I shot the McBrian family at Mill Race in Northville. These two kids are so cute and so full of energy. 2-year-olds are though, pretty much anything you ask them to do they make it a point NOT to do. Considering I actually have a 2 year old I have developed an abundance of patience. I think we captured some great stuff, I was such a pretty august day.

In one of Meghan’s emails before her wedding she told me that her wedding was going to be the best wedding ever! That kind of got me thinking…I don’t think I have a “best wedding ever.” Our favorite weddings are the ones that at the end of the night we look at each other and say “WOW, what a blast–I can’t believe this is my JOB” : )
With Mark & Meghan’s we thought that three-fold! Theirs was the second wedding we shot that weekend and the second ones are always a little tough to get thru. To be honest we are tired and sore and kind of want to go home. With Mark & Meghan the time seemed to FLY by! Simply put, Mark, Meghan, their friends and family are just nice people. I felt like Meghan treated us like an honored guest instead of hired help ; )
Their wedding was held at Saint Damian Catholic Church in Westland and their reception was held at Woodlands of Van Buron. I think it’s their reception that made the time go by so quickly. The dance floor was packed all night long, led my Meghan’s parents. Mark & Meghan moved to Texas after their wedding and I’m so sad to see them go. They are my second clients this year who had to move out of state to find teaching jobs. Michigan is really losing out.

Jen and Mike were married at Calvary Baptist Church in Canton. The couple decided to see each other and take all the pictures beforehand. This makes everything so easy and relaxed for the rest of the day. Jen was probably the most relaxed bride we have ever shot, and I think it’s because they were not rushing around to do things between the ceremony and reception. Mike and Jen held their reception at Plymouth Manor in Downtown Plymouth.

Michael and Kelliann held their wedding at the beautiful Wyndgate Country Club The had an outdoor ceremony and then held their cocktail hour and reception in the main clubhouse. I’n not sure if Kelliann used a coordinator, but if not she is really talented. Everything was beautiful, and she really tied in her colors and her monogram into every detail. The even had special bar drinks that matched their colors (green and brown). During cocktail hour Jayson and I had a great bridal session with them Michael and Kelliann were up for any suggestion, witch makes for great pictures! Congratulations!

I shot Nick and Stephanies wedding last fall, and that day their son Mason reminded me so much of my own son. Cute, sweet, charming and ALL BOY! I was really excited when Stephanie emailed me about family photos. We met at Stony Creek Metropark late in the afternoon and walked around. It was a great time and Mason was perfect, he was so much fun to photograph! I really love these family pics!

We had such an easy time shooting Nichole and Bobby’s wedding. They are both so relaxed and easy going and their friends and family are so warm and inviting. Nichole and Bobby were married in Novi and their reception was held at Crystal Gardens in Howell. As an in between location we were able to stop at Bobby’s parents who’s home backs up to Kensington Metro Park. How lucky—we didn’t have to share with anybody!

When my initial consultation meeting with Dawn lasted over 2 hours I knew that Dawn would be so much fun to shoot on her wedding day and we would have a great time. She is so down to earth and is such a warm and funny person. And I was also really looking forward to meeting Jason! Jason and Dawn have such a great love story, they knew each other is grade school and then went their separate ways until one day he walked into the Sprint store where Dawn worked. Jason had been the popular athlete and Dawn told me she was the shy quite girl. Well, I can certainly attest to that Dawn is no longer shy and quite! Congrats guys, and be sure to keep in touch.

Marc’s mom received a gift certificate form her niece for her baby shower last year. Mary waited until the perfect time to have Marc’s portraits taken. He was able to sit up but not yet crawl away, this makes it so easy to get wonderful timeless portraits. Portrait gift certificates are a GREAT thing to get for mom’s-to-be or even mom’s who already are. It’s really a gift that will be treasured forever.

I’m always searching for fun and interesting places to shoot toddlers. They are my hardest client so I like to get them involved in something that they are going to have fun doing and then try and get some great natural cadids. Dylan, who is usually full of smiles, was not in a “pictures taking” mood today. Going to the sprinkler park in Redford certainly lightened his mood.

I was able to shoot the baptism of Korinne in June, who was a newborn I shot in April. With little ones I love being able to document how much they grow in just a few short months. Korinne changed so much in just 2 months, she looked like a totally different baby. Still cute as ever but you can really see her features developing. Korinne was baptized at Greenfield Peace Lutheran Church.
