The Lopez Boys

I have been photographing this family since before these boys even came into this world. It’s crazy to believe that Shannon is about to have her third boy and I’ll have the opportunity to photograph him as well! I can’t wait to meet the little guy.

For the last three years I was convinced the twins didn’t like me. They never wanted to smile for me and they ALWAYS cried when they saw me. BUT this time was different. It was a nice May Saturday and the sun was shining. It was a little windy but that was alright, we made it work. Shannon had signed up for a Mommy & Me session only to turn it into a full session surrounding their family. On this day, these two didn’t cry when they saw me, they didn’t turn away, they ACTUALLY SMILED! I got smiles. I cannot even believe it. They gave me big cheeses and continued to do it throughout the session.

We strolled around downtown Ionia on the beautiful brick Main Street and stopped at a few random places throughout the hour we spent together. Shannon wanted a “city” look so we did the best we could in this small town of Ionia utilizing the brick walls and alley ways. They turned out beautifully! I sent Shannon the gallery and she was ecstatic to see them, she said “These are exactly what I envisioned! Perfect!”

Happy birthday to these two cuties, I cannot wait to photograph them for years to come. I especially cannot wait to catch their faces the moment they get to meet little brother.

I hope you’ve enjoyed these just as much as I do! Thanks for reading ❤

Danielle- Class of 2019

Meet Danielle!

Danielle was selected to be our Senior Model from our Instagram Giveaway that took place a few months back. We were excited to have her join our little Brick Street Fam and we found out why last weekend during her first session. She is such a joy to photograph! Easy to get along with and such a beautiful personality. She made it fun and easy for us and I think we did the same for her. We are definitely excited to do a few different types of sessions with her as well as her full senior portrait session. Keep a look out for those throughout the up coming year!

A few fun facts about Danielle:

She is involved in a lot of actives such as Cheerleading, Basketball, Snowboarding, and more

Class of 2018: See Ya Later!

As we finish up with the class of 2018, I wanted to share a few of our favorites from the last year. What fun we have had with all of these fellow graduates. We were able to watch them grow throughout the last year and even see some changes from their first sessions into their final sessions.

One of my favorite things about photographing seniors is seeing the changes that take place from our initial consultation all the way through their gallery reveal. A lot of these students, we meet at the end of their junior year and continue working with them throughout most of their senior year. I get to watch them grow as people and see them make their way into adulthood.

We have had so much fun photographing seniors all over the state and beyond. We’re really hoping to do a few more traveling seniors this coming year. I travel to Traverse City area quite often throughout the summer and will be giving the option to photograph you up in the Traverse Bay area or other gorgeous surrounding landmarks. This year we were able to make it to an awesome variety of locations including Ionia, Portland, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Penn State, Stanton, Lowell, and more!

Here is to the next chapter of your lives! We want to wish all of our Class of 2018 seniors the best of luck in their future endeavors and look forward to seeing what you will accomplish. Thanks for another wonderful year of senior portraits, we cannot wait to get started with the class of 2019!

Class of 2019 seniors are now booking dates! If you’re part of the class of 2019 seniors and are interested in a date, please don’t hesitate to get it scheduled. Our schedule is filling quickly! We pride ourselves in giving our seniors a handcrafted experience that will be more than just a photo shoot. We make it an experience!

Ramey Family

Well, we have been slacking at blogging this week since it took us until Thursday to make our first post of the week. On top of being sick, we’ve also had an amazingly busy week photographing different styles of sessions and meeting with two different brides about their upcoming weddings. It feels great to be getting busy again! We’ve got our Spring Experience coming on Saturday and it looks like its going to be a gorgeous morning for those.

Anywho, we wanted to share one of our most recent sessions with you! Marisa has been photographing Cody and Savannah’s family for the last few years and they just recently had another session with her. They are such an adorable little family and we are loving these shots she got while walking around downtown Ionia!
