You all might remember Molly from earlier this fall when I photographed her at the point of Old Mission peninsula. A couple of weeks ago we got back together to photograph the second half of her session at the Traverse City Commons to incorporate the fall colors into her session. Fall is definitely a beautiful time up here and I am glad Molly took advantage of this opportunity.

Ben and Ashley were a blast to hang out with during their engagement session in Traverse City, MI. We roamed around the streets of downtown fighting the cold weather and finding the perfect spots for these two to love on each other. Afterward we couldn’t resist but warm up with some hot coffee, Liz was the instigator in that decision. Ben and Ashley will be getting married at Timberlee Hills next May and we can’t wait to see these two again.

Suttons Bay, MI Senior Portrait Photos – Scott

This session was a hard one to schedule because of Scott’s involvement with the Suttons Bay Norsemen Football team and also because of wedding season, but we finally managed to squeeze him in. Scott is a starting linebacker for the Norsemen and helped lead them to a Northwest Conference title. The last year that Suttons Bay won that title was when I was a senior in High School, yeah class of 2004! Scott is an avid hunter and fisherman and during the session, he was telling be how he was going to go and pick up an ice shanty to prepare for this years season of ice fishing. Good luck to you during hunting and fishing season and enjoy your senior year Scott!

Bellaire, MI Wedding Photos – Ross & Allison

A couple of weeks ago we had the pleasure of spending the day with Ross, Allison and their wonderful wedding guests in Bellaire, MI. Ross and Allison are graduates of Purdue University, come to think of it, pretty much everyone at the wedding was from Indiana or attending Purdue University because when the fight song came on, it started to get a “little bit” rowdy in the Bellaire Ballroom at Shanty Creek Resort. Ross and Allison’s wedding was a great way for Liz and I to finish the 2009 wedding season. Thanks so much Ross and Allison for letting us be part of your special day!

Suttons Bay, MI Senior Portrait Photos – Chris

Chris and his mom showed me a good time around the farm a couple of weeks ago when we photographed his senior portraits in Suttons Bay, MI. To my surprise I was already quite familiar with their farm because my grandparents used to live right down the road and I also have been through their orchards many times on the snowmobiles. Chris is currently a student at Suttons Bay and plans on attending Lake Superior State University after he graduates in May. Chris also plays soccer for the Norsemen and from what I hear, they are a force to be reckoned with. Enjoy your last year of high school Chris, and best of luck to you!

It was fun hanging out with Abby and her mom a couple of weeks ago at the Traverse City Commons to photograph her senior portraits. It was a cold afternoon but Abby and her mom came prepared with coffee and tea in hand, while I supplied the hand warmers for them when their warm beverage ran out. Abby is a student at Traverse City Central and when she finishes with school, she plans on attending Azusa Pacific University in Los Angeles, CA to pursue a degree in international studies. Enjoy your last year of high school Abby and may your future be blessed!

Suttons Bay, MI Senior Portrait Photos – Andrew

When I met up with Andrew and his step father a couple of weeks ago to photograph his senior portraits in Suttons Bay, MI, he pulled up in his HUGE Jeep towing a souped-up golf cart on a snowmobile trailer. My first impressions were “SWEET” and then I was a little envious, in a good way of course. I remember being that age and having cool toys like that. Oh how the time flies by. Andrew is a student at Suttons Bay and the TBA Career Tech Center and after he graduates in May he plans on attending Northwestern Michigan College for a couple of years and then maybe transferring to Lake Superior State University to pursue a business degree. Enjoy your last year of school Andrew and hang on to those toys as long as you can!

It was fun hanging out with Sarah and her sister a couple of weeks ago to photograph her senior portraits in Traverse City, MI at a very unique house along the Lake Michigan lake shore. Sarah is a student at Traverse City Central and when she is done with school this Spring, her plan is to attend University of Michigan to study health or language. Enjoy your last year of school and good luck on your journey!

I had the chance to hang out with Josh, his mother and his girlfriend a couple of weeks ago to photograph his senior portraits in Suttons Bay, MI. Josh is a student at Suttons Bay High school as well as taking a website development course at TBA Career Tech Center. He plans on attending Northwestern Michigan College for a couple of years and then transferring to a trade school.

Traverse City, MI Engagement Photos – Jason & Liz

Dan — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 22:06:50 +0000

Despite how threatening the weather was a couple of weeks ago, it held off just enough for us to photograph Jason and Liz’s engagement session in Traverse City, MI. Actually the cold weather helped us to make some good photos because Liz always wanted to be tucked into Jason’s arms. We had a blast getting to know these two, shoot we had so much fun that we just had to get coffee with them afterward. We can’t wait for Jason and Liz’s wedding next September, especially to see how crazy their friends and family can get in the photo booth!
