The Wedding of Lorran Garrison and Justin Tracy

I had the pleasure of photographing for Lorran and Justin this past August.  They were so much fun, and it was the first wedding reception that I had ever photographed that was interrupted by a Ninja Fight!  Luckily, the Bride and Groom came out unharmed from their Ninja encounter.  They were so daring that they were both offered Harley Davidson motorcycle rides from some locals.  See some of their photos below, including one of me with the beautiful couple.  Thank you Lorran and Justin for making my job so much fun!

This has been the third year that I have had the opportunity to photograph the Lansing High School graduation.  I have always had a wonderful time donating my time and providing each student with a free portrait.  This year was especially fun because I was able to photograph candids before and after the ceremony and post them on Pictage.  Congratulations to all of the 2008 graduates!

February 9                                                                                                               I am very excited to announce that I will now have the ability to post all of the photos of my clients online after their event, or portrait sitting.  This will allow anyone to view the post, and clients have the option of making it password protected.  From there, clients will be able to order prints, albums and books from me online.  While I always provide all of my clients with albums and cd's, this will allow friends and family to view the photos as well, and order them online.                                                                                             A friend of mine had posted her photos online in the same way, and I was able to view photographs that I would not have seen otherwise.  I think that this will be a wonderful new tool especially for brides, wanting to share their weddings photos. 

March 20                                                                                                                 I have had the priviledge of photographing a very special little girl every month from the day after she was born until her first birthday.  Now we are documenting special occasions and holiday portraits about every 2 months.  Below are a few photos from our "Easter Photo Shoot".  She has become increasingly comfortable with the camera, which allows me to capture her natural facial expression while she plays.  View some of my favorite photos of this beautiful baby below.  Has anyone ever seen more beautiful eyes?
