Michelle & The Beach :: Senior Portraits, Holland MI

Michelle is a senior at Hamilton High School. We ventured out to the beach for the last portion of her senior portrait session. Michelle was a trooper with short sleeved shirts. It sure was cold, but oh so pretty!
Enjoy your preview Michelle!
This is one of my favorites from the session.


Michelle and her friend Darcy

Another fave, but not sure if I prefer it in color or black and white.

Recently Engaged??

I've been giving alot of thought recently to my business and where I want to go with it in 2010. I would really like to get more than my foot in the door in regards to weddings and I like to run a contest at least a couple of times per year, so after much thought, I've come up with this...
In May of this year, my husband and I will renew our vows to each other. When I think back on the day that I married my husband, almost 15 years ago there are some things that I do not remember. I do not have those memories, because I don't have the pictures from that day. Someone very special to me offered to take pictures that day, with film...and unfortunately the images, after processing, were not very good. Through no fault of their own, their camera just wasn't working properly, so I don't have those images...only the memories in my head.
I love LOVE...I LOVE to watch a groom as he see's his bride for the first time on their wedding day. I LOVE to watch a couple exchange their marriage vows. I LOVE to see the excitement of the bride and groom after they are pronounced man and wife...I just love LOVE!

Are you recently engaged? Do you know someone who is? Have you met the love of your life; your soul mate? If so, I want to know about it!!
I am feeling generous! In honor of my 15th anniversary, I want to offer a special bride and groom a FREE...yes, I said FREE wedding package.

Are there strings attached, you ask?
Well, there are a couple...
1) You must send an email to kathrynmariephoto@att.net.
2) You must include a recent picture of you and your fiancé.
3) Tell me your story. How did you meet? How did he propose? Is there anything special that you want me to know? What will make me pick YOU as the honored recipient of this contest?
4) Include your projected wedding date (I need to make sure that I am open on that day :)
5) What is your vision for your dream wedding?
That's it!
Now...What do you get?
