Martin Family Orchard FUN! | Metro Detroit Family Photographer

When a session comes together like this, my heart just sings.  I have done a couple sessions at local apple orchards and I have to say that they provide a setting that is just perfect for the way  that I like to shoot.  Makes me wish that apples were in season all year long!  Add in a WONDERFUL family and it is just perfection.  This family is also extra special to me!  They were the very first strangers that I worked with a little over two years ago, when I was first trying my hand at photography.  Jenny was introduced to me by my brother-in-law when she was pregnant with Chase.  That was the session that really started my journey into professional photography.  I  have since worked with Jenny and her family for a few sessions and I swear that my camera just loves them (and I do too!)!  They are always favorites of mine and you will see several images of them over the last couple years on my website.

Can they be any cuter if they tried?

And Chase is SUCH a cute little guy!!!! It is just awesome to see this little guy that I met at just a few days old grow into an adorable active and FUN toddler!

He was dancing for me here and I have to say he has some pretty sweet moves!  While I was editing these, I had the Maroon 5 song “Moves Like Jagger” in my head.;)

So many favorites, but here are a few more!

Ben is one! | Northville Michigan Baby Photographer

I last met Ben a few months ago for his 7 month portrait session, that you can see here.    That session was actually one of my first after launching the business!  I have to say, one of my favorite parts of this job is the families I get to meet.  I love my clients and have so much fun getting to know them and working with them.  This family is no exception! Lisa and Darryl are a great couple and Ben is one seriously cute blue eyed boy!

Unfortunately Ben was having a bit of an off day.  It looked like his was getting his one year molars in and it was a bit of a chilly fall day. Poor guy was a little out of sorts, and I can’t say I blame him.  But I was able to capture a few happy moments during our session!

I have a feeling this is closer to how he is on a normal day.

And I love this too!

And I personally love serious faces just as much as smiles.

Of course more favorites!

The Pollard boys | Birmingham Michigan Family Photographer

A couple weeks ago, I met up with my good friend Lisa and her family Downtown Birmingham for an early morning session.  I don’t do too many outdoor morning sessions, and this late October morning was a cold one!  I believe it was in the mid 30′s and these boys were so good about being little rockstars and not complaining about how cold they were (and I know they were because my fingers had a hard time switching camera settings)!   It was a treat to work with these “older” boys since I tend to cater to the under 5 crowd. They did what I asked of them which is honestly not something I’m used to!  LOL!

Here are some of my favorites!

Thanks Lisa!  I had a blast with the boys!!!!

Gutman Family Fun! | Romeo and Huntington Woods Family Photographer

About a month ago I got the opportunity to meet this fun family in one of the areas  apple orchards.    These girls are just such little cuties and so much fun!  They were a big fan of having so many apples around and the orchard made for a perfect family setting.

Here are some of my personal favorites from that day!

Unfortunately it was a bit hectic and the orchard was closing, and we didn’t get as many family shots as we had wanted.  So we did round two and the family home.  We did a whole series of shots of the family hanging out and having fun together in bed, then headed over to the neighborhood park for some more traditional shots.

Thank you so much G Family! Your girls are just adorable!
