JACOB AND BRITTANY CRYSTAL MOUNTAIN WEDDING

'Happiest by your side'

It was such a wonderful joy to witness, celebrate, and photograph Jacob and Brittany's gorgeous May wedding at Crystal Mountain.

We could not have asked for a more gorgeous day or a more lovely couple. These two radiated love and happiness the entire day.

Jacob and Brittany took the morning to get ready surrounded by their closest friends and family. It was beautiful to see the kind of love and support they were showered with the whole day.  From the excited giggles between Brittany and her bridesmaids to the jokes and encouragement shared between the groomsmen and Jacob--we just love how deeply involved every one of their friends were during the day. Seriously though, how sweet is it to see every bridesmaid in on helping Brittany into her dress?

From the beginning, it was evident that above all, these two shared a very special love. Everyone could see it and everyone celebrated it too. Therefore, it was only natural that we felt it that day too and what a joy it was to take part in celebrating with them.

Everyone held their breath as the stunning bride Brittany made her way down the aisle toward Jacob.  You can clearly see the excitement and joy on both Jacob and Brittany's faces during this moment leading up to their vows. We just adore his reaction to seeing her for the first time that day. During their whole ceremony, a wide range of emotion and happy tears was evident on the face of their parents, grandparents, and dearest friends. Jacob and Brittany were practically glowing as they joined hands and were pronounced husband and wife.  Immediately after that, they stole away to a secluded spot to soak in the feeling of being newly married. They later joined their party at the reception to spend the night dancing away in celebration.  

It may have taken us a while to get these photos up on the blog, but we are so excited to finally be sharing them with you. 

Congratulations to Mr and Mrs Chappell!

2019 Review

Miles and Sarah Photography

Hello friends & Happy New Year!

2019 was a big year for us, both personally and professionally. In January, we were engaged and began planning our wedding for the end of the year. In the midst of this, we photographed ten beautiful couples and their weddings over the duration of the summer, all as associate photographers for Dan and Melissa--Sarah's parents. We married on a gorgeous day in early October and spent our honeymoon in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. When we returned, we wrapped up the 2019 wedding season, thus also ending our time as associate photographers and beginning the journey of our own photography business, as Miles and Sarah Photography!

Building this website has been and continues to be a fun work in progress. We are dedicated to using it to share not only our own stories, but the stories of all the couples we are blessed to capture and the vendor friendships that will continue to flourish and grow in the Northern Michigan community. We couldn't imagine calling anywhere else home or living any other dream than the one we are living. 2020 couples, we are so ready for you!

All that said, what better way to wrap up the year and start the new one than with a blogpost of all our favorite behind-the-scenes moments from our 2019 wedding season? So without further ado, enjoy these silly, ridiculous, real moments that happen on the OTHER side of lens.

Thanks for an awesome wedding season!
