Senior Photographer - Michigan

You may know that I have three beautiful daughters. My oldest is officially a senior for the second time! That's right, a college senior. Soon she will be graduating from Western Michigan University. I can't believe that her four years away from home are almost done. I clearly remember the emotions of the day she moved  onto campus. I clearly remember my denial for the months leading up to that big day. I also remember how grateful I was for technology that enabled us to keep in touch so easily. I found that while I missed her like crazy, we still had our special chats, we could still share the highlights and the low times of our days and even though she wasn't physically here, we were still connected.

Over the last four years she's made Kzoo her second home and surrounded herself with another family. It was my pleasure to go to Kzoo last weekend and help her and her second family by photographing them for their upcoming senior show. If you happen to be in Kalamazoo anytime from February 6 through the 25th, stop by the studio in the Korman Center and check out their work. What a talented group of young women.

Ladies, I wish you much success as you wind down your college life! I thank you for taking good care of my baby! Best of Luck to you all.

Introducing Garrett - Beth Eggert Photography Class of 2013

Senior Model

 Meet Garrett! Garret is a Junior at LCN and happens to be one of my neighbors. It's so strange to see him all grown up since I first met him four and a half years ago when we moved into this neighborhood. I think that would've made him like 12 and in seventh grade. Garrett follows Hockey, Baseball and is a big NASCAR fan. He has a crazy dog named Zoey who thinks she is an alarm clock and likes to wake Garrett up early, even on the weekends! Garret likes to hang out with his friends, likes the band Daughtry (so do I!!!!) Something funny about Garrett, he says he always try to have "swag" but it isn't always working for him. Three words to describe Garrett are funny, outgoing, and smiley. Garret hopes to attend Western Michigan after graduation (Go Broncos!)

Hunter's favorite band is Perry (again, another one I don't know...sigh, old age has definately set in). She dances in her spare time and has three dogs.

Introducing Tyler - Class of 2013 Beth Eggert Photography 

Senior Model

Meet Tyler. Tyler is a junior at LCN and we met through mutual friends/clients. The Peltier's (both of whom I've done senior portraits for) referred Tyler to me and I'm so glad they did. Tyler is a great guy, he plays hockey on a travel team (you can see, has a bit of the hockey hair goin' on - love it!). Believe it or not, his favorite band isn't a band at all but a female artist, Carrie Underwood. In his spare time Tyler likes to tweet and he DJ's (well that sounds like fun!). Here's a little funny about Tyler you may not know, he likes to shop, especially  for shoes and hats!

Three words that best describe Tyler would be funny, charming and sarcastic. Tyler plans on attending either Lake Superior State or Denver University. Welcome Tyler, it's great to have you on the team.

Kayla attends Dakota High School and is involved in Cheer leading...well she will be again once her acl is healed (ouch!!) Kayla's favorite band is The Fray (Sweet! I know who they are and I love them too! I made it back to cool mode!) Kayla likes to hangout with friends and go shopping (ahhh, don't we all!) and she has one dog. 

Here's one funny thing about Kayla you may not know, her hair has to always be perfect! Well that's a good thing for a model! Three words that best describe Kayla are outgoing, happy, and nice - and I totally agree. Kayla plans to attend U of M after graduation. Welcome to the team Kayla.

Meet Lauren - Beth Eggert Photography Class of 2013 Senior Model

I am pleased to introduce Lauren as one of our Class of 2013 Senior Models. Lauren attends Anchor Bay High School where she is a member of the Marching Band as well as National Honor Society. Lauren's favorite band is Big Time Rush (okay, again feeling old here since I don't know this band either!) and she likes to hang out with friends. Lauren has THE most adorable dog named Riley who is a labra-doodle. He is big, and sweet and very cuddly.Yes, I know this from personal experience since I've known Lauren since she was about 6! Three words to describe Lauren are caring, understanding and nice and I can attest to all three! Lauren is planning on attending Oakland after she graduates.

I've had the pleasure of photographing Lauren before...a few years ago we did a family session when her older brother Tony was a model. Lauren is a natural in front of the camera and it's hard for me to believe that she is all ready finishing up her Junior year in High School. Thanks Lauren, for being part of our team!

 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.
