What to Wear: Cool Kids Edition {Metro Detroit Family photographer}

Having a hard time getting the littles to dress up??  Here's what "the cool kids" are wearing ;)

Sneak Peek: Mama's Mini Session {Metro detroit family photographer}

It may have been a very cold day in Michigan, but with these eskimo kisses, you could hardly tell.  Check back in a few days for more from the Mother's Day Mini Sessions!

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.

Jill + Erik {Metro Detroit Wedding Photographer}

 We couldn't have asked for a better setting for Jill & Erik's engagement shoot!  The snow was the perfect backdrop for these two considering Erik's Christmastime proposal.  With how cozy they look, you would never have guessed it was 30 degrees and super windy!  At least we got our own wind machine for Jill's gorgeous locks!

Today I'm spending the day with my little lady on her 4 month birthday :)

Meet Miss Emily {Metro Detroit Child Photographer}

Meet Miss Emily!  This super cute little lady just turned 1 and I got to hang out with her and her parents over the weekend.  This quiet little one has a lot of energy and definitely made our shoot fun!  I had such a hard time keeping my favorites down to just a few, so in this one, you get a few extras :)

I'm Baaack! {Metro Detroit Wedding Child Family Photographer}

I will be returning from maternity leave after Thanksgiving.  Can't wait to get back to taking beautiful photographs of beautiful people!  Contact me for your sitting or if you have any questions.

Meet Stella {Metro Detroit Newborn Photographer}

This post is extra special to me because she's mine!  

Stella Evelyn Schmidt was born 10/11/12 at 6 lbs 6 oz and 20.5 inches long.  As it turns out, my baby hates to have her photo taken, which made for an interesting shoot.  Hopefully she'll grow to love it :)

Maternity Leave {Metro Detroit Wedding Child Family Photographer}

With my due date just a week away, I will not be scheduling any shoots for the remainder of the month of October.  Please contact me to set up your fall and winter portrait sittings when I return in November.  I'm looking forward to getting back out there and capturing your special moments!

Meet Miss Claire {Metro Detroit Newborn Photographer}

Saturday I spent the day with 6 week old Claire and her two big brothers!  Such a fun & beautiful family!  It was so beautiful to see how much Claire's brothers love her.
