Let me share a bit of my heart with you and why taking time to take the photos matters. It is not always the easiest thing to speak of, but we have all either lost someone we have loved or walked alongside a loved one who has experienced loss. Suddenly, the photos we have of our loved ones become priceless heirlooms, containing the ability to transport us to past moments of joy, to bring us back home.

finding a piece of yourself separate and apart that all the same you could not live without.
Sometimes when you pick up your child
you can feel the map of your own bones beneath your hands, or smell the scent of your skin in the nape of their neck.
This is the most extraordinary thing about motherhood:
motherhood
maternity | newborn | motherhood
from bumps to babies and all things motherhood
Whether you are expecting or already a mom, this is the place for you! Motherhood sessions are just that, a time for any mom to spend some quality time loving on her kids (regardless of the kiddos' ages). So grab a cup of coffee or tea and allow me to show you my heart for serving all moms (and their kiddos) in the Greater-Lansing area and beyond.

Whether your pregnancy has been a dream or you have struggled physically, you deserve to be pampered. Let me outfit you in a gorgeous dress from my client closet (a curated collection of dresses for you to use), and let's meet at golden hour to capture this fleeting time in your life. Typically, maternity sessions take place between 28-35 weeks; partners and/or children are welcome to participate, or we can just focus on mom.

Getting mamas in front of my camera at all stages of motherhood is a passion of mine!
This is never more true than during pregnancy.

THESE ARE RELAXED AND CAN BE IN YOUR HOME, IN A STUDIO (RENTAL FEE APPLIES), OR OUTDOORS (MY FAVORITE) IN WARMER WEATHER.
FRESH 48 SESSIONS HOSPITAL SESSIONS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE.
Allow me to make this process as stress-free as possible. I will bring outfits for mom, baby, and any siblings to your home. While I love to shoot these within the first two weeks of baby's arrival, there is flexibility in timing with lifestyle newborn sessions. I do not shoot traditional/posed shots, but you can expect lots of baby snuggles, kisses, and details to be artistically captured within the comfort of your home. Outdoor newborn sessions are also available during summer.
the experience
As a mother of 3, I love being able to capture your baby's arrival with a life-style, baby-led session.

THESE ARE FOR ALL MOMS (OR GRANDMOTHERS) REGARDLESS OF HOW OLD YOUR CHILDREN ARE. AS MOMS, WE NATURALLY PUT OUR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES FIRST. OFTEN TIMES, THIS MEANS THAT WE ARE THE ONES TAKING THE PHOTOS AND PLANNING THE EVENTS. LET ME TAKE THAT BURDEN OFF YOUR PLATE.
the experience
To say I'm passtionate about getting you, mama, in front of my camera, is an understatement!
SOMEDAY, YOUR KIDS WILL WANT TO LOOK BACK ON THESE MEMORIES AND SEE HOW YOUR HAND STROKED THEIR CHEEK OR WIPED A TEAR AWAY, HOW YOU RACED THEM IN THE TWILIGHT, AND SANG THEIR FAVORITE SONG WHILE THEY SNUGGLED AGAINST YOU -THEIR FIRST HOME.
the experience
Your only task is to show up
and love on your littles (or big kids),
and let me capture your heart for you.

styling is key
Let me take the stress out of styling
Styling is key. When we bring in clothes that move well, have amazing textures, and are neutral/earth tones, it enhances the story-telling feel of your photos. Because styling is so important, I have invested thousands of dollars in a client closet of women's and children's clothes from some of my favorite stores that you can borrow for your session. As a mom, I know that outfitting your family is expensive and have heard from countless parents that this is one of the most stressful parts of getting photos. My solution is to take away the stress and cost of outfitting everyone! Set up a try-on appointment and we can play dress-up and see what looks best on you, Mom. I have options from xs-3xxl. Once we have your outfit figured out, we can choose gorgeous, coordinating outfits for the whole family. I'm happy to put together shopping options as well if needed or desired.
If you are looking for a more laid-back vibe that feels like your family every day, let's work together to put together outfits from your closet (or I can make shopping suggestions) to fit your style and the location chosen. I'm ready to help as much as needed or desired.

asked questions
Because it means that you get images where your kiddos' personalities or you and your partner's love shines thru in an authentic way. The focus is on capturing details that highlight this stage of life. I exercise artistic freedom to incorporate intentional blur, to add grain to some photos, decide between a bolder/colorful edit or a softer/vintage edit, and look for unique angles and ways to document your family's story. Feel free to let me know what you are drawn to in my work!
Why is capturing connection thru candids over traditional photos a benefit?
frequently
asked questions
Sessions take place in Haslett/Williamston/Okemos area (48840) (additional travel fees apply for locations outside of this) and outdoor sessions take place an hour to an hour and a half before sunset.
Studio sessions are subject to studio availability and a studio rental fee (but can be scheduled during the day).
Beach sessions at Lake Michigan are available in warmer months, please indicate that you are interested in this option when contacting me.
Where do sessions take place?
frequently
asked questions
A lot of work goes into creating a beautiful session for my clients. From styling assistance, to on-going education, to spending hours hand editing each and every image (which includes a lot of brushwork on each image something that not all photographers do), to purchasing clothing for the client closet and being available for try-on appointments--all of these things help me to provide a more boutique experience for my clients in an effort to create stunning images unique to your family that you will cherish for years to come! A typical family session takes 6 hours to edit.
your packages are more expensive than I am used to. Why is that?
frequently
asked questions
If interested in booking both with a maternity and newborn session, please check out the bundled maternity/newborn package.
Returning clients who have had a full session with me in the last calendar year are eligible for a discount, please reach out.
do you offer any discounts?
frequently
asked questions
Because my passion is in storytelling and that requires more time than minis allow, I only offer minis occasionally. I post these on my Facebook @Annie Dunigan Photography and/or IG @Annieduniganphoto. However, check out the Taste of Home if you would like a smaller package than my storytelling package.
do you offer any mini-sessions?
frequently
asked questions
I believe that each of us is unique and beautiful, so I do not do extensive body and/or face edits. While I will remove small acne and can apply a light amount of skin smoothing, my main edits are focused on correcting white balance, temperature/tint, and enhancing the way light enriches the scene. I do not remove lots of fly-aways and in fact LOVE wind swept hair. I also do not believe in changing body composition. If this is something you are looking for, I can make suggestions on photographers who may be a good fit.
what is included in your edits?
frequently
asked questions
Communicate with me about outfits prior to the session. Fill out the questionnaire that is sent at least a week before the session as this helps me tailor your session to fit your family and that I can capture any special requests.
Get everyone fed (naps if needed) and show up on time! Depending on your kiddos, some bribery (who doesn't love ice cream afterwards? I may just join you!) can help some kids to be excited. Others get excited to wear special outfits or play games!
Finally, relax and breathe! Let your kids be kids. Go into it with the only expectation being that you will love on your family and know that I will capture your living art!
what can i do to ensure we get the best photos?
frequently
asked questions
Yes, please! I love to see you share my work and interact with me on social media. Just please do not put a filter over the work as I have put my heart and hours upon hours of education into learning and creating a beautiful product for you.

can i share my images on social media?
frequently
asked questions
Please share your photos! (Just no filters please!) Share on social media, plaster them all over your home and work, and tell your friends! My business is driven by referrals, and I so appreciate you spreading the word if you loved your session. You can also leave a review. If there is anything I can do to make your experience more enjoyable, please let me know! There is nothing more that I love than having clients return!
i love my photos so much! what can I do?
