Your Story

Every family has a story - woven through everyday moments, shared traditions, and the bonds that hold you close. Here in the Great Lakes region, those stories are shaped by the rhythm of the seasons, time spent near the water, and the places that anchor us. My portraits are about more than what you look like; they reflect who you are, together. Honest, heartfelt, and grounded in place, these images become part of your family’s legacy - something to be seen, remembered, and passed down.

Black and white portrait of a woman smiling, with her hair tied up and wearing a black top.

By Beth.

Your family is art—full of connection, movement, spirit, and story. I’m here for the real moments—the ones that feel like you. I’m not afraid to get sandy, soaked, or follow the kids into the waves, if that’s where the magic is. With a mix of playfulness and purpose, I’ll help you capture the kind of images that reflect your connection, your joy, and the season of life you’re in—rooted in the beauty of Northern Michigan and all the wildly wonderful moments that come with it.
