Michigan wedding and portrait photography
Yesterday afternoon we had a great shoot with Holly and Nick for their engagement session. They had access to an old 1970 Challenger which made for some cool photos.

Yesterday I had the opportunity to do some commercial photography for the Royal Park Hotel. They needed images to help represent the hotel experience for the corporate client including meeting spaces, rooms, and room service.
The Royal Park is very versatile with many different sizes and configurations for the their meeting spaces and they can host events and conferences of all different sizes.
If anyone is interested in renting our farmhouse out by Great Lakes Crossing, let me know.
It’s 3200 sq. ft. with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths.
Here’s a link that has photos of most of the rooms:

This afternoon it was so beautiful outside we decided to take the boys out to play at the farmhouse for the first time. It was pretty windy so we brought a kite out there and they got to run and play in the field.
From now through May 10, we will be doing discounted photo shoots for kids and babies as a fundraiser.
Until May 10th, our kids and babies photo shoots will start at $99 instead of $375. From that $99, $50 will go to an organization called Invisible Children which is a non-profit organization which raises awareness about the plight of the children in Uganda along with helping to build schools to rehabilitate them. In Uganda, over 30,000 children as young as 10 years old have been abducted and turned into fighters, laborers or sex slaves for a war that has been going on for 25 years.
The money for this fundraiser will help a great organization that is making a difference.

If you have a stronger stomach, here’s a video done by MSNBC many years ago which talks about the same war:

We are blessed that we live in a country where our kids are not exposed to death and violence. Our children have the opportunity to grow up in safe homes where they get to laugh and play while on the other side of the world, children are being forced to murder and in some cases have even been forced to murder their own families. They have lived their entire lives not knowing what peace looks like.
We are very blessed. Lets not forget how blessed we are.
Kids deserve to know joy and laughter no matter where they live.
