Ava Grace | Newborn

September 6, 2016 Ashley Slater

Photographing sweet little Ava Grace was such an honor. Three years ago I photographed her parents, Matt & Summer as they married at Stafford's Perry Hotel in Petoskey, Michigan. It is one of my greatest joys to continue to capture these precious moments in the lives of clients. As most little ones are Ava was wide awake and was making it clear she didn't want much to do with having her pictures taken-- she wanted to cuddle with mama and eat and eat. Ava Grace, you are such a precious little blessing and I am certain you will be a beauty like your mama!

Happy Monday! This week is going to be a good one because I get to say see ya 👋🏻 to the frozen tundra and hello 😎 to sunny Florida skies. I think I’ll be just as happy as this bridal party was on a hot summer day last year! I always love classic black for guys... what’s your fave? Navy? Gray? #ashleyslaterweddings #michiganweddingphotographer #bridalparty
Happy Saturday! I’m introducing myself today since I shared all the pretty bling yesterday. So I’m Ashley (left in this pic) and when I’m not taking care of my three little boys —which is 24/7, let’s be honest— I am photographing beautiful weddings and it’s my favorite thing EVER to do.
.
If I’m not at a wedding I’m probably with @michaelanoelledesigns(right in the photo)  planning another @bloomtheworkshop which we love to host. This year we’ll be in Dallas again at @thewhitesparrow in November and I just can’t wait! .
5 current faves:
1. Passion fruit from the produce section
2. All the @lesmillstribe classes
3. @traderjoes vanilla whey protein
4. The fact that we leave for Disney in three days!
5. @beautycounter nourishing eye cream
.
What’s a current favorite of yours?! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻#fridayintroductions #butonaSaturday
How many of you added a little bling to your hand yesterday?! Where are my newly engaged couples at?! In honor of one of the biggest engagement days of the year yesterday, here are some of my all time fave ring shots— can you guys tell I have a thing for pairing rings with florals?! #engagementring #michiganweddingphotographer (p.s. past clients, do you spot your ring?!)
Happy Valentine’s Day! Celebrating love is my favorite thing to do almost everyday of the year and this couple exuded true love and had such a fun bridal party too! | Speaking of weddings, I am only taking two more 2019 weddings so if you happen to get engaged today make sure to get in touch soon!! 😍 #ashleyslaterphotography #ashleyslaterweddings
I hope you’re all staying cozy today, wherever you are. Michigan woke up to another big dump of snow and school closings... it feels like winter is just cramming it all in one big burst this year and I’m over it! Good thing we head south soon— in the meantime I’ve been planning some gorgeous engagement sessions this week with clients and I’m so excited for warmer temperatures and getting back out with my camera! #ashleyslaterphotography #michiganweddingphotographer
Wedding with a view... and gosh, WHAT a view it is! @cicconevineyard is one of my favorites because of this epic view of Lake Michigan... can’t wait to head back to one of the most magical places this summer! #ashleyslaterphotography #traversecitywedding
