Downtown Detroit & Belle Isle Engagement Session

A little more than a week ago, Jeff and I had the great pleasure of capturing our cousin’s engagement portraits in the beautiful scenery of Belle Isle and Downtown Detroit. We first got to know them better at a coffee shop a few weeks prior, as we planned out their engagement photos. We learned that Anthony loves Captain America and that Rebecca simply enjoys spending time with Anthony. They are truly an adorable couple and we wish them all the best! Read on below to see the artistic portraits from this amazing engagement session!

Spencer’s 10 Month Session – Lifestyle Shoot

Spencer is growing up so very fast! This was his 10 month session, and soon, we will be photographing his 11 month session! Not having children of our own, we never truly realized just how fast children grow, especially within the first year. We have been extremely blessed with the opportunity Spencer’s parents have bestowed upon us, to watch their precious baby boy grow from month to month. Share in the awe with us and check out Spencer’s progress below!

Spencer’s 9 Month Old Session

If you’ve been wondering why this handsome fella is featured on our blog so much… Well, that’s because, for the last 9 months we have had the pleasure of visiting him on a monthly basis to capture his growth. It’s hard to believe that it is so quickly approaching his first birthday. We’re sure going to miss our monthly visits once he arrives at one year of age. One thing I’ll say though, it really is amazing how fast he is growing and learning! Take a look at the portraits below and you’ll see that Spencer is turning out to be quite the handsome young gentleman! He was quite active and smiley for this particular lifestyle session. Though, he typically is all smiles though (except for month 8 lol), especially as he gets older and responds more to our silly faces and the sound of his mother’s voice.

Warning – Easter Mini Session with Live Animals

It’s that wonderful time of the year again, where Spring is around the corner, and warmer days are ahead. It’s the perfect time to start thinking about portraits for you and your little ones. However, there is one thing that is becoming popular with novice photographers to get clients into their doors: an Easter Mini Session, with a live animal. Read more below to learn of the reasons why we do not offer these types of sessions, and help us to save the lives of countless baby animals typically used in these sessions.

Family Portrait Session at the Henry Ford Museum

A couple of weeks back, we had the pleasure of photographing this adorable family at the ever popular, Henry Ford Museum. Normally, we photograph their little girls every six months, and we have been photographing their newest addition every month for the last eight months. But this time, at the behest of the husband, we turned this sister’s session, into a full family portrait session. Please enjoy a small sampling of the photos we were able to capture below! And of course, if you are looking for relaxed and stunning portraits for your family, contact us and let us know!
