KARA HANES

I live and work in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and I love photographing weddings across West Michigan, Detroit, and Chicago. My couples value genuine connection, joyful moments, and timeless storytelling through photography.

Hi, I'm KARA.

Seniors

Aaron Tatman Senior Session

A couple weeks ago Aaron’s mom contacted me as they were nearing to the senior yearbook submission this month. They had some bad luck with weather in the fall and so they figured a studio session would be perfect. Aaron is a senior at Jenison High School. He has a love for his botany class where he is growing potatoes named Bert and Ernie. He also has a love for his squish mallows that you’ll see throughout the post. I think it’s only important for me to introduce you to their names. Aaron is also one who loves hugs, ketchup, and hotdogs. He is absolutely the sweetest. Aaron I hope you enjoy the remainder of senior year I wish all the best for the future!
