the schram family

When I got to the Schram house, I was amazed to find that Lydia (age 2.5) was talking up a storm – more than any child I have ever met at that age! I had a great time hanging out with her while we waited for baby Anna to wake up. Anna has just as much personality as Lydia already – such big smiles and laughs!

the obenchain family

The Obenchain family photos took us to the trail and barn area of the Matthai Botanical Gardens. The Obenchains have two darling kids (5 and 2) and even though we missed the fall colors by a week or so, the trails were great for photos.

the klenke family

It was such a pleasure to finally meet the Klenke family – one of the greatest things about photography is finally putting a name with a face after lots of emails! The family just announced also that a new baby brother or sister will be joining little Abby in April – so exciting!

the gritter family

We took Emma’s newborn pictures this summer, and we were so excited to document how much she has grown in the last 4 months! She was so easy to take pictures of – she just tracked the camera the whole time. We also got this photoshoot in on just about the last nice fall day.

the dorset family

We had a great time with the Dorset family in the Arb – their kids are awesome!! David works with Wendy and they had never been to the Arb before, so we thought we would try it out. I loved the spunk of both kids, which I think shows through in the photos!

baby miriam

Miriam is the newest addition for the Smith family, joining brother Ezra! Their house was perfect for photos, and it was even 78 degrees in October! You can see we had some special company next door, too!

the eastons

It has been such weird weather in Michigan lately, so no surprise that the perfect fall day for photos came at the end of September. Curtis Park in Saline was beautiful, and so are the Eastons, so it was a great day!

selah grace is here!

Holding and photographing Selah Grace at 10 hours old was such an honor! It was so special to see Mike and Erin interact with their new baby girl. Congratulations to the Penns – now a family of FOUR! Not only was this my first hospital shoot, but it is also my first entirely black and white post.

Also, here’s a first of a blog post – a picture of me with Baby Selah!

fall with the odoms

We cannot believe how much the Odom girls grow each time we are with them! Lucy and Julia are some of our favorite kids (even if sometimes we are not necessarily their favorite people as you can see in one of these photos!), and we love documenting them throughout the years. The Odoms have a beautiful new home and we enjoyed playing in their awesome backyard to get some updated fall photos.

gisa goose

My favorite part about this photoshoot was the way Anya could get Gisa to smile everytime by singing her a song she had sang to her every day since she was born! We took these photos at Kensington Park and it was an awesome place to shoot – great family, great location, great baby! Anya really likes Instagram photos also, so David took some of those as we shot – we’ve posted some of them at the end!
