Summer in Northern Michigan is absolutely spectacular. It's the *perfect* temperature, low humidity (I mean, for the most part!) with endless beaches and water, pine forests, and much to see and do. So summer in Michigan is the perfect place for a wedding. But, as much as you try and plan out every detail of the wedding day, you also have to plan for rain. And that's what Rae and Steve had to contend with. Rain. And LOTS of...

Bailey and Ty's wedding on Drummond Island this past summer was like a wonderful family party. Partly because they have ties to Drummond Island so it was like seeing all the family members come back home for a celebration. And partly because their families and wedding party were SO FUN! The couple got ready at an intimate little church on the island (and if you've ever been to Drummond Island, it's an amazing spot with beautiful scenery and lots of outdoor adventures...and not a whole lot of population, so everything has that small town charm to it that only added...
You guys know how much I love our albums. I did a whole other blog post on why you SHOULD choose an album for your wedding (some packages include one and you can always add on an album - or two - to any package, at any time). You can check that blog post out HERE. It goes into much more detail about the albums themselves and what makes them so special. If you are just getting familiar with the option of including a custom wedding album...
When Brittany was in the stages of planning for her wedding, she and Nick decided on the gorgeous destination of Breckenridge, Colorado to tie the knot. She had found an image of this incredible mountain overlook and knew that was what she she wanted. However, this couple lives in beautiful Northern Michigan and still wanted their engagement session at "home". Initially Brittany contacted me just...
Jocelyn and Tanner. One of the most perfect couples ever. I first met this couple when I photographed her twin sister's wedding (which was SO perfect and amazing in itself!) I love Jocelyn's family so I absolutely jumped for joy that I would be working with them again! We had chatted about doing this couple's engagement session on Mackinac Island and...
Lindsey and Connor's wedding day was a glorious Northern Michigan summer day. They selected Mission Point Resort and the AMAZING Mackinac Island for their love story celebration and it was perfect in every way! From the nautical decor, to the happy tears from family and friends, to the slab of fudge instead...
If I asked you to close your eyes and picture a gorgeous bride, beaming with happiness, on a beautiful summer day, I'm pretty sure you would be picturing Gina. She was the picture perfect bride, and along with her now husband, made for an incredible wedding day! Their wedding, held on a windy and warm summer day in beautiful Grand Rapids, Michigan, was...
Kendall and Chase are absolutely a couple after my own heart. They love adventure (they've traveled all over the world together...even getting engaged in Paris!) and trying new things so when Kendall said they've never visited Traverse City, I knew...
Autumn and Jeff. I adore this couple! They are both archeologists (I mean, how amazing is that?!) and I love the details from that they incorporated into their wedding. It was a rainy, early summer day in the Upper Peninsula. But that didn't matter...we were loaded up with our umbrellas and this couple was so in love, I don't think they even noticed the rain! After the bride finished getting ready...
Kristyn and Jack are rockstars. They are one of the funnest couples we've had the honor to photograph (seriously, my husband keeps talking about how much Kristyn made him laugh during the course of the wedding day...she's just awesome like that!) and every detail of their wedding day was perfect...
I know I JUST blogged Sarah and Padric's amazing wedding, but because this wedding DEFINITELY deserves another look, check out this amazing feature on Modern Weddings!!
I just recently blogged about a Mackinac Island engagement session we had this past summer and it got me thinking to the amazing weddings we photographed there this summer as well. So obviously I need to share some of Sarah and Padric's gorgeous wedding day!! Their wedding was held at the amazing...
Haley and Sam's wedding day was, for me, a day that could not come soon enough. We photographed this couple's engagement session on a beautiful spring evening just over a year before their wedding and I about cried buckets knowing I had to wait a while till I could get these two in front of my camera again...
Alexandra and Josh's wedding in the Traverse City, MI area was everything you'd dream a wedding should be. It had amazing decor, food, venues (the VENUE, you guys...but I'll get to that in a second). But the icing on the cake was the...
Jessica and James. We decided on Grand Marais for the engagement session and I knew it was going to be amazing because...well, Grand Marais. It's gorgeous there. But the cherry on top was this perfect couple. We had an absolute BLAST shooting. It being still fairly early spring in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan...
