Holland Harbor | Anchorage Marina

SURPRISE!!!! I am back with some photos for your lovely faces. Today I went driving down Ottawa Beach road by the Lake to capture some photos. Here are a few I took by the Holland Harbor; which Big Red is located. 

The pier off the harbor. During the Summer everyone jumps off of this pier. It's amazing!

Ah, there she is. Big Red. :)

Then I drove down the road a few miles & Anchorage Marina was located right on the shore line. I walked out on the docks to snap a few photos.


Marathon whatcha doing way out here?

I hope everyone is doing well & is healthy please visit my facebook page:

2's a company | Nuckols' Family

This is my first family I shot with that was referred to me by another client. Let me just say I was nervous as all get out. Almost all of my clients have been people that I have known. Even if I have only talked to them a handful of times I still knew of them. Betty called me out of the blue one day wanting to set up a shoot for her "Christmas" photos. We joked about her being a little late on getting those out. We set a date & the deal was sealed. It was going to be her, Shan (hubby), J, C, & E. In order from oldest son to youngest daughter, with a daughter in the middle. I kept their names private out of respect for the family. Also you wont be meeting J, C, or E, for it was their parents wishes. I totally respect that. 

Without further adieu (had to google how to spell adieu not going to lie) haha

Shan & Betty

Shan & Betty have been together for 17 years & have 3 kids. 

Shan is in the USAF & has an amazing personality. Betty is super sweet & the cool hip mom. These two where so laid back.

Their love for one another showed through they way they look at each other. 

Shan didn't want to dance but his lady requested & he happily agreed! 

A fairy tale ending. 

Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Nuckols for letting me see into a little piece of your life. Your kids are wonderful & beautiful little people.

Jozo Family | River House

When we went home to Michigan for a the week I had booked a few shoots (who am I kidding enough to make me go crazy lol) to keep up on work. I love growing my portfolio & working with people. I am such a people person sometimes i drive myself nuts! My two lovely cousins wanted family photos done with their separate families. I jumped to this because I grew up with these women & their amazing mothers!! Down below are photos of my oldest female cousin on my mother's side of the family & her husband & son. Enjoy.

My mother works for the daughter of Louie Padnos & their River House is amazing. They let me take the photos there. Thanks ladies:)

They have all these one of a kind structures in the yard! 

& the River was dried up but the wheat made from some awesome shots!

The dock was so long & narrow ( I was scared for my life) not really! But hey I can dream.

Dawson is such a hoot. He has Asperger syndrome. This makes him super hyper but super fun! He makes me laugh anytime I am around. 

I hope you enjoyed these as much as I did taking them. I am not showing all of the photos on here because the families have yet to look through all the photos. Thanks to Carol & Shelley for lending me their amazing home.

Red Bricks & Babies | Stone Family

Patti is a HUC at the hospital I used to work at. She wanted family photos done for the holidays. She brought along the whole family:) they where so much fun. The morning was crisp & nice. The clouds were perfect & the sun was not harsh at all! I met the Stone family downtown at this awesome warehouse that I fell in love with.

Here is the whole family.

Patti & Kevin

Savannah, Michael, & the baby.

The baby was not having it. She wanted to do her own thing. She was so funny at the end of the shoot she found a stick she was content with. 


Thank you Stone family for letting me photograph your beautiful family!:)
