Morgen & Friends | Prom | May 7, 2016

Miss Morgen and her pals had me come out and shoot some photos before they went off to prom. Oh, how I remember those days . . . I got stood up for three proms so personally I don’t understand the draw, but whatever. I guess it is a great excuse to dress up. We don’t have many of those options these days. I think we should start a Formal Friday trend, where everybody comes out dressed to the nines and there is dancing and shenanigans. Come to think of it, what do 18 year olds do these days??? Off hand, I can’t think of a single place for big kids to go hang out socially. The mall? Gross! Someone should do something about that. Aren’t there over 1000 kids that age just from TCAPS? What DO they do?

Garfield Auto – Exterior Photos – New Building Photos to Come in the Spring

My favorite automotive repair center in Traverse City is re-vamping their facility to have classic resto shop out back. This is good news since my ’64 Chevy truck always needs a loving touch. These guys save my butt every time I roll in last minute with a clank or rumble!

We had a special treat in the studio today. Christopher brought his lovely ladies along with him. Olive-puppy made a new small-person friend, we played with the props in the studio, and had a family photo – why not, right? 🙂

Sean & Anastasia | Wedding | November 21, 2015

For those of you who don’t know me, I have a big soft spot for a man in uniform. And a man in uniform next to a beautiful woman is a combination that makes me love what I do. Now, put that man in uniform and pretty lady as amazingly warm and kind humans, that makes me REALLY love what I do! Sean and Anastasia had a church wedding on one of the only days with snow this November. So of course, we went and played in the snow! These two and their group were fantastic! And I didn’t even get hit by a snowball!

Thank you, Sean and Anastasia, for everything that you do! It was my pleasure serving you!
