Rockford Michigan Maternity Session

Families & Children

There is this field in Rockford Michigan that is basically a unicorn so I was so happy that Erin agreed to have her maternity session taken there. The whole field is neutral and soft, making the subject stand out and their connection be the focus. I just love it. This little family of three is […]

Families & Children

Being a family photographer in Michigan can often times be tricky because of weather…especially in the fall. This year, autumn has blessed us with some stunning light but also some rain.
