Baptism

What an honor it was to be asked to photograph this sweet girl's baptism.  The ceremony was lovely and I was so glad to be part of their family's special day.  It's been fun to watch this young girl blossom into a gentle young lady.  Congratulations on your baptism!

Splish Splash, I was takin' a bath....

We enjoyed one of the last warm days of summer last week and captured a few of this little cutie in the tub.  What a sweetheart this little bathing beauty is.  She loved the bubbles!!!

On the move

This is from 3 months ago.  What in the world took me so long to post this, I'll never know.  What an adorable cutie with amazing eyes.  You can't help but melt at the sight of her infectious smile.  Love this girly!

Mackinac Island

So, I'm finally getting to editing my pictures from beautiful Michigan.  I'm starting with one of my favorite spots on earth.... Mackinac Island.   This little magical island is only accessible by ferry in late spring, summer and early fall.  The rest of the year Lake Huron freezes over, making passage to the island available to few that are willing to drive across the ice.  When you arrive on the island you soon realize the charm of a world without motor vehicles with transportation options being limited to walking, bicycles or horse drawn carriages.  Here are a few of my favorites from our time on Mackinac Island...

Summer Swim

I've never been a big fan of summer.  It's too hot for far too long.  However, all that changed three years ago.  I love swim team.  And while I still hate the heat it means that the kids will be out swimming their hearts out.  Here's a few from this season...

Pretty in pearls....

I can hardly believe this little one is 6 months old already.  It truly seems like just yesterday we were taking her newborn pics.  It was cold and December.... a far cry from the scorching weather we had on this very warm June day.  What troopers all the kiddos were as this sweet mom and dad worked with me to get the very best for the shoot.  And like the little performers they are they came through.  Here's just a few from our very fun 6 month shoot.....

Pink Little Princess

Here's a few from a recent shoot with this little pink princess.  Could she be any cuter?!?!?!  If you've looked at my blog before you may recognize this little wonder as my niece.  She's quick to share her beautiful smile with all.  Enjoy these precious shots we got of her on a teeny mini session one morning.  Adorable!
