Downtown Howell Family Photos | Livingston County Family Photographer

FAMILY January 25, 2020

Family sitting on bridge in Downtown Howell MI

I absolutely loved meeting and photographing the adorable Kang family in Downtown Howell for their family photos last spring! This family came to their session dressed in beautiful formal attire. If you ever felt overwhelmed planning your family’s outfits, I have good news for all of my 2020 clients! I now offer an amazing styling service when you book a session. So, if you want to coordinate your family’s outfit to look as cute as the Kang family, all of my clients now have a very helpful tool!

If you are wondering what season to book your family’s session in, spring is the perfect time. The weather is warmer, the sun is shining, and the flowers are bloomed. In addition, downtown Howell has many beautiful locations for family photos.

I suggested meeting up with the Kang family at this super cute local coffee shop to start. I love indoor lifestyle shots and this place is the best spot with a large, open window. After that, we ventured around downtown to a few of my favorite spots. There are so many wonderful options downtown! I absolutely love the old brick feel, the walking bridge, and the abundance of flowers that downtown Howell this time of year. Also, the old buildings are so beautiful. It is definitely a favorite location of mine.

If you’re looking for an urban feel with floral accents for your family photos this spring, downtown Howell is a wonderful choice!

Check out some favorite photos from the Kang family’s spring time family session in Downtown Howell below!

In Home Newborn Session| Brighton, MI Photographer

LIFESTYLE, NEWBORN January 22, 2020

Baby girl laying in crib for Brighton, MI newborn session

Time to share another favorite Brighton in home newborn session! Catching up on blog posts is a lot of work, but oh so much fun! I love looking back at all of the sessions I have shared with past clients. Oversharing the Meyers family lately!! I love all of the sessions that they have had with me and they must be shared for all of the world to see! In case you missed them, check out Katie and Drew’s maternity session HERE and these extra fun shots that I took of Katie at Target after her outdoor maternity session HERE.

This newborn session was extra special with their little girl, Hattie. She is such a doll and her parents were beaming the entire time. Also, I’m pretty sure they should win the award for cutest nursery. I’m a sucker for a vintage/floral look.

Check out more below from this Brighton, MI family’s in home newborn session.

Brighton Newborn Photographer | In Home Session

LIFESTYLE, NEWBORN January 21, 2020

Brighton MI In Home Newborn Photographer

I am so in love with this newborn session that took place at the Telfer family’s Brighton, MI home! All of my newborn sessions take place in client’s homes and have a lifestyle feel. In home sessions are a beautiful way to capture the essence of your family. Also, everyone is always super comfortable in their own home and it definitely shows in photographs. By the way, it is so much easier to stay home with a newborn and be able to instantly change back into your PJ’s and take a nap once I leave, since you are already at home. 😉

Checkout some favorites from the Telfer family’s Brighton newborn Session below!

A sweet, unplanned moment. Dad looking into the nursery at his wife holding his newborn baby daughter. I mean, how sweet is this?! So happy I was able to catch this on camera.

Okay, so these next few photos were a favorite moment of mine. Dad went to kiss baby, and baby kissed him back. His reaction? Priceless.

I absolutely LOVE when families have their dogs be a part of their photo sessions. In home sessions are the perfect way to get photos with your family pets. They feel so comfortable in your home and they are already there, so it is obvious that we have to get some shots with them! Because pets are family, too.

Grandma was staying over to help for a few days, so of course I had to document these sweet moments below. I love when grandparents are present at newborn sessions for a few photos. These are moments that will be cherished forever.

Outdoor Family Session | Brighton Michigan Family Photographer

FAMILY, LIFESTYLE January 8, 2020

Michigan Family Photographer

Heading back a few months into early fall with the adorable Dice Family! Lindsay reached out to me in search of a family photographer with a candid style. She thought that candid photography may be the best way to capture three active, young children. I knew I was the right fit for her as soon as she said this! My style is very candid, organic, and fun! I love to let the kids just be kids and let things flow naturally at my sessions. We decided the perfect spot for their outdoor session would be at my beautiful outdoor location in Brighton, Michigan!

