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
It’s not often that you get a couple in front of your camera for their engagement session that you have previously photographed!! Sharon was a bridesmaid & David was a groomsmen in Kiley & Daniel’s Detroit wedding this past fall, which was one of my favorites from 2018!
Olompia & Alex met through mutual friends. Olompia liked Alex, Alex liked Olompia, and the rest was history. I met up with the two of them at the Detroit Institute of Arts for their engagement session and we had the entire Rivera Court to ourselves!
Christine and Dawie were married the first Saturday of 2019. It was the merging of two people. Of two countries. Of two cultures. Christine was born here in the US and Dawie was born in South Africa. Work brought him to Michigan, which in turn, brought him to Christine.
