A few weekends ago I played a fun role in a surprise photoshoot for my friend and fellow photographer Tammi Stephens. Her creative husband Matt planned the whole thing and managed to keep the details a secret amidst Tammi’s attempts to guess the surprise. 😉
The plan was to drive up to GR and have me snap some secret pictures of them together, and then surprise her with a family photoshoot (which they hadn’t done family pictures in over 4 years). While I don’t normally do family shoots, I was eager to play my role and have fun with this great family in the process. Here are some of the highlights.
Enjoying a drink together by the Grand River…

She never even saw me… because I used my Ninja hiding skillz!

Then their kids arrived – Surprise still progressing…

Sharing drinks together as a family… “Why are all of you here?”

FAMILY PHOTOSHOOT TIME!


Going a little out of the box with this one.





One of my favs…


Then it was on to playing a little Frisbee football…











Thanks for letting me be a part of your surprise Matt! It was great to hang with all of you!



I love it!!!! The whole idea of it is great! Wow, way to capture the family!
