 A horse is a horse of course of course...You remember the old song from the incredible Mr. Ed right? Oh boy, maybe I'm showing off my age! In any case, this incredible horse is Magic and my daughter is lucky enough to be taking lessons with Magic - provided by her lovely cousin Andrea. Gabi has been riding Magic off and on for a bit over a year now and it was my pleasure to be able to photograph Magic and Andrea together one lovely evening this past fall. I will be the first to admit that I don't know much about horses but this guy is really a character. Seems like every time we go to the barn, someone comments on Magic's over-abundance of personality. I've seen him beg for treats, drink out of a can, practically speak hello and entertain whomever is close. He is for sure one incredible horse.

We only had a few minutes for our session since we were losing light so quickly but Magic was a champ. Even though he wasn't crazy about my lights and he really didn't like my sof box, he still managed to strike a pose or two. I just the sweet sunset light.

 Meet The J family! It's hard to believe that we managed to have an outdoor photo session in November in Michigan no less, but we did! We had an absolutely perfect day and it was my pleasure to meet these three characters. These three had the most beautiful eyes and eye lashes and were such fun to work with. Little Miss wasn't too sure she wanted her portraits taken but a bit of silliness won her over in the end and with two older brothers, silliness wasn't hard to come by! Thanks Renee for allowing me to photograph your beautiful family.

 Meet Rena and Patrick!

I had such a good time photographing this beautiful couple on their special day last month. I've known Patrick's family for quite some time and was so happy when I was asked to help document this day. It turns out the bride and her family live super close to good friends of mine and I can't believe we hadn't met sometime in the past.Such a small world. We had the most perfect October weather for their day, beautiful blue sky, warm air with just a touch of fall to be felt. Rena was gorgeous in her wedding gown and Patrick was handsome in his dress blues. They are obviously madly in love and it showed all day.


Thank you so much for allowing Jamie and I to spend a part of your day with you. We wish you health, happiness and much love!

Grosse Pointe Michigan - Senior Photographer

 Meet Peter!

I love the sweet summer evening light for photography session, especially for senior sessions. Peter, his mom and I met up at Lochmoor Club for some images on the course. Peter is an avid golfer so this location was perfect for him. The grounds are immaculate and we were there at just the right time for some beautiful lighting. Once we finished at the club we headed over to a nearby park that has some great hard scapes to work with. Not to mention the great blue pond which just happen to match the color of his eyes. Love when that happens. Thanks Peter for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for your senior portraits! Looking forward to your studio session this winter.




Chesterfield Michigan Family Photographer

 Meet the Royster Family!
It was my pleasure to photograph this beautiful family late this summer. Such a beautiful family - and the kids were just a crack up. Okay, truth be told, our first session was a bit tricky. It was warm, a beautiful Saturday and the park was just over run with families enjoying the weather. We managed to get quite a few beautiful captures but we definitely needed to finish up the with another quick mini session and I am so glad we did. The second session was on a perfect evening, alot less crowded at the park and while we were racing the setting sun, we had a great time. The kids were so laid back and ready to participate. It was a complete blast to hang with the Royster family. Thanks so much for choosing Beth Eggert Photography to photograph your family.

Grosse Pointe Michigan - Family Photographer

 Wow, I love warm October weather and after the awful September we had here in Michigan, this month, so far, has been awesome! I was thrilled when we had such a gorgeous night to photograph this beautiful family. I've photographed them before but I was amazed at how much they have grown. Not to mention they've added a new four legged family member as well. I did feel badly for poor as it turned out, when he said he wasn't feeling well, he really wasn't feeling well and was really sick as soon as he got home. He did great though and was such a trooper. The girls were just too cute in their matching dresses and silly smiles. Thanks so much for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for your family portraits!

Senior Photographer - Cardinal Mooney Catholic

 Things I love about my job:
1. I get to photograph terrific seniors.
2. I get to meet some awesome families.
3. I get the chance to reconnect with families that I've known for a long time but haven't seen in forever!
4. Did I mention I get to photograph terrific seniors?

Meet Sarah T. I've known Sarah since she was about 7. Our families ran in the same soccer circles, played on the same teams and generally spent 3 nights a week together for a long time! I always loved when Sarah played on the same team as my girls. She is such a crack up - just silly and goofy and someone you could always count on to crack a joke and lighten the mood. Imagine my surprise to find her all grown up! She has always been a beautiful girl, even with the requisite ponytail and soccer cleats but to have the chance to work with her outside of the field was really great. And let me tell you, the girl could work it! We had such a good time at her studio and her location session a few weeks ago...great weather and good fun. It was nice to have Katie in a few of the images too. Now, we have to wrangle all five of the girls together! Thanks Sarah and Mary for choosing our studio for your portraits!

Senior Photographer - L'Anse Cruese North High School

 Meet Sydnee! I loved working with Sydnee. We had such a great time in the studio and on location. The weather was perfect, just a hint of a chill in the air but sunny. Sydnee is a volleyball player at LCN and I've actually photographed her before - way back when she was in 7th grade at Middle School East. I also had the pleasure of photographing her sister a few years ago as well. Sydnee is a natural in front of the camera and has such a beautiful smile. While we were at the park, I got such a kick out of her dogs! Thanks so much Sydnee and Sandy for choosing Beth Eggert Photography for your senior portraits!
