I was very excited when Mackenzie contacted me to take her senior pics!  I took her brother’s pics last year and love to see other siblings come to me as well, that makes me happy!!  Mackenzie is going to be a senior at West Ottawa this fall.  Oh and I’m pretty sure she has the longest legs I have ever seen!  I was glad to find out that she puts those to good use and is a star volleyball player.  She already has committed to play volleyball for Marist College in New York next year, congrats Mackenzie!

Mitch : : 2011 Senior!

July 29, 2010

I met up with Mitch a couple weeks ago for his senior pics.  We started at my favorite location in Grand Haven and then ended up to my next favorite location, the barn!  I had a great time chatting with Mitch and his mom and getting to know them.  Mitch is going to be a senior at Unity Christian this fall!

These girls were SO much fun when they came for their session!  I used to work with their mom back in my dental hygiene days so it was nice to see her too and catch up!  I’m thinking that there is NEVER a dull moment at their house…hehe!  These sisters will also be welcoming a new baby into the family this winter, how exciting!  Here are some pics from our time together…

We tried and tried to get a pic of the three of them laying on the floor. I think at this point Joy (the oldest one on the left) starting giving up on her younger sisters…

Kendra : : 2011 Senior

July 12, 2010

Kendra is going to be a senior at West Ottawa High School this coming fall.  Kendra has a love for photography and actually does some of her own photo work on the side (she’s pretty good)!  But this time Kendra had to be on the other side of the camera and get her senior pics taken.  It was so nice meeting you Kendra, it was a lot of fun.  Enjoy your pics!
