There was one day when people said the tulips would be at their prime and it wasn't during Tulip Time, it was a Sunday on my only day off of the week :)

There’s a song called that goes, “This is my Winter Song to you” and kind of the same except, this is my Winter Post to you” - they say it was a pretty mild winter here in West Michigan, but here’s some pictures from a couple snow storms!

Hello photog followerrrs! 👋 I realized I haven’t made any posts since moving to Michigan on here mainly because I haven’t really restarted my business here yet because of time. However I have still been taking my camera out. So here’s a part of some posts I will be doing on my time around Holland! (With what I’ve done on my camera)
On that note - I will be starting back up soon, so if you know of people in the West Michigan area/Grand Rapids, I would love to start photographing people again! I have a wedding this Friday in Fort Wayne to kick the season back off but after that, I’m going to try to be booking as much as possible! (I will probably need help getting back on the algorithms so I may be asking for people to help share and engage on posts… sorry hahah)

Catching up on posting sessions! This one was a portrait-headshot session and my gosh it was fun!! Journey is a sports photographer and she is GOOD! Check out her work at !

Now I know, most people in this area are either snowed in, or bundled up, but that’s what indoor studios and fun bundled up sessions are for! But for now, enjoy photos from a super fun headshot session earlier this year!

North Webster, IN has an annual Mermaid Festival and some of us from the camp staff went. (well we got coffee at the local cafe first)
I took my camera. We can confirm we saw mermaids.
although my camera, photos I am in and another one of the two amazing ladies were taken by camp staff .

Photos from a recent headshot session that I did! If you are looking for new photos for LinkedIN, or social in general, or even if your company is looking for some updated ones! Reach out to me and check out my website in my bio!

When someone says their wedding/reception is at the , I cannot wait for the opportunities that will bring for photos. And the colors they chose!
I would love to photograph your big day! Just head over to the link in the bio and look at the wedding packages. DM me here to start a conversation and guidance! I am still booking for 2023 as well as 2024, so let’s do this!

It’s all in the details.

Wedding season is coming up and I cannot even tell you HOW excited I am. I have grown to love weddings over the years when I first started off over 10 years ago very nervous. If you want someone who loves love, can be there for you if you need to wrangle in the crew, get all the photos and dancing a little all while doing that? Then head over to the link in the bio and look at wedding packages. DM me here to start a conversation and guidance! I am still booking for 2023 as well as 2024, so let’s do this!

Taking a step back to remember just last month how I was standing in front of beautiful waves, the sound of the ocean, and a quiet sandy beach. Then came getting all my taxes finally together and getting all of that done for tax day. Throw in some down days, some stressful days, some days of pure joy, and now catching up with edits and invoices. Oh, and setting up a much better system for next years taxes. :) If you haven’t been over to my website, you can check it out in my bio. We still need to add portfolio and blogs, but I’m still so, very happy with how and I came to the look of it for the official launch and can’t wait to see where it takes the business. 💛

I haven’t been personally sharing what I’ve been working on lately. That’s definitely to come, but recently I took some photos of Josh Raines and I love how he’s been sharing them! Congrats to him on this news too!!!

I have news!!!!! I have a website and I'm going full time with my business ...
ok, you know I am more excited that that.
LISTEN UP EVERYONE. (I mean please..it's a slightly wordy post, but worth it)
I have been working with my friend Joshua Vire(Fire By Night Design Co) on a brand new website, and the first one I've technically ever had to the public. I could not have done this without Josh though. So yeah, FIRST, but not all, A WEBSITE!!! I have a WEBSITE!!!
What's next, after listening to what the Lord has been telling me and hearing the encouragement around me, I have decided to go FULL TIME with my photography and video business!!!! So that means I need YOU! I need you to help me. Share my website, recommend me to those looking for a photographer, book that session you have been wanting to do! I will be possibly annoying you the next week or so with re-launch deals and stories of what has been going on behind the scenes. But this.....
I can’t tell you how thankful I am for Josh. He was amidst starting his business when helping me with mine. I honestly had no idea what to do with it but he came through with asking what I wanted as far as colors/style/ect. We went through different ways to set it up and early in the process, within a few days, I came back to the website in awe. He made a website dream come true. He is a helper of small businesses and will take time to figure out what you want. There are still some things to add, but I will be adding more as time goes on. But without listening to God making it clear to me, without my mom cheering me on in early days, and without Josh’s patience, kindness, encouragement, and overall super detailed help, I couldn’t have done this. Not at all by myself. But I finally have a website after many years of having a business. Thank. You. Jesus. So go book away now please and thank you. 😁😅

Spring wasn’t showing up too much in Indiana so I came a little more south.

