Mini Session: Alyssa & Hope (Mid Michigan Children's Photographer)

October 2, 2015

These little ladies are so adorable. They've gotten so big since the last time I saw them. They are a lot bigger but still two awesome little girls. Alyssa is still such a sweet young lady. She wanted to hold my hand each time we walked to the spots to photograph. I was happy to oblige. The poor girl was having trouble with her allergies but she was a champ. Miss Hope is such an awesome little lady herself. She's definitely got a lot of personality. It was great to see Matt and Rosanna too (we went to high school together ever so long ago) and spend some time with this wonderful little family.

^The family dog was up for one pose ;)

^The barn cats were wondering what we were up to.

^She's a great subject!

^Sweet Alyssa!

^The girls :)

^It's not a fall session without pumpkins!

^These two are awesome. Thanks for another fun session!

Mini Session: Logan & Alex (Mid Michigan Portrait Photographer)

October 2, 2015

These guys are growing up right in front of my eyes. They've been having their photos with me for a few years now! First of all, we met at the apple orchard, then we went to a family farm, and last year they did my mini sessions. This year, as usual, I let them help me find a few cool spots, as they would know, we were at their grandparents' house! What a great place for photos. Thanks, as always, to Logan, Alex, and their mom, Erica, for a great session!

^They are definitely growing up!

^Love this shot even more every time time look at it.

^And I STILL love this pose!

^Gotta sneak a little bit of fall in there!

^Awesome brothers, perfect subjects!

Mini Session: Mia (West Michigan Children's Photographer)

October 12, 2015

You remember little Mia, right? She was not the happiest camper for most of her last session (though she still smiled pretty for me a few times!) so I stopped back by at her "home turf" to get a few more quick shots for her gallery. She was much happier to see me this time! Here are the new shots of this pretty girl.

^Yay! Happy baby!

^She knows who to root for ;)

^Just hanging out in the flowers. No big deal.

^YES! Good work, Mia!

Tory & Krysten: Engaged! (Mid Michigan Wedding Photographer)

October 3, 2015

The only thing this session needed was a cup of hot cocoa! Tory and Krysten were prepared for the breezy, cool weather of early October with sweaters and some flannel. Absolutely perfect. We braved the winds at the Harrison State Park (where Krysten used to work) and even got close to the lake for a few shots. Afterwards, we made sure to run to her parents' house for a few photos by the "picture rock". Seems fitting, as it IS a family tradition! Their next session will be much warmer, as they are tying the knot in July next year. Can't wait to be a part of their big day!

^So adorable!

^Very nice ring!!!

^Keeping cozy on a BREEZY day!

^This one has to be one of my favorites.

^Save the date :)

^I love these "real" moments! Tory's a funny guy!

^The infamous picture rock :) 

^Another favorite.

^What's a fall session without some pumpkins? Thanks for humoring me, guys!
