A Heartwarming Thanksgiving Family Session: The Flowers Family | Milford, MI

This Thanksgiving break, I had the privilege of photographing the Flowers family. With Mom and her five kids and son-in-law together for Thanksgiving, it was a perfect time for a family photo session. The extended family, including Mom’s parents and her brother with his family, also joined in, making it a special and memorable gathering. Held in the comfort of her backyard, surrounded by trees and embraced by the chill of November, this session turned out lovely.

The Flowers family’s backyard provided a cozy and intimate setting for the photo session. With a backdrop of trees, the scene was naturally picturesque. The overcast sky, typical of late November, created a soft, diffused light that was perfect for capturing the warmth of family connections.

One of the highlights of the session was the family’s perfectly coordinated outfits. They chose a palette that beautifully complemented the fall season, incorporating rich autumnal colors and cozy layers. The outfits not only coordinated with each other but also harmonized with the natural surroundings, adding a touch of seasonal charm to the photos. Each family member’s attire reflected their individual style, yet together, they presented a unified and stylish look.

From the moment we started, it was clear that the Flowers family shared a deep and genuine bond. The session began with group shots, capturing the entire family together. Given the rare occasion of having all five kids home and the extended family present, these group photos were particularly significant.

We then moved on to capture various groupings—Mom with her kids, the grandparents with their grandchildren, and individual family units. Each combination highlighted different relationships and dynamics. The overcast sky provided even, flattering lighting, making everyone look their best despite the chilly weather.

The five kids, reunited for Thanksgiving, brought a unique energy to the session. Their playful banter and genuine smiles showcased their close bond and the joy of being together again.

The photos of Mom with her kids captured the essence of her love and dedication. Her warmth and nurturing spirit shone through, creating beautiful and heartfelt portraits.

This Thanksgiving session with the Flowers family showcased the joy of being together. The presence of extended family made it a truly special occasion. Despite the chilly weather, the warmth of family bonds was ever-present, creating memorable moments that will be cherished for years to come.

Thank you to the Flowers family for allowing me to capture these precious moments. It was an honor to be part of your Thanksgiving celebration and to witness the love that binds your family together. I hope these photos bring you joy and remind you of the beautiful connections you share.

Serena | Senior Session | Terraces Flower Farm | Milford

Serena’s senior session was one for the books. We met on a beautiful September evening at Terraces Flower Farm , just a couple of hours before sunset. The light was perfect—soft and golden—and the whole farm felt peaceful and full of charm. Terraces Flower Farm is a really special place, especially for senior portraits. Flowers are blooming everywhere you look, and there’s a greenhouse on the property that’s kept just for photo sessions. It adds a cozy, rustic vibe to the photos. One of my favorite features? The classic blue Ford truck that’s become a signature part of the farm—it’s fun, a little nostalgic, and photographs so well. But the real highlight of the evening was Serena. She’s wrapping up high school as a homeschooled student and, incredibly, is also finishing her bachelor’s degree at the same time. That’s a huge accomplishment and made this session even more meaningful. Serena is smart, driven, and carries herself with such calm confidence. It was clear how much thought an...
