Hello blog readers. I hope you’re having a wonderful holiday season!
I wanted to share with you Keith and Nicki’s amazing wedding. The couple couldn’t choose a better location to get married. It perfectly fits their personalities. I’m talking about Seldom Blues in downtown Detroit, with spectacular view of the Detroit River and Windsor skyline. This place is a wedding photographer’s dream with great lighting and countless cool spots that can be incorporated into shots.
I’m not big on writing and I rather let photography tell a story so I created a short slideshow with highlights of the day. It’s not a small file so give it a few minutes to download once you hit the ‘Play’ button - I promise it’s worth the wait.
Nicki and Keith - Love them! They look fantastic! Can't wait to see the rest when we get back. Thank yo for capturing such a wonderful night! Love, NIcki and Keith
Deidre & Jeff Weber - Great photos Marcin, It was great to see you at Nicki & Keith's wedding. We are sorry we were not able to get together while we were home, time has flown by! We wish you the best in the New year! Take care:)
Marcin - Hey guys,
it was great to see you too :). Give us a call the next time you're in town. Happy New Year!
It’s been a while since we photographed Sosi and Aram’s fabulous wedding. I’m probably the only photographer that provides images first and blogs the wedding later. Shouldn’t it be the other way around?…
Nevertheless, here we are and what a wedding it was! Hmm, how would I describe it in one word? Party! Yes, one huge party that started early in the day, way before the reception What fun! Being surrounded on the dance floor by 400 dancing wedding guests is an experience to be remembered for sure.
Reception was held at Shenandoah Banquet, Golf and conference Center in Bloomfield Hills, MI.
I also wanted to give a shout out to Ryan from Epic Motion who was shooting video. Ryan is a great guy and his work is outstanding so check him out if you are looking for a videographer.
Finally about the pictures. Today since this post is so long overdue a little different approach with the slideshow instead. It’s a big file and may take a while to download depending on your Internet connection, but should be worth the wait. Enjoy!
Another super fun wedding this year. Tyson and Mara are the kind of people you can instantly become friends with the moment you meet them and I was very excited when they booked me for their wedding.
Wedding and reception was planned at the Cobblestone Farm in Ann Arbor, MI and it somehow reminds me Meghann and Mike’s wedding I photographed last year. You can check it here.
Mara and Tyson wanted fall wedding and I love how their coordinated everything with fall colors
Photographing wedings pretty much every weekend during the season I see a lot of different ideas for details, yet I’m amazed every single time what brides can come up with making their wedding unique
3 pair of shoes! Mara prepared flats for the later in the night in case her feet get tired from all the dancing
Mara - Oh Marcin, they're absolutely gorgeous!! You were one of the best investments we made in our wedding day! I can't wait to see the rest of them! :)
Jason and Jessica planned their spectacular wedding at Michigan League in Ann Arbor, MI. The ceremony which was set up in the garden was scheduled around noon, and we started the day at 10am to cover some getting ready shots.
What a fun day! The weather was great - maybe even a little too sunny for outside photography, but who cares since we got really good shots What I really enjoyed however was the amazing lighting during early reception.
Jessica and Jason are the most genuine people and were such a pleasure to work with. They look beautiful together
I’m also blogging Mara and Tyson’s wedding today so let’s move on to the images.
We really enjoyed all the details. Obviously lot’s of thoughts went into planning. Look at the red shoes that go with the flowers too!
I love this shot. Yep, everything right on schedule
When I got boxed invitation to Marco and Shannon’s wedding I realized how much time brides put into planning their big day. I’m posting couple shots but you’d have to see the box and unwrap the package to appreciate
No matter how much time you spend planning you can never do anything about the weather. I was always drawn to shoot the wedding in the rain and little rain is good - nobody minds sneaking outside for a few shots. It was pouring hard that Saturday and few people want to get soaked when dressed up however
Wedding ceremony took place in Sainte Anne de Detroit and reception followed at The Grosse Pointe War Memorial. War Memorial is a beautiful location and I was a little bummed we couldn’t shoot due to a weather.
Huge thanks to Duane Orris for helping with equipment and getting some really outstanding shots (I’m jealous of some he got with guys outside)

Also in the box…
This was taken by Duane who stayed with Marco and groomsmen. I’m seriously jealous about this shot
We took this one just outside Shannon’s room - I love the lighting
I love this shot with Dustin chillin’ while everyone is running around to get in position
cheridy - did i see a picture of marzena in the wedding party???
how are you guys - i can't wait to see mayz' girlfriend soon. when do we get to hang? or do we pick too expensive of dinner places? we won't do it again!!
Marcin - Hey Cheridy,
Exactly, when do we get to hang? We miss you guys.
Dinner places are fine, we just need to go different days of the week if you know what I mean ;)
Tell Mayz he'd better get ready, his girlfriend is getting bigger :)
P.S
Yes, it's my wifey in the wedding party. Good eye!
wedding guest - o my God! I love your work :) Marco and Shannon look like celebrities !
Lisa and Andy had a fabulous wedding at the Gem Theatre in downtown Detroit. Andy and Lisa are very laid back couple and we really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere for their wedding.
We wanted to get some night shots taking advantage of the city lights, but Tigers played against Kansas City that night and there were thousands of people on the streets slowing us down a little. Nevertheless, we got some really cool shots so it was worth it.
As always I’m behind blogging so to the pictures, as I want to blog at least one more wedding tonight
Tim and Nicki have long history together, going back to middle school. Nicki had crash on Tim in 7th grade, but kept it secret. First initial of their last names is “W’ and their yearbook pictures were next to each other from 7th-12th grade. I’ve seen it and they looked so cute
They started dating 10 years ago, and officially became a couple in 2005.
They planned beautiful reception at the Pine Knob in Clarkston, MI and the ceremony took place at the Bridgewood Church.
After shooting their engagement session I was super excited about their wedding and couldn’t wait to photograph it. It’s hard to believe it’s been a month since their big day. In fact, they just got back from their honeymoon in Italy. I wanna see some pictures from the trip
Today, more pictures then usual. I’m trying to make up a little for being so far behind with blogging
When Julie and Mike came for the first consultation it turned out we were neighbors, living across each other, yet we’ve never met before! Julie found me through the online search. It’s amazing how Internet changed the way we do business nowadays.
Anyway, back to their marvelous wedding. The wedding was absolutely gorgeous and one can only imagine how much planning and work went into putting everything together.
Ceremony and reception was held at elegant Royal Park Hotel in Rochester, Michigan, which is just wonderful to photograph.
Mike and Julie decided to see each other before the ceremony and that was really cool, because we could cover B&G and family shots then, so the couple could enjoy the cocktail hour with their guests.
Some of my blog readers asked me what’s taking so long updating my blog, and as you can see I’m way behind and have a lot of catching up to do. I’m trying…
What fun! Being surrounded on the dance floor by 400 dancing wedding guests is an experience to be remembered for sure.
