Obsessed with all things classic & elegant. Lover of warm hugs, live music, green juice, the Bachelor & tea.
Most days you'll find me sitting at my kitchen counter, clad in a mix of J.Crew and Zara (in neutral colors, of course), pouring my heart into this business of mine while dancing along to my latest Spotify playlist and sipping on a cup of hot tea. I'm an award-winning, published wedding photographer that is obsessed with all things classic and elegant. I'm a former California girl, but a true Midwesterner at heart. I love warm hugs, live music and getting texts from my brides that they cried when they saw their wedding photos!! I live for mornings on my yoga mat and green juice after. Among friends, I'm known for never missing an episode of The Bachelor on Monday nights, overusing exclamation points, and disliking coffee (but loving coffee shops)!
CLASSIC PHOTOGRAPHY FOR THE NATURALLY ELEGANT BRIDE
Today on the blog, I’m sharing something I struggled with last year: how to know when it’s time to quit your full-time job for your side hustle, which in my case was my wedding photography business that I had been growing on the nights and weekends.
Chris and Caitlin’s engagement session has me so ready for summer! I’m dreaming about lazy days on the beach, sand between your toes and watching the sun setting over the water! Belle Isle is one of my favorite places in Detroit and the beach there does not disappoint!
Athena and Vugar met when they were working in the same restaurant. On their first date, Vugar took Athena to Downtown Detroit and they ended up watching the sun rise along the Detroit riverfront. When it came time to propose, Vugar took Athena back to that exact spot along the river where they ended their first date and asked her to spend forever with him.
The gorgeous Belle Isle Casino in Detroit served as the backdrop for Rob and Lindsey’s engagement photos last week! Detroit is seriously my favorite city to photograph in in Michigan as there are just so many great locations for photos and I have two more Detroit engagement sessions hitting the blog this week!
Maddie and David met when they both worked at Fox Hills in Plymouth and on Saturday it all came full circle as they celebrated day one of their marriage there surrounded by their dearest family and friends! The sun was shining as Maddie walked up to David for their first look and when they saw each other for the first time all dressed up on their wedding day, the smiles on their faces said it all!
Sheetal & Sanjay were married a few weeks ago at Kasi Sri Viswanatha Temple, a beautiful Hindu temple in Flint, MI. From the road, all you see is a sign, but once you turn in and drive a bit, you see this stunning white temple with elephant statues in front of it!
