Sneak Peek: Dr. Dina + Family | Ann Arbor Portrait Photographer

Garrett and I had a great time with Dr. Dina and her family on Sunday. It’s quite humbling to have clients who come back year after year, and Dr. Dina’s family portrait session has become an annual affair that we always look forward to. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Dr. D. We appreciate you so very much. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Sneak Peek: Katie’s Maternity Session | Ann Arbor Maternity Photographer

I don’t do many maternity sessions — former brides and referrals only — so I am always very excited when someone calls. It means that a past client is happy enough to come back for more, or that she has trusted me enough to refer a friend. I love that!
I was doubly excited when Katie called because she is among the rarest of all creatures: a client who has become a good friend. I’ve photographed her on more than one occasion and I absolutely can’t wait to meet her new daughter . A second generation Studio Sinead girl! Who would have imagined? Katie, it was truly an honor. Congratulations and I look forward to seeing you and your beautiful daughter very soon.






Sneak Peek: Noa and Lea’s Big Night | Detroit Family Photographer

Hi Everyone! I know I’ve been neglecting the blog lately, but I’m back and I have some great photos from Noa and Lea’s amazing Bat Mitzvah party at The Royal Oak Music Theatre. This party took more than a year to plan and I’m having a hard time believing that it’s over. I’m already looking for another reason to photograph these terrific girls and their parents. They were an absolute blast to work with. Mazel tov, ladies! Enjoy your photos. You can see the entire sneak peek gallery on our Facebook fan page.

Venue: Royal Oak Music Theatre

Punk Rock Bat Mitzvah Part 2: The Video

I know you haven’t forgotten these fabulous sisters! We first told you about them last fall when we met to shoot some portraits for their upcoming Bat Mitzvah. At the end of February, we met with them again to document the making of a fantastic video that will premiere on their big day. I’m not going to spoil the surprise, but I can tell you that we had an awesome time with these two girls. We also had the pleasure of working with two of our favorite videographers, Ryan and Matt from Epic Motion, and we had the opportunity to meet Lea’s musical mentor, Bruce Pooley, at Live Wire Studios where part of the video was filmed. From there, it was on to Studio A in Commerce, MI for Noa’s dance routine, which was choreographed by her teacher, Rachel.

We had so much fun and we can’t wait for their party at the Royal Oak Music Theatre in April. Andrea Solomon is planning the event, so we know it’s going to be great.

Enjoy the photos!

Punk Rock Bat Mitzvah

I’ve wanted to blog this great portrait session for a while now. Miss L and Miss N are sisters who will be celebrating their Bat Mitzvahs together in April. They love music and wanted to have some portraits with a rock star look. We were more than happy to oblige! We had a fab time with these girls and their super hip mom and we can’t wait for their party next spring. Rock on, ladies. Rock on.

You can see more of their session in the slide show below. It takes a minute to load, but it’s totally worth the wait. Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Have a fabulous day, everyone!
Since today is a time for friends and family, we thought you might enjoy a favorite family of ours. We have been photographing Dr. C. and her children for several years now. We always have a wonderful time with them and it’s so cool to see the kids grow up. I love the photos we shot this year. Enjoy! We’re off this weekend to be with friends and family. Have a safe and wonderful celebration.
