Working and cleaning this Sunday at home. It’s amazing how much stuff seems to get away from me during the week, and each week truly flies by so quickly! So much is going on here. But, in the midst of family, friends, business, and chores, I wanted to stop and share an image that I took yesterday. Taking a moment to notice small, beautiful things… it reminds me of a way of life that we forget all too often. Have a great week, everyone.
Last week I met up with Melanie and her two kids, Casey (age 2), and Charleigh (about 8 months old). It was a gorgeous, almost summer-like day, and the two kids were so good! Melanie, her husband, and their kids just moved to the area, and it was so lovely to meet them. I hope they enjoy their new home, and the kids enjoy getting to know a new town with plenty of great things to do. It was a pleasure to work with them and take their photos, and I loved the kids’ bright outfits and sweet personalities. Thank you again, Melanie, for choosing me to capture your children at this adorable age! I hope you enjoy this preview!
Yesterday, Katie and Chad’s baby was due. Come on, Baby T! So, now begins the last days of waiting… which won’t be easy, since they are of course very excited to meet their baby boy! It won’t be much longer until they welcome him into their world! These two will be wonderful parents, and we are so happy for them. Here are a few more of my favorites from their maternity session – these pictures were a late game decision I am so glad they made! The mosquitoes were out… but a good time was had by all. Looking forward to some exciting news any time now…
I’m so glad Chad and Katie decided at the last minute to have maternity photos taken, and I wanted to post a couple of my favorites immediately, because their baby boy is due any day now! Literally. She’s basically 40 weeks along, and is a stunning pregnant mama! Can’t wait to meet their little guy soon (and I’ll be sharing more photos in the next few days).
Last month I was able to photograph a wedding reception in Grand Rapids, for Kristen and Sunil, who were married in March. Their wedding took place in India, so they have had a few celebrations – making sure to include as many friends and family, near and far, as they could… and to celebrate the beautiful traditions of both sides of the family. The reception was full of joy, dancing, great food, and beautiful color. I was honored to be there to capture all the details they had so carefully put together. Kristen and I have known each other for most of our lives (since preschool or Kindergarten, at least), and it was a privilege to see her again and to meet her kind, handsome husband Sunil. Thank you, and congratulations again! I wish you both all the best!
