A Lake Michigan family photography session is always a good thing.  The gorgeous lake, the sand, the warm sun and a family spending time together makes me happy.  This beautiful family all found time out of their busy schedule to come together for a week long vacation….and to kick it off….they had me capture precious memories for them!  Oh goodness, I feel special!

With ten adults and seven children, it was sure to be a crazy time but I brought along my trusty partner, Kristi, and we made it happen!  There was dancing behind the scenes to make the kids smile and I’m sure I wore several pairs of “bunny ears” that I never knew about, but I’m always up to losing a little pride to make these photos turn out good.  It is ALWAYS worth it!!

Terrence & Jeanne – I hope your wonderful family had a blast on vacation together and I hope these photos bless your walls for years to come.  What a joy it was for me to capture them!

We took the large group photos but also took mini sessions for each family, allowing the kids to play in-between.

What a beautiful momma right here!

I love the reflections that the wet sand gives off….

Oh my!  Isn’t this cutie’s smile the sweetest?

I snapped this one just while the kids were playing and without any posing….I think it was my favorite!

Cousins 🙂

The two who started it all…!

These two cute kids made me laugh….they couldn’t stop smiling once mom and dad got out their dance moves!

Trevor and Andi are engaged and live in New York City….so a fun little session on the beach was perfect!

Thank you for trusting us with your family’s memories.  What a fun day this was!
