Metro Detroit family photographer

Fun, people-centered photos, no stiff posing allowed

Real laughs, muddy shoes, kids who won't sit still. That's the good stuff!

I photograph babies, kids, families and grads all over Metro Detroit, outdoors, exactly as you are.

Hi, I'm Marni

Your friend with a really good camera

I'm not into stiff poses or forced smiles. I want your kid mid-laugh, your toddler mid-meltdown-recovery, your family exactly as loud and wonderful as you actually are.

I've spent years learning the best light in Metro Detroit's parks, orchards, and backyards, so when we shoot together, all you have to do is show up and be yourselves. I'll handle the rest.
