Family Portraits with the Kelly family in Rochester Hills, MI

Family portraits don’t always need to be mom, dad, and kids. For many people, their dogs are a super important part of their family so there is no reason not to do some dog portraits as well.
We had a great time photographing the Kellys. Teddy (the white dog) was running all over the yard and he’s such a big and floppy dog, it was fun doing photos of him.

Family portraits in Rochester Hills, MI with the Shah’s

Today we got to see the Shah family again. We photographed the boys last year and this year we took a few studio shots of the whole family.
When we photographed them last year, Aren who is the older brother was all over the place while Deven was calm and mellow. Things definitely changed in a year. This time Aren was a perfect little angel and Deven wanted to run all around. It’s so cool to see personalities shift and develop as kids grow!!

Matt and Mayz

Last night, Cheridy and her sister Amber had their weekly soccer game. Amber brought her son Matt over so that him and Mayz could play together.
While I was watching the boys, we went into the studio for a little bit and took some pictures as a surprise for Amber.
It’s crazy to think that I met Matt when he was just a little older than what Mayz is now. It’s awesome that they love each other so much!!

This morning we finished having breakfast and Mayz was looking too darn cute in his “rocketman” pajamas so I had to get my camera because it’s been too long since we’ve done some pics with him. It was snowing some big beautiful flakes this morning so we got him all bundled up and took him outside for some fun in the snow.

Wedding venue review for the Detroit Opera House

Leave a comment or read comments. Currently there are (0) comments

The Detroit Opera House is summed up by the words “classic elegance.” The decor is exquisite and the theater which turns into the ballroom is very spacious and extravagant. Last year we photographed Bessie and Sina’s wedding there and our jaws dropped when we walked in and saw the room. It was magnificent! I love the spotlights through the auditorium that provided really unique lighting on the whole venue.

Walking through the hallways and seeing the stunning chandeliers made us realize that we were a part of something really special!

The event we photographed their in 2009 was on the same night as a Detroit Tigers game. Comerica Park is right across the street and it made driving and parking very difficult and confusing for a lot of the guests so make sure to check the schedules and have a plan in place in the event of a game.

This afternoon we had a fun shoot with the Piggot children. Last mothers day, we had given our church a number of gift cards to put into gift baskets that were going to deserving mothers and this was one of the families that came from that.

Van Hoosen Farms Fall Color Family Photos with the Stabnick Kids

Today was a very interesting day. I was feeling quite under the weather and wasn’t sure how well I would hold up photographing 4 kids. Then…along comes the Stabnick family who are AMAZING. This group of kids have to be the nicest, sweetest group of kids. They were so loving to one another, they were nice to us, they did everything we asked them to do, there was no complaining, just lots of fun and laughing and playing. The older kids were all so caring for their little sister, you could just tell that they all really love each other a lot which, to be quite honest, is a rarity for a group of four siblings. I think their parents should write a book about what they’re doing because whatever it is…it’s working! Not only were the kids fantastic to work with but we also had the perfect setting with great weather and beautiful color on the trees. Praise Jesus for today’s photo shoot!!

This afternoon we got together with the Pfeifers. We photographed their baby Aaron a few years ago and now they were back with their family along with their new little one…Carson.
We photographed Aaron every time he would stop running and then we would switch off and get a few of Carson during his happy moments. We ended up with lots of great photos from today’s session. Here are a few of them:

Lifestyle Family Photos in Rochester, MI with The Zalla Family

Yesterday we had a great photo shoot with the Zalla family. We did photos at the park where the kids could run and play and have a good time. My favorite part about these types of shoots is that the images really tell a story about the family dynamic and they are best presented in a storyboard or series so I put a few together here:

Rochester Park Kids Photos with Fallon

We’ve been blessed to know the O’Connor family for 4 years now. They come each year to photograph little Fallon for her birthday. They come from Massachusetts each year and with travel schedules, the shoot this year got pushed back a few months, but we were glad to have been able to see them again. It’s been really cool to watch Fallon grow from one year to the next.
We got a ton of great images from the shoot today. Here’s just a few favorites:
