Last fall I was so excited to receive a family session inquiry from Rachelle Welling. She is an extremely talented photographer based out of the Holland, Michigan area. There is always a lot of pressure photographing a fellow photog but it all melted away the second I met Rachelle and her family. For this session we went to her husband Ryan’s grandmothers home on Lake Michigan. Having the private beach without any distractions to run and play was absolutely delightful. Michigan was on its best weather behavior giving us sunshine, warmth and some glassy water. I love to approach my family sessions with lots of play, romance and giving time for the more traditional group shots too. Check out Rachelle’s work at: https://www.rachellewelling.com
