Families & Children

As a film photographer based in Grand Rapids, I have the honor of documenting the sweetest seasons of life, including Bryer’s heartfelt newborn session at home. While her face remains a private treasure for her family, these images capture the quiet love between her parents, her tiny hands and toes, and the tender way dad holds his baby girl. Their beautiful home offered the dreamiest light in every corner, making it hard to stop photographing such meaningful, fleeting moments.

This family session by the lake was simple and relaxed. Mom, dad, and their three boys spent time together on the paddle boat and dock, looking for fish and frogs in the lily pads. The kids were curious, pointing things out as the family enjoyed the calm setting. Their connection and easygoing nature came through […]

I recently had a delightful mini photoshoot at Lavender Life Farm in Caledonia with two energetic boys and their sweet sister. Despite overcast skies, the kids’ charm shone through in their adorable linen outfits. As they explored the vibrant lavender fields, their laughter filled the air. I captured playful moments, from the boys crawling on […]

The quiet town of Hudsonville, Michigan, just got a little livelier with the arrival of three new bundles of joy!

Welcome to the world, little William. We were all so excited to meet you, including your new furry sibling. […]

Family photos are such a treasure and something you’ll never regret taking the time to have. In twenty years your sweet kiddos will be grown up and you’ll want to remember those precious little chubby cheeks and tiny toes. That’s what it’s all about, friends. We met up early in the morning in Grand Rapids […]

Being a family photographer is so incredibly especially when I get to see this family yearly….this year at a gorgeous beach on the shores of Lake Michigan. We originally had planned to go to another beach but they were closed so we switched up our plans fast and found a new one…. I may even […]

Welcome sweet Cohen! We celebrated this sweetie’s arrival after waiting a couple extra weeks…and goodness is he loved! As a photographer, I often get to travel all over the state, and this time I made my way to his home near Ann Arbor for his newborn session. Some of my favorite images include all three […]

John and Erin have a beautiful family. I was their wedding photographer at Wildwood Family Farms several years ago and now they have three precious daughters. It’s so fun seeing them again! When you have so many different photographers to choose from in Grand Rapids for family or wedding photos, I’m always humbled when you […]
