Ionia Maternity | Lopez

Shannon was just about to have her third child when she decided she wanted to do a couple maternity photos. With her being an amazing client of mine and absolutely gorgeous, I jumped on the opportunity because I knew she would let us try out a couple new things. She wasn’t afraid to get in the water and she let us toss some awesome looking powder behind her all while wearing a couple beautiful maternity gowns. I am so in love with these images, and this girl is stunning! Having only a week left in her pregnancy at this point, she rocked her session!

We were able to go to a couple locations around the area of Ionia, including the State Park, and ended up in my parents pool so I could test out my new underwater housing for my Sony A6000. The wheat field and clematis were a perk as well.

I was able to go meet the new little babe last Friday and let me tell you, he’s just as beautiful as his mamma. You’ll get to see those images soon ❤

The Future Mr. & Mrs. Russell

Malerie emailed me last fall about scheduling her wedding for October of this year. I met with her a few weeks after and we were able to talk about their wedding day and the dream that she hopes it will be. We booked her date and then started planning for their engagement session. After their engagement date getting rained out the first time around we were finally able to get a new date set for last week. It was a hot June day, filled with mosquitos and ticks, but that didn’t stop us from capturing the love that these two share for each other and their dogs.

These two really show what true love is. I had them fill out a little questionnaire so I could get to know them a little better prior to their session date. I was able to learn so much and really incorporate their style into their session.

Malerie and Nathan have such a sweet “how we met” story. They met at a party when she was just 16, they exchanged numbers and never thought they would really see each other again. Years later they were able to reconnect and the budding love story began! ❤

A few awesome things I learned about these two was their love for the outdoors. One of their favorite things to do together is fish and camp, especially up north. They love exploring our beautiful state of Michigan as a couple along with their pooches. They also volunteer to foster dogs while they look for their fur-ever homes. They have fostered 14 altogether already! How cool is that?!

Along with fostering 14 pups over the years, they have fallen in love with 3 of their own. Their little family is just the cutest and these pups can’t wait for their humans to get married.

We are looking forward to your fall wedding Malerie & Nathan. We are honored and excited to be the ones to capture it ❤ You’re such beautiful people inside and out.
