Amanda + Sean + Finn the Dog: Fenner Nature Center Fall Maternity Photos

Want to check out more recent maternity sessions? Follow my latest maternity work in my client galleries >

When Amanda reached out to me about taking maternity photos with her husband, Sean, and her dog, Finn, I had to do a double take. It turns out that she and Sean just moved to the Lansing area from Washington DC in August (Jeff and I just moved back from our eight month adventure in DC in early August too). They’re having their first baby (a boy) this December (Jeff and I are having a girl at the end of November). I even have the same favorite stripped black and white maternity shirt that Amanda has.

Sean and Amanda—thanks for having me out. I had a ton of fun photographing your session, and I’m so excited for the two of you. Congratulations!

Bridget + Evan: Michigan State Alumni Chapel and Henry Center Wedding

I’m finding that I’m becoming a bit of Michigan State wedding expert—living in East Lansing has led to many fun trips to the MSU Alumni Chapel. As an MSU grad, these weddings never get old. I was honored to shoot Bridget and Evan’s wedding on a beautiful day in September. Many thanks to Lauren for second shooting and to my husband, Jeff, for helping to carry this pregnant lady’s extra bags. Congratulations to Bridget and Evan! Thanks for having us along for your wedding day.

Nursery Reveal

We’re putting the final touches on our nursery in preparation for the arrival of our daughter at the end of November. It was a fun transformation (view a before photo—the room was a mess when we moved in). We got creative with a combination of old and new items. The big white art hanging in the first photo was originally a headboard that I made out of  Inhabit Wall Flats. The dresser was an old hand-me-down from my parents that I painted white and replaced the knobs on last summer. The side table and Ikea bookshelf/desk combo were also pieces that we already had and repurposed for the nursery. Our only major purchases were the Joya Rocker, knitted poufInca Flush Mount Ceiling Light and Stokke Sleepi Convertable Crib (we like that it can grow with her, and because the crib is oval, I had a chance to get crafty with my sewing machine to make custom sheets).

Now we just enjoy our hard work and wait.

Lauren+Adair: Fenner Nature Center Engagement Session

Fenner Nature Center is quickly becoming one of my favorite fall photo spots. I’d happily photograph every single engagement session there between October 1 and October 31—it’s just gorgeous. I’m actually hoping to get back there myself later this week to take some maternity photos. Lauren and Adair—thanks for having me out to celebrate your engagement.
