Having been through a butt load of weddings have granted me some knowledge that - well - the average bride and groom probably don't have. I mean, most of you have never planned a wedding before. Sure, maybe you've been a bridesmaid or helped out at a friends wedding (then you have a head start!), but for most, the intricacies and behind the scenes of weddings is probably a little overwhelming. You choose your wedding vendors. You pick a wedding venue. You taste food and weddi

Tessa and Josh were married at the Blodgett Wedding Barn in Schoolcraft, Michigan and what a lovely day it was! Blodgett is a newer wedding venue and definitely worth checking out. The barn was first updated and used for the wedding of the owners' daughter! After her wedding, the owners were asked when they would start renting out, and one thing led to another, additions and updates were made, and the barn was converted into a lovely wedding venue with an indoor/outdoor feel

Where to start. This wedding was such a fun story to tell. The sweetest couple. Awesome wedding party. Beautiful venue. And rain. While rain might sound like a bad thing, it made this wedding day pretty exciting, and I did my best to capture every minute. For this wedding, I had Rachel from Adventure Photo Stories as my second shooter - we have too much fun together and tell wedding stories in a very similar way and always have each other's back. We arrived for detail photos

There was a time when I was afraid to go to Detroit, but after working there so many times as a wedding photographer, this city seriously has my heart. Over the past few years, I have really rebranded myself to be a Detroit wedding photographer, and let me show you why! There is so much beauty and class and amazing architecture in Detroit (not to mention the food and cocktails!). Here are my top 15 most favorite Detroit area wedding venues - both for your ceremony and getting

I met Sandy and Zack last year in Ann Arbor for the engagement session, and I knew there wedding would be super awesome and low key. They are both so kind and easy to get along with. That being said, this wedding brought up a topic that I think needs to be addressed. Hey wedding vendors: When you are hired by a client, your job is to do what they want you to do. It really (usually) is that simple. Secondly, if you talk badly about my clients (AND YOURS) behind their backs to

If you have been planning your wedding long, you probably have come across articles from The Knot and Wedding Wire and wherever else about questions that you should ask potential photographers. Along with their average photography budget, they got these questions horribly wrong. I know because I have seen them and been asked them. Here is the thing - knowing what equipment your photographer uses gives you absolutely no clue about their experience or skill level. It merely tel

Sarah and Josh were married at Orchard Beach Campground in Manistee, Michigan, and it was absolute perfection! These two were all about having a chill day with their favorite people and some of the most beautiful scenery that Michigan has to offer. In the morning, when Gabe and I arrived at the campground, there was a thick fog over the lake. It was cool and serene, but we also worried that the beautiful Lake Michigan backdrop for Josh and Sarah's ceremony wouldn't show up! A
