Thank You!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we would like to say a huge THANK YOU to all of our wonderful clients!  We have had a fantastic year and have had the opportunity to photograph some really amazing folks.  We have a pretty cool job but what makes it all worthwhile is the people.  To photograph a four-year-old and then have her mom tell us that she played "photographer" for a week following, posing everything from her dolls to their cat, really touches our hearts.  The wonderful letters and e-mails that we receive from newlyweds expressing their gratitude for their wedding photos mean so much to us.  We get inspired so much from the people we work with.  Thanks so much for that!  We appreciate your confidence in us and entrusting us with your most important memories!  May you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving and many reasons to be thankful.

Ashlie & Jeff

We have had the opportunity to photograph both Ashlie & Jeff in past weddings.  They are now planning for their own wedding coming up in May.  We are so excited to work with them again!

We are so glad that you two looked us up for your engagement & wedding photos!

Kelly + Nick

Here are a few photos from Nick & Kelly's wedding.  Nick and Mike used to work together and are good friends.  We were thrilled that they asked us to photograph their wedding.  We had a great time and bumped into a lot of familiar faces.

Rain...oh well!  We braved it and got some really cute shots.

Kelly & Nick: you are the sweetest couple.  It was such a pleasure working with you!  Best Wishes.

Ava

This little cutie is the daughter of Jessica & Joshua, whom we met and photographed at their wedding a couple of years ago.  Isn't she adorable?

Hold on dad, I need some help up....

Ha!  I love the drool...

Look at those beautiful blue eyes.

It was wonderful to see you again, Jessi & Josh and awesome to meet Ava!  She's such a beautiful baby.

Shantel + Drew

We have had some really awesome couples this year ask us to be a part of their wedding.  Shantel and Drew are definitely one of them!  They are both incredibly warm-hearted and kind and also extremely fun to be around!  We had such a wonderful time working with them. They truly made us feel so welcome, like we were a part of the family.

We photographed Drew's sister's wedding last fall and she sent me a hilarious e-mail about the following photo.  I believe it went something like this: "You say 'okay, jump!' and my husband does a handstand!  Do you see what I live with?".  Can you guess which one is her hubby??

Shantel & Drew: we wish you nothing but the absolute best in your new lives together!  We are so glad that we are going to be moving so close to your new home so that we can keep in touch and of course, take all your future family photos! :-)

Grady

We photographed Heidi & Jeff's wedding in 2006 and were thrilled for them as they were expecting their first child.  They made a trip to Michigan (they live in Ohio) and we had the chance to meet, and of course photograph, little baby Grady.

Ahhhh, baby yawns!

Love me some baby toes!

It is always so fun for us to get to see "our couples" start and grow their families.  Thanks, Heidi & Jeff for introducing us to the little guy.  What a darling!  Congratulations to you both.

Lori

This gorgeous girl also happens to be my younger sister.  Lori was the first person to ever model for me.  As an aspiring eleven-year-old photographer, I grabbed my little sis and mom's camera and we did a photo shoot complete with stuffed animals and bunk beds!  She is also my favorite person in the world to photograph to this day.  Not only is she beautiful and very photogenic, she trusts me completely (even with the poses that feel really awkward!) and we always have lots of fun during our sessions. 

We photographed a Saturday wedding at Castle Farms this summer and decided to make it into a long weekend in Charlevoix.  Lori came along and we did the first part of her senior photos downtown and on the beach.

 

We waited for the leaves to reach their peak color and took some more photos in my parents' backyard.  Mike and I are thrilled with the way they turned out!

Lori: we are so proud of you!  You are such a wonderful, funny and beautiful girl.  We are proud and honored to have you as a sister.  We wish you many, many blessings as you finish up your last year of high school and go on to college next year!  Love you!
