Beautiful weather, beautiful setting, and beautiful family—what more could a team of family photographers ask for? We had a wonderful time doing this outdoor family photo session for the Estrada family recently. Jason (Dad) is from here in Michigan, and Crystal (Mom) is from Arizona, where they currently live. They were in Michigan visiting family and wanted to squeeze a family photo session into their trip. We’re so glad they got in touch with us! We did this outdoor family photo session at ......

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 to the world baby EJ! When they found out they were pregnant, this little guy's proud parents Eli and Karoline could barely believe it. They, like all new parents we talk to, were completely starstruck when they first saw his face.

We love when families bring in special items to customize their experience just a bit more.   ......

This is baby Ryker! The world welcomed this perfect little gift on May 26th, 2018. New mom Ashley and her husband were the first to greet their daughter when she entered the world as Ashley needed an emergency c-section. The rest of her family finally got to meet her later that day. It was a huge surprise to these new parents when they found out the baby was a girl, because they had thought she would be a boy! As with all Newborn sessions, we have everything you mig ......

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 ......

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 ......

It was so much fun to have this cherub in the studio with us. At first, Lucy was a bit timid with Apple but soon warmed up to her. Lucy came dressed in her Easter finest and loved to toss the eggs around. She did great with all of the different poses and settings within our Easter set. For events like these, we build the sets very large so that there are a variety of settings that we can take your child's picture within thus giving you a wide range of photos to choose from ......

Justine came in for maternity pictures on one of the snowiest days of the year. We took one look at her beautiful gauzy dress and knew that we had to take the shoot outside into the snow. She was due in 10 days but totally game to brave the elements! We stepped outside into a winter wonderland and used the trees and snow as a backdrop. With the light snow coming down, Justine looked stunning. She is one brave Momma. She did the shoot in her bare feet while we w ......

It's time to meet Kasey, Class of 2018, from Anchor Bay High School! Kasey, a self described thoughtful, compassionate and witty person, has plans to attend college after graduation but hasn't quite decided where she wants to attend. She sees herself in the nursing or teaching fields. Have fun this year! You are going to do great things! We met up with Kasey and her mom at Belle Isle on a warm July evening. The sun was shining, Belle Isle was busy but not crazy busy and Kasey cam ......

Up next on the blog are these three fun loving, crazy kiddos! Mom wanted to revisit a watermelon themed shoot that we had done together a few years prior, and include her youngest this time arond, (affectionately given his own hashtag, #toocuteluke). ;-) Photographing 3 kiddos at one time can be challenging and arguably stressful for mom, but we all worked together and had a great time. After what seemed like a million rain related reschedules, the weather finall ......

Welcome to world Paisley! We have been working with this beautiful family for quite some time. We were so excited when we found out the family was expanding. It was a bit tricky getting both kiddos in one picture but you can already tell that they will be best buds. Paisley is a beautiful little model and we are looking forward to watching them both blossom. Thank you for trusting us with your precious and perfect family. ......

We had a great time with little Miss Vivian. She gave us plenty of smiles with the help of mom and dad through each set. She was such a happy and cooperative little girl.

We've been lucky enough to follow this cutie since he was just a brand new little dude. :) Today, Mom and Dad brought him into the studio to commemorate his first year. (Holy cow, how did that happen so fast???) For todays session, Mom and Dad opted to go with our 30 minute mini session and it was just the right amount of time for Lincoln. We got in two sets and two outfits, along with a family photo, before Lincoln decided he was done being a model f ......

Happy First Birthday Connor! We had a fun family photography session this past weekend with little Connor at George George Park. It was a cloudy morning which actually worked out perfectly for us because we could go anywhere we wanted without having to worry about the sun. So we had a great and rare opportunity to utilize the front fountain as a beautiful backdrop for his 1 year photographs. Mom and Dad love spending time outside as a family so they wa ......
