I was incredibly excited when my roommate from college emailed me about her engagement! After attending Michigan State University together, Ann moved to Chicago where she got a job in hospitality business and met the love of her life.

 I haven’t seen her in about three years and when she contacted me about engagement photos I was SO excited! We ended up going to Firefighters Park in Troy and had a blast! It was great to catch up – just like old times. Although we haven’t seen each other in so long, we were able to pick up like we had just seen each other the day before. They are getting married in just a few months and I can’t wait to see her in a beautiful wedding dress!!

Enjoy the preview!!

The adorable couple!

<3 this.

They were so cute!!

Love Firefighters!

They have such awesome eyes!

So photogenic!

Radi can make her laugh = LOVE this.

Getting married in March!

<3

Ann and Radi – I am so excited for the both of you! This is such an exciting time for both of you and I can’t wait to see you both on your wedding day!

Adam and I are so lucky to have such great friends. Two of these friends are getting married next October! Alan was the best man in our wedding and has been friends with Adam since they were just little kids. He met Maggie in college and proposed a couple of months ago in Niagara Falls (where they took their first vacation together).

We are so lucky to have them in our lives and I cannot wait to celebrate their wedding!

Enjoy the preview!

Yep – they are pretty damn adorable

Love.

A favorite.

Love this one!

Loving the fall!

Outfit change

<3

Too stinkin sweet

A special place where the two of them went when they lived in the area

Love you Alan and Maggie!!

If you are talking about awesomeness you must be talking about my next couple because, honestly, they are pretty awesome. Carrie and Brian are getting married in December (awesome) and I just can’t wait to spend some more time with them. I knew Carrie in high school and I was super excited when she contacted me about shooting her wedding.

The two of them are beyond fun and were up for anything I asked. I knew that we were pretty lucky when a deer walked right behind us as we were shooting – pretty awesome. Everything about this couples makes me smile and I can’t wait to see them again in December!

Enjoy the preview!

The adorable couple

Next two are some top favorites <3

Heritage Park makes for some awesome locations.

Carrie – You ROCK!

Carrie and Brian – Thank you SO much for allowing me to capture you in your engagement and your upcoming wedding! I can’t wait to see you guys in December (have I expressed that enough)!

I first met Jenny and Steven years and years ago at Michigan State. Jenny is best friends with one of my best friends, Erin.  Jenny and Steve have been dating for a very long time Good things to come to those who wait and a couple of months ago the two of them got engaged in Las Vegas!!

These two are truly great for each other and you can tell within the first ten minutes of meeting them that they were made for each other. I had a blast walking around the Royal Park Hotel (where they are getting married next year). Even though the rain was going to stop up – we pushed through!

I hope you enjoy the preview!!

The beautiful couple

Love this. 

Jenny, you are GORGEOUS!

Steve helping her out

The next two are a couple of favorites

The rain made everything so green!

<3

Haha… looks like a serious conversation is happening.

Seriously, these two didn’t take a bad photo.

LOVE!

Looks like someone is in the dog house

Catching a break from the rain

The next two are so fun!

Thank you Jenny and Steve for allowing me to capture this exciting time in your lives!! I’m sure I will see you both soon!

How lucky am I that I get to meet amazing people everyday? This statement rings true in regards to the fabulous couple I got to work with this past weekend.

Jason and Marie are two of the nicest, most sweet, couples I have ever met. I loved that I could tell Marie was excited for her photo session and I loved Jason for being a little shy (exactly how my own engagement session went).

They are incredibly perfect for each other and in every photo they truly compliment each other. I’m am SUPER thrilled we didn’t have to cancel – sometimes weather people have NO idea what they’re talking about!

Ann Arbor was gorgeous – so many perfect locations to stop and take a photo. I really truly hope that Marie and Jason (and their family and friends) enjoy their preview!

Perfect.

A favorite.

Love. Love. Love.

Marie and Jason truly rocked it out.

Love Marie’s smile here.

I love this caught moment

A perfect location.

They are just fabulous.

We literally had a perfect fall day – the colors were amazing.

Again with the colors.

Another favorite.

This building made me extremely happy.

Pure coolness

It was painful to take all these photos while they were wearing UofM gear – Go State

Had to make a quick stop at Ben and Jerry’s!

Back to this amazing ally.

