We made it! Ann Arbor, Michigan Newborn Photographer

Posted in J man, kids

Hi there! I finally made my way through the cardboard jungle to my computer…and desk. It feels so good to be editing pictures again. After I take time off I always question whether I love it THAT much, but once I get back behind my camera or editing photos on the computer I am reminded that YES, I do love it THAT much. There is something so theraputic about creating art.

I am loving my new area. It is so different than Santa Clara, but Ann Arbor is so beautiful in a totally different way. It is green and lush (and cool) out here. My creative juices are flowing. Everywhere we drive I am scouting out great locations to photograph. There are so many old buildings, rivers, forests. I am very excited! My studio is getting all set up. I just bought a new prop today and can’t wait to scour the antique stores to find some more cool props!

On a sad note, my awesome pink chair did not do so well on the trip out here. She now has a big hole on the back and arm. Not sure whether I should try to recover it myself (I may be crazy), retire it, or spend a small fortune having someone recover it for me. It was a sad moment to be told it didn’t make it. I may have shed a tear or two over it.

So, if you are from Ann Arbor or the surrounding area or know someone who is, please feel free to check out my work and contact me for a session.

Here are a few pictures of my Jackson that we took before we moved out this way. I can’t believe how big he has gotten. He starts kindergarten (all day!) in a week and a half. Yes, I am excited and yes, I am sad. He is growing so fast. I unpacked some pictures of him at 6 months and the time has flown by since then! I sure love this guy!
