Pine Lake [Michigan family photographer]

We had lots of fun at my friend Mary’s, place on Pine Lake, in West Bloomfield MI,  this past weekend!  It was a beautiful summer day, just perfect for being on the lake.  If you know Pine Lake, you know it is heaven on earth!  The houses that surround the shore line are like decorations on a perfect cake!  The water is deep and blue!  As you can see from the image below, some of us had fun and others were frightened of getting bounced off of the tube!!!  Thank you Mary, we had fun spending the day with young and old alike!

Seaholm High School Senior [Michigan Senior Photographer]

The heat dissipated, the sun shone and we had fun shooting in the cool breezes of the evening!

Thanks to the butterflies and our assistant:

Troy High School [Michigan High School Senior Photographer]

I had a splendid night photographing a lovely High School Senior.  Her Mom was so helpful and had some fantastic ideas!! It was a pleasure spending time with these interesting, stylish, fun, beautiful, industrious and easy going ladies!!  I have a few favorites and hope you do too….I love, love, love the “take time to smell the flowers” shot below.

Nichole Van Workshop [Michigan Photographer]

I had the pleasure of spending time in Salt Lake City Utah with the amazing Nichole Van!  Nichole teaches photography workshops and is an incredible photographer.  She is generous with her information and her time.  The weather and the models were beautiful.  The Wasatch Mountain Range which surrounds SLC is green and makes for some awesome backdrops.  We photographed our models using off camera lighting.  The workshop was challenging and exciting.  I met some fantastic photographers there too!

If you would like to see some of Nicholes work, please visit http://www.nicholev.com.  Below is a small sampling of my images from the workshop:

Shout out to WAZA FC U15 Kelly Boys Team – Soccer State Cup Finalists!

Let’s take a brake from normal blogging and devote a post to my son’s U15 Boys Waza East Soccer Team.  http://www.wazasl.com The team made it past some pretty tough competitors, like WAZA WEST Black and WAZA EAST Black to advance to the State Cup Finals!  We are so proud of all of the WAZA teams.  There were many exciting moments in the qualifying rounds.  One of our boys will be sitting on the sidelines with a broken arm.  He will be missed on the field.  We have friends who are players on the opposing team, Vardar Black.  Good luck to all of the boys on both Vardar and Waza!!  I am sure the games will be hard fought.

The boys have been playing well together, awesome defense and an offensive goal when they needed one for the WIN!!  Their coach, Peter, has done a wonderful job bringing this group of boys together as a team!!!  Good luck guys!  The final games will be held at Ultimate Soccer on June 6th.  Other WAZA teams who made the finals are U16 Black and U19 Black!  Go WAZA!!

Clarkston Family Photographer [ann gordon photography]

I love easy going families and I had the pleasure of spending time with this beautiful, easy going family!    They were so relaxed and casual about being in front of my camera!!  We let the little ones do their thing and explore the landscape.  Oliver, the largest dog I’ve seen in some time, was super friendly and just like the family, extremely photogenic.  So here’s your sneek peak, all curls and dimples and smiles:

Just the “guys”!:

Birmingham Michigan High School Senior Photographer [Seaholm High School]

Time is flying and the school year is almost over!  The weather is warming up and it feels like summertime.  I have mixed emotions at this time of year; friends moving to new schools, some even moving out of the country.  It is wonderful to be excited about new challenges.  While at the same time, rejoicing about friendships made, cheering for each other at sporting events and just plain everyday life!  Our location was stupendous (thank you Ginny), the flowers were in bloom and the sun was shining!  How ’bout those dimples??!!