LOVE.

You two are awesome.

<3

Marie and Jason – THANK YOU! Thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to capture your engagement. I had a blast walking the streets and campus of Ann Arbor with you. I can’t wait until your wedding where there will be a little more green blood Hope you enjoyed!!

This past Sunday I met Kim (another Novi High Grad) and Travis in downtown Northville- one of my absolute favorite places.  We were suppose to go to downtown Plymouth but our plans got rearranged and I’m so glad they did!

Kim and I have been emailing each other back and forth about when to do the photos. We had a date and then her poor dog had to have surgery.  We had another day but then Travis had to go to Georgia. Finally we picked this past Sunday – Travis was going to be in from Georgia and it was going to be perfect.

And perfect it was. This couple is so fun that I seriously can’t wait for their wedding (I was promised that they are going to have one of the most fun wedding parties).

I hope you guys enjoy your preview!

One of those laughing photos that I just LOVE.

LOVing the backgrounds in Northville!

<3

I Love all the colors! The purple and yellows make me smile

Kim! You are SO gorgeous! Love this photo of you!

A downtown classic – Genitti’s

How can you not love benches and ally ways?!

A favorite – I loved these doors

Let’s see the bling bling!

I’m also loving this photo – gorg!

And another favorite – Kim, your eyes are amazing.

Don’t worry – they act like this everyday, right Travis?

The colors make me so happy – Fall should be around all the time.

Michigan and Ohio State … Where’s MSU?!

I had to break these two part … it looked like Travis might have the lead on Kim but…

Kim was able to get him in a choke hold

Can’t we all just be friends?

<3

They made up

They are both in the police field so we found it appropriate :)

Another favorite.

You two are perfect for each other! Always stay as happy as you guys were the day we took these pictures!

Thank you again to Kim and Travis – even though we had to change locations, change dates and get Travis to the airport on time – we did it. I had a blast and cannot wait for your wedding!

I had the pleasure of taking pictures for Jessica (Alumni of Novi High- Woo hoo) and Matt for their engagement.

I know I may say this a lot, but my clients are honestly the best people. Both Jessica and Matt came out ready and willing to do whatever was asked of them. If I told them to climb on a tree branch sitting over the water – they were in.  If I asked them to show a little PDA they did it (although Matt was a little more comfortable with that ).

They are truly a sweet and loving couple and I just can’t wait to shoot their wedding next year!

Hope you guys enjoy your preview!

I love when clients laugh for real! So cute!

Wow. Aren’t they a gorgeous couple?!

One of my favorites.

We had some gorgeous colors!

LOVE this one – Jessica you are beautiful!

So cute!

I love the happiness that Jessica exuded.

Have to get the beautiful ring in there!

<3

There’s that whole laughing thing again – LOVE it.

How can you see this wall and NOT take a picture with it?

Love.

LOVE this background – Northville has so many perfect spots.

Love this.

Ummm… engagement sessions in the fall? Yes, please.

Beautiful.

Thank you Jessica and Matt for allowing me to spend the morning with you guys around Northville! I can’t wait for your wedding next year!

This past weekend I had the pleasure of taking Cameron and Mike’s engagement photos.

As soon as they stepped out of the car, Mike grabbed Cameron’s hand and they walked toward me – together.

This is how every shoot should begin- with a little dash of love.

I love engagement sessions because it allows me to get to know the couple before their big day.  The three of us had a great time (even though a lot of couples and families had the same idea that day). We roamed around Mills Race (Northville, MI) and we came out with some fabulous photos.

Congrats Cameron and Mike! I hope you enjoy your preview! Can’t wait for the wedding next Spring!

Seriously? They ooze cuteness, right?

Cameron – you are gorgeous!

Love the the ‘sweet love’ they are showing each other here.

Cam! I love this one of you!

You both have fabulous smiles. Period.

How fun is this image?

This is what I got when I said ‘Give me a serious look.’ Ha! I love it!

See Cameron?! You can TOTALLY work it!

Can you find Cam and Mike?! LOVE this wall!

Mike, you were rocking this photo session too!

Gotta love some bling.

Mill Race seriously has some beautiful areas. What a great location.

Cameron and Mike – Thank you so much for allowing me to document this special time in both of your lives! Next Spring is going to be a blast!
