Senior Portraits- Grandville, MI- Hailey

Grandville, MI-- Spring Grove Park

This lady is just so gorgeous I couldn't stop shooting!! She should be a model for me. She is just as beautiful on the inside too! So warm, friendly, and always smiling! I had so much fun at this session.

Hailey plays 3rd base and seems pretty intimidating with a glove in her hand. She also shares my number, so I know she must be pretty good.

What a beautiful family those Stanfords are. I snuck a couple of Hailey with her friend, Rachel, also. What a great time in their lives-- everything ahead of them. Best of luck to you!!

Enjoy the samples...

EVE at the BOB Grand Rapids--- Andy and Jen

EVE at the BOB
Grand Rapids, MI  

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Schubert!! These two are such a beautiful couple-- inside and out. They met at work years ago and have been together ever since.

Jen opened the door for me in the midst of getting ready, with the girls all a flutter, and she was just so gorgeous and warm. When I went to check on the fellas, Andy was asking me how she was doing and I felt the love he had for her. We did the door shot and I knew they just wanted to see each other so badly! It was really cute. It was nice to catch his reaction when she was walking down the aisle, though. I think everyone choked up a little at that point.

We had a sunny day on August 3rd, and took a little walk around Grand Rapids before heading back to the reception. Then the celebrating really started! The smores bar was a big hit. This wedding had the best dancing guests, I believe! It was so much fun. They only left the dance floor for "Pudgy Bunny". The Schuberts always held this competition when they went camping. You shove your face with marshmallows, saying "Pudgy Bunny" each time you do. It was funny to see 7 foot tall Andy with huge cheeks, saying "Pudgy Bunny" in his deep voice.  It was new to me, but I will be doing this when I go camping from now on!

I sincerely wish that Jen and Andy lived in Michigan. I want to keep photographing them!! Great people and a great day. I wish you two the best!

Maggie and Stella Zick

Grand Rapids, MI I love photographing this family!! I still look at the images from Maggie and Dave's wedding, and I still want to do it all over again. I have been photographing the Zick family for a couple of years now and I am always excited for more! I can't believe how much Stella has grown since their last family session.

This time, Maggie and Stella wanted to have some mommy-daughter time. We started with some casual shots at home, then the rain let up enough to have a little tea party (with my brand new teapot!), and we finished our "girls' night" with a PJ party. It was a great alternative to the rain and was such a great time. Again, I love this family.