Um hi. Can people book a session with me so I can use these couches? I did a session in this building but these couches were being used and I feel like I just need to go back and use them. Message me for details and please let me photograph you on these! 😁

I took these photos the day we had an icy weather kind of day. 2.22.2023.

When that sunset hits just right🌞
is such a beautiful location and this wedding was BLESSED by getting this view! Totally love when there is time to take some creative photos in the mix of everything else. I also cannot wait until I post more photos of this wedding!

Hey! Just to keep everyone in the loop, I have stepped away from social media right now but needed to make an update to the business pages! (Messengers will still be open)

MargoJean Photography is going under a bit of rebranding and will be back soon! A new website is coming and I'm looking forward to releasing it soon! However, excuse us while we take a short break to work hard and continue to wipe the dust off the name and bring back a fresh new look!

As far as booking, that is still happening during this time as well as photographing sessions. All you need to do is hop over to the messages, send one my way and and let's set something up! I am excited and ready to come back and create so many beautiful stories and connect with so many more in the next year!

Many blessings toward you all and I hope that you have such a great time this holiday season with the people you have been blessed to have in your life! To those who need them, let’s get that photo for a Christmas card, don’t wait, and reach out!

Hello! I don’t think I have done a proper introduction in awhile and what better way than a Monday afternoon.
✨
So my name is Margo Jean and I think the handle gives that away. I’ll throw some random facts about myself and you can comment if there’s anything else you’d like to know!
•I have an identical twin sister
•In the last few years I’ve gone outside my comfort zone and done many weddings and MMA fight nights. (Which is why I struggle on what to post to be consistent in style 😅)
•I’ve had a camera in my hand all the way back to disposables and film
•It took me 8 years of school in a total of 10 years before I finally graduated with an art major(and I don’t regret it)
•I love coffee .. I mean what photographer doesn’t
•I have done photog for 10+ years and recently started doing video in the last few years as well!
•I need a personal assistant that can remember to post on my social and respond to emails 😅
•I love to go on rides with my vintage road bike
•I’m a sucker for flowers from Farmer’s Markets
•I’m Indiana born and raised.. and still here.
•I have a full time job in marketing
•When I’m not editing, I’m probably watching Netflix and/or playing my Nintendo switch or laughing with friends.
✨
If you are still reading then cool. I hope you stick around as I get to posting more and more lately.
Oh and this photo was taken by my bro with my cam and edited by me in Virginia Beach this last March… I need to post those photos too 😅😁

Go check out this video I made earlier this year for STAR 88.3! This was for the Three Rivers festival and they worked so hard to get a QUICK venue change to still do the concert out of the rain. Such an incredible team that is working to spread the gospel over the community through genuine outreach and love for the city! Always love getting a chance to work with them!

I absolutely love doing family photos. This was such a fun and joyful family and so fun with their children getting some energy out for some candid fun photos too as we walked the trails. That also might be my favorite kind 😁🌲🌲🌲

Someone call Zach Morris.
I just happen to have friends who won’t let awkward family photos be a thing of the past.

Hi. I’m the photographer of this page and I’m also in these photos. Taken by and all edited by me.

I feel pretty dumb for not sharing a lot lately, especially this event. It just so happens it’s happening again at the Memorial Coliseum this Saturday, October 30!

is a pro/am sanctioned fight happening here with fighters from all around the country!

Paige is incredible. And doing video for this wedding was absolutely amazing 💕

Realizing I never posted photos from the Fourth of July at my sister’s house, but summer isn’t over yet so we’re good 🎇
