Tag Archives: High School Senior Pictures

Sydney is one of those kids who seems to do EVERYTHING well — top honors student; skier; color guard and more. Thank you so much for letting me help commemorate your senior year! You’re going to do wonderfully at Michigan State University in the fall!

I hope you’ll pardon a personal post, but I couldn’t be any prouder of this guy. Jonathan (yeah, my kid) is the epitome of character, hard work and talent. This year, Jonathan accomplished his primary goal of finishing his High School forensics career as a State Champion in sales, all while maintaining perfect grades and being great to his family and friends. Yeah, I gush a little, but he’s mine for a little longer, so I get to play the mom card if I want to.

Good luck in the fall at Hope College, and don’t forget to text your mom!

Although my photography studio is located in Grand Rapids, MI, I also meet clients around the country for destination sessions (NYC, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami and more!). Kelsey traveled to New York City with her mom and sister for a “girls’ weekend,” and I was lucky enough to share the day with her shooting all around the city. Kelsey started her day with hair and makeup at The Plaza Hotel, which positioned us perfectly for a walk through Central Park to capture unique and iconic images. After a break for dinner, we reconvened in Times Square for a night-time shoot under the big city lights. Thank you for meeting me in NYC for your senior pictures, Kelsey! What a great memory!

My next NYC Destination Sessions are October 19 & 20, 2017! So excited to be going back soon— get details here…

To learn more or to secure one of these sessions, CONTACT ME HERE and I’ll send you my Destinations Magazine with all the details!

Hannah traveled over to Grand Rapids for her Cinematic Session, and we had so much fun together! A 3-sport star, Hannah is Gull Lake High School’s Athlete of the Year and is proof-positive that great things come in small packages!

This was an extra fun session for me— not only is Megan a dream to photograph, her mom, Michelle, is an awesome photographer in her own right. So between the three of us, there were plenty of creative ideas to go around.

Last summer I had my first photo shoot with Bella from Portage Northern High School. As you can see, it was amazing! I can’t wait to photograph her again in a few weeks in New York City for her Destination Senior Session!

Boy, did I have some awesome 2017 seniors to work with this year! Blaire is a top scholar and multi-sport athlete from Kent City High School who just won Districts in varsity softball… Good luck next weekend at Regionals!

Tori is flat-out amazing— a top honors student, gifted actress and vocalist. AND she is going to study Biological Sciences in college, just like I did! The world needs more biologists with fashion sense, amiright??

Who says you can’t have both beauty and brains? Mackenna was just named Salutatorian of her graduating class at Cedar Springs High School! Congratulations, Mackenna! Look out, world!

Lauren traveled to Grand Rapids with her sister for a combined senior session for two girls— an awesome and fun way to make memories for the start of a senior year! Good luck in your next chapter, Lauren! You’re sure to go far!

I love it when families travel from out of town to visit me in Grand Rapids, Michigan for their senior pictures. Not only do we get to have fun creating beautiful images together, but I get to show off the beauty of Grand Rapids in the fantastic summer months! Thank you, Meagan, for traveling down to the city for your senior session!

I’ve had the privilege of photographing Maddie several times over the years, and she has always had such a sweet spirit — ever since she was little. It is so gratifying to see her now as a beautiful young woman! Congratulations as you head off to Central Michigan University (my alma mater) in the fall! Say hi to the Biology department for me!
