J'Adore Rueger Family

I had the pleasure once again of photographing a friend's family of 3...soon to be 4! I got to see cute, small, downtown Tecumseh.

Christmas is Coming!

On Braylen's first day of preschool, I got to photograph these three beautiful little girls! Mom was ready with their Christmas dresses and candy canes. Each of the older two girls, Elissa and Sarah were excited to have their "own" pictures after the group shots. We were so blessed to get a "warmer" fall day at the beginning of November.

Pretty in Pearls

Mary just had her 1st birthday a few weeks ago. What a little doll! Big blue eyes and a smile to melt your heart! I just love those cute little baby teeth! She was a trooper playing outside on a chilly, Michigan fall day. She sure loved the leaves, grass, sticks, pearls, whatever she could get her adorable little hands on. I had a little trouble getting her to look at my camera instead of her mom...she is definitely a momma's girl!

Apples and Tutus

I cannot believe these cuties are almost 1!! It's been so much fun seeing them grow "though my lens". Between Haynes' big, beautiful eyes and Lena Grace's "I'll do it my way" attitude, mom and dad have big (cute) trouble on their hands! I can't wait to see them both walking together. Enjoy this little sneek peek.

Sassy in the Sun!

A toddler being a toddler...

I have been waiting patiently to get my lens focused on this beautiful little darling, her big sister and family! I love all the sassy hands on hips! What a knockout that momma is only 1 month post-birth! Thank you Deedee, Jeff, Sylvia, Sabrina and Alexandra for a fun morning! I have many favorites from this morning! It was hard to stop editing/posting.

Susanna and Jeff : Girls in dresses and Dudes in ties...

Trying to get a quick peek?

What fun Susanna and her girls had getting ready!

There are so many details to get into place before the ceremony. Here are just a few shots of those fun details and special moments.

Susanna and Jeff: the day they became Mr. and Mrs.

What fun Kristin and I had capturing the special moments of Susanna and Jeff's day! This beautiful, fun and loving bride made everyone smile. The ceremony was held at St. John the Baptist Catholic church in Ypsilanti. After the beautiful mass, we headed over to West Park where Susanna had a perfect, rustic trellis in mind for her photos. Here are just a few teaser pics to take a look at before she heads to her new married life in Australia. More to come soon...

Twins and a 3yr old!

I walk in to this family's house as the kids are finishing dinner. I smile and say hi to Lena Grace, she smiles back. I walk over to say hi to Haynes, he takes one look at me and screams bloody murder! Oh boy! Not a great start... I back away and say "let's start with big brother". Thankfully, big brother, Malachi is 3 and all smiles and silly faces! What a complete joy to photograph-as long as I'm fast :). Mom, Julie let me know that Haynes had been especially grumpy that day-whew! Glad it wasn't me! We had a little bit of a rough start, but little Haynes was smiley after a little dinner. I love that he still has the soft, wispy peach fuzz he had at his 3month shoot! Lena Grace was slow and shy with the smiles, but we didn't have as much crying! How absolutely adorable is she in her cute little dress? I am thrilled to have the opportunity to photograph these adorable children!
