Michigan Challenge Balloonfest | Howell, MI Commercial Photographer, Detroit Metro, Commercial Photographer

Every year my family makes it a point not to miss out on Balloonfest. We have so much fun from watching the balloons take off at the launch site, fireworks, the balloon glow, the carnival and the list goes on. However our favorite part of the weekend is what we do together on Sunday night. While most families are back down at the launch site oooo-ing and ahhhh-ing over the balloons going up my family is watching from afar, waiting on pins and needles to see which direction the balloons will be headed and this is when the chase begins. We get in our car and follow the balloons, trying to figure out where they are going to land. Will it be in a subdivision like last year, will it be on a golf course like the year before? Watching them land is amazing, and being able to get up close with the kids is such a blast! I have a ton of pictures to show you but for now, I'll leave you with just one. This one happens to be one of my favorites from the evening. It was taken while standing outside of my sunroof while my husband was starting to drive down the road. Not the safest of situations but, let's be honest....anything for a good shot ;)
