jay+chelsea {singing.in.the.rain}

amid the romance of beautiful fall colors and rain tapping on the window pane...chelsea and jay said 'i do' and vowed their lives to each other. although rain on her wedding day may not have been what chelsea had hoped for, nothing could keep this day from being splendid in every way.  with a bridal party and wedding couple ready to brave any element of weather, we had the opportunity for some moments that turned out as beautiful and one of a kind as these two are.

blessings to you j&c - now go get lost in that caribbean sun!

dustin+recia {under.a.rainbow.sky}

i am so incredibly grateful for clients who trust me with their wedding day and are excited to have me share in the festivities of such a marvelous celebration. and i would have to say that recia and dustin are such clients in rare form!  i felt so welcomed and so encouraged throughout their entire day...working within the freedom of my passion and personal perspective, both dustin and recia reminded me time and time again how thankful they were for me...wow, talk about a humbling, grateful place to be!

the fire of fall in michigan delivered again, with colors of brilliance and a rainbow to match.

thanks you two, you make my job such a joy! i hope you enjoy this preview*

oh...and yes, at the end, it is gangnam style, and things got crazy...just in case you were wondering*

blessings,

matt+carly {fall.farm.fairytale}

changing colors and the beauty of a fall day in michigan - this was an amazing canvas to paint on with photos from the wedding celebration of matt & carly! i can remember a conversation i had with matt during their engagement session...when carly needed to run back to the car for something...listening to him speak of his to be bride - this man was in love.  he was in love in every sense of the word, from the romance that had started when they first met, to the commitment he knew he was making when taking carly's hand in marriage.  he was not only marrying her, but beginning a family with her two beautiful children.

i was so excited to be with them on this day...and to witness two families joining, surrounding this beautiful couple in love and encouragement.

matt, carly..thank you - was truly splendid!
