We had so much fun adventuring Glen Haven and hiking some dunes for their portraits. We feel so blessed to have friends like Ben and Joanna. Though we could go on and on about their beauty and the love these two share, we will let the photos speak for themselves.

When Gus and Melissa reached out about family portraits, I was so excited! I had the honor of photographing Gus and Melissa’s wedding back in 2018. When they mentioned the photos, they let us know that they were staying in the same location they had their wedding. A beautiful family cottage on the lake–it was the perfect setting!

It was a beautiful day for these Elk Rapids Family Portraits. The sun was shining and the kids were excited and full of energy. You can see their goofy energy in the photos, partially prompted by us to 'tickle one another' or 'wrestle with dad'.

Immediately after the ceremony, Cameron and Jordan tucked between the cherry trees to enjoy a few quiet moments to themselves. All around them, the cherry trees shone iridescently in the sun. In their faces, the reflection of love and adoration for each other. It was so lovely to witness.

Noah and Britney planned an intimate May wedding with their close family. When the pandemic would not allow for all of their friends and family to be present, they realized how much more important photos would be for their day.

Despite the chilly temperatures and slippery slopes, Zac and Joelle were up for the hike. They stood there, hand and hand with the icy blue lake stretching on and on beyond them. It created the illusion of being on top of the world.
