I believe it’s important to give back to those in our community; to share the talents I have been given. I really do believe that everyone deserves to have their memories captured, and that senior portraits are a big part of creating a legacy. Senior portraits aren’t just a sign that you’re done with [...]

The Ladies’ Night of Indulgence at Precision Spinal Care was a huge success! The exclusive evening “getaway” was fully RSVP’ed to, and some ladies even brought friends!
A number of relaxation services were offered, as well as pampering products! Massage therapists gave chair massages, stylish manicures were offered, and a plethora of jewelry, Tupperware, [...]

You might remember we joined Twitter a while back. Well, I’ve been having a blast following lots of content that is relevant to my life. And, the more I looked, the more twitter users I started to find in the Ann Arbor area. So, if you’re not on Twitter, maybe now is [...]

Let’s face it. Photography and printed photographs are never going to be completely environmentally friendly. We care for the environment and want to share some ways in which we are doing our part to reuse, reduce, and recycle. Some of the ways that Betsy’s Photography is “going green” include going digital, using [...]

I just received a note from Jennifer Colby, the event coordinator for Gordon Hall here in Dexter. This Thursday, (September 11th, 2008), make sure to eat at the Dexter Pub. The Dexter Pub is donating a portion of proceeds to the Dexter Area Historical Society for Gordon Hall:
Please help raise money to replace [...]

This weekend I went and stopped by the Airshow (Yankee Air Museum’s Thunder Over Michigan). We didn’t stay as long as initially planned (the rainclouds started looking awfully foreboding), but still had a great time. One of the events we spent the most time at was the WWII ground battle reenactment.
And, since I [...]

Every year, Greenhills High School offers a neat opportunity for the current senior class — Senior Projects! The last three weeks of the semester, students can choose to work on a Senior Project of their choosing — instead of going to classes. Of course, the projects require a proposal and a faculty sponsor, [...]

This afternoon I got to share my love of photography with a class of middle school students! It’s been a while now, but a long time ago I actually was a student at Emerson School here in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It’s a cute little school that has a great musical and [...]

If you’ve been meaning to call us about having your family portrait created, now is a perfect time! During the month of April (2008), we will be raising money for charity. In lieu of our normal family portrait session fee, we will be requesting a donation of $75 (or more if you like!), to one [...]

I volunteer for a non-profit organization called Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep (NILMDTS), and I think their mission is too compassionate not to share with you! I also wanted to share this video clip from this morning’s Today Show (NBC). Reporter Kerry Sanders profiled a NILMDTS photographer and family from [...]

Sometimes we get to attend events that we’re not photographing! Tonight was one of those nights; we attended a benefit auction for the Educational Foundation of Dexter (It’s a non-profit that provides financial support for the Dexter Schools — often in the form of grants).
In addition to the live and silent auction items, there [...]

One of the great things about getting involved in your community is the people and local businesses you get to know. Since moving to Dexter, we haven’t had nearly enough time to get to know everyone, but we have met a lot of new faces! While we’re still relatively new to the community, [...]

UPDATE: Detroit’s 4 the Best have been chosen, and while we didn’t quite make it, we were close — it was great to have your support. The majority of winners in the various categories were closer in physical location to Detroit than Ann Arbor (or even Dexter). Many, many people voted; and to [...]
