MVP Sports Clubs always make my photography shine with great usage. One of my first clients and with me since the early days!
Spectrum Health Regional Hospital Campaign
A really great collaboration with Spectrum Health and their regional health systems put together by Lead Marketing Group. I especially appreciate these awesome tear sheets too. We built a serious library over quite a few locations with the help of some wonderful patients and families.
Verify Health for The American Medical Association
Pleased with a recent project for Verifi Health which is the innovations and technology arm of The American Medical Association. We also worked with Carnevale to make it all happen and they know how to do world class work right here in Grand Rapids. My clippings don’t show it very well but there’s also some excellent ideas and copy here from Reese Creative. Exciting projects with great talent, hair and make-up, and location scouting to bring the creative process of commercial photography all together.
Magnetoencephalography
The Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital has a new device called a Magnetoencephalograph. I enjoyed showcasing the team along with the device with my photography. We are doing great things at Spectrum Health.
Feeding America
Sometimes the life of photography takes me some
pretty amazing places. This time the Upper Penninsula of Michigan to the beautiful town of Marquette, MI. This shoot for Feeding American and the food pantry of Northern Michigan University.
Fresh life to photography
A nice portion of my work is professional portraiture. Even during relatively quiet times as a professional photographer I get to do a few photos and then they show up in some pretty cool places for some awesome clients! Spectrum Health, Kevin Avis, Food Service
Blogging
On Monday I took a nice trip to Traverse City to do a little bit of winter road riding. If you have never been to Old Mission Peninsula, I highly recommend it. There are gorgeous views, kind drivers (important for cyclists), plenty of wineries and also Jolly Pumpkin. The breeze and feel of clean air from the bay is what I love though, even in the winter time.
On Tuesday, when I was back to work I received a pretty intriguing photoshoot request. I asked how the client found me and they said, “Google Search”. Seeing that I don’t blog much or spend a lot of time on my website I was pretty pleased.
Let’s hope the two go hand and hand. Cycling, blogging, and cool new photography projects.
Spectrum Health Beat
Fun to see my work in the Health Beat.

Collaborative Divorce Professional of West Michigan Portrait Session
I recently had the opportunity to photograph a collaborative group of divorce professionals. http://gentlerdivorce.com I enjoy doing group portrait sessions for a few different reasons. It’s a good challenge to get all of the lighting dialed in so that it can be repeatable. For example, one of the professionals was photographed in studio while the others were all on location. It might be a good challenge to identify which one was photographed at a different time. Another thing is providing an accurate representation of each individual in a relatively short amount of time.
Portraits
Most of my time is spent with professional portraits. Sometimes I have a chance to be creative and dial in the lighting a little bit more than normal. This one for some of my favorite it people at https://teamddm.com/
iMove Personality Portraits
I have been working with iMove for quite a few years. We came up with the idea to capture a more traditional standard portrait and then offer another image that showcases more of their awesome personalities. A few samples for your viewing pleasure.
MVP Sports Clubs
Always enjoy seeing what some of my favorite clients can do with our photography. Good stuff!
Social Media
In my career I do a lot of photography with many talented professionals. The beauty is that I often deliver a gallery of images and we don’t always know the end use. Lately, I have been seeing a lot of work pop-up in my Facebook feed from Spectrum Health. Social media isn’t always my main goal but it’s still pretty cool.
Location Photography
A team portrait that I worked on for Spectrum Health Innovations. Composite editing done in photoshop. All images done on location. Great flexibility doing things this way!
Spectrum Health and Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital
Spectrum Health celebrating 25 years of The Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital. Honored to have my photography featured. Grateful for an awesome team effort to get it all done!

Spectrum Health Meijer Clinic
Had a great shoot with Spectrum Health and Meijer along with Lead Marketing Group to market the awesome new health clinic inside of the Hudsonville Meijer. Great providers and my kind of photography.
Quick sample of how it was used.
Personal Project with Jim Hossler
Having a little fun working on a few thing in the photography studio.
DeVries Jewelers
Some recent work I did for DeVries Jewelers. It's great to do work over the years for such great clients. The team of Jim Hossler is always spot on too. This is a current billboard on US 131 Northbound. Check it out and check out DeVries! http://www.devriesjewelers.com & https://www.jimhossler.com
MSAF Michigan Sports Academies Foundation
I was grateful to be a part of the the MSAF Michigan Sports Academies Foundation tailgate. The event raises over $100,000 to support sports scholarships for the Michigan Basketball Association and Michigan Basketball Association.
Austin Hatch and Abby Cole were great speakers for the event.
Some of my photography and more details on the event are located here:

MVP Personality Photography
Something can be said for having clients for over 10 years. MVP Sportsclubs have been amazing and I love all of the photography that I get to do for them. Marketing and advertising campaigns, updating photos for their online apps with group exercise instructors, all the way to billboards. My kind of sports and fitness photography. www.mvpsportsclubs.com
