Scotland Summer

My daughter got married in a Scottish castle. I know, right?! Those words are still kind of hard to comprehend. We had a once-in-a-lifetime week’s-stay at Winton Castle, thanks to Sir Francis Ogilvy, his incredible family and unbelievably kind & gracious staff. But it never would’ve happened without our new in-laws, The Gardiner Family. I have shared fun photos of the event elsewhere on social media. But here are some of my other favorite photos from our epic 2½ week journey.

On one of our last nights in Scotland, I managed to stick my iPhone a few inches out of my hotel window and snap this dramatic picture of the sun setting over Inverness, reflected in the hotel window.

Baby Photography

For a professional photographer, having a granddaughter is like a chef discovering an all-new ingredient.

My baby daughter delivered a baby daughter, who immediately became my favorite person to read to, photograph and love. I’ve been updating this page every week or two, whenever a new, fun, cute, cool photo or video pops onto my pixels.

There’s nothing better than playing in the living room.

The Natural World

I’ve been struck, lately, by some beautiful nature I’ve encountered nearby. I generally have my phone, if not my camera, with me. I’m just updating this with more pictures (and video) as they show up in front of me on Troy Trails, my home and elsewhere around town.

I captured two very different views of a pretty pond near my home, just weeks apart.

Troy Democrats Picnic

It was great seeing old friends and photographing new ones at a candidates forum in the park. One of my favorite ways to help contribute to the Blue Wave is by using my decades of experience in journalism to effect positive change. Here are some of my favorite snaps from the event.

U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens tells the enthusiastic crowd she’ll do everything she can to protect a woman’s right to choose.

My baby kisses her baby. This is my favorite snap of the year.

Weddings at Troy Historic Village

If Hollywood location scouts were looking for a town from yesteryear that exuded pure Americana, all they’d need to do was take a quick trip to the middle of Troy, Michigan. If you were unconscious, then woke up in the middle of the Troy Historic Village, you’d swear you’d just time traveled a couple hundred years into the past.

I have been lucky enough to photograph several weddings at The Village. Here’s a smattering of my favorites.

“It’s like rai-ain, on your wedding day …” — Kelly and Colin tied the knot at The Troy Historic Village. The rain tried, but couldn’t dampen their obvious joy and love.

Hazel and Matt’s Vaccinated Wedding

Physicians Hazel and Matt celebrated their fully-vaccinated wedding and invited me along to take pictures. I had a blast covering it and truly enjoyed spending time with their family and friends.

I also loved their wedding hashtag #mattgoeshazelnuts

The couple was game to pose for my fun portrait outside in the heat of the night as the Dream Cruise roared by.

Taylor, Rex and Baby Avery

Throughout these Times of Covid, I’ve been able to photograph my pregnant daughter and her dog from a safe social distance out on their front porch. Now that baby Avery has arrived, I get to share the fun photo series. She was conceived and born during this international pandemonium and we are thrilled that everyone is safe and happy.
