It’s no secret that 2020 brought on many challenges for those planning weddings. Despite all of the ups and downs, Mel and Brittany exchanged their vows in an intimate wedding at the Royal Park Hotel. It may not have been the wedding they originally planned to have, but it was absolutely beautiful and beyond emotional. […]

Maria and Matt’s wedding day was one of those pandemic weddings where plan B ended up being so much more incredible than plan A.It was another wedding full of ups and downs in terms of getting to the date and making the actual wedding happen, but they pulled it off. Maria and Matt were originally […]

Baby Brooks | Metro Detroit Newborn Photographer   Welcome to the world, Brooks!

Ashely and Chris had a romantic Michigan Summer wedding in late August surrounded by their closest friends and family. Chris and his groomsmen wore charcoal gray tuxes, while Ashley’s bridesmaids stunned in burgundy bridesmaid dresses. It was the perfect combination for a late Summer/Fall Michigan Wedding! The florals complimented the burgundy dresses with pops of […]

Yvonna and Alex’s Downtown Detroit summer engagement session was SO good! We actually had to reschedule our original plans due to rain (thanks, Michigan!), but I am so glad that we did. The rescheduled date ended up being a gorgeous Michigan summer evening with an amazing golden hour. Yvonna stunned in a navy blue floor […]

I have been looking forward to Stephanie and Tyler’s wedding day for over a year now for a few reasons, but mainly because they are such a sweet couple and because I have been dying to shoot at the Grosse Pointe War Memorial!! Stephanie and Tyler have such a great group of friends and family […]

All of Kristen’s family was in on the surprise proposal, and everyone managed to keep the secret under wraps […]

Ahhh!! I cannot believe that I even get to write this post. I’m getting pretty emotional even just thinking of what to write… In the first couple years of my business I had a handful of people asking me if I shoot weddings and I turned them down and said no. I just told them […]

First of all, they could not have asked for better weather for a November wedding!…they must’ve paid mother nature off 😉 But in all honesty, the entire day was absolutely beautiful from beginning to […]

Courtney called me not even a week before their wedding and told me she and AJ were getting married. She asked if I would be able to come take photos, and there was no way I could say no! You probably recognize Courtney, AJ and their little nugget Brigg as they have been in front […]

The Edsel and Eleanor Ford house is one of my favorite locations for sessions, and it is even more beautiful in the fall! I spent the morning walking the grounds with Stephanie and Dustin for their engagement session. We actually were supposed to do the session 2 weeks earlier, but we ended up rescheduling because […]
