Mara & Tyson wedding - Cobblestone Farm Ann Arbor, MI

November 7, 2008 – 8:51 pm

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

Love the fall colors theme

Jessica & Jason - Michigan League, Ann Arbor, MI

November 7, 2008 – 8:17 pm

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

Shannon and Marco’s Wedding - War Memorial, Grosse Pointe

October 13, 2008 – 11:52 pm

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

Lisa and Andy - Gem Theatre, Detroit

October 13, 2008 – 8:19 pm

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

Nicki and Tim - Pine Knob wedding

September 23, 2008 – 5:36 pm

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

Julie and Mike - Royal Park Hotel, Rochester, MI

September 17, 2008 – 8:33 pm

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…

August 24, 2008 – 9:35 am

Hi party people,

this post has been long overdue, but it’s hard to keep up with the blog in the mid of the wedding season.

3 weeks ago I had a great pleasure to photograph Wes and Jessica’s beautiful wedding on Mackinac Island, MI

Jessica and Wes live in Paris and the wedding day was the first time we’ve met. What I really loved about the day is how relaxed everything was. We had so much shooting!

Thanks for having us and enjoy your sneak peak.

Kristin & Rick’s wedding - Glen Oaks, Farmington

July 28, 2008 – 1:13 pm

We had a pleasure to photograph a wedding of a super cool and sexy couple last weekend!

Kristin is Greek, Rick is British. They used to live in Fiji, and now they are moving to Caribbean. FIJI and CARIBBEAN! Tell me you wouldn’t like to have their life, at least for a while

They already got married in Fiji, and this was their ‘official wedding’. Here are some of my favorites:
