Not that I don’t love Grand Rapids- I do…but when you’re looking for different places to shoot and the per capita of photographers here…well, that doesn’t leave much! So Chicago – as well as many other cities…put me into visual overload and I love every minute of it! So when Kristen wanted a Trash the Dress session…(aka-”you spent way to damn much on that dress to only wear it once” session I immediately volunteered to shoot in Chicago where she lives!! You can see we found fabulous locations and yummy light ….an afternoon of perfecta for Kristen’s dynamite modeling skillz….enjoy a taste of my favorites ~

ps…you CAN’T miss all her fabulous shoes….even on the taxi!

Here is her SLIDESHOW **CLICK HERE**

I adore Abby and her family. Her daughters are adorable. We first met when she attended my FIRST paid wedding….(James & Lisa) and then called me for portrait work. They live in Auburn Hills, and we have done a few sessions here in GR as my studios change, and have done a few on their side of the state. This may be my favorite yet! I think you’re still in Disney World…but here is your preview!

There are still mini sessions at my studio available…it can be family, your kids, anniversary session, belly session….

If you just have to have more time than that…please let me know so we can get your session scheduled ASAP. Any session scheduled after Thanksgiving will not be able to get any prints or digital negative before Christmas….

If you loved my last session…but wanted a little more edge…this is the family. Heather tells me on the phone “I am going to wear my hair all messy and bring a corset and a bright cocktail dress…” ..and I said….”I’m IN!!!” Their little man had sweet leather bomber jacket he was going to wear shirtless, but it was a bit hot, so we left it off! I had so much fun shooting in Florida, there are so many bright walls and color everywhere. Here are a few of my faves!

seriously—need I say more?? love the clothes, love the locations, love that the kids can pull of some great model faces You guys are hot!!! ps…beth is a local photog too, so she was right on with her clothing choices and letting me sneak her fam into some sweet new places!

Here are a just a few faves….
