Jessica and James beautiful August wedding with a Catholic ceremony. Such a fun day. It was killer hot and we were all so thankful for the A/C in the flat and we were able to stay inside and take pictures in the cool air… but also WAY COOL architecture. So fun having this stunning Three Oaks Michigan venue so close to home.

This sunrise Shenandoah National Park gave us was so moody. It gave us so many colors and versions of itself the first half of our session before the sun slipped behind the morning clouds.
This hike ended up being a little longer than we originally thought, but I loved hitting the trail with Shelby + Daniel in formal wear. And that waterfall. Heart eyes!
Sweet Bella. This beautiful high school senior was once my neighbor and I BABYSAT HER. And now she’s graduating high school. Does that make me old? The kids I babysat are graduating????
Back in 2009 I was in the beginning days of my photography journey. I took a film photography class. I carried my dad’s old 35mm film camera with me everywhere. I was at the park with Bella and I snapped a darling photo of her sitting in a playground tube. (I have the negative still. I should reprint and share!).
And this summer I got to take her senior pictures for her 13 years later. I love when life comes full circle like this. These moments are beautiful and I am trying not to take them for granted.

This was my first wedding at the new Watermark Solarium venue. It was so beautiful. I love photographing at new places. It was 90 something degrees out on Erika and Elijah’s wedding day and humid as h*ll. The bridal suite ended up being our main spot for photos to try to keep cool on the day. And I wasn’t complaining about all that gorgeous natural light in there.

Here's the highlights of Abby and Declan's wedding! What a beautiful day. This one felt a little extra special to me. Abby is my cousin! Also, my late father was a photographer way back in the day and photographed my Aunt's wedding (Abby's mom). I felt my dad's energies surrounding me throughout the day. It was emotional. It very sweet. Additionally the wedding was in southern Florida at the Big Blue Barn in December. FAR better weather than a December night in Michigan. :)
Dana + Dillon were one of those super fun, energetic couples who were ready to celebrate with their loved ones. Scroll through and see all the joyful tears, belly laughs and MOSQUITOS that made this wedding so memorable. This was my first time shooting at Inisfree Farms. The venue is a dream. If you’re looking for that rustic yet modern barns for you wedding reception, this is the one!
Remember that weekend back in November that was like 70 degrees? Yeah, we lucked out on this sunny warm day. Looking forward to their wedding day this summer at the new Watermark Solarium. I did Erika’s sister’s wedding last summer (haven’t blogged it yet, way behind on my blogging). And now I get to do Erika’s and her fiancé, Elijah’s wedding!
