Mother's Day Mini Sessions {Metro Detroit family photographer}

What a fun, cold (very cold) day!  These mini sessions were especially important to me.  Being a new Mom (and a photographer), I spend a lot of my time at home in yoga pants, with a messy bun (so my hair doesn't get pulled) and little to no makeup.  I'm more likely than not, the one behind the lens, capturing all of the milestones, giggles and uber cute moments with DaDa (yeah, that's all she's saying these days).  It's easy, as a Mom, to get caught up and  forget about the lipstick, and the cute outfit and not remember that you are pretty too and these passing moments with your children are once in a lifetime.  I hope the Mamas who came out felt as gorgeous as they looked and enjoyed their moments with their littles.  You all really made my day.            xo, e

E Schmidt Photography in the News {metro detroit photographer}

You might recognize this image from my Etsy page.  The Veggie Bull reminds me of being very small in Detroit.  It is the perfect example of why I love photography.  A simple image can take you back to a moment and make you feel like you were just there.

I was asked if this image could be used for a new Detroit Kickstart program called First Container.  You can learn more about this really cool project at http://firstcontainer.com/ and if you would like to donate to their Kickstart program, you may do so at: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/shelkimen/first-container-collision-works-story-box-installa

I'm personally all for anything that brings positive light to the gorgeous city of Detroit.
