Romantic Micro Wedding at St. Paul's Lutheran Church | Abby + Felipe

. . . There was something so intimate and romantic about Abby & Felipe’s micro (or tiny) wedding day and the energy, to me, felt like a wedding my grandparents probably experienced after the depression; not a lot of fanfare, with just a simple, but beautiful commitment ceremony. Abby’s gorgeous lace dress and faux fur shawl along with the pops of red flowers in her bouquet, even felt vintage-inspired to me! I wanted to capture that feeling through my photography, and I made sure to focus on all the simple, candid moments that happened and to capture romantic portraits of the bride & groom afterwards! . . .

Relaxed Glam Wedding at the Royal Oak Music Theatre | Chelsey & Joe

I am so excited to share some of my absolute favorite images from my first wedding of 2020! Chelsey and Joe’s wedding day was such a special day that was filled with countless moments that turned from hilarious to absolutely touching and tearful. Chelsey prepared to meet her groom, Joe, at her parents home and had a special request for photos with her adorable pug, Phoebe, and she also wanted to make sure I got a few photos of her bridal details, especially her Louboutin shoes which she purchased in New York! Those red soled shoes (and all her other details for that matter!) gave me all the heart eyes. . .

Elegant, Laid-Back Wedding at The Colony Club, Detroit, MI: Molly + Chris

I received one of the best compliments after 10 hours of capturing Molly & Chris' amazing wedding day. Their wedding was held at the iconic Colony Club and at the majestic Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Detroit, MI. At the end of the night, while dancing was well underway, I walked up to Molly and gave her a big hug goodbye and said one last congratulations to her on her marriage to Chris! Molly smiled and because the music was so loud she leaned in closer to me as she said, "We had so much fun with you today! It felt like you were just our good friends here celebrating all day while taking the photos." After hearing those words, the soreness and longness of the day just melted away from my body. Molly's words made all of my hard work throughout the day of looking for the best locations, the best light, anticipating moments, and staying on schedule so worth it! . . .
