Sarah (Senior~Eastwood HS)

When I decided to start photographing seniors again, I never dreamed I’d be so lucky to get to photograph (again) this beautiful girl.

You see, I met Sarah’s parents when Sarah was just a baby and I managed the Moto Photo portrait studio which was brand new. Sarah’s parent’s, Rob and Pam brought her in to the studio to me. Back then, I was pretty new to the area, having just moved from Virginia Beach, where I worked as a manager in another studio for 5 years.

I later reconnected with Pam as they own the amazing wedding and event venue Nazareth Hall in Grand Rapids (Bowling Green area), Ohio.

Thanks for thinking of me for these precious memories Pam and Sarah!

Isabella’s {BIRTH} story

Birth photography .. it’s taking over. At least, for me! I LOVE, LOVE, times a GAZILLION capturing birth stories and I am happy to be making the switch to being more of a full time birth photographer, with only photographing a select number of weddings per season.

 

With birth, comes maternity. Just as with photographing an engagement session helps to build a bond with a couple so that on the wedding day everything and everyone is on the same page.

 

Since birth photography is so super personal, it’s important to connect and be comfortable before the “big day”.

here are a few of my favorites from Angelica and Jarod’s maternity session, with a few sneaks of the birth of Isabella, born just a couple of weeks after!

the maternity milk bath…. ahhh so sweet, relaxing, beautiful.

I have the pleasure of capturing the birth of baby when he arrives next month, and as part of  her birth package this mama opted for a milk bath session.

GAHHHH! Can you say GORGEOUS??!

I cannot wait to photograph more of these precious sessions! Contact me for more information!

Until then, enjoy a sneak peek from the session today!
