photography that feels like your favorite summer memory
Michigan summers go by way too fast… mornings on the dock, cousins running wild, sandy feet at bedtime, and long dinners under string lights. Whether you're here for a week or the whole season, these sessions are designed to fit effortlessly into your summer rhythm.
Sessions start at $500. No complicated packages. Just simple, honest pricing so you can focus on showing up and having fun.
If you’re looking for a fun, laid-back summer session in Northern Michigan, I've got you covered …

A portion of every session goes somewhere close to my heart.
My dad, Todd Collins, loved Torch Lake the way some people love a person - fiercely, protectively, and with his whole self.
He was the life of every party and the first to offer a helping hand when something needed doing. For years, he poured that same energy into the KEEP TORCH BLUE campaign, advocating tirelessly for the lake's health and future, right up until he passed away in May 2024.
10% of every summer session I photograph here is donated to the Todd Collins Keep Torch Blue Fund in his memory.
If you'd like to contribute directly, you can do that HERE.
