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.
Sophia | Senior Portraits
Quiet, reserved, and thoughtful is how I would describe my sister, Sophia. She’s pretty laid back, can be found tucked in a corner with a book, listening to indie rock, or expressing herself creatively through one of her artistic endeavors. Her photos seem match this vibe: peaceful, quiet beauty amongst the flowers, the old dilapidated buildings, and the sunlight filtering through the amber autumn leaves.

Sean + Bridgette | Port Oneida Sunset Engagement
It is always a true joy to spend golden hour in the serene landscapes of Port Oneida, but it was made even sweeter this evening when we were joined by Sean and Bridgette. Sean and Bridgette’s engagement portraits felt straight out of a movie. They meandered through fields of the daintiest wildflowers, sunshine peeking in and out of the clouds while we photographed their sweet interactions—playful and giggling.

They meandered through fields of the daintiest wildflowers, sunshine peeking in and out of the clouds while we photographed their sweet interactions—playful and giggling. As the sun sank lower in the hazy sky, the landscape was bathed in golden mid-summer light. Sean and Bridgette walked slowly through the fields, hand in hand, admiring the views and dreaming of the rest of their lives together. It was such a beautiful glimpse into their love story as we witnessed the way these two looked at, talked to, and loved one another. We feel so honored to capture these precious moments.
Brady + Alexa | Romantic Traverse City Engagement
Photographing these two and their love together felt straight out of a movie. With the sun flare and slow motion, passionate kisses, this engagement session had our romantic hearts a-fluttering. It was a joy to capture this small part in Brady and Alexa’s love story.
I (Sarah) went to school with Alexa growing up so I was absolutely overjoyed to see her name pop up in our inbox inquiring about engagement photos. We spent golden hour wandering around the most beautiful areas in Brown Bridge Quiet Area. Photographing these two and their love together felt straight out of a movie.

Adam + Sarah Engagement | Brown Bridge Quiet Area
We enjoyed a lovely golden evening at Brown Bridge Quiet Area with Adam and Sarah as we got to know them and their sweet story:
We enjoyed a lovely golden evening at Brown Bridge Quiet Area with Adam and Sarah as we got to know them and their sweet story:
When Sarah moved to Michigan 8 years ago, she met her best friend Ashley through work. As best friends do, Ashley tried to set Sarah up with a few people in the area but no one was quite the right fit for her. The two of them joked about Sarah potentially dating Ashley’s brother, Adam (maybe you can see where this is going).
Over time, Sarah and Adam eventually became friends and they found a natural spark, comfort and ease in being together. To Ashley’s great joy, her best friend and brother finally gave the dating relationship a chance. And the rest is history!
Alex + Katherine | Glen Haven | Engagement
Alex and Katherine, both elementary school teachers, loved taking every opportunity to escape away to Michigan during their summer breaks. Specifically camping at Sleeping Bear Dunes was a special tradition for them every summer. Alex and Katherine describe themselves as ‘nature freaks’ and wanted to incorporate the outdoors in as many of their photos as possible—both for their engagement and their wedding! While their wedding was set at a beautiful vineyard venue in Suttons Bay, taking the trip out to the Sleeping Bear Dunes area for their engagement session was a perfect way to tie in their love for the area.

We got the chance to know them over a video call prior to their session and wedding where we immediately hit it off. We knew that being a part of their days would feel natural and exciting and couldn’t wait to document the two of them being adventurous and hilarious. We decided on an early spring day for their engagement session and Glen Haven proved to be a versatile location—with a little bit of woodsy, beach, and dunes to finish off the night. We spent the whole evening grinning from ear to ear just being in Alex and Katherine’s presence.
We are so happy for these two and loved being a part of their story!
