Abigail’s downtown fall senior session in Grand Rapids was nothing short of magical! I’ve known her mom, Jenna, for about seven years, so seeing Abigail all grown up felt surreal. When I first met her, she was just a little girl in grade school. Now, she’s a stylish and confident high schooler, ready to take […]

I’m always excited to reconnect with families I’ve photographed before, and this Spring Grove Park family session with Ashley’s family was no exception. After capturing Ashley and Charlie’s beautiful wedding last year, I was thrilled to be invited back for another special session. This time, Ashley’s mom received a family session as a birthday gift […]

Jacob’s senior portrait session in the vibrant heart of downtown Grand Rapids was a thrilling urban adventure! We chose a Tuesday evening for our shoot, thinking it would be less crowded than on a weekend, but downtown was buzzing with activity thanks to a concert at Van Andel Arena. The city was packed, making it […]

Yep, that’s the magic I had the […]

Ok, last night’s Lowell senior session was a photographer’s dream! Great clients. Absolutely perfect summer evening. Beautiful golden hour. I’m just thrilled to share all of my favorites of Miss Mael, a senior from Rockford High School.
