I have gotten so many heartwarming reviews from people raving about the fun experience and quality artwork that exceeded their expectations!
I offer a full-service boutique client experience that allows me to serve you at the highest level! What is a "boutique" experience you ask? It means that I will spend lots of time getting to know you and your family's individual preferences so that I can personally guide you through each step of the process to create beautiful art for your home. I don't want to add another task to your to-do list, I will be hands-on so that you don't have to be! I pride myself on being flexible with unique situations and providing you with beautiful art to hang in your home no matter what your schedule looks like. I look forward to getting to know you and your family and creating magic together ♡
Imagine walking into your home and instantly being greeted by the moments that make your heart sing—the joy of your family’s laughter, the pride in your senior’s eyes, the love and connection that define your story. That’s the power of wall art. It’s more than decoration—it’s a daily celebration of everything you hold dear.
For families, wall art turns fleeting moments into lasting treasures, a visual reminder of the love that fills your home. For seniors, it’s a bold declaration of their individuality, achievements, and the exciting future ahead. These aren’t just photos—they’re milestones frozen in time, beautifully displayed for everyone to admire.
When we plan your session, we’ll craft every detail with your walls in mind. I’ll help you envision how these moments will come to life, from vibrant gallery walls to striking stand-alone pieces. During your ordering appointment, we’ll transform your favorite images into tangible works of art that bring joy every time you see them.
Wall art isn’t just for today; it’s for tomorrow and every day after. It’s the legacy you leave behind, a way to share your story with future generations. Your memories deserve to be seen, celebrated, and cherished—not stuck on a hard drive or lost in a digital gallery.
Booking a session with me means you’re investing in more than photos—you’re investing in artwork that makes your heart skip a beat every time you walk past it. Together we'll turn your moments into masterpieces!
There are a few things I do that set me apart from traditional photographers, and because of this, I am able to provide personalized services for each of my clients! Here is what you can expect from the time I receive your inquiry to the delivery of your portraits:
Each step of my process is curated to your specific wants and needs, and allows me to cater to any schedule! As a mom myself, I understand the need to be flexible, in-home consultations and ordering sessions are available (and encouraged!) to make the consultation easily accessible and allow for everyone to be as present and comfortable as possible! I go over these steps in depth during the process so that you always know what to expect next. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about the process, my timeline, or anything else that comes to mind. If you're ready to book your session, submit a request using the button below. I look forward to chatting with you, friend!
I primarily schedule my sessions at public or private outdoor locations, and can also photograph your family in the comfort of your home! I do not currently have an operating studio, but that doesn't mean that options aren't available! Send me a message to discuss possible outdoor and indoor locations.
In more or less words, it means that I will "hold your hand" through the whole process! I list out what you can expect during the process in the section below, but here's a quick overview: First, I will schedule a consult call to gather information about your vision and make sure we are a good fit for your wants and needs. Then we will work closely together from beginning to end to ensure that you get exactly what you're looking for from your session! My focus is on creating custom Wall Art for your home, and I will personally help you pick out the perfect pieces for your space.
I am based in Cheboygan, but I often travel to Mackinaw City, Mackinac Island, Petoskey, Boyne, Gaylord, and all the small towns and campgrounds in between! I travel all over Michigan, so reach out if you'd like a travel quote for your next portrait session or wedding. Ask about booking a session on Mackinac Island or at Lavender Hill Farms for a unique background!

"My first time EVER professional and family photos were done by Lively Sharp Photography! She did a great job keeping my family (4 kids and husband) focused and smiling! After, she stayed in touch with questions and answers in helping me pick out EXACTLY what I wanted (and I’m very picky, lol) she was very timely! I would highly recommend her and was very well pleased with my first experience! Thanks again, Jazmine!!"

"Jazmine is super professional and takes amazing pictures! She was able to do it last second for me when my photographer canceled and I'm honestly glad it happened that way! She was 100% open to my ideas and even did research to make sure I got exactly what I wanted which I was super impressed by! She got my pictures back super fast! I will definitely be booking her in the future to do any photos for my little family! Such a great person to work with and she takes amazing pictures!"

"My daughter and I just had a photoshoot with Jazmine yesterday and she already had the gallery up to look through today. She even took a few photos of us that I didn't even realize she was shooting and some of those are my favorite!"

"If you're looking for a great, professional local photographer, look no further. I am so happy with the "Back to School" photos she took of the children! They turned out exactly how I envisioned. I will highly recommend her to family and friends and will most certainly use her again for our family photos!!"
