Jon senior session (Ann Arbor, MI)

Sunny days can be a challenge for portrait photography...especially when you don't know your surroundings. I've been to Ann Arbor plenty of times but, never really walked around or explored much so, I let Jon lead the way. He had some great spots picked out and we had a great time.

Lennox senior session- Grand Rapids Portrait photography

I first met Lennox about 4 years ago when I photographed his family's portrait. It was exciting to photograph him again and see how he has grown in to a very bright, mature and handsome young man.

I picked the first location, an old train trestle downtown...at first, the sun was way too bright and making me work hard to avoid harsh shadows and highlights.  Then Lennox picked the second location (top secret) with a cool wooden dock, paths thru tall switchgrass and a really cool hill parked under high voltage power lines. By the time we hiked up the massive hill, the sun was starting to set and the light was awesome. We would've stayed longer but we didn't have flashlights to make the trek back through the woods. I can't wait to take someone back there to my new favorite portrait location!!
