There's no better time than now to have some photos of you and your quarantine crew using a telephoto lens from my car.

​

Since everyone is home, many with their families, why not use this time to support a local artist AND receive a beautiful portrait to commemorate this extremely weird time 😂 This is not just for families! Have you ever had a nice photo taken of you and your dog? This is your chance to do it for a fraction of the normal price! When you sign up for this service from Exposures by Rah, you'll pay $20 to reserve your date/time. I will arrive with my telephoto lens to snap a handful of photos at a safe distance from my car.

 

Your photos will be posted in our editorial gallery called Northern Michigan Porch-raits: The COVID-19 Sessions. We are providing a public link to share this body of artwork - find your neighbors here:

1-10 photos will be posted in this gallery THE SAME NIGHT and if you like your pictures, you can purchase the high resolution files directly through the editorial gallery. 1 file is $35, additional files are $25 each. You can also purchase heavily discounted prints, canvases, metal wall art & more. Further donations to help support your friendly Northern Michigan photography team while our income has halted can be made directly to Exposures by Rah through Paypal by CLICKING HERE.

​

In this time of uncertainty, it's important that we come together and lift each other's spirits. Our hope in this is to bring a smile to your face, give you (and us!) a good reason to get out of (y)our jammies (unless you're doing jammie photos, we're down with that too!) and dress up your porch in creative decor for pictures.

​

This also gives you a chance to be creative and show the world what makes you unique! Dress up like super heroes, set up porch dance party, bring out your pets, and really express yourself!

In order to make this as economical on my gas tank as possible, please choose a day based on your address:

​

Monday & Wednesday
Grand Traverse County

​

Tuesday & Friday
Leelanau County

​

Thursday
Antrim County

​

Saturday
Benzie County

​

100% of the proceeds from each session fee will be donated to the amazing hometown heroes working tirelessly for our community at Munson Medical Center.

​

I want people to feel good about supporting this project, and I really want to do my part to safely join the fight. I’m not good at sewing like all the wonderful people who are making masks, so this is my socially distanced creative way of giving back to the fight while also bringing joy to my community. It’s such a scary and uncertain time for everyone. My friends and family members are healthcare workers and have weakened immune systems. This is my way of feeling like I can make a difference.

​

Session fees will be waived for healthcare workers.

Thank you to everyone who supported us and Munson's COVID19 fund during this time. We are no longer scheduling porch-rait sessions, but please get in touch with us about scheduling your family photo session by clicking here.
