of the kids are just gorgeous! I loved the outfits they choose with the jeans, white shirts bare feet, super casual and so cute. I hope every time you look at your portrait, you are reminded of how blessed you are. Happy birthday Janet!!

Kenny....

It is that time of year again, the start of senior sessions! I think seniors are my absolute favorites. Kenny was my first senior of the year, with many more coming up. We took Kenny to St. Johns to do some urban shots then to the park. I tried to make it as quick and painless as I could. lol I am booking up quickly for senior sessions, if you are interested in booking do so as soon as possible!

Beach time....

I love taking pictures on the beach! Unfortunately everyone in Michigan also thought the beach was the place to be Sunday night too! But we found a few quiet spots to get some shots of the kids. They did awesome. I was so impressed with how well they sat, when they really just wanted to be running and playing on the beach. Thanks Holly and Adam for giving me the honor of shooting your beautiful family! Next time I bet there will be one more little one in the shot :)

Addie and Will....

We bumped up the session by a bit, because it was suppose to storm. The light was perfect, so I am glad we did. I will have to keep in mind to shoot before a storm again ;) I couldn't believe how good Addie and Will did for being only 2 and 3 (almost 4)!! They are both just the sweetest things. Thanks for letting me take your beautiful kiddo's pictures Katie and Jon!!

This is what you get when you ask a 3 year old to open her eyes a little bit. lol
