Michelle Sacka Photography Tuesday's Tip #1

Tue, 19 Nov 2013 17:29:29 GMT

I've been wanting to offer up simple photography tips that can make a big impact on people's images. I want to help people tell their story and create more compelling images with any camera they have in their hands. These tips will help if you are using an iPhone, simple point and shoot, or some fancy DSLR. As you know, my niche is family photography. So, I'll have to admit that these tips may be geared towards taking photos of your children. But, really, these do apply to any kind of portrait photography that you might be trying to create. I especially think these posts will be very helpful now in the weeks leading up to the end of year holidays. So, without further adieu... Here is Tuesday's tip #1 :) Feel free to leave questions or comments below. I'd love to hear from you.

Moments that melt... This comes to my mind. these precious little cuties will soon outgrow that comfy nook of their parents arms. They won't always be asking to hear Good Night Moon or reciting Brown Bear Brown Bear... Working with amazing families such at this family, near and dear to my heart, and capturing moments such as these are what makes me love this work so much.

So excited about my first Class of 2014 Senior Portrait session! And I was so lucky to get to know Sara as we prepared for the photo shoot and spent time together during the shoot. What an amazing combination of beauty and smarts. And, although she said she was not a fan of the camera, I have to say Sara rocked the shoot!

I feel truly honored to have had the chance to share such precious moments with this amazing family. This family is a true inspiration to me and to countless others. I was overjoyed to capture some of the new moments as they welcomed their precious bundle of baby boy joy. Here are some of the highlights. Although, for now, I'm holding back on some of my very favorites until announcements have been sent :)

Brothers!!! I love the boy energy! I had so much fun keeping up with these two guys. Do these images say "Summer fun" or what?

Okay, so you can probably tell from the photos that I had so much fun photographing one of my favorite families :) We were on location at their neighborhood park in Bloomfield Hills. The weather even cooperated nicely too. Yay for summer!

I had so much fun playing with this family at the Rochester Michigan municipal park and I loved capturing these family portrait images!

I again had the privilege to capture the amazing moments in a couple's life just before they welcome their first child into this world. Here is a sneak peak at some of the images from this maternity shoot. It was a cold rainy April day. But, J and D were good sports and I think the rain actually added to the beauty of these images. Can't wait to get at all of the images from this maternity photo session.

What a wonderful March day for a maternity photo shoot. I just love the poetry of this amazing couple about to begin their journey as a new family among the spring foliage just waiting to burst into color and life. I feel so honored to have been asked to take maternity photos for A & J. They were brave enough to trust me, as this was my first official maternity shoot. So, much fun! Here are some of my favorites...
