Erica at the Park

It was a fun day out with Erica at the Park. She was such a good sport....dodging those bugs on the bridge, walking around in the frigid water, and waiting for the rain to come and go. She was easy going and full of smiles and fun. By the end of our session, Erica got the model moves going. Thanks Erica for allowing us to be a part of your senior year. One of the funniest parts of doing this shoot was that we got a chance to shoot video too. Best wishes on all of your endeavors Erica. Here are some of my favorites from our session. Enjoy!











































Thursday

Celebrating Birthdays

I was honored to be able to capture the special day for Archana's two daughters who were celebrating their 8th and 2nd birthdays. The guest wore beautiful saris with vivid colors. It was also the best Indian food that I have ever tasted! What made this party different from all others was the unique party favor that Archana was providing for her guest. She had the wonderful idea of providing each guest/family with their very own formal portrait session and picture. Here are some pics from the night's event of the two birthday girls and Archana's family.

















Tuesday

Family

I got a chance to spend the afternoon with Shelia and her family. All her kids came back home for the weekend to celebrate Tessa (their grand-daughter's) 1st birthday. Although it drizzled a bit, we were still able to get some fall colors outdoors. Everyone in the family was definitely a "Go Blue!" U of M fans. Hope you had a wonderful birthday Tessa and enjoyed lots of cake too!




















Wednesday

Buffalo Wings & Rings

I was invited to the grand opening of Buffalo Wings & Rings out in Chesterfield. It is the first restaurant of its kind here in Michigan. I was very honored to be a part of this special event. The decor inside was very cool....I loved the colors and the different textures all over. Check out the unique lights that were upside down steel buckets. Take a look at some of the delicious food and I am sure it will make your mouth water. Go for a night out at Buffalo Wings & Rings and satisfy your taste buds. Best Wishes Michelle & Kyle for a successful restaurant!!


























Sunday

Bethany in the Alley

I had such an enjoyable time out with Bethany. I got a chance to get to know her more and find out what she plans for after high school. She will be a senior this coming year and we got a jump start on her senior pics. We talked, laughed and enjoyed stomping around town to find some great places for photos....especially in the alley!! Growing up watching "The Three Stooges", I had to stop and have Bethany join Curly, Larry and Moe. We had so many wonderful pictures it was hard to pick from, but here are some of my favorites. Blessings to you Bethany when graduation finally arrives!




Saturday

Baby Riley

It was a pleasure to meet Riley for the first time. I could tell that his mom and dad loved him very much and were so glad that he finally arrived! He was only 2 weeks old during this shoot. We caught many different expressions of Riley but I think by the end he was tired out. He was such a good sport too because eariler in the day he had his Dr's visit and a few ouchy shots. I know that mom and dad are going to enjoy the many stages of Riley's life....here are just a few of the beginnings.
