jocelyn & paul: engaged!

A few weeks ago I spent yet another chilly afternoon with a cute couple for an engagement shoot! This time, we headed to downtown Grand Rapids for some outdoor shots around town and some indoor shots at the ever-lovely Amway Grand Hotel.

Jocelyn & Paul got engaged this past holiday season, but they have been in love for a long time and are ready to tie-the-knot! Yay! I've worked with Jocelyn at Campus Recreation the past couple years, but that day was the first day I had met Paul. Apparently, I thought he had been born with the wrong name because I kept calling him "Matt" throughout the entire shoot!! Oh my goodness, I felt so ridiculous!! Fortunately, Jocelyn & Paul were good sports through the cold temps and my name-difficulties and we were able to get some great shots!

Thanks for allowing me to be apart of your wedding process, Jocelyn & Paul! It's been great getting to know the two of you the past month and I'm looking forward to your July wedding!

5th Annual: Fitness & Wellness Expo

The Fitness & Wellness Expo is an annual event hosted at Grand Valley State University and sponsored by the Campus Recreation department. I have personally been apart of the event the past four years as an employee of Campus Rec... and it's always a good time!

The event happened this past Wednesday in the Kirkhof Center of the Allendale campus. The Expo is a chance for local vendors and on-campus organizations/departments to connect with the university community and help promote healthy lifestyles. Along with booths, vendors also have a chance to do workshops and/or demonstrations for a more hands-on experience. Participants also have a chance to win some great fitness/wellness packages... which is always a plus!

As the sole-member of the creative team at Campus Rec, my job for the event was simple: take pictures! What a terrible way to spend the afternoon! Not! :) Here are a few images from the day...

Always a favorite... the GVSU Capoeira Mandinga performed a demonstration!

If you recall, about a month ago I took pictures of my nephew, Boaz for the Livingston Parent Journal February cover. This just in... the magazine is out on newstands! And my sister-in-law posted the magazine cover on her blog:

Way to go, little man! Click here for the full post to see how Boaz responded to seeing himself on the cover!
