Photographing Gabrielle was such a joy — and an amazing experience for me! Never before have I been serenaded with a honest-to-goodness harp concert while taking senior pictures… Gabrielle is an incredible talent with years of hard work in Grand Rapids Youth Symphony and StageGR productions. And more importantly, she is a kind, thoughtful and all-around beautiful human being. Congratulations on your graduation from Grand Rapids City High! I can’t wait to see where your next chapter takes you!

“Effervescent” is a word that comes to mind when I think of Olivia — wow, what an up-beat and positive young woman! It had been a joy to get to know Olivia and her fantastic family over the last few years, and I am sure she is going to excel in her college years at Baylor University. So excited for you!

A candidate for most fashionable senior session — this was amazing, Isabella! Thank you!

Audra’s session was flat-out beautiful. So natural, so gorgeous. I love how her fashion choices complemented the cool urban settings and then transitioned effortlessly into airy fields of wildflowers and quaint village storefronts. Lovely!

I’ve loved Elise’s family FOREVER, so it was a special treat to photographer her on what turned out to be the hottest day of the summer! Elise is pretty much the sweetest girl you’ll ever meet, and you can bet that I’ll be rooting for her as she starts her varsity lacrosse career at Central Michigan University. Fire up Chips!

I love it when girls can show a range of styles in their senior sessions, and Kendall sure did just that! From classic sophistication, to playful to sporty, Kendall covered it all. Congratulations on your graduation from FHC and good luck at Michigan State University in the fall!

Kristen’s senior portrait session had a little bit of everything: Classic styles, flowering fields, rustic village locations and urban architecture. The end result was not only a great set of images of a lovely young lady, but Kristen’s personality captured in keepsake photo art for her family to enjoy for years to come. Thank you, Kristen, for letting me be a part of your senior experience!

I’ve known Connor’s family for his entire life, and so I know how proud they all must be of this young man’s many accomplishments. Good luck, Connor, as you head off to Emory University in the fall— you’re going to go so far!

Possibly my most stylish session from the class of 2018 (no offense, girls!), Austin made the drive to Grand Rapids to show off his GQ style. We had so much fun during his session and laughed the whole time. Senior guy sessions are a treat!
