shutterfly feature

Look what popped up on my Google Alerts today! One of the editors from Shutterfly contacted me a few months ago. They had seen my Year In Review album that I made for mom last year in their gallery and wanted to feature it on their site. I thought it would just be a picture […]

rachel’s baby shower

Rachel’s Baby Shower, Zeeland, MI. Rachel is so beautiful pregnant. So cute with her little baby belly. It was so great to see her family and spend the afternoon with them on Sunday celebrating the little boy who’ll be arriving in a month. I’m sure I’ll soon have pictures of the little one to share.

what’s in a name?

a picture’s worth photography To me, pictures are one of the most important things in my life. I’ve had a camera since I was about ten years old, I think, and I have books and books full of pictures from elementary school through high school and college and onto marriage, travel and my kiddos.

Every year, Zach and Chloe help their grandma color eggs and frost cookies. They have so much fun with her. It’s become a tradition ever since Zach was old enough to help.
