Welcome!

i’m abby, and this is my blog – thanks for stopping by! this is where i’ll post favorites from all of my shoots, along with random snippets about my day-to-day life. i’m a wedding and portrait photographer based out of ann arbor, MI. i think i’ve got pretty much the best job in the world. i love weddings. i love photography. i love people in love. works out pretty good! when i’m not shooting, you may find me snuggling with my amazing husband, dreaming about expensive furniture I’d like to buy, or watching bad reality television.

....with my new washer and dryer!!  Is that wrong? 

oh sweet, sweet whirlpool duet...you bring me such joy with your sleek design and steam refresh setting....

As you can see, operation 'pimp my laundry room' is well underway!  We decided to paint a bright primary blue - because, well, we can ;-)  We've been so indecisive with colors for the main areas of the house, it was nice to just make a choice and GO!

and look!  We *finally* got a table!  After (i kid you not) 7 months of looking and saving, we decided on this bent plywood beauty from bludot.  I *love* it!!

now we just need to find some chairs that are worthy ;-)

I'm leaning towards one of these bright yellows for the dining room walls - maybe with one grey accent wall.  I'm loving yellow and grey together these days!

    We obviously LOVE the idea of contrasting colors in the house! Especially opposite walls! Great idea! I always have wanted to do a room all one color. then have an eye level stripe of a different color all the way around. That could work for ya!

    You got the steam option! Lucky,….Chris wouldn’t go for it…but I love mine all the same with its sing-songy chirp that tells me its done. Heed the high efficiency warning for detergent, they ain’t playin’!

I met Liz and Douglas awhile back while they were in town to show off their gorgeous new baby girl (they live overseas).

We got together with some of their family in the arb while the peonies were in full bloom - what a gorgeous spot for some photos.

Here's a few of my faves from our session

How cute is she?!

Our attempt at a whole family portrait yielded some fun results:

Just got in these delicious cards that I designed for Paul and Kendra.  I wish more couples took advantage of this - they're so fun, and my inner design-nerd gets to come out and play!

Check 'em out!

I designed them to be consistent with the overall theme of their wedding
