HI, IM CARRIE

I am a natural light photographer serving the Grand Haven, MI area.

In my free time I enjoy socializing, visiting the water and sitting around a campfire. "Up North" is my happy place but Grand Haven isn't so bad either :)

I am equally left and right brained so that comes in handy! You'll see my creative side at your session and in your gallery. My *Type A* side will show in your final prints, my attention to detail and quick turnaround.

My sessions are very laid back and enjoyable...the goal is to make your session as fun and easygoing as possible. I want you to leave saying "That was fun!". Final images are unique to every family. Each gallery contains a perfect blend of candid and *posed* images. You pick the date, the outfits and leave the rest to me!
