First Communions for Catholic families are a very special occasion. Tommy and Emma have both had Communion sessions with us. They are long-time clients of ours and we treasure the friendship we have built with their family over the years. Emma’s Communion photography took place in 2018 at our New Baltimore studio. We utilized flowers, several settings and mirrors to produce some unique visual effects. Tommy had his photos taken at George George Park this past year. Emma joined him in a pr ......

Rebecca and Jared Chauvin asked us to join their family at George George Park for a family photo session. We love this park because of the fountains and number of family friendly locations to take pictures at. Rebecca said she enjoys it as well due to its beautiful settings. The Chauvin's have twins, Gavin and Rena. These cuties are TWO years old! They looked adorable in their outfits. Rebecca kept it simple and bought the clothes at Janie and Jack.& ......

We loved having Ava at her session. Her parents, Nancy and Tom, were hoping for casual and fun photos when they came into the studio. We think we got it! Ava looked sweet in her pink dress that was once owned by her mom when she was a baby. This dress is even more special because it was made my Ava's great-grandma! Using an heirloom like this in photos makes them so much more personal. Our clients have great tips and tricks that we like to pass on. This i ......

Welcome Lemmen Family to the blog. We enjoyed a session with the Lemmen Family in Downtown New Baltimore. We weren't convinced the rain would hold out for us, yet again, but it did. The beauty of a nearly rainy day is that the sun stayed hidden which allows us to take our clients anywhere we'd like and not worry too much about sun in the eyeballs, (not fun for anyone)!! Total bonus for this family especially since we were downtown during an event on Washington Street and had to ......

Hi gang! Today on the blog you get to meet Chloe, the 6 pound, 14 ounce bundle of sweetness who belongs to Melissa and Kris. This session took place in the Capture a Moment Photography Studio, and we were able to capture some of our favorite newborn images to date! Melissa reports that her favorite part of our session time together was how laid back it was and how we made her feel right at home! Thanks, Melissa, we try to set a calm and relaxing environm ......

Rachel and Nathan Landoski are the proud parents of Camden (2) and Chase (1). It is a pleasure to have them as repeat clients of ours! Rachel initially booked a location shoot at the Mt. Clemens Train Station however we actually ended up with too much sun! The station has full sun at a certain point during the day and without clouds, we needed to make a location switch. Plan B: In-studio with a train station backdrop! The kids are at the age where they LO ......

Ellie (9 months) came in for Easter/Spring photos as part of her First Year package. We did Christina's maternity photos before she had her little girl and she decided to purchase the First Year package at that time. Christina likes the package due to the props, pricing and the fact that we do well with kids & babies (we hear that often!) This package allows families to document the milestones that take place during your child's first year. Kids change so quickly dur ......

There is only a short window of time to capture the newborn moment of tiny toes, wrinkled backs, sleepy faces and cupid lips. Hannah and Brian brought their bundle of join in for newborn photography recently. Baby Aurora is pretty as a princess which is one of a few different inspirations for her name. Aurora was born on her grandfather's birthday which is something that her parents treasure. She was the perfect little one during her photography session. Hannah brought he ......

Mallory and Piper came in for Easter photos. Mom was hoping for a classic and spring type of setting and chose the set display with Apple, our bunny. Piper is 4 years old and Mallory is 5 months. They are new clients to Capture A Moment and we are thrilled to have them join our family. Mallory is the happiest of babies according to Mom. Piper was so easygoing, sweet and helpful at the photoshoot. They each wore blue which are colors that worked well f ......

We met Sarah at an Easter session and she lit up the studio! Sarah is a really social child who loooooves to make people smile. We laughed the entire time! Sarah turned on the charm and she really enjoyed sitting with Apple, our Easter Bunny. Sarah toddled across the studio in the cutest Easter shoes with bunny ears & a rabbit tail on them. Hillary and Carl are Sarah's parents and they explained that her Grandma purchased the outfit. Using something special lik ......

How do you photograph a surprise marriage proposal on a New Baltimore pier with nowhere to hide?? Kirby and his fiancee, Leah, were going to be in town to visit family. Kirby and Leah live in Arizona and Kirby had thoughts of popping the question to Leah while in Michigan. Being around family to celebrate this occasion was an opportunity that Kirby couldn't pass up. He enlisted his Mom to help hatch the plan. Although the idea was to propose on the shores of down ......

We were thrilled to see this family come in for Easter photos. Little Abby has some of our favorite photos from last year's Reindeer Day in our studio plus she came in last year for Easter too. So. Darn. Cute!! Lisa and Alan are the sweetest and their little girl Abby is just over 1-1/2 years old. They were hoping for some cute Easter photos of their toddler checking out a real bunny rabbit. Abby loves animals and they knew this would be fun for her. ......

Gabrielle was hoping for a Princess look for her most recent photo session. Cinderella is Gabrielle's favorite princess! She enjoys getting dressed up and wears dresses to school often so Gabrielle and her mom took the princess theme and went with it. The tiara she wore was from their recent Disney trip where Gabrielle and her sister had princess makeovers. Gabrielle's choice for her other outfit was because it looked like a ballerina dress. She takes ballet twice ......

This lil' cutie is new to our studio and we just looooove her name. Very unique! Emery is TWO! We are so happy that she came in to celebrate such a big birthday with photos. Megan (her mom) brought Emery in and was open to leaving the backgrounds up to us. We have some clients who like to go through all 100+ but most clients are content to sit back and let us work our magic. We are super open to whatever level of input our clients want to have. We always shoot ......

Look who is 5!! Adelyte came in for her annual birthday photos at our studio. She has been coming to Capture A Moment since she was a newborn. We asked her Mom why our studio and she replied The staff is warm and patient and the photos are awesome. When Addie was younger, she hated having her picture taken. But the staff has been so patient with her that now she says she’s so excited to have her picture taken by them. Great to hear Kelly! We love happy clie ......

The Wilson family chose us for their first professional photo session as a family with the 4 of them. Ashley said they were looking for photos that would be light and spring like. Jace doesn't like getting his photos taken but he did great in our session. Doesn't hurt that we've got a couple of great cars that the little guys love in their photos! He is a typical boy and loves trucks and trains. Both Jace and his sister Aria are a bit stoic in the pics but it captur ......

One of the reasons we started Capture A Moment is because we knew we could offer a better photography experience than what was out there. Not only the big box studios but also the smaller experiences a la Santa and the Easter Bunny. From the time you book your appointment ONLINE, you realize that there is a difference. We offer this service so that you can book your appointment at your convenience in the comfort of your own home. Why Easter with us? A big reason is A ......

Riley came in for his 5 month pictures and wow'd our hearts again. He is growing up to be such a big guy that has such a happy & smiley demeanor. Riley lit up the studio the entire time he was there. We had a few extra people working that day and it was so much fun with all of us watching his adorable photo shoot. Lots of laughs! In addition to a number of different sets that we used, we also took a family photo of Riley, Mom and Dad. What a great way to rememb ......

Funny moments capturing smiles and laughs with lots of cake smashing was the response we got when we asked Jenny and Bill what they were hoping for with these 1 year pictures. They certainly got it! These pictures capture E Destructo which is Alex' nickname due to his ability to break and destroy things (check out the pic of Alex going after his sister's cake!). Emilia is the shy, quiet twin who loves to snuggle. Both of their personalities certainly came out with thes ......
