FAMILY FALL FUN

Grand Rapids, MI

The Bumgardner Family! My lovely gal pal, Kathryn, was looking for the shiny-happy-faces-Christmas- card, but I just couldn't stop there. While we were waiting for pizza and wine, we headed out to the park for a brief-and cold!- very, very mini-session, before the dark settled in.

November family time is so warming, with the leaves, brisk fall nights, blankets, and red noses! This family is the cutest, but also always hilarious. Always animated, I am always entertained at the Bumgardner house!

Thanks for dinner and the vino, friend... ;)

Riverside Park Doggy Session

Grand Rapids, MI

Here's to my wonderful friend, Carleen, and her kiddo, Mojo. We are praying for Mojo's health and wanted to document their close relationship another year. In case you missed their last session, you can catch it here:

Mojo loves Riverside Park, as we all do in GR, so we went for some chill time at sunset. 

I love that the book Carlee is reading is "How to Speak Dog", as Mojo is quite the diva. It's just funny to me. She has her own personality for sure and will let you know how she feels. She is playful and sweet, but do not tick her off. Silent treatment with a nose in the air. I will always and forever think of Mojo when there are fireworks, from all the scaredy-cat stories. It's ok, Mojo. I just want to hug her all week of the 4th of July. 

I know that they've been there for each other through a lot over the years. Best friends such as these should be on camera. 

Thank you for letting me capture the love you have for each other! Enjoy the preview:

O'CONNOR FAMILY

Heritage Park--Taylor, MI  

Who loves documenting families throughout the years and following them in their new adventures? This gal. I was happy to photograph Anne, Steve, and their new pup, Gunther. They had recently saved this adorable drooling fella and hrre did great! 

There is a lot of travel going on with this couple. With Steve leaving for a few weeks in Germany, I'm glad we got some time to relax at Heritage Park, in Taylor. 

In case you missed their last session, a pretty fall day in Ann Arbor with their old pal, Dexter (you are missed!), you may view it here:
