THE JOURNAL

This may go down as one of my most memorable love shoots to date. When I sat down in the dead of winter (January to be exact) with Barb & Jaron, we schemed up a plan to shoot their Love Shoot in the amazing Irish Hills where Jaron spent a good part of his childhood. […]

So this wedding is the one that officially marked the start of my 2014 wedding season … at least on U.S soil.  And it was a perfect start to a whirlwind year.  It had all of my favorite elements brought together & bundled up in one pretty location, the new Cottonwood Barn in Dexter, Michigan. […]

He’s a pro hockey player, she’s his biggest fan.  Together, they’re as adorable as it comes.  I met Kevin & Amanda for the first time earlier this week for their Love Shoot, and it was one of those shoots that came together effortlessly.  Amanda’s vision for their shoot came from inspiration from their many travels […]

I couldn’t wait to share this really special senior shoot.  I’ve shot Kelsey before for last year’s Fresh Faces Campaign and couldn’t wait to shoot her senior pictures this year.  She’s such a beauty, and a redhead to boot.  Anyone who’s shot with m knows I have a thing for redheads.  As in shooting them.
