Milo is HERE!! If you follow my blog then you know that my friends, Lindsay and Matt, moved in next door a few months ago and became SUPER fast SUPER close friends of ours. If you don't follow my blog, then... sorry you're out of the loop and you learned your lesson ;) After hanging out with Lindsay and doing a couple casual shoots of her cute little girl here and there, we started counting down the weeks until Milo would be here. I went out on a limb and asked her if her and Matt would like me to photograph the birth. To my surprise she lit up like a light bulb and said "OH! that would be SO  COOL!"...

Inspiration | Livonia Michigan Senior Portrait Photographer Walled Lake Northern Senior Portraits I received an email from Darian's mother Michelle asking if I would do Darian's senior portraits and she told me that Darian wanted to be photographed with her horses to which I was psyched! As we were talking about dates to schedule the shoot I realized that the Livonia Spree was opening that next weekend. I had wanted to do an inspiration shoot at a carnival for SO long and I just never had the right model at the right time. Since Carnivals only come around at certain times each summer and last...

Neighborly Love! As many of you know, Matt and I moved into our house together a little over a year and a half ago. When we first moved in, the people who lived in the house next door had been there for a while and were perfectly nice people but we weren't close with them and didn't see them often unless they were doing something weird in their back yard (lol!). We knew we were renting so we didn't really worry too much about who was living around us. When they left a few months after we moved in, the house was left vacant for a while and we admitted that it would be nice and feel safer if...

I can't even begin to describe what an amazing experience it was to photograph the future Mr. and Mrs. Burdette! We had spent a couple weeks discussing the kind of theme and feel we wanted to create for this shoot and I couldn't be happier with the way the shoot went! I can only say that I came out of this deal with phenomenal images and a good ass time ;) So, when we were preparing for this shoot, Holly and I had been talking for a couple weeks about theme and feel and what kind of story we wanted to tell with this shoot. I knew that Matt, like myself, was a drummer...

.Alright! So by now I don't think that I know ANYONE who doesn't already have a pinterest account or AT LEAST knows what it is. Personally, Ihave been addicted to it since I created my account over a year ago and at that time there were only a handful of people I knew who had even heard of it. So, I began to spread the word all while spending hours and hours of my life pinning everything I loved from inspiration for my own shoots to ideas for decorating my home, to recipes to try and I could go on and on and on. I now have 55 different pinterest boards and 2632 total pins. SHEESH! What...

The MEN . Every wedding that I had the honor of shooting this past year of course came with some pretty awesome, and may I say, good looking grooms and their groomsmen. During every wedding, the time comes to capture photographs of the guys and it's always a different adventure. Each groom is totally different and in turn they come with their own set of groomsmen who each have a unique personality of their own. There is always the goofy one, the shy one, the one that really "isn't into this whole photo thing", there's always the ham who loves the camera.. etc. So, I have to say, I have...

. . . There were so many beautiful colors incorporated in my weddings this past year! Bouquets, decor, and boutonnieres are always details that I look forward to shooting every wedding. The floral arrangements always add to whatever theme, color scheme, or style each couple has created for their day. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and smell the roses ;) . .

IF THE SHOE FITS . . . . . . Wear it down the isle :) . Okay so we are rapidly approaching the end of 2011 and OH MAN what a wonderful year it was. I had the pleasure of photographing some unbelievably gorgeous weddings this year. Some of my own, and a few that I was lucky enough to second shoot for a few of my fantastic fellow photographers. I decided it was time to start compiling all of my favorite images from this wedding season and share them with all of you. I truly believe that great details make a great wedding. Well thought out details create the mood and atmosphere that you want...
