As a Kalamazoo family photographer, one of my greatest joys is watching families grow, and I've had the privilege of photographing this family for all 13 years I've been in business! We had been planning a session around downtown Kalamazoo's Make It a Great Day mural since last year, but when we arrived, a parked car was blocking our perfect backdrop. So we changed plans, wandered downtown, laughed a lot, and made the most of a beautiful morning together. We even managed to sneak in a photo at the mural, car and all! A little reminder that things don't always go as planned, but you can still make it a great day.

The best family photos aren't always the ones we planned. Sometimes, they're the moments that happen along the way!


If you're looking for a Kalamazoo family photographer who embraces the unexpected and captures your family just as you are, I'd love to hear from you. Let's make some memories together!
