Lake Michigan Photographer

Lake Michigan is such a stunning place and I’m so lucky to be a photographer living near it! The setting is neutral and simple and always a favorite!

I met up with this beautiful family on a warm summer evening to take photos but also to laugh and have a little fun. Preston and Scarlett are such gorgeous kiddos and were so great for the camera (their mom is a photographer after all 🙂 ).

Enjoy this preview!

Look at that red hair! Love it!

Marcie, mom, did a great job choosing outfits for the session! The greens and blues pulled perfectly from the water and treeline and Scarlett’s pink skirt paired perfect with the sky!

I think every family needs a walking on the beach shot 🙂

Yes, most photos are best smiling, but I just adore this shot of Scarlett. Her somber stare and that gorgeous hair….just perfect!

Shaun & Marcie – thank you for meeting me at the beach and allowing me to photograph your gorgeous family. I hope you enjoy these images for years and years. They certainly are some of my favorites!!
