the currier family


After the Bechler family pictures, we stayed at the park and did a session of just Brad & Amanda + their sweet baby boy Landon. Poor Landon was such a grumpy little guy, but he’s just so cute. Here are some favorites. 🙂





the bechler family


Last weekend, I had a fun time with the Bechler family, who I’ve known for many years. I love all of them so much and it was great to be able to take some family pictures for them. Here are a few favorites. 🙂




sara + darrell | grand ledge engagement pictures


I had so much fun with Sara and Darrell last weekend in Grand Ledge. The colors were at their peak and made for some gorgeous pictures. The ledges along the river are so cool. There were lots of rock climbers out that day taking advantage of the rock walls. We also braved the railroad trestle just after a train went across. Crazy? Yes, but fun! If a train had come through, it would have been like this scene from Stand By Me. 😉 Here are some of my favorites from our afternoon together.








Can’t wait for the wedding next May! 🙂

sara + darrell | engagement

Here’s a little sneak peek of the location I had to work with on Sunday. Yeah, I know, it’s a hard life. 😉 The park in Grand Ledge was gorgeous with lots of beautiful colors. So many of the leaves had fallen from the recent rain, but that just made it even prettier, like walking along golden paths. We went for a little hike along the river, by the ledges and across the train trestle. It was a lot of fun and we got some really great pictures that I’ll share very soon.

grady is 1


Took family pictures for my friend Heidi on Saturday and this was one of the last shots I got. I’ll share more of their pictures later, but I thought it would be fitting to show this one today since it’s Grady’s first birthday. Can’t believe it’s been a year already. Click HERE to see some pictures I took shortly after he was born. He’s such a cutie pie.

Happy Birthday, Grady!

lindsey + kevin | albums

I meant to share this a couple weeks ago. Lindsey and Kevin’s album arrived and I took a few quick pictures to share. I love these albums. Every time I get one for my wedding couples, it makes me want to dig out my old wedding pictures and make a book of my own. Someday …

The slideshow of the full design is below the pictures, too.

My friend and former APW bride, Lindsay, featured me as “website of the week” over on her blog today. Thanks, Lindsay! You’re the sweetest. 🙂
