Daniel + Julia | Northern Michigan Wedding

Like many of our Spring weddings last year, it rained the morning of Daniel and Julia’s wedding day. But instead of disappointment, Daniel and Julia chose joy in the weather. In a romantic movie-like twist, they met for their private vows in the botanic garden in the middle of the pouring rain.

Like many of our Spring weddings last year, it rained the morning of Daniel and Julia’s wedding day. But instead of disappointment, Daniel and Julia chose joy in the weather. In a romantic movie-like twist, they met for their private vows in the botanic garden in the middle of the pouring rain.

At the lavender farm they made a last-minute rain call— deciding to go for it with an outdoor ceremony. Lo and behold, the rain held off and later the clouds parted for full and glorious sunshine for the rest of the evening.

Congratulations Daniel and Julia—we loved celebrating you two and your joy.

Jane + Ben | Romantic Traverse City Wedding

Their wedding day was an overflow of all these good things. Watching the two of them together and everyone surrounding them, it was clearer than ever that God brought them together and it was always meant to be, Jane and Ben.

I remember when Jane first told me about Ben.

Soon after, I had her over for coffee and we talked about the first time they met. Her eyes lit up as she described their very first date.

Later on, we had the two of them over and talked for hours over homemade pizza and wine. We bonded over our mutual love of coffee, people, and Jesus. Late into the night, as we sat around the dining table, they shared their story with us once again.

Luke + Katherine | Glen Haven Engagement

Luke and Katherine have a love that is so radiant it’s a wonder to behold.

Our first time meeting face to face as at their engagement session in Glen Haven. Here we got to witness first hand how these two loved each other—with depth, with honesty, and with romantic intensity.

Our first time meeting face to face as at their engagement session in Glen Haven. Here we got to witness first hand how these two loved each other—with depth, with honesty, and with romantic intensity.

We spent the evening laughing hard, climbing the dunes, and photographing the insane chemistry between the two of them.

As the sun set them aglow in a deep crimson, Luke and Katherine held each other close and drank it all in: the sunset, the peaceful quiet of the evening, and the countdown until their wedding day.

Castle Farms Wedding | Connor and Christine

There the guests gathered in the shade of the courtyard in anticipation as Connor and Christine’s son toddled his way excitedly down the aisle to enthusiastic applause from everyone in the crowd. There, held in his dad’s arms, they watched together as the beautiful Christine was walked down the aisle by her own emotional father.

Connor and Christine’s wedding day was filled with raw emotions—from the first look, to the ceremony, to the speeches, and dances.

Set on what was probably the hottest day of the month, Connor and Christine stayed cool amidst the stone walls of Castle Farms to celebrate.

As the sun painted the tree tops with it’s golden light, Connor and Christine took the party inside the Castle with their guests. Here they dined, and danced, and laughed, and celebrated their love amongst their friends and family late into the night.
