Shelby and Mister – Senior Portrait Session

I previously posted photos from Shelby’s session on Facebook, but now that I have a blog, would like to share some more from our session, and in addition include a few of the family photos we took.

Love these Purple Flowers

Sometimes I just love to go out in the evening when the sun is setting and photograph the beautiful wildflowers, grasses and nature we enjoy here in Michigan.   While I truly love photographing people, animals and horses, sometimes there is nothing like photographing something that isn’t running around and that you don’t have to worry about ears, eyes and expressions.  It allows me to focus more on light and composition…and it is just so darn beautiful.

Here are some photos I took last summer to enjoy this winter when things were gray and cold.  I’m not sure what is the name of the flower/weed.  Notice how the different angles make the flower look so different that you find yourself going back to the previous photos just to confirm that they are the same flower.  The background orb in the last photo is the moon coming up.  My plan is to try and post a few every Wednesday.

Lindsay and Nella – Senior Portrait Session

When the sun rose on the Saturday we had scheduled for Lindsay’s senior pictures, it was cold, windy and very cloudy.  Not the weather you would hope for when photographing a very important senior portrait session.  As the day went on, the sun came out and the weather improved greatly, though it remained a bit cold.  When I arrived at the session, Lindsay and her Mom met me at the car with warm smiles and I knew we were going to have a great time and weather would not be an issue.  Lindsay was amazing.  Her smile just lights up the photos, and the bond she has with Nella is obvious.  Here are a few photos from our session.

This is a session I previously posted on Facebook, but would like to share again here on my blog with a few additional photos included.

Bloomin Sunday

Over the past few years I have been taking pictures of our local wildflowers and pretty much whatever flower is in front of me when I have my camera in hand.  I love flowers.  Their beauty always gives me a pick me up, so I thought I’d share some of these photos from time to time in hopes they will add a little beauty to your day.  Here’s one of my potted porch plants from last year.  Can you tell this is one of my favorite colors?
