Jackson Family | Harrison Twp., MI

I had been wanting to shoot an early morning beach session and was thrilled when the Jackson Family was up for it. I had photographed this family several times in the past and they have become one of my favorite families to photograph. We met at the beach at 7am and it was pretty chilly out! The twins were still kind of sleeping, lol, because it was so early. They soon perked up and had a lot of fun with the session and on the beach. Mom is pregnant and due in October but doesn't know the sex of the baby....but Dad does know! I thought that was pretty cool, though personally, it would drive me crazy to not know! lol So here are some of my favorite images from our early morning beach session :) Comment are always appreciated and if you'd like to book a beach session, contact me and we'll set it up! 

Beach Fun Photo Challenge [iheartfaces]

This weeks challenge on iheartfaces is the beach fun theme! How can you not have fun at the beach?! I love it and wished I lived ON a beach. Well, maybe not year-round, but during the summer would be nice! My entry into the contest features my daughter jumping into the lake. My aunt and uncle have a beautiful place up-north right on the beach. The kids love to be able to walk out the door and they're at the beach where they can swim, fish, and just hang out. It's a hike to get there (an over four hour long car drive) so we don't get up there as often as we'd like. When we are there, we enjoy it immensely and most of the time is spent, you guess it, on the beach!

Waterford Michigan Wedding Photographer

I was honored to be asked to shoot the wedding of E & J. They are good friends of mine and they make a really great couple. Though it was overcast, not a drop of rain was to be seen. The ceremony was just beautiful.
