last chance for christmas mini sessions at an unbelievable price!


more of gorgeous maggie!

I am having so much fun editing this session I just had to post some more images of this beautiful Senior!

September 5, 2010 - 8:45 am Julie - These are so terrific! Her eyes are amazing! That black and white one is my fav- though I absolutely love the color in the first one!!

September 5, 2010 - 12:24 pm kari - Laurie these are amazing!!! I LOVE the red door in that last one!!! Great color and just BEAUTIFUL pictures! You did an awesome job and she is a beautiful girl!

magnificent madisson!

I know that everyone loves a chubby baby but I think I do even more than most people because both of my kids were so skinny when they were babies.  I just LOVE chubby baby legs and often wonder why chubby legs aren’t still cute at my age.

Madisson was a DREAM!  Out of all the 1 year olds I have ever photographed she definitely got the messiest and I just loved how into that cake she was!  She barely looked up at all the whole time and then she started smearing it around like finger paint.  She was SO awesome!

Heather and Guy, thank you for sharing your little pumpkin with me today, I truly enjoyed every minute with her.  And Guy, it was really nice seeing you after all of these years.  St. Hyacinth seems like a life time ago.  I guess it was because we are really old.  Ha Ha

I hope you enjoy your sneak peek!

September 1, 2010 - 3:03 pm Gina - that last photo is to die for, laurie!! parents will treasure these forever!!

September 5, 2010 - 8:44 am Julie - Such a little cutie pie! Beautiful pictures!!

beautiful senior…

It was an absolute honor for me to photograph this lovely young lady today.  I grew up with her mom and I can hardly believe that little Maggie is already going to be a Senior in high school!

She is clearly beautiful on the outside but she is equally beautiful on the inside just like her gorgeous mom!

Kathy and Maggie, I had so much fun with you both and I hope you enjoy this sneak peek!

August 28, 2010 - 12:44 pm Dana - What a beautiful girl!! And, you did such a fabulous job capturing her, Laurie. Well done!

August 29, 2010 - 9:45 pm Nichole - Love the 2nd one, that wall makes her look awesome what a beautiful girl!

mine…

It was time for me to take some new pictures of my children since my son is now 8 and Grace seems to be growing so fast!  They are truly the lights of my life and I am so blessed to have them as my own.

Jacob is very sensitive, caring, cautious, and SO funny!  Grace is sweet, carefree, loving, and SO funny!  They both have such unique traits and I sometimes look at them, eyes filled with tears, thinking whatever did I do to deserve these two beautiful human beings!

I know everyone thinks their children are beautiful and all children are but just look at these two faces!  I look at these images and my heart sings!


August 24, 2010 - 7:10 pm cassie s - Laurie, absolutely beautiful! Wish my kiddos smiled at me like that:)

August 24, 2010 - 9:00 pm Nichole - They are so darling love the 1st picture of your daughter should be in a magazine!

August 24, 2010 - 10:23 pm Amy - Super cute Laurie, as usual! They grow up too fast!!

August 24, 2010 - 11:19 pm Julie - Laurie seriously could they be any cuter?!!! Love Grace's outfit and her smile is just contagious! You do such great work!!

August 25, 2010 - 8:01 am Colleen - You have such a gift to captuure their beauty so perfectly!!!

August 25, 2010 - 4:19 pm Kristina Notley - Are you kidding me?!?!?!? My eyes have welled up! Every time I see pictures of these two I think they can't get any cuter . . . and then I see a new set of pictures. Absolutely beautiful, Laurie! xoxo

another fabulous family!

Yesterday I got the chance to spend some time with one of my closest friend’s extended family.  They are all so warm and kind and it was a pleasure photographing them.  They all showed up in brown which I absolutely loved and you can see for yourself what a beautiful family they are.

The kids were so cooperative and little Miss McKenzie stole my heart.  Whenever she realized her mom wasn’t holding her, her lip would pucker and she had the saddest little face I have ever seen.  And then she would be all smiles and so sweet.

Colleen, thank you for giving me the chance to spend some time with your wonderful family.  You are one of the kindest people I have ever known and I can see that your entire family is just like you too!

I hope you all enjoy your sneak peek!

August 24, 2010 - 11:21 pm Julie - These are so great! I love your post processing! Can't wait to get family pictures done by you this fall!! :)

August 25, 2010 - 8:04 am Colleen - Love Them!!! You always amaze me!

August 25, 2010 - 9:52 am Nikki - These are all just FANTASTIC!!! You are ROCKIN' the family shots girlfriend!!! Great job! Beautiful family too :)

September 1, 2010 - 8:48 am Jeanne - Beautiful pictures!!

