Welcome to my Beach & Garden World!

   



   I'm Bruce, thanks so much for visiting my website! I'm a Michigan City IN based photographer who travels all over to photograph. My wife and I have worked together for over 25 years. (That's Amazing) We both love to travel, and enjoy working in and around the garden.I enjoy listeing to The Rolling Stones or Jimmy Buffett (I get alot of inspiration from both) Some of my hobby's are golf. whenever I get a chance to play I do. Another hobby of mine is I coach freshman football. I like working with kids, thats why I photograph lots of families and their children along with High School Seniors. 

When I'm photographing I use mostly available light indoors or out, and I enjoy working at new locations I haven't worked at before. Most of my Portraits are made in the Hirsch Studio Gardens, or on a beach somewhere. I also travel to my clients homes and do Portraits around their home. And some of my Portraits are made in my studio in Michigan City.

My wife of 25 years, Linda, and I together with our three children enjoy our vacations in Florida each year. Indiana has its fair share of winter, and since most of my portraits I take is outdoors, I saw an opportunity to branch out and begin taking more portraits in Florida. I hang out in the  Estero, Florida area. The warm and sunny beaches there are ideal settings to my Beach Photography. One of my favorite spots is quiet Barefoot Beach in Bonita Springs, Florida - a beach that was voted one of the Top 10 Beaches.

I love to see the families I photograph just hanging out on the shore, interacting and being comfortable with each other. And, with its large beach area and plenty of paths meandering through dune grass, nearby Lake Michigan is still one of my favorite beaches for portraits. 

We want your portrait experiance to be an enjoyable one from start to finish. From deciding on your clothes and location, to an enjoyable and relaxing portrait session, to assisting you as you select your favorite portraits, Linda and I look forward to giving you the professional yet personal service you deserve.
