Just look at these girls!!!!

I just love meeting with this family every year! These pretty girls are always impeccably dressed, and so much fun!

Wide Open Spaces.....

Finally, a perfect night for a session at Van Hoosen Farms! A perfect place for a spunky girl to run and play and look beautiful, don't you agree?

Fall is here...

Wow! These two boys sure were beautiful, and the evening was perfect for early Fall portraits. Enjoy this small preview, there are many, many more to see when the proofs are ready!

End of Autumn shoots....

Its getting dark early now, and cold outside! This may well be the end of my outside shoots for the year before next Spring....and it was absolutely beautiful! This blue eyed boy had a lot of patience for me, and it the lighting was perfect.

Although I haven't shot in Royal Oak much lately, I think that I will have to keep it in mind for next year! It is unique, and beautiful, too.

Of course, such handsome boys make it easy.....here's a preview of the many, many images from this session!

Another Pretty Baby!

It seems that lately, babies are everywhere!

And, fortunately for me..I get to photograph the prettiest of them!

This little girl was so happy, and we were able to get sooo many nice images. This post doesn't even come close to representing all of them....but here is just a few!

THE SWARM!

Everything was set up for an unusually beautiful shoot...a gorgeous family, with two stunning little girls in dresses, even a sweet little pup. The park was stacked with autumn colored trees, and a river complete with bridge. There was only one drawback.....the MOSQUITOS. And I don't mean just a few...I mean, a swarm bad enough to turn someone into a human pin-cushion, chase-us-away-from-a-beautiful-setting bad. So, sadly, we had to rush across town to a more comfortable location.

Happily, this family couldn't photograph badly if they tried. So, here's a few from our rushed session..I hope the girls aren't still itchy!

Fall Color...here it comes!

With my last few sessions being non-model released, I decided to post a few of my own kids, in front of some beautiful ivy that is changing color in my own backyard. It is sooo rich and gorgeous, I wish I could find a wall full of it!

My oldest son, who plays travel hockey, also scored his first goal of the season...GO SAINTS!!!
