I last photographed Silas and his family during the pandemic and was excited to reconnect with them after 5 years! His mom asked for some family pictures in addition to his senior pictures which I thought was a great idea. Although it was a warm evening we were lucky to find locations in the shade and had a breeze. Silas plans to go to be duel enrolled in college classes during his final year of high school and wants to study social work after graduation. Since I also have a degree in social work (in addition to the one in photography) it was fun to talk with him about the things he wants to do in the field! Here are some of my favorites from Silas and the rest of his family :)
Joseph's Senior pictures
Another class of 2023 senior session to round out this year! Joseph’s mom contacted me in November asking about taking his photos by the blue bridge specifically, and since this time of year Michigan is not exactly pretty outside (or warm) we made the most of the indoor spots downtown Grand Rapids. I love the sky walk that connects the hotels because it provides so much natural light, the stairs in the lobby of the JW Mariott are another favorite indoor location. Joseph was so easy going that we got lots of great photos in a short period of time. I had fun meeting him and hearing about his plans to study interior design at college in the fall!
