  • Betsy’s Blog

    Born and raised in Michigan, art has always been my passion. I love creating personalized portrait artwork for my clients. My husband and I, along with our baby boy and two cats, know from our own experience that memories are important. We would love to help you plan your next portrait!

Newborn Sneak Peek – Baby M!

Baby M. came to the studio for her newborn portrait session… and here are two of my favorites! We also did some portraits of the whole family, but you’ll have to wait to see those.:)

Sooooo adorable, I just love it when we can create artsy portraits of sleeping newborns!!!

Chelsea Family Portrait

This summer we did a fun family portrait session in Chelsea! It included three generations of family members, and at the end, all the kids got to jump on the trampoline for the camera. I love how all these portraits turned out — the images will look lovely once they are hung on the wall:)

Studio Senior Portrait

Here are some highlights from one of our Pioneer Class of 2012 Senior sessions. This senior did a simple session at the studio. Now that our outdoor deck space is finished, we are pleased to provide easy green portraits like these outdoor senior portraits. I always love the deep blue sky portraits; they are a nice complement to the typical studio fare for senior sessions… and for those wanting a no-fuss session with two different looks, this is the perfect compromise.

Enjoy your senior year at Pioneer!!

Dexter High School Senior Pictures :: Kathleen, 2012

I can’t believe that Kathleen is a senior at Dexter High School already… time flies so quickly! Anyways, for Kathleen’s senior portrait session we started at the studio, and did some basic yearbook portraits. Then, once we got that out of the way, it was time for some fun!

Kathleen really wanted to have her portraits in a green, outdoorsy, natural setting. Since I love new and unique places (particularly my clients’ homes) — we decided to use her grandmother’s home as a setting. We also had to find an awesome place to use the GTO Judge, of course!!! I really love how everything turned out, from the waterfall portraits to the spectacular dance poses that Kathleen managed to pull off in mid-air.

And here’s a sneak peek at Kathleen’s senior portraits. From this gorgeous selection of pictures, I designed a set of coffeetable albums …and created a pair of wall portraits with the Judge (one canvas featuring Kathleen, and the other featuring her older brother, Doug’s senior portrait from several years ago).

I know Kathleen has been just dying to share these lovely senior portraits with all her friends and family… so, without further delay, here is a video slideshow of all Kathleen’s favorite senior portraits:

And for good measure, here are the individual senior portraits — click on an image to view it in more detail.
