Grand Rapids photographer
Every once in a while, I dedicate a little time to a creative shoot to test a technique, location, or sometimes just because this is a fun line of work, and I want to make an idea come to life.
”Direct flash and nightlife” were the inspiration for this shoot (also sounds like a candle from Bath and Body Works to be honest), and Olivia and Colton were the perfect models for the job. We jumped around downtown Grand Rapids with a single flash and all the vibes.
Ariana and Chris are absolutely effortless to be around, and it makes perfect sense that these two wonderful people ended up together.
We started the engagement session in the backyard of Ariana’s parents, and I can’t believe people get to live with daily sunsets like this. After a lot of genuine laughter and these two looking like movie stars, we moved on to the Ada covered bridge where we ended the day.
They are some of the kindest, most thoughtful humans ever, and I can already tell their wedding is going to be full of people celebrating who they are as individuals as well as a power couple.
Congratulations, and I can’t wait for the big day!
Getting to see a couple again after their wedding day is always a treat, and it’s especially so when there’s a new addition to the family!
I’m so happy for all four of you, this little one will be so loved.
The day before Kristin and Will’s engagement session was mid sixties and sunny, great photo weather you might think! The day of our shoot comes around and the springtime air was replaced with low forties and enough wind to ruin just about any mood. You would never know it to look at these two. They took the whole thing in stride, laughing through the entire session, and joyfully pointing out every dog we saw along the way (I care deeply about that, Kristin gets me).
We wandered around ta few of the great locations downtown Grand Rapids has to offer, and then finished up with a pint at City Built Brewing. Honestly, it was perfect.
Congratulations Kristin and Will! Your October wedding is going to be magnificent.
Mr and Mrs Slick had a spectacular wedding last September that I had the honor of photographing. Their love for each other was so evident that day, and it was clear there would be years of joy ahead of them.
When Rebecca reached out to me a few months ago to schedule maternity photos, I was freaking out. Genuinely way more excited than what is dignified.
You two are going to be amazing parents, congratulations on the soon-to-be growing family!
