Maybe you have heard someone say, “The best things in life are worth waiting for and take time.” or “Easy come, easy go.” It isn’t until you experience this for yourself that you fully understand how wise these trite but true sayings are. We would know! Leidy made Josh wait YEARS before she would even […]

You know that couple that kind of looks like each other and act like each other and you swear they were probably made for each other? Yeah, that is Allyson and Derek. And these two were adorable in their romantic Michigan country engagement photos. What really stood out to us about these two is when […]

Robinette’s Apple Orchard We have been spending a lot of time at Robinette’s lately but the Michigan spring blossoms are just too beautiful to miss for Aleny’s quinceañera.

Robinette’s Apple Haus The opportunity to photograph Vanessa and her beautiful family at Robinette’s Apple Haus has been something we have been looking forward to for weeks! Robinette’s Apple Haus and apple orchards are beautiful in the springtime and much like Riley Beach, it’s one of our favorite spots to shoot. While we don’t do […]

“Excuse me, the park is close. You are going to have to leave.” Shooting an engagement session in a new location is both fun and exciting. We typically come with several ideas in mind. A few ideas lined up and shots picked out. And there are some locations like Chicago with so many good places […]
