Oh guys….I don’t even know where to begin with this special day. Kyrie and Andy were so much fun to be around. I still can’t believe that we were lucky enough to be such a small part of their day. Wedding photography in any location is special but taking photos for a couple at Pictured […]

Hoffmaster State Park was quite a favorite place this year for family photos and portraits! The background is simply stunning and is sadly one of the few public beaches in West Michigan that has a good amount of beach left. I just love it there! I met up with this beautiful family on an early […]

This sweet family is Haven and her momma! We met at Calvin College this fall for their family photos and had so much fun. We threw handfuls of leaves, laughed until our cheeks hurt, walked over waterfalls…..I’d say it was way more than just a boring ‘ol photoshoot 😉 I can just hear Haven’s silly […]

We met at the beach in Muskegon (PJ Hoffmaster Park to be exact) for the family photos and it was absolutely beautiful. It was early October and sunny so […]

We looked for ducks to feed but settled for squirrels, laughed and laughed till our faces hurt and just had a great time. I love sessions like these. Look […]

Do you remember this adorable family? I photographed Steve & Annette’s wedding a few years ago and now they have sweet little Evelyn (see her newborn photos here). Now that Evelyn is one we decided to meet up at Lake Michigan for an updated family photo session and I think it’s one of my most […]

West Michigan is absolutely beautiful in the fall so family photos at an apple orchard are a no-brainer! It is the perfect setting where families can run and play, where I can capture them enjoying the beautiful sunshine together and even capture images with my favorite – texture, color and lots of foreground/background. Absolutely perfect! […]
I’m a wedding and portrait photographer, and I’m also a disability advocate working to make the wedding industry more accessible, thoughtful, and welcoming. I believe love stories deserve to be told in spaces where care, dignity, and access are part of the experience - not an afterthought.
This work is deeply personal to me. I’m helping build an industry that’s ready for my daughter, Gabby - so that when it’s her turn to dream, celebrate, and be celebrated, the world is already open to her, just as she is.
