Engagement sessions with me are kind of evolving into hikes or walks - exploring new spaces and lighting.  Adventuring with couples for a couple hours.  Taking time to wander and taking in this f-ing magical Northern Michigan landscape.  Reflecting on it now, it really is a great fit for our brand.  I'm looking for people who are open to this; Morgan and Nathan were perfect.  We laughed, we hiked up dunes, explored the woods looking for glowy strands of light.  Their wedding in August is going to be a beauty - I can't wait.

We have had some ridiculously unusual weather here in Northern Michigan.  50+ degrees in February is bonkers.  But a definite upside to all of this sunshine is the glowing light and bright snow during engagement sessions!  Kathy and Simon wanted an outdoorsy session that would include their pups - love it.  I had a blast and we can't wait for their Winter wedding next year!

I think photos of Kristy and Matt together would be bright and happy no matter what the weather, but last week we really lucked out with a warm sunny day... and in case you didn't notice... it's November.  Not typically a notorious month for sunshine in Michigan.  I'm so filled with happiness for these two and can't wait to photograph their wedding next year!  Thanks for making my job so fun you guys :)

These cuties are getting married in Detroit in just a couple weeks!!  EEK!  But they came to Traverse City to catch the fall colors before they're gone.  I think it was a success ;)  I'm very excited to be seeing these two again soon, but for now enjoy these beautiful reds, yellows, and oranges.
