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!

Shelby

We had the pleasure of photographing Shelby, a high school senior, recently.  Here are some of our favorites!  

Thanks, Shelby for coming to us for your senior pics.  We had a great time photographing you & hope you enjoy the photos!

Rachel

We photographed Rachel over the summer outdoors for her senior portraits.  We followed that up with an indoor session at our studio.  We usually focus on outdoor portraits for seniors but will break out the studio lights from time to time for those yearbook shots!

Kevin

Kevin is a senior at Bay City Western this year. When he came to us for his senior pics he brought his hobbies and interests to incorporate, which makes the photos so much more personal. We started at his house with a classic car and his dirt bike.

Then we were off to Monitor Lanes in Bay City, where his bowling team practices.

We headed downtown in search of an urban background for his rockstar shots. I think we found the perfect alley!

Thanks Kevin for coming to us for your senior photos!

Nick

Nick is going to be a high school senior this year at Heritage.  We did the session at the studio and at his house.  As usual, I liked the outside images best!

Thank you, Nick for choosing ETV for your senior pics!

Sarah

We're full swing into our senior photo season.  I photographed Sarah at Dow Gardens, the Midland Civic Arena and at our studio.  She was an awesome subject and a very sweet girl!  Check out all the images here.

Sarah is really into hockey.  Actually, she is finishing out her senior year in Traverse City because she was accepted to their girls' hockey team.  How awesome is that!?!

I love it when we incorporate the model's interests into the photos.  It makes them so much more personal.

She has one mean slap-shot!  I was intimidated on the OTHER side of the glass!

Thanks, Sarah for having us take your senior photos!
