Portraits

This beautiful family belongs to Brian, Benjamin and Christine. We met up for family photos on the most perfect fall morning at a local apple orchard in Grand Rapids. I adored Christine’s blush dress against the backdrop…the softness of her dress just flowed so nicely into the pretty scene that nature laid out before us. […]

I have been so excited to share these images…maybe it’s because I love the location or maybe it’s because I simply adore this family. Either way, I think you’ll love them too!! I met up with these four on a rooftop of a parking garage in Grand Rapids for their family photos. It may seem […]
