West Michigan Photographer

Studio newborn photographer in West Michigan | Baby Deaglan

This newborn session was so special. I felt connected to the new parents’ story as they welcomed baby boy into their family through adoption after the uncertainty of whether growing a family was even a possibility.

I could feel how deep their love was already and the emotions ran high during our time together.

It’s always a true honor to capture such a sacred time in a family’s life, but this session and family will hold a special place in my heart.

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT Alissa

At home in a small Michigan town near the lake — raising four beautiful, wild-hearted kids and holding close to the fleeting moments that matter most.

Life around here is a little loud, a little messy, and with a lot of love...  and that’s exactly what draws me to photography. I’ve spent over 16 years capturing connection, chaos, calm, and everything in between… Because it’s not the big milestones we ache for... it’s the quiet, constant things woven into them.
