Introducing Mini-Sessions! [Ann Arbor, MI ~ Brighton, MI ~ Howell, MI ~ Detroit, MI ~ Portrait Photographer]

Many people have asked me if I could do their photos for their Holiday cards, etc.  So, what I'm doing is offering 'mini-sessions'.

We set up a mini-session for 30-45 minutes, and in return, you'll get 3-5 images that are appropriate for use in a Holiday card and/or as a family portrait.

A time-saver for all involved!  And low cost too!  Only $45...so contact me to schedule your mini-session today!

More of the Barb bunch!

More of Julie and her beautiful family! I had so much fun with them!



















Twins times two, oh my!

I had the privilege of shooting my friend Julie and her family yesterday evening, for one of my practice sessions.

What a GORGEOUS family!

Julie - here's a sneak peek (because I know you're probably up!) and I'll load more tomorrow!

My favorite little blond boy!

Noah is my friend, Chrissy's son.  We met online and she just so happens to live near Ann Arbor, so...over the last two year's, we've had the opportunity to get together frequently.  As a result, Noah and Nicholas are good buddies!

Noah has THE blondest hair I've EVER seen, and GORGEOUS blue eyes!


We met up at a small local orchard to snap a few pictures of Noah and these are my favorites!

Building my portfolio...

Many people have asked me if I they could pay me to take pictures of them and their family.

I'm very, very flattered, as I'm still a bit new to the photography world.  For this reason, I am not charging any fees at the moment, though I am taking donations! ;-)

What I *am* doing is portfolio building sessions, so if you would like to help me build my portfolio, please contact me (contact information is to the right) and we can schedule a session.

I will then share your pictures on my blog, and provide you with a disc containing images that I select, along with a release so you can print them/share them electronically.

Some sights from around town...

I saw this tree when I was driving, so the next time I had my camera with me, I stopped!




































On the way home from Lansing, I saw this tractor and thought it was so stunning in the wheat colored field!

My Little Monkey!

I LOVE this picture of Nicholas...it was taken while at the Cincinnati Zoo's HallZOOween event!  Isn't he cute?  Just LOOK at those eyelashes & eyebrows!  Do you know any other two-year olds with hair and/or eyebrows like that???

Fun with Stephanie's Family at Potter Park

My friend Stephanie volunteered to be a 'test subject' for me...her boys are SO photogenic and were SO much fun!  Connor even gave me some suggestions on how to take his picture!

































































































































The family was up for some fun!



 

I love this one of the boys!

Lily's First Halloween!

Last night was my first time photographing someone other than my children, and it was SO much fun!  I had the privilege of shooting my friend Kelly's little girl, Lily, who is just a month or so older than Christopher.

Lily was a great subject, though we had to call in 'reinforcements' in the form of her big sister Rachel, to get her to show some personality!  Note to self: best to shoot babies in the AM, not the PM!

Kelly, Paul, Rachel, and Lily - I hope you like the way these turned out!  I had so much fun!
