Maria = LuLu Letty {Lifestyle Photographer}

Meet Maria... a classmate since 6th grade... high school tennis buddy... & reconnected via Facebook... Maria is a wife... etsy shop owner... artist... vintage buyer... with a taste for vintage clothing... she is a trend setter with a style all her own... oh, and lastly -- she's a professional blogger =) well, I call her professional because you simply do not have over 1,300 1,420 blog followers without leaving readers a sense of professionalism! And she, is a very good example of a fantastic blogger (posting every day & sometimes twice a day)!

Maria not only helped me get started with my blog, but this past year she has helped me with any blogging issues I had... even to a point where I gave her my password to fix something I couldn't figure out... Maria, is so helpful... not only to me, but to the 1,420 people that follow her... because aside from inspiring loyal followers with her vintage style -- she has DIY fashion & non-fashion projects & advice; from making hair bows, how to properly care for wavy hair, makeup advice, to making homemade ice cream... check out her delightful blog HERE... {you'll be hooked}

Again, while in Michigan, I squeezed in a photo shoot with Maria & and her husband Cole... and originally , I was going to post their photos first -- but I thought it appropriate to do a Maria tribute first since she was the reason for this shoot... a photo shoot to thank her for all the help she's given me... and well --- for being so inspirational... enjoy!

this picture is so heavenly! perfect lighting... perfect model... {sigh}













don't you love her hair & adorable outfits?




love this...




love this set of b/w photos...




and this is one of my favorites...


thanks for the awesomeness, maria! stay tuned for photos of maria & her husband...

The Nolasco Family {Family Portrait Photographer}

While vacationing in Michigan a few weeks back, I had the pleasure of capturing the Nolasco family... a sweet, lively family that truly enjoy sharing a good laugh... Parents Esmeralda & Jorge have been married for 33 years... and they have two beautiful daughters, Diana & Donna... Donna (my August/Michigan bride {yay!}) emailed me last winter wanting to do a surprise family photo session for her parents... so, we did just that! And what an awesome time we had! Here are some of my favorites from our shoot... enjoy!

We began the shoot with the whole family...
