Four Reasons You Need a Simple Session in Your Life – Rochester, Michigan Family Photographer

Simple sessions became popular a few years ago and they aren’t going away anytime soon. These sessions are done in a photography studio on a simple white seamless background. Subjects are asked to wear white, and for good reason. It keeps everything simple. If the modern simplistic photos aren’t enough of a reason, I am going to give you four more to help you understand why you need this session in your life.

Simple Session -  Rochester Michigan Photographer
  1. These sessions are timeless. There isn’t any trendy decor (although I love my boho vibes) or edits (cough, cough, muted film edits). These are simply black and white photos that will never go out of style.

2. The focus is simply on the subject. These sessions are sometimes referred to as “personality sessions” and for good reason! The entire session is focused on the expressions and capturing details details and personality.

3. Outfit selection is a breeze. There is no need to stress about coordinating colors or patterns. You don’t have to decide if you’re going to pretend you always walk around in flowy gowns versus leggings and a sweatshirt. Just throw on some jeans and a white top and you’re good to go!

4. These images make excellent wall decor. Since they are simple and black and white, they will go perfectly in almost any room. So many of our clients blow these up and hang them as pieces of art (because that’s what they truly are) to showcase in their home.

Xander 6 Months – Metro Detroit Family Photographer

Our new corner of the studio is pretty magical. Xander and his family were the first to test it out and I am in love with how it looks. The sequence with momma + baby melts my heart. If you’d like a session like this, we are hosting motherhood sessions on Sunday, April 14th. Book your session here

Siesta Key Sessions – Destination Photographer

At least once a year, I am lucky enough to travel down to one of the top-rated beaches in the world, Siesta Key, Florida. This title was given to the beaches in Siesta Key because of the sand so white, it almost looks like a blanket of snow. With a westward-facing beach, the sunsets are so breathtaking that leaving the parking lot often involves waiting in a line of traffic. While this trip is purely vacation for this Michigan-based photographer, I can’t help myself but want to photograph here. So…

Winter Snow Session – Michigan Family Photographer

When Allie contacted me about doing a session with her beautiful dog, Chevy in the snow, I couldn’t say YES fast enough. Winter photo sessions are so underrated and honestly, they are my absolute favorite. Michigan weather is not always predictable but when we get these big snowfalls, I can’t help but want to take my camera out and play. There is something about freshly fallen snow that makes my creative heart sing. This session happened at a beautiful field in Clarkston, Michigan with towering pine trees covered in freshly fallen snow. Chevy was so happy to play in the snow with her mama and they even were matching with their colors. You should always bring your puppy for a photo session since they are part of the family! - Jenay

If you are in the Metro-Detroit area and would like a photo session in the snow, please email hello@visionphotomi.com to book your session!

Fry Family – Siesta Key Session

When my two favorite things (photography and travel) collide, it makes everything make sense. Siesta Key has become one of my favorite places to visit with my family and this is my second time taking on photo sessions while I am there. It also happens to be the second annual photo shoot for this family too. Paul is a professional baseball player for the Toronto Blue Jays and spring training happens to be in Florida. So when his wife Paige realized that my trip matched up with them being down there, we made it happen! Here are a few favorites from this session

Spring Blooms Sessions

Spring is right around the corner! When the flowers bloom on the trees, they are beautiful but they only stay for a short time. Lets get your spring session scheduled before the trees turn green!

Levi – 6 Month Milestone Session

This little buddy was so sweet for his session. And of course I couldn’t pass up the perfect “family” tattoo on dad. I can’t wait for his next milestone session! – Jenay

Sam & Clarke – Mommy + Me

Sam wanted a session with her baby girl and I was happy to oblige! She is wearing two of the dresses in our client closet and I’m obsessed with both of them in our new studio set up. This is a little peek at what our Mommy + Me sessions will look like on April 16th but we will have a few more changes to the studio and we will also have Complete Video Solutions here doing video during this session as well! We can’t wait! – Jenay
