Meet Gibson. He and his parents recently invited Lu & I into their home for a lifestyle photo shoot. This is the type of shoot where we spend some time with the family, and carefully capture portraits as the family naturally interacts. Gibson is one lucky baby! He has some crazy cool artwork of him and his parents displayed at their home. Besides some yummy oatmeal and

Last week one day, I spend a week at Silver Lake. Really. We were shooting for the local visitor bureaus' promotional literature, and literally took in a week's worth of the area in a mere 12 hours. And for your benifit, I not only recommend enjoying the Silver Lake area, I recommend doing so in a week, and not a day! :) - Jon

Instead of relying on our favorite tree at our favorite park, we like to push the limit. Always. And with this particular engagement photo shoot, we pushed it right over the edge! Thanks to Brian and Tara for allowing me to unleash the creative artist. - Jon

When we first started the blog, we blogged nearly every wedding. It's sometimes difficult to keep up with all the excitement of everything we shoot, and decided it is finally time to blog some wedding shots. Here are a few random shots from a few random weddings. - Jon

We enjoy sponsoring these little league teams, but with this team, we also coached! And we threw the players and parents a party at our studio too. Here are a few shots from the camera room. - Jon

This week we finalized some Photo Shoots for senior portraits, and WOW, what a blast we had. See the updated and retooled gallery on the website. The camera room at the studio was energetic and the location shoots were unforgettable. Bring it on. Come join in the fun; you make your statement, and we'll make the art! You want the cool stuff, right? Check this: we offer digital pics for

WOW -- What a week! Not certain if you knew it, but we are proud members of the Michigan Lodging and Tourism Association. For the forth consecutive year, Picture Michigan photographed the biggest and best tourism show in our great state. Here are the highlights, which include a coach, butterflies (at Meijer Gardens of course), a governor, other various politicians, and a whole bunch of great

Yesterday, Picture Michigan hosted a special Open House for the BCHS Competitive Cheer team. We had some fun in the Camera Room and even had a fire truck at our disposal. This particular team was special, as all five of the outgoing seniors have been together on the varsity team since they were freshmen. They even took the Conference Championship this year! Congratulations on an

This is a capture of the WOOD TV website this morning. Yet another historic structure burns to the ground. As I post this, it appears the building will be a total lost. Here is the same building from last summer. Where are the groomsmen when you REALLY need them?? - Jon

Our kids are growing up.... It's still sinking in that this past summer our two oldest daughters were sitting behind the wheel in driver's training. Yesterday, seeing them all dressed up and sending them off with their dates, we can't deny the beautiful young ladies they have become. Yesterday's occassion was TriUnity's homecoming. Myranda and Cassidy embarrassed. I guess they should have

It was a blowout, but a great game. Neither team conceded and played hard to the final tick. Some highlights. Happy Winter Homecoming everybody! - Jon

This past Saturday, a few of us took the journey into Saugatuck for some coffee and a prime parking spot. This popular summer-resort beach town is most definitely open for business in the winter. It's very serene and placid with the snow and diminished crowds! Our uncommon spokes-models for Uncommon Grounds. - Jon

Congratulations Greg & Holly! From the vows to the honeymoon, WE'RE THERE! Okay, seriously, the entire day was way amazing, from the ceremony at Mayflower in EGR to the opulent recepion in the 95-year-old Pantlind Ballroom at the Amway Grand Plaza. The Pantlind Ballroom is one of our favorite place to shoot! Click the PLAY icon to enjoy the sneak peak Greg & Holly's friends and family

Wow, quite the lightning storm last night, especially considering how deep we are in the autumn season! The weather in Michigan can be so fickle. Remember the autumn color tour from last year? - Jon
