stacy and jeremy


Amanda and I had so much fun trekking up to Spartyville ( aka E. Lansing) for a great Sparty wedding . As anyone knows who has been on campus, it is so gorgeous everywhere you looK!
Even the butter at the reception had little Sparty's on it, but butter is incredible reflective and hard to photograph ( who knew?)
I had wonderful time with Stacy and Jeremy and all of their friends and family. Enjoy the pics!

Facelift time for the Kat Foley PhotoBox!

Undoubtedly, you have seen the car before. You pull up to a stoplight , to only look up and see the baby foot on the back of the car. It is usually at that point that you honk or wave to me, for which I am grateful . If I look baffled , it is only because you don' t have your name on the side of your car, so it takes me a moment to realize I didn't cut someone off, to recognize you and wave back.




The car is getting a facelift, with your help! I will be posting 8-10 pictures that will be in contention to be the new face ( or faces ) of Kat Foley Photo. But, right now, I am taking suggestions. The baby foot will still be on the back , because it is easily recognizable and on most of my promotional materials.

Maybe it was an image from your photo shoot, or one you saw at your friend's house, or from the website. What images do you want to see on the PhotoBox? Keep in mind, I am mainly a baby and child photographer , and do select weddings. So most of the images on the car, I'd like to be of babies and children, but I am open to suggestions!

Email your image number or description to katfoleyphoto@yahoo.com and maybe it will become a finalist in "Operation Facelift. "

Your opinion matters! Thank you for helping me get a new look! It is an honor to be your family photographer.

Ethan, welcome to the world...














Meet Ethan!
Three days old.
Ethan's mom and I went to college together at Saint Mary's , so we can't help but be Notre Dame fans, and Ethan's dad is quite possibly one of the biggest Michigan fans I have ever met, so we comprised with these photos. I have to admit, that Ethan shuddered a little bit when I put the Notre Dame "Play Like A Champion Today" magnet near him, so maybe he'll follow in dad's footsteps. ( Or maybe he was just cold.. )

This little guy was so sweet and I was absolutely thrilled just to meet him. We took photographs of five generations altogether! He did a great job, and he is certainly lucky to have such great parents and a wonderful family who is welcoming him to the world with open arms.

Old Mission and Torch Lake











Hi everyone!


I went to Northern Michigan to see my good friends , Ann Detar Green in Torch Lake ( no Madonna or Michael Moore spottings to report) and the Patton family in Old Mission.
I was so impressed by the community feeling in Old Mission. I met the Patton family when I was living in San Diego, and we'd share our Michigan connection. The Pattons love their place in Old Mission and I was so impressed by the entire community and I was glad I finally made it up there.

It was like a Norman Rockwell painting. Quinnessential summer, kids playing in the water, riding bikes and even neighborhood baseball games . I was just as impressed with the history, many of the cottages where passed on from one family member to the next, each generation bringing their children up for a taste of what they remember their childhood to be. It I remember one parent saying to another, " Can you believe that we are the parents now?"

If you want to see the pictures from my time Up North.. go to katfoleyphoto.com and click on proofing -- the password is "mission". I tried to post them on a free site, but there were so many pictures that it crashed my computer! So i posted them on my professional site, because it loads much faster. If you would like copies of any of these pics, email me the number ( it is listed underneath the image) and I'll post that one to a free site so you can print it.

If you are looking specifically for the baseball game pics, i think they are around page 16-18.