September 2, 2010 - 12:03 pm Kristina Notley - How did I miss these? Beautiful!!!!! xoxo

birthday boy!

Sweet, sweet, Cass.  I met this little cutie about 3 months ago when I had the pleasure of taking his 9 month pictures.  It seems like I just blinked and now he is turning 1!  He is the happiest little guy ever!  He never fussed a single second after the session when I was wiping him down with washcloths trying to get the frosting off of him.  He is like a bright light that just lights up the world and I am SO happy I got the chance to photograph him again today.

Meaghan, thanks so much for bringing Cass in today and tell Cooper it was so nice meeting him too!  Enjoy your sneak peek!

lovely lili…

Oh this sweet little baby girl with her huge dark brown eyes just melted my heart!  She is 3 months old and I had so much fun hanging out with her and her mom and dad last night.

3 month olds can be hard to photograph because the only position they are usually comfortable in is lying on their back which makes it hard to get variety from a photo session but this little cutie had so many adorable expressions that variety for her mom and dad won’t be a problem at all.  In fact I am wondering how they will ever choose from all the great shots I got.

Stephanie, thank you so much for bringing your darling little angel in for pictures.  I am SO happy you purchased my baby plan and I get the chance to watch her grow!!

Enjoy your sneak peek!

August 11, 2010 - 10:18 pm Stephanie - Laurie, thank you so much for taking our pictures last night. It was so much fun, and you were so patient with Lili. We LOVE the sneak peeks and can't wait to see the rest!!

August 12, 2010 - 10:21 am Amy - LOVE them Laurie! Great job!

August 22, 2010 - 10:09 pm Nikki - STUNNING!!! What a BEAUTIFUL baby~~and such fantastic images. You are AMAZING, Laurie!!!

August 30, 2010 - 2:48 pm Andrea - What a beautiful session! I LOVE that basket shot!

September 1, 2010 - 1:31 pm Yolanda - These are so GREAT Laurie! I loved the shots of Stephanie and Fernando with Lili :) You take awesome pictures!!!

lovely family…

One of my closest friend’s husband contacted me about taking some pictures of his whole family.  Getting to know the extended families of my friends is another HUGE bonus of my job.

I met this wonderful family in Frankenmuth and I had so much fun with this gaggle of girls!  You just know that the men in this family have to be the best guys in the world to be surrounded by all of these women!  And they are the best and so are all the females in the family too!

Thank you for allowing me to spend some time with your family yesterday and I hope you all enjoy these images!

August 9, 2010 - 10:58 pm Carrie - Love the pictures of the Russell family!!! :-) Everyone looks so beautiful- what a great day to be out!!

August 10, 2010 - 12:05 pm Jennifer - Thanks Laurie for taking our pictures! They look great and I can't wait to see the rest. Thanks again! The girls love the pyramid.

August 13, 2010 - 12:47 pm Bridget - WOW - Thanks Laureie! They look great! It was fun and so nice of you to meet us @ Frankenmuth!

dow gardens fun!!!

I had three fun sessions at Dow Gardens on Saturday and wanted to post some of my favorite images from the day.

I took 1000 pictures.  SERIOUSLY!  I have been asked why in the world I take so many pictures and I think it’s better to show you rather than tell you why. Just look at the picture of the two boys walking had and hand.  I was following behind them to get a shot of them from behind walking together.  If I had stopped shooting after I got one or two I would have pulled my camera down and would not been able to get it back up fast enough to capture him turning around and smiling at me.

So yes, I get 100’s of duplicates because I click my shutter so much but in the midst of those duplicates usually is a gem that I am so thrilled to have gotten!

Thank you so much to the families who came out on Saturday.  I had so much fun and I hope you all enjoy your sneak peek!

August 9, 2010 - 6:04 pm Brenda - Laurie, These pictures are wonderful! Thank you so much for taking the time with us -- and for getting the personalities of the kids to come alive. I can't wait to see the rest!

August 9, 2010 - 6:09 pm Angela - Laurie, these are fantastic! Kim, I love each and every one of these! Great color choices, too! They're just beautiful!

August 9, 2010 - 6:10 pm tara k - absolutely adorable, laurie! looks like a fabulous time was had by all. beautiful work! :)

August 9, 2010 - 10:14 pm Ginger Hollister - LOVE them! Can't wait to see the rest! Simply beautiful!

August 10, 2010 - 7:57 am Kim Konuszewski - Laurie - these are awesome!

August 11, 2010 - 8:08 pm cassie s - Laurie, These are beautiful! To hard to pick a favorite, but the little girl in blue and her expression is priceless!
