With a huge chunk of my weddings for this year being rescheduled, I started looking back on some of my favorite engagements (that should have been 2020 weddings). Emilie and Steven’s was one of the absolute best! We hopped around Detroit from the DIA to the streets downtown. When I was posting behind-the-scenes on Instagram […]
Rebecca is one of those girls that you feel like you’ve known forever when you get to sit down and chat for the first time. By sit down and chat I mean we met up at my favorite wine bar, talked about how Kirk proposed, the dreams she had for her wedding, and of course […]
Is it so weird I wish I could have third-wheeled when Andrew proposed to Kayla?! Right before they were about to head to Disney for vacation, Kayla came home to a single pink rose on their porch and a path of rose petals leading out to their backyard. Outside, Andrew was in their gazebo playing […]
Two words: POWER PONY. We started Shreea and Yuvi’s engagement session on Belle Isle at the James Scott Memorial Fountain – which I’ve learned is not always on, but we got lucky Monday night haha! We made a pitstop at the casino before heading back into downtown. Shreea changed into a long black evening gown, […]
Five minutes into meeting Chelsea I felt like we were girlfriends from college. Not only is she the easiest human to get along with – I posted some preview images on Instagram the night of hers and Nick’s Edsel and Eleanor Ford House engagement and I received (no joke) 20 messages of people that knew […]
I was like a kid in a candy store when the day finally came for Celeste and Tom’s downtown Detroit engagement shoot! Also, this says a lot because I have a serious problem with loving everything sweet, but that’s besides the point haha! I’m not kidding guys I felt like I’ve been loving on Celeste […]
Holly and Tommy spent the evening dancing seven stories up, on the rooftop of the historic Detroit Athletic Club. They both wore matching Shinola watches, a nod to their high class fashion sense and the company that was founded in Detroit. Holly’s pink gown flowed in the breeze and perfectly complimented the sunset views of […]
Emily and Ryan hold a special place in my heart; not only are they my clients, but Sean and I are actually Ryan’s clients! (He’s our project manager over at the farm.) I’ve had so much fun getting to know the different sides of these two. From them getting dolled up for their engagement session, […]
When Nikki told me her and Adam wanted to do their engagement photos in a nature/outdoorsy setting I know the Edsel and Eleanore Ford House would be the perfect fit! Nikki’s baby blue dress and nude heels matched the May blooms perfectly. We won’t leave Adam out; see if you can find a photo of […]
After chatting over drinks in downtown Royal Oak and learning that Lauren works in fashion, you better bet I was soooo pumped to see what she had planned for hers and Todd’s engagement photos. I’m not joking her navy dress was such a stunner I would be wearing that baby around the house doing twirls […]
