Luce Photography

Luce Photography Family + Newborn Photographers We're Julie and Lisa, the twins behind the Luce Photography duo!
(1)

We're based out of Bay City, MI, and we love laughing, snuggling, playing, sunsets, sunrises, textures, colors, and finding beauty in unexpected places. Our style is posed and unposed, authentic, contrasty, and vibrant. We shoot families, expectant mamas, newborns, seniors, and all the milestones in between.

Did you know the most common birthday month is August?

Our birthday is coming up in November, and we always struggle coming up with something fun to do in the winter. We love taking a weekend trip to Traverse City, but with the potential for snow and bad weather, the long drive always seems risky.

What do you do for fun during the winter months?

Feels like it's been forever since we've posted actual session photos... So enjoy this throwback to early summer when our flower field still looked like this, and the entire summer still lay ahead!

What were your favorite adventures this summer? ☀🏖⛺

Long, emotional post ahead, guys. You’ll want to read it…

Running a business is no doubt a roller coaster full of ups and downs, and this year we’ve had a lot of both. But going through all of those pivotal moments has really allowed us to take a step back and reassess the direction we want our lives to go. It was mind-boggling to us when we realized we’ve been doing this for a third of our lives already! There are SO many things we love about it, including all of our wonderful clients, but we’ve also learned that this is a really tough and misunderstood industry, and we’re just tired.

We’ve given every single thing we have to this business, and honestly, we’re burnt out and desperate for a change. And although change is scary, we also know it’s necessary for growth.

We don’t know what the future holds at this point, but we’re excited and optimistic to see what comes next for us. With that being said, we have decided to not open up booking for 2025. We’ve thought long and hard about this for months, and it was not with ease that we came to this decision. Know it when we say that we’re heartbroken to walk away from this, and we’ll miss photographing all of your beautiful families.

We know that photography is a luxury service, and we’ve always pushed ourselves to give the absolute best experience that we could, so THANK YOU for seeing the value in us, and for sticking with us even in this tough economy! We’re grateful that although we won’t be able to capture new memories for you, we were able to be a part of some of your biggest milestones. That’s an honor that we’ll never forget.

And to all of our First-Year Package clients who will be ongoing into next year, don’t worry! We will still finish off your remaining sessions, and we will be contacting you individually to discuss options.

🌲🌲 We're taking Holiday Minis back outside this year!! 🌲🌲

We'll be keeping these super classic and simple, with no setup aside from beautiful Mother Earth.

The location pictured won't be the actual spot we'll be using, but it'll be similar with the pine trees, and hopefully a golden sunset, a little bit of snow, and a whole lotta love. 🥰

We'll only be doing 4 sessions a night, on both Friday and Saturday, November 8th and 9th, so spots will likely fill up fast!

Booking will officially open this Saturday at noon, so be sure to check back here then to grab one!

Every year when summer rolls around, I'm reminded how lucky we are to have a State Park in our city. It's come such a long way from when we were children. If you haven't been out there in years, I highly recommend you make a visit! It's so beautiful!!

2023 -> 2024

These sweet photos speak for themselves. ❤

We hear all the time how people wish they'd have included their pet in the family photos before it was too late.

This is such a beautiful way to honor your furbabies while they're still here... and after.

Pet Minis are next Saturday, August 3rd, and we still have a couple times open. Message us for details!
