What a gorgeous day for a wedding! This was an amazing event with so many of their friends and family, thanks for including us – we had so much fun with you guys! It was really hard to choose…so of course – there are a gazillion! Amazing flowers and reception details by Modern Day Floral~ do you see the handle of the bouquet? That is AMAZING!!! I love the last shots of Jess with her grandpa – he LOVED to dance! At one point – Jess’s mom wanted a few more family shots during the dancing…and when I was trying to snag grandpa – he told me he couldn’t – he was dancing!! Love it! It was so fun to see Nathan & Ashleigh again at their wedding too!

Oh yes, I said published!! This is so exciting ~ because really in the past two insane years, my business has taken off, I have hardly had a minute to *think* let alone – sort through gazillions of amazing wedding images to submit for publishing. But it is so fun to see your work in a magazine. It’s a new publication just about Michigan Photographers! The one thing I know is that this mag will always have amazing photos…It’s called ” In Frame” , they have a website, where you can have a free copy mailed to you, and it’s being passed out at many bridal events & shows throughout the state. They featured 38 of michigan’s top photographers…glad to be one! They featured a fabulous wedding I shot of Keith & Amanda and shared their adorable story! They also featured a ttd photo of Beth in the snow….that was a fun *freezing* shoot, big props to Beth on that one! And also a few details of a cake, purse, and shoe shots on the middle and bottom of the last page…the copies are below!

These two were *oh*so*tiny when I first met them…now at 6 months…they’re a whole new ball of wax!! They have personality – and their own opinions of wanting their picture taken!! Olivia thought this was fabulous idea Graham ~in true boy fashion~ thought this was ridiculous and would much rather play with his dad…. If I only had video of mom & dad trying to entertain them….now that would be funny! I give major props to parents of multiples…you know their marriage has to be good – the amount of communication that has to take place with two babies…is huge! Now I’m not saying that it’s always *good* communication…but at least it’s still there!
**love this stroller – borrowed it from a friend- and it worked perfect for these two. enjoy!

Meet Johanna ~ sexy hot mamma ~ her hubby Jay and their two yr old son….who’s newborn pic is on my website! He has grown so much! I met them when they booked me 2yrs ago, for their last belly & baby. They had also booked me to photograph their son’s birth as well- but it ended up landing in the middle of a wedding day I had booked So my fabulous (life-saving) photog friend Marybeth went for me! So, I was super excited to hear from them again and get a second chance at that part! Low & behold I actually made it to the birth the second time around…but that’s for another post. Enjoy these photos that were taken at the studio…and yes, that’s my yummy bench – I got for a steal!

They are both chemists – smart cookies – that’s not at all intimidating!?!

I first met Stephanie and her mom over 2yrs ago for her consult—what did that tell me??? This girl is a planner! Soon after booking I realized because they lived in South Carolina – and both still going to school – there would be no engagement session. Bummer – I really love that time to get to know a bride and groom, but we knew each other quite well by the end of the day – Stephanie LOVES umbrella’s!!! No – it wasn’t raining at all…she just wanted them in her photos – I love them too!

Stephanie and Travis were surrounded by an amazing group of family & friends! Stephanie warned me about her sister….that she would keep me on my toes…I LOVED her! She was spunky, witty, and just as beautiful as her sister. They truly have a special bond, that was very evident, and confirmed by her speech at the reception…wish I had video! Stephanie & Travis opted to have a “first look” before the ceremony – which I love, it’s just a special moment that’s just them (and me from a distance!) **except the bridesmaids, they were spying on this one! They said they were up for anything – and totally trusted me – I love that! We had so much fun finding great colorful spots and even ventured to the roof! Stephanie had both her mom and her dad walk her down the aisle ~ it was precious. I was soooo very impressed with Stephanie’s mom- she practically ran the dessert station and enjoyed herself dancing – that’s a super mom! Travis & Stephanie ~ congrats! Tim & I enjoyed photographing your amazing day!
