Little One {Grand Rapids Newborn Photographer}

It took two tries to get this little babe to sleep but our hard work paid off. Isn't he sweet? I just loved snuggling with this little guy, my kids just grew up way too fast!!

Out

I'm out of here!! I'm off traveling for the weekend and I will not have access to my email. I'll return all emails and all phone calls when I return early next week.

I leave you with this image of a beautiful mamma with her new little babe. Have a great holiday weekend!!

Bob & Rachel = Wedding Bells {Grand Rapids Photographer}

What a beautiful day Bob and Rachel had last week on their wedding day! That left us so much time to do my favorite types of shoots - urban. We had a blast downtown enjoying the sunshine and warm weather.

I literally gasped when I pulled up to the parish.

Bob and Rachel were married at St. Alphonsus, stunning both on the outside and inside.

The reception was at Notos.

If any brides are looking for a wedding planner Mary from Lucky Girl Weddings had everything under control and the day went off without a hitch.

There are so many pictures I want to share but there are just too many to blog about so I leave you with these...

Thank you Bob and Rachel for inviting me to share your day with you! Congratulations!

Just One {Grand Rapids Wedding Photographer}

Just one from Bob & Rachel's wedding on Saturday. Many more images to share later this week!

Eggs: Not The Breakfast Kind {Grand Rapids Photographer}

We found these under our deck the other day. Can you guess what bird they come from??

**ANSWER** It's the nest of a Killdeer. Notice how it doesn't make an actual next of twigs and feathers but rather burrows a small hole in the rocks? I find that to be interesting but I'm a real bird lover... :)

Dreamspun {Grand Rapids Commercial Photographer}

Not too long ago I had the best time shooting a commercial line for a clothing designer. This was a first for me and I had so much fun. The girls, the clothes, the props, it came together and we came up with this...

Isn't her stuff incredible? The swimsuit was a favorite of mine! You can find some clothes and many patterns to make your own designs HERE. Happy shopping!

Taylor {Grand Rapids Senior Photography}

I'm still busy photographing my senior models and recently I got to photograph Taylor who had the posing down to a science! Seriously, this girl is so comfortable in front of the camera and it shows!!

Thanks for hanging out with me the other day and a special thanks to my assistant Trent! ;)

A little about what Taylor says about herself.

"Basketball is a huge part of my life, playing and watching. In the future I would love to pursue a career in the medical field. I absolutely love gummy worms, ice cream, and chinese food. I love being with my family, especially my 5 adorable nephews and 5 sisters. I love shopping, only when it includes finding the deals. :) I love dancing and singing, two of my favorites. :) My favorite place to be is on the beach in the sun. "

Taylor, my senior rep #5.

Sarah {Grand Rapids Senior Photographer}

Last week I met up with the beautiful Sarah my senior rep #4 on possibly the most windy day of the entire year. I swear, I thought we were going to blow away... no really, it was that windy.

Sarah says this about herself:

"I play golf. I love helping others out. I love music and playing the piano. I love to laugh. I love the color pink. I love old cars. I love cats. I collect magnets from places I've been to.

I had so much fun with you Sarah!! Thanks for being such a trooper in all that wind!

Sigh {Grand Rapids Childrens Photographer}

Oldest buddy turned 6 last month. Where did the time go? I love this boy more than he could ever imagine. He is so full of love and his zest for life is immeasurable.

Here he is, Mr. tough guy...

More senior models to be blogged this week - so stay tuned!
