What to Wear: Mommy & Mini {metro detroit family photographer}

Here's an example of a fun, summer look for Mommy & her Mini!  Easy, breezy resort chic look for you and your little lady.

Meet Reese {metro detroit lifestyle newborn photographer}

I got to spend my Memorial Day morning hanging out with Reese and her parents.  How cute is this family?!  There was so much love in the room, I ran home and squeezed my little (alright, not so little) Stella and remembered that feeling of being so in love that all you want to do is gaze at her all day.  When I first spoke to Reese's Mom on the phone, she told me Reese is going to be a girly girl, and she wasn't kidding!  When I packed up my gear, I brought along a few of Stella's headbands just in case.  Haha, Reese's headband collection blew mine out of the water :) 

 

PS: Matt, you were totally right!  I love how the tutu kind of took over her!

Sneak Peek: Meet Reese {Metro detroit newborn photographer}

I had the pleasure of spending this Memorial Day morning with little Reese and she was the sweetest little one.  If you've read my bio, you know that after a shoot, I run home to my computer to get to editing.  I literally just got home and can't help but show this one.  Reese is one lucky lady, because her parents love for her is shining through this image.  Check back in a couple of days for more of this little snuggle bug!

The power of good lighting {metro detroit family child wedding photographer}

Want your photos to look like these?

 It's all about the lighting! The top image was taken around 9am and the bottom was taken around 7. A high sun is harsh and even the magic of Photoshop cannot correct the shadows and glare the sun can cast. To ensure you get the best images possible, please schedule your session early in the morning or late in the day.

I will be out of town enjoying the sun & fun with my family as of today through 5/26. If you would like to schedule a session or have questions, please email me at eschmidtphotography@gmail.com and I will get back to you when I return.

New Look

Check out my new look! I have been working with Mishelle Lamarand of Mishelle Lamarand Photography on revamping my business and taking it to the next level this year. It took me a bit to settle on a new logo and packaging that I felt was "me". Next up, a new website... Stay tuned!

Happy mother's day! {metro detroit family photographer}

Happy Mother's Day to all of you Mamas!  You always hear how amazing it is to become a Mother, but now I finally get it.  Plus, this one makes it extra easy because she is so gorg!
