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.

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.
Ben + Samantha | Intimate Cottage Wedding
Northern Michigan is where Ben and Sam said ‘I love you’ for the first time. It holds a special place in their hearts so they didn’t skip a beat when it came to planning their wedding up North. It was an honor to document their people, their love, and their celebration on such a special day.
Northern Michigan is where Ben and Sam said ‘I love you’ for the first time. It holds a special place in their hearts so they didn’t skip a beat when it came to planning their wedding up North. They said their vows surrounded by twenty of their closest friends and family atop a hill overlooking Suttons Bay. From there, we joined the party at Sam’s parents’ cottage in Northport for an intimate gathering. They celebrated over dinner served by a local chef, toasted with glasses of red and white, and danced to a local musician on the patio while the sun dipped lazily toward the horizon. We feel so honored to know Ben and Sam and to have documented their people, their love, and their celebration on such a special day.

Jordan + Paige | Ciccone Vineyard Wedding
Set at Ciccone Vineyard, rows and rows of vines stretched on against the stunning Lake Michigan view. Jordan and Paige’s romantic and colorful details were vibrant against the cool green of the vineyard all around. In the midst of the most beautiful whimsical floral arbor, Jordan eagerly awaited his ethereal bride Paige as she made her way down the aisle. It is no exaggeration to say that Paige absolutely took our breath away.
From the very beginning, it was clear that Paige and I were kindred spirits. With our mutual love for all things whimsical, romantic, and floral, we knew it would be a good fit when they reached out for us to photograph their wedding. Besides chatting and sharing pretty wedding details and ideas prior to their day, we also met up with Jordan and Paige for the epitome of a dream engagement session at Port Oneida. After that evening, we knew their wedding day would be even dreamier. A little under a year later, we were excitedly making our drive out to Suttons Bay for Jordan and Paige’s wedding.

It is no exaggeration to say that Paige absolutely took our breath away.
“We always said that our wedding won't only be a celebration of our love, but a celebration of all the hard work that has gone into our relationship-especially during those long distance days”
And a celebration it was! Jordan and Paige’s relationship is one to behold. From emotional vows to Jordan always finding a way to make Paige giggle, these two compliment and make each other better. They handled every curve ball that came flying their way (ahem pizza for dinner was not the original plan) with humor and grace. In the end, they really embraced the idea of ‘celebrating’ their love and relationship regardless of what may happen. Every single one of their guests also held that same sentiment, so you can imagine the fun party that lasted into the night.
Congratulations Jordan and Paige. It was a true honor to capture you two from your engagement photos to your wedding day! We feel like we have made forever friends of you both and look forward to the next time we can all catch up.

Mark + Lindsay | Traverse City Wedding | The Peninsula Room
When Mark and Lindsay initially reached out and shared their love story with us, I couldn’t help but audibly gasp. It felt straight out of a movie! We really truly love Mark and Lindsay and their children. Every time we have had an opportunity to photograph them has been an absolute joy. We are so happy that they found each other and are so honored that they chose us to document this piece of their story.
When Mark and Lindsay initially reached out and shared their love story with us, I couldn’t help but audibly gasp. It felt straight out of a movie! Growing up in the same small town, working at his family’s local grocery store together and then reuniting years and years later in that same small town where Mark finally asked Lindsay out on a date. And from there, as you can see, the rest is history.
The day of their wedding was a stark difference compared to their winter engagement session earlier in the year. September 2nd brought blue skies and sunshine—a lovely day for a wedding. Instead of a classic bridal party, Lindsay’s children stood with them and her two boys even walked her down the aisle. Mark and Lindsay surprised all of their guests with a special performance by NUCLASSICA—playing during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and then really stepping it up during the reception! The room was electric and everyone couldn’t wait to get out on the dance floor. Finally, Mark and Lindsay snuck away to watch the sunset on the beach across the road before coming back to a sparkler ‘re-entrance’ into their reception celebration.
We really truly love Mark and Lindsay and their children. Every time we have had an opportunity to photograph them has been an absolute joy. We are so happy that they found each other and are so honored that they chose us to document this piece of their story. Congratulations Mark + Lindsay. Your love for each other is radiant!

Mitch + Amber | Glen Arbor Wedding
Mitch and Amber met and fell in love with the beauty of Northern Michigan. So it was an obvious choice for them to share this special place with all of their guests on their wedding day. The Homestead Resort based in Glen Arbor was the perfect setting for their vows and we were even able to sneak off to the beach for photos with a Lake Michigan backdrop.

As we got to know Mitch and Amber leading up to their day, we found out they had a son around the same age as our daughter! Their son was such a fun addition to their wedding day and the cutest little dancer during the reception. It was a joy to be a part of Mitch and Amber’s beautiful intimate Michigan wedding and tell the story of their day through photographs.
Cheers to their sweet little family & their Northern Michigan love story!