The kids were full of energy as soon as they hopped out of the car and I loved it! They were infatuated with my camera and soon were running around. being their goofy selves. The session included plenty of family snuggles, horseplay, and love. As a photographer, I love Brighton, Michigan location for family sessions because it offers a ton of space for kids to play and explore. Plus the scenery is absolutely gorgeous.

So, if these photos make you excited for outdoor fun, keep in mind it is not too early to book your family’s summer session! Yes, warmer weather may seem far away in the dreary winter months, but it really will be here before we know it. I am booking out fast for all of 2020, so don’t delay! 🙂

Michigan Maternity Photographer | The Reed Family

FAMILY, Maternity January 5, 2020

Sarah-Rose Photography is a Brighton, Howell, and Fowlerville, Michigan Maternity Photographer serving all of Livingston County, Greater Lansing, Ann Arbor, Southeast Michigan, Novi, and surrounding areas.

Michigan Maternity Photographer

I am SO behind on blogging sessions. But since I am officially on maternity leave and counting down the days until my own due date (30 days, to be exact!), I have some time to catch up on and perfect the business/blogging side of my work!

I had to start off my blogging spree this month with my wonderful, beautiful, sweet friend Katie and her adorable family. This was Katie’s maternity session while she was pregnant with her second baby, her perfect little girl Madison (blog post of her newborn session coming soon!). Their session took place at my exclusive, private property located in Gregory, MI. I always feel so honored when my friends and family ask me to photograph these special moments in their life. It means so much when my loved ones invest and support me and my business.

Also, baby bumps are one of my favorite things to photograph. I love to help make mamas feel so confident and empowered at their sessions. Because you should be! You are a beautiful badass, and you deserve to look and feel amazing. So pamper yourself, get dolled up, and have me take your photos. Trust me, you will want this moment documented and to look back onto one day.

Anyway, I love this lady and her family. I hope you enjoy the baby bump photos. If her adorable bump doesn’t make you miss being pregnant, I don’t know what will. 😉

Brighton Michigan Maternity Photographer | Target Maternity Session

Sarah-Rose Photography is a Brighton Michigan Maternity Photographer serving all of Livingston County, greater Lansing, Southeast Michigan, and surrounding areas.

Brighton Michigan Target Maternity Session

Ok ladies. Who loves Target? ? I mean, let’s be honest… it has everything we need… and everything we don’t need, am I right? You can get lost in that place. Especially if you are a mama. I honestly probably go to Target at least once a week. ? Yes, I’m one of those moms with a coffee in hand, baby in cart, getting lost in all of the cute items down every aisle… then end up with a basket full of stuff I didn’t go in for.

It’s just a Target thing, ya know?

I wanted to do something creative, fun, and different. I love focusing on motherhood in my photography. So, I thought, what can I do that can include motherhood + fun + creativity? A maternity session in Brighton Michigan’s Target, of course! What better way to showcase a new mama’s pregnancy than on display at the red bullseye store? It’s like the initiation into motherhood. I had an outdoor maternity session scheduled for a Friday evening already with the lovely Katie and asked if she would like to model for me at Target after her session. (Blog post coming soon for that one- she looked so gorgeous and rocked her red gown!) She happily agreed! For all my Target lovin’ mamas… this one’s for you! ?

We started at Starbucks, obviously. 😉 Then we hit up the baby section and some other essential spots for mamas.

Ok let’s stop for a sec. How cute is Katie?! She brought the t-shirt “Don’t Eat the Watermelon Seeds” which is super cute. It was just perfect for this Target theme. Ok, more cute phots below.

Y’all… pregnancy cravings are so real. Right mamas?

How often do you go to Target? Once a month? Once a week? Daily? No shame ladies, no shame. Target is THE spot to shop!
