The right way to Pose

Just a quick thought i wanted to share. I always say i don't like posing people. Its true. Kind of. Sometimes the best pictures come from posing them and waiting.


So I think i now believe it's not about the "Right" way to pose, its about any pose and waiting for the "Right" moment.


Here are two examples of what i would consider the "Right" moment.

These are two people very special to me. Travis and Carli are not just clients of mine they are my good pals. If only you could hear the conversation during these..."Smile like you love me", "Mmmm your hair smells so good". HAHAHA Guess you had to be there.

Jamie + Josh {MSU Horticulture Gardens}

Earlier this year i donated a gift certificate to a Cat Rescue Fundraiser here in Michigan. One day i got a phone call from Jamie. I get so excited to meet new people. And yet i still get nervous. I was nervous. I was hoping they couldn't tell.


We met at a Taco Bell and i followed them to these beautiful gardens at MSU. I had never been there so i was excited.

We just walked around and pointed out spots and snapped away. It was a really great and relaxed time. We got some great silly shots too. Just a great way to spend a morning.

Josh had a hard time not cracking up with the serious face HAHA!

The slippery bridge

                                We found this boy in the children's garden...So they read a book with him HAHA!

Thanks Jamie and Josh for such an great morning...And i surely hope i am spelling your names right!!

Sarah + Ben Wedding Weekend {South Haven}

This is by far my FAVORITE wedding yet. They both have such a great eye for something cool and fun. They are Quirky and Classic all at the same time. I just enjoyed our weekend together so much. I love to shoot people who love photos. They just seem to fall into place so easy. Very little direction needed. They had a wedding weekend full of their character. Complete with talk of Zombies, A Vintage Broach Bouquet, A Self Designed Dress, Fabulous green pants and lots of love and laughter!! Oh and a Rehearsal dinner at a Junk Store!!

HAHAHA! This cracked me up!

        

We had some really great light
