Buchanan, Michigan Portrait Photography | Casey O’Sullivan
Laura contacted me to see if I was interested in photographing the March of Dimes’ ambassador babies for their Chef’s Auction at the Palais Royale. She had this awesome idea to have images of the each child photographed professionally and then printed as large storyboards to place around the event. After I sorted out the details with Laura and Denise, we started to talk about Larua’s son, Casey. I very much enjoyed hearing Laura talk about the jokes he likes to tell and how she couldn’t wait for him to entertain me.
When the day came for me to photograph his session, he was exactly the way I had envisioned; silly, funny, and oh so outgoing. It was so easy to get a genuine laugh out of him that he really made my job seem effortless. He would laugh at himself, dance, or tell me crazy stories and jokes that I would never have thought of. I enjoyed photographing this little boy and can’t wait to do it again.
PS. Happy Birthday Laura!!!

Niles, Michigan Newborn Photography | Baby Keston
In 1999, two amazing people were married. Since I was just starting out my adventure into middle school, I didn’t have the pleasure of being their wedding photographer. I did, however, have the opportunity to hear their story of how instead of going on a big trip (away from the cold Southwest Michigan fall/winter) they had this remarkable little boy.
Although this little trooper was 28 days old, he was still very small, perfect, and still able to fold into the fetal position. He allowed me to poke him and interrupt his slumber many times, but fell asleep pretty quickly so I could capture his beautiful little face so peacefully. After all, I have never met a mother that did not enjoy watching their newborn sleeping, soaking in the fact their little baby had finally arrived.
It was a complete and utter honor to have photographed this couple’s very first child. Their reactions and emotions during the session alone were so amazing that I very quickly realized that this little boy is one in a million.
This is by far one of my favorite images from the session, maybe even one of my favorites that I’ve ever photographed.

South Bend Product Photography | Michael Kors Very Hollywood
So, for Christmas this year, I took the initiative and bought my own gift from Chris. Of all people, I would know best of what I REALLY wanted, right? Well, about two weeks before Christmas, I was doing my morning routine updating the accounting and noticed there was a purchase from Sephora. I surely didn’t buy anything from there, I swear, but Chris did. I wasn’t THAT upset that he got me something else but I wish I would’ve been surprised on Christmas.
Now, before I move on with the rest of the story, I have to confess; I am OBSESSED with the perfume samples that come in my Elle and Harper’s Bazaar magazines. With that said, I just about did a back flip when I opened my gift from Chris. Sephora has this AWESOME Sampler kit so you can test a selection of designer perfumes. That’s not the best part. I was psyched when he told me that after I sampled them all and decided what I liked best, I redeem the included $$ certificate and I get a bottle of my favorite. It was a very tough decision because there were 3 that I was crushing: Donna Karan’s Cashmere Mist, Juicy Couture, and Michael Kors Very Hollywood. Now, if they had the option for Vera Wang’s Look, I would not have needed to sample anything else. But, it wasn’t a choice so I chose Very Hollywood. I got my “free” bottle yesterday and I am totally infatuated with it.
Thank you, Chris, for getting tired of me smelling like “paper” and getting me such a brilliant gift. You are so totally awesome.
