"Photojournalism / Documentary Style with a Fine Art Edge" -- Michigan based, plus destination photography
Welcome Smith! I'm so happy for this adorable little family! I've known Karri for a while now, through old bar jobs and softball teams. Many tequila shots after a game with this lady. I was initially drawn to her Australian accent and found out that she had such a warm personality! Brett and Karri are such a cute, sweet, and funny couple. Now they have a new athlete on their team!
Thank you for choosing me to capture your new adventure. Enjoy the preview:
I was so grateful to take a break and head up north this past holiday weekend! With the to-do lists that never end, the anxiety of a busy season, more racing thoughts of that to-do list... Summertime goes by so fast here in Michigan, so it's imperative to take the time to do absolutely nothing. Laze around, listen to the loons, smell the fresh cut grass, just enjoy the sun... This was a weekend of fishing, kayaking, canoeing, ice cream, pancakes, coffee on the porch in our pj's reading magazines, the beach, campfires, marshmallows as big as your face...
I did my best to create a Pinterest surprise for my niece and nephews, to no avail. Fail. The bubbles never glowed in the dark. But! The glow in the dark bowling was a hit! Until the mosquitoes swarmed. It was a really good five minutes, though.
I can't wait to get back to our little "vacation house" and do some more nothing.
Congratulations Christina and Rodney! What a cute couple they are! So, so sweet on each other. They met as freshmen at Western Michigan University, at a party. They had a lunch date in one of the dorms, and stayed together for eight years. The ups and downs that everyone faces as a couple only made them that much stronger. They moved to Atlanta in 2015. Big city livin' and sunshine! Getting acclimated to a new city without their friends and family was challenging, but they have always been better together and saw it through.
Rodney proposed on Friday the 13th (spooky). They were with both families at their favorite restaurant, Martel's. She had no idea what was coming. They were waiting on Rodney's brother to show up, and Rodney was so anxious and nervous that as soon as he did, he popped up and proposed right away.
They had a theme at McKay - a mix of Great Gatsby, prohibition, etc. (due to their love for expanding their wine and bourbon knowledge). It was truly beautiful. I knew as soon as I entered the guys room at the beginning of the day that I would be laughing for the rest of it. This was a great group of people.
I'm very honored to document Christina and Rodney's story. Enjoy the preview!
