Gabriella and Matthew are seriously the sweetest (and the cutest). We had some crazy rain here in Northern Michigan the weekend that they scheduled their engagement session, but they wanted to carry on and just roll with it. And honestly, what’s more fun than playing in the rain sometimes? They absolutely rocked their rainy fall […]
For anyone who’s not familiar with fall in Northern Michigan, there’s really nothing quite like it. I got to hang out with Morgan & Tyler a few weeks ago for their gorgeous Michigan M22 fall engagement session. We’d actually originally planned to meet at the beach because the trail leading up to the beach is […]
Katie & John got married this fall here in Northern Michigan, and we got a gorgeous, sunny (albeit slightly chilly), very perfect day for their Crooked Creek Ranch wedding. These two are the absolute sweetest, and to make everything better they brought along their two adorable pups to share their wedding day with them 😍. […]
Amanda & Jasper got married in the sweetest, intimate Northern Michigan wedding with their closest friends and family members. Going into their wedding weekend, the forecast pretty much showed a 100% chance of rain all day, and it definitely looked like Michigan was going to actually follow through this time. Jasper and Mandy were such […]
Mackenzie and Grant got married in August in the most gorgeous Michigan summer backyard wedding. Their entire day was a complete 180 from what they had originally planned, but through all the craziness and re-planning, these two took everything in stride and their day was absolutely breathtaking! I mean really…how stunning of a bride was Mackenzie? […]
Jolie & Griffin got married in August in the most adorable and intimate, backyard, Grand Traverse Bay wedding. I’m still so obsessed with all of the gorgeous details that they put together for this stunning day. So many amazing vendors came together to make this day absolutely amazing for this sweet couple. Of course, typical […]
Emily and Collin were married on the first weekend of August in a gorgeous summer backyard wedding, and I’m still a little teary-eyed over how gorgeous and emotional their wedding day was. I don’t think anything about their wedding day was what they had originally imagined. They were originally supposed to get married here in […]
Isabelle & Nick got married in the most gorgeous, intimate Northern Michigan elopement on Lake Michigan. The entire week leading up to their elopement day showed storms on the forecast. Instead, Michigan came through and we got the most amazing, sunny day for these two cuties to tie the knot! Also, Isabelle’s grandma made (yes, […]
Chelsea & Kevin got married at St. Kenneth’s Church this month! These two are seriously the sweetest couple you’ll ever meet and they’ve been so amazing during everything that’s been going on in this crazy 2020. When all of the shutdowns started to happen, we had a video call about possible back up plans. They […]
I got to kick off my 4th of July weekend with Katie & John’s gorgeous Peterson Beach Sleeping Bear Dunes engagement session and gosh was it beautiful. I’d actually never been out to Peterson Beach Recreation Area, but I love exploring new places with my sweet couples. And I’m especially always down to explore the […]
