If you know this amazing woman you know that she's the sweetest, most kind human being on the planet. I've known Elena since I was just 3 years old when she started cutting mine and my sisters hair.
Over the years her and her husband Dennis built this gorgeous house, filled it with countless memories and made it a home. It's now time for the next chapter in their lives as they say a bittersweet goodbye to this home.
I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful mama and her sweet boy Maxsim.
It's been two years since I've seen them, and boy has he grown up fast. So full of energy with a contagious laugh.
We fought through the humidity and heat as we walked through the trails in Ann Arbor. Ended the shoot with a cool dip in the Huron River collecting countless amounts of rocks.
This sweet baby boy turned one! I have known his mommy and daddy for as long as I can remember, so I was so ecstatic when they asked me to photograph their baby boy.
The photos were taken on their amazing property with all the country feels. As you can see he has crystal blue eyes with the most adorable smile. Cheers and happy first birthday Giovanni!
