Ells Family
I posted a little version of this story over on my Instagram page (I am @caryn_ashley over there,) but I had to share here, too. I photographed the Ells family 5 years ago. Their kids were much smaller and didn’t look like stunning young adults yet. When they showed up for their shoot this year […]
Williams Family
One of the benefits of my job that I never could have anticipated is how it keeps me connected to people. I get phone calls from friends and classmates that I haven’t had the chance to connect with in years. They mention they saw my photographs somewhere on social media and we schedule a shoot. […]
Miller Family
Photographing my family- I am going to be honest with you on this topic. The times when I get to photograph my family are some of my very favorite shoots. My nieces and nephews are my favorite people in the world and they are constantly making me smile. There is just one problem when it […]
Baby Henry
Henry made his arrival into the world a few weeks early, and it sounds like he certainly took his mom and dad by surprise! I photographed Sarah’s baby bump a few weeks prior. We left the shoot saying, see you in a month or more when your little guy arrives. Little did she know we […]
Bilski Family
Happy birthday, Addison! We had way too much fun photographing Addison for her first birthday. While she was a little unsure about me at the start of her shoot, I would like to think we ended it as best buddies. It may not have actually been me, but rather the bubble maker that was constantly […]
Solon Family
These pictures are from a sweet Sunday afternoon shoot on Father’s Day. I met Lennon and her parents at Heritage Park in Farmington to capture a few pictures in honor of Lennon’s first birthday. Shooting on the holiday really reminded me why I became a photographer. It is such an honor to capture pictures that […]
Baligian Family
I always have such a nice time when I get to photograph the Baligian family. They seriously make having 5 kids look so simple (and growing up in a family of 7, I know the chaos first hand!) The siblings are so sweet to each other and I can’t get over how their oldest daughter […]
Jack + Kathleen
When Jack and Kathleen first contacted me to photograph their wedding I was so excited. We all went to college together and there is something so sweet about capturing the wedding day of fellow Albion College Britons 🙂 I think part of it is that it instantly takes me back to the day I married […]
Kelly’s Baby Bump
Oh mommas-to-be, you are just so freakin’ beautiful! There were a few weeks at the beginning of the summer where it seemed like every shoot was a maternity shoot. And these ladies were all glowing! They are growing a human, juggling life, and looking like super models while doing it- you rock, ladies! Kelly was certainly […]
Nik + Elizabeth
You guys I am so excited to share this one with you. It quickly has become one of my favorite shoots to date! I met Nik and Elizabeth in Holland for their engagement session. We started our time together at the same spot where they met, Hope College. From there we snapped a few pictures […]
