What a darling family!  I honestly feel so blessed to be invited into people’s homes to capture the season of life they are in.  All the crazy, all the fun and all the love.  I love doing lifestyle sessions, and when you live on a beautiful lake, it’s just a perfect location. I can relate to these mommas – especially Brittany who has two girls close in age to mine.  It’s such a busy season of life, and quite honestly, family portraits can be a hassle when you have small children. I encourage you not to wait; instead, embrace where you are at even if your kids are wild and free, or quiet and shy in many of the photos (as I’m sure mine will be when we have ours taken this fall!).  Brittany and her husband just smiled through all the play, and I love the raw emotion and the authenticity of this type of family photos.  I love the close ups of these darling girlies; their sweet little faces. Any time I get invited in for unicorn cupcakes, I’m game!  I hope you blow these up all over your home! 😉

Have you scheduled your fall mini session yet!?  These sessions are the perfect way to get some some fun portraits in a short time span!  (dads and kiddos rejoice! LOL)  Yes, I am able to get a lot of awesome photos in 15 minutes.  I will keep you moving and photograph you authentically with a couple of different fun backdrops.  MANY families use photos from their fall sessions for Christmas cards- (I know it’s September, but have you been to Hobby Lobby??!! Christmas is in full swing there!) You will have printing rights to 10 of my favorite images from your session as well as 3 professional 5×7 prints (Christmas gifts for Grandparents?) I still have appointments available in Battle Creek and Grand Rapids- fill in the following form to receive all of the session information to your inbox 🙂
