One free from blogging, apparently….
There’s no way I can think about getting caught up, so I’m just going to highlight a few wonderful weddings here. They were all wonderful in their own unique way, of course.
So let’s get started. But I’ll probably jump around and have to make this a few installments!
Shortly after Kenny & Becky’s wedding (the day after, actually) was Kristin & Joe’s spectacular wedding in Detroit. I’ve known Kristin since she was 18 months old, and was her babysitter/big sister for a long time. I’ve seen her through kindergarten, graduations, and fortunately, not a lot of heartbreak. Kristin met Joe in college, and we all knew right away he was a great guy…and a great guy for her.
Shooting her wedding was an honor, and it was hard for this “momma” to keep a dry eye. Set at the historic Belle Isle Conservatory, the wedding was not complete without the release of live butterflies and a lot of laughter.
Our bridal party photos took us all around downtown Detroit, to some of Kristin & Joe’s favorite spots. You can’t beat a great skyline & a fun wedding party.
Their fabulous reception was held at Greektown Casino, where we all danced the night away, then met for brunch in the morning…a lot of sleepy faces at that one, mine included!

Next on the agenda were Liz & Sean, whom I met when I photographed her sister’s wedding last fall. Though the wedding sites were the same, these sisters have their own unique style & interests. After their wedding mass, we piled up the wedding party to head into downtown Grand Rapids, where a major traffic jam held us up and allowed for a quick detour to the studio, where Liz rocked out some seriously amazing portraits.
After hitting the studio, we headed downtown to the Grand Rapids Art Museum, and wandered around town for some fun shooting.
These two are so passionately in love, it was difficult to get a bad shot. My favorite of the day had to be their first dance. You don’t have to look hard to find the love.

With just two weeks to gear up for the next wedding, my tear ducts had just enough of a break to prepare for my good friend Meredith’s golf course wedding. Set at the beautiful Blythefield Hills Country Club, this day full of friends, laughter, and lots of gorgeous weather made for a day perfect for celebrating the marriage of Meredith to Chad. I now call them Cheredith.
Now I know you’re thinking “of course she loves this wedding – look at all that pink”! True, I loved the pink, but what I loved was seeing one of my dear friends so happy to be marrying her best friend.
And with a golfcourse as my canvas, I strapped a chair to the back of the golf cart, threw it in the rough, and had fun with my Meredith’s photos.
What girl doesn’t love a chair in a field?

Ok, mini-break. Back to blogging soon….
