Kasey | Maternity Portraits

admin — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 14:02:40 +0000

Hello and happy Monday! Do you remember Ava? Well, Ava is going to be a big sister in just a few short weeks and her mom, Kasey, wanted to be sure to capture this time before the little one arrives. I have SO enjoyed documenting their growing family since I first met them and I am SO looking forward to meeting their new addition very soon! For now, the beautiful Kasey:

Kasey, Brian & Ava: I hope you enjoy and I can’t wait to meet the little guy! Very best wishes in these final weeks leading up to the big day! Cheers,

Ava – Portraits | Six Months

admin — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 12:00:19 +0000

Wow, what a difference six months can make! You might remember Ava from her newborn session in May (or even from her mom’s maternity session) and now she’s sitting up, laughing at her sister, Ella, and keeping busy turning into a pretty little lady.

I know I’ve said it before but I LOVE when I have the opportunity to photograph a little one a few times as they grow. It’s such a treat for me to compare how they’ve changed!

Delinne, David, Ella and Ava: Thank you AGAIN! It is SO neat to see your family grow and change (so quickly!) and I appreciate it so much. Very best wishes to you guys as your little girls grow,

Diana & Jeff | Engagement

admin — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 16:10:10 +0000

I often think you can get through just about any situation as long as you keep a sense of humor about you. That’s how I know Diana and Jeff will cruise through their life together keeping cool through it all. Because they are always laughing. Always smiling. Always reminding each other to have a sense of humor.

Congratulations you guys!

Diana & Jeff: I hope you enjoy this little preview and I’m so honored that I’ll be there to capture your big day next year. Keep making each other laugh always! Hugs,

Dash | Portraits

admin — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 10:39:57 +0000

You might remember Dash’s older brother, Preston, from previous blog posts. Well, you’re not going to believe how much these two look alike. Or how cute they both are … Dash with his sleepy eyes and roly poly arms. Just look! :)

Amanda and Nate: Thank you, once again, for thinking of me for Dash’s photos. It is always a pleasure for me to visit and see how you all are doing and especially fun this time around to meet little Dash and see how much Preston has grown (little man!). Hope you both enjoy! Hugs,

Adia | Portraits

admin — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 11:36:54 +0000

When I walked in, I saw Adia’s pigtails all tucked away in those little pink bows. Then, moments later, she put on her little pink cowboy boots so we could head outside. How’s that for being full of personality at two years old? What a doll! Meet Adia, who will be two in just a few short days…

Sara and Adia: What a fun morning I had with you guys! Thank you for allowing me to capture this time in Adia’s life, she is so sweet and I hope she has the most wonderful Thomas the Train birthday party! Cheers,

Katelyn | Portraits

admin — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 17:33:22 +0000

Jane and I got together at the end of July for a maternity shoot so she could surprise her husband, Chris, with some belly photos while he was overseas. It was so exciting to be part of her surprise but even more exciting to finally meet their new little girl, Katelyn. I’m so happy we had the chance to do this…just look how sweet she is!

Jane, Chris, & Katelyn: This process has been so fun. Thank you so much for putting so much trust in me for both your maternity photos and Katelyn’s first shoot – it has been great working with you guys. Wishing you lots of luck over the next few months with all of your travels and as you get settled. All the best,

The Carey Family | Portraits

admin — Thu, 08 Sep 2011 11:00:26 +0000

Wait until you see these kids. Two little blondies – brother and sister – and two little brunettes – brother and sister. All competing for most adorable.

To me, family sessions are the most fun when the kids are just being themselves which is why this session was a treat. We spent some time getting some great big family photos but then just sort of let the kids enjoy each other for a bit while I tried to keep up with them. And, this family had a great sense of humor so we have photos of groupings such as “grandma’s biggest pains in the neck,” which included a surprising amount of family members! What a nice Sunday afternoon. :)

Carey Family: Thank you for the honor of being the one to capture your family at this exciting time! I hope you all will enjoy these photographs and look back on this time fondly. Best wishes to each of you,

nicole

Paige & Adam – Engagement: Royal Park Hotel, Rochester

admin — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 12:00:15 +0000

The very first time I met with Paige and Adam, two hours flew by before we all realized it was well into the day and each of us still needed to eat lunch! But, as we sat there talking about some of my favorite things – from northern Michigan to wine to December weddings to great food – I just lost track of time and felt like I was catching up with old friends. Last week, we got together for an engagement session in Rochester and, again, had such a nice time. I couldn’t be more excited to see these two get married in December as well as to capture all of the beautiful details they have in the works!

Adam proposed to Paige on the Paint Creek Trail near the Royal Park Hotel so we thought it was fitting to go back and properly record it all. It was so neat to hear their story again as we walked along the trail – Adam’s attention to every detail that went into the proposal, Paige’s fear when Adam told her they “needed to talk,” and, of course, how it all worked out perfectly.

We decided to pop into the Royal Park Hotel for a few classy images. And, by classy, I mean that I have subtly omitted the photographs of Paige and Adam karate chopping the perfect little pillows on the perfect little couches in the perfect little sitting area of the hotel.

Then, after a quick clothing change, we took a spin around downtown Rochester before we headed back to the Royal Park for a glass of wine. And that, my friends, is a great evening!

Paige & Adam: I officially am counting down until December now – I cannot wait to see you guys in all of your wedding day glory! Thanks for such a great time and for being so open to sharing so many great stories with me. I hope you guys enjoy the preview! Hugs,
