There are pictures and there are Pictures. Lansing photographer Danielle Cook Gerritsen takes Pictures. Blending art, action, emotion, composition, and storytelling, Gerritsen 's pictures always tell a story about the people they portray. This brings them to life in a way that most pictures can't approach. "I l like looking at a photo and being able to see a story, a picture in your mind," she says. "That's really helped me to be able to capture relationships and emotion in other people."
Gerritsen specializes in weddings and events, commercial and portrait photography. Based in Lansing, she has worked as far afield as New York, East Aurora, Saratoga Springs, and Scranton. While she does a lot of wedding photography, she also works with businesses. Locally she works with such businesses as Sincredible Pasteries, the John Joseph Inn and Elizabeth Restaurant, the Blossom Beauty Spa, and Michaleen's Florist, and has photographed many fashion shows.
