The Wentworth-Fellins know how to really have some good fun together! These sisters were able to get right into the zone behind a camera so comfortably and fast that it seemed like it was just another typical day of spending great times together.

Alexis had her first communion this month! Her mother wanted to help remember and celebrate this once in a lifetime occasion through a timeless session! She came dressed in her snow white communion dress with a matching veil and rosary beads.

I’ve known Eve since grade school! She currently works as a journalist in the areas of entertainment, politics and social causes.

Even with the rain, the chill of the winter season and the slushy snow at our feet, Andy and Lara were absolute troopers through it all—their positive attitudes were so contagious and took my mind off of the weather, and we stayed out in the woods until sunset was the only thing that got us to head out. 

Cymone wanted to have a session that reflected her work life, so we set out for a coffee shop in downtown Detroit to capture her in her element as a working woman who has all the right tech to get the job done!

Mark and Angel along with their children Theo and Lacy came to Belle Isle and brought their A-game for their session! During my whole time with them they were so lively and playful with each other, time felt like it flew right by.

I spent the day in Downtown Detroit with Candace, her husband Juan and their two sons Austin and Grant! We went from the sofas of the Cadillac lodge in Campus Martius to the downtown streets of Detroit, where string lights leftover from the holidays were dangling above us everywhere we went.

As much as I have my favorite spots at Belle Isle in Detroit, I wanted to make up a creative plan to explore more of the island. I asked Segilola, a blogger who I’ve followed for sometime now, if she’d be up for a photoshoot along with her husband Gabe around the historic William Livingstone lighthouse on the isle. I was so excited that they ended up both wanting to do a session!

If you know me well enough, you’ll find out how much I absolutely love the holidays, including how festive the decor around this time is. Not wanting to pass up the chance to capture how beautifully my home town is decorated, I reached out to Kya, a fellow creative, and asked if she’d like to serve as a model along with her boyfriend Alex for a holiday themed session! She happily agreed and we set our for a historic farm in my hometown that’s decorated just in time for the Christmas season.

Demetrica was my first ever mini session client! We met up at the conservatory at Belle Isle in Detroit (one of my all time favorite shooting locations,) for her session. She had never been there before, so we made sure to circle around the whole building to take everything in and advantage of all the different rooms and areas available that day.

I’ve known Brandy from the company where I interned and freelanced at for 2 years! And both of us decided that now is the perfect time to get some family portraits of herself, her husband Daway, their two children, (and family doggie Kwame,) done now that the leaves have finally started changing and falling.

Bai reached to me through a mutual friend of ours. She wanted me to do a seasonal family session for her just in time for the fall!

I was asked by a friend / coworker if I’d like to photograph a family of friends she had, the Bullards, who recently moved and bought a house.

Jacob & Eva chose to have the first part of their engagement session at The Petting Farm at Domino’s farms in Ann Arbor! We got there around the time the farm opened, and lucky for us, there weren’t a ton of people around just yet and the animals were friendly as much as they were lively! The main attraction for them had to be the cuddly lamas.

Marlaine M.’s 25th Birthday Photoshoot!

As soon as I found out about these two dating, I just had to ask Danielle if she’d be up for doing a couple’s holiday photoshoot with Matao, because I have yet to do a couple’s session and I knew they would be perfect for my very first try!
