Traci + Brian Engagement

We shot Traci and Brian's engagement photos on a blustery, cold February afternoon. They were troopers! With temperatures dipping below 30 degrees they rocked it. It's such a blessing to work with such awesome clients.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can't wait to capture you two on your big day. It's going to be such a fun day!

Annie + Ryan Engagement

We were slightly worried about shooting Annie and Ryan's engagement photos. With Michigan experiencing the most mild winter in years, it wasn't looking like we'd have our "winter wonderland engagement shoot" we were hoping for. We sure did luck out! Not only was there plenty of snow on the ground, the very next day temperature's shot up to nearly 50 degrees melting all that snow.

We had a blast shooting with Annie, Ryan and their 13 week old puppy, Tank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking forward to seeing you two all gussied up on your big day!

Moungkhoun Family

We recently met with Soulinh, Lindsey and their three darling children Jade, Charlie and Ty at their cozy home in Holland. Ty is the newest addition to the family and was not camera shy in the least. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was truly a pleasure to work with this darling family.

A Look Back at 2011

2011 was an amazing year for Photo Op. We had the pleasure to work with some of the best clients ever. Darling couples, endearing families and cute children. We thought it would be a good idea to take the time to look back and remember the people who made it possible.

We started the year with a winter wonderland wedding with Jessica + Chad.

 

 

We had a late winter Engagement shoot with Valerie +Ken.

 

Early in the Spring we did a "Lovebirds" session with Jamie + Travis (and we're very happy to say they're now engaged!).

 

 

Later in the Spring, we did an Engagement session with Emily + Dan.

 

 

We photographed Nicole + Evan's Wedding early in the summer on a gorgeous day in Saugatuck.

 

 

 

 

Valerie + Jack exchanged wedding vows in front of their closest friends and family.

 

 

We photographed Jon Biolette for his senior picture in the middle of summer. What a handsome young man.

 

 

Amanda + Bob's Engagement session was also in the summer and we were fortunate to be able to shoot on another gorgeous Michigan summer day.

 

 

Photographing Valerie + Ken's Wedding was simply delightful.

 

 

 

We were thrilled when our good friends, Jordyn + Bryan, asked us to capture their big day. We had a blast shooting their Engagement session.

 

 

 

Lavinia + David's Wedding was on the beach in Saugatuck. It was a lovely day.

 

 

 

 

After their Engagement session, we knew Emily + Dan's Wedding day would be a fantastic day.

 

 

 

We donated a Family session to Relay for Life and were fortunate to capture the Lindsey Family in Grand Haven late in the summer.

 

The Panepento Family was a unique session simply because just over a year earlier, we had photographed their wedding. Such a sweet family.

 

We photographed the Bos Family late in the summer. They're a fun and sweet family.

 

Amanda + Bob didn't want to see each other before the ceremony of their Wedding. We came up with a unique way for them to have their picture captured without seeing one another. It was a fun day.

 

 

 

What a treat it was to capture Ben + Ashlyn's Proposal. Ben had contacted Photo Op prior to the event. Ashlyn had no idea we were there. It was a very sweet moment.

 

 

 

We ended our season in the most special way. Capturing our good friends Jordyn + Bryan exchange wedding vows. It was so much fun.

 

 

 

As we look back on 2011, we couldn't be happier. Our clients have been truly wonderful to work with. As we charge into 2012, we're hopeful for another successful year. Thanks for the memories!
