This week I'm taking you to Ludington on my location spotlight. I'm SO in love with this town, I swear if I could I would pack up everything and buy a house on Lake Michigan. But, since I can't do that without taking out a multimillion dollar loan, I can settle with going there a few times a month for senior sessions. Ludington literally has it all. Sand dunes, beautiful beaches, historic downtown area, and lots of hidden gems throughout the city. If you can get past the wind

Meridian senior Riley Warren had a great session a few weeks ago! It was super hot that day, but we made the most of it during her Basic Senior Session. We went to Dow Gardens first and then ended up at the Chippewa Nature Center. Riley chose some super cute outfits and I love her long blonde hair. She was such a sweet girl, and I have no doubt she will do lots of amazing things! Here are a few of my favorite images from her session <3 #laurenelainephoto #seniorportraits #mic

Bay City John Glenn senior Sally Puvdan just had her premier session with me yesterday. I had such a great time getting to know her throughout taking her senior portraits! Not only is she gorgeous, but she was also one of the nicest high schoolers I've ever met! <3 Sally has some big plans of attending either University of Michigan (go blue!!), or Hope College. While she is undecided on what she wants to study, she is thinking about premed! She is passionate about leadership,

When I purchased my new GoPro Hero 7 I knew I had to get a model and practice some shots in my grandparent's pool. It was a little harder than I thought, but thankfully Taylor was super laid back and didn't mind swimming around over and over trying to get a shot! LOL. We also took some with my camera, which I absolutely love how they turned out. It definatley helps when your model is gorgeous! Thanks again, Taylor! <3 And of course, thank you grandma and grandpa for always le

Gabby is a Senior at Gladwin High School and as I'm sure most of you know she is a phenomenal three sport athlete!

Irene is a senior at Midland High School. She was so much fun to photograph with such a personable and bubbly personality. She said she is interested in going to college to study music education! And I could so see her rocking that! Irene could go from laughing in a portrait to rocking a bomb serious face. She is also one of the Drum Majors at Midland High! How cool is that! Irene had the "Luxe Session" and we were able to go to Midland High School, Dow Gardens, and Bay City!

Jaedyn is a senior at Gladwin High School. She chose such a great versatile location in Gladwin at Crooked River Weddings. There was a wide variety for me to capture her beautiful personality. Jaedyn is a figure skater and told me she also wants to be a photographer one day! I love hearing that because I could totally see her rocking it as a photographer! Thank you for trusting me with your senior portraits, Jaedyn! Here are a few more images from her session! #Seniorportrait

My favorite place to shoot is definitely Downtown Bay City. I mean, there's so many options to choose from. From brick, to gorgeous street lights, to waterfront. There is just so much in one area! I love it! I've been taking a ton of portraits there, so take a look at some of my most recent work in Downtown Bay City with some gorgeous ladies! Great option for senior portraits! #LaurenElainePhotography #SeniorPortraits #Photography #BayCityMI #DowntownBayCityMI
