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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
Engagement sessions are meant to tell a little portion of your story. Whenever couples have a location in mind that is meaningful to them I absolutely love it! We started David and Morgan’s engagement session at the lakeside property David’s parents will be building a home on this year. I love the idea that years from […]
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 […]
Expecting mamas might be my new favorite subject matter. I mean can we just talk about how stunning Emily is? If you didn’t know what people mean when they say, “she’s glowing,” please see below. I got to spend the most beautiful evening chatting with Emily and Mike about their soon-to-be baby girl! We even […]
My most embarrassing moment as a photographer happened just before Courtney and Dan’s Stoney Creek engagement session. Prior to their shoot Courtney had texted me telling me they were running a little bit late. I told her it wasn’t a problem, and that I would be in the black SUV in the back of the […]
If you’ve been following along for a while on here, you already know I’m a huge fan of bringing fur babies to engagement sessions and Wallace totally stole the show!! At the end of Taylor and Blake’s Clarkston engagement session, I pulled out my phone to snap a quick photo to post on my Instagram […]
Follow along for more of our work, travels, and of course, Atlas our bengal cat.
