After the ruling came down in Michigan that legalized same sex marriage, Melissa took Kayla out to dinner to celebrate. What Kayla didn’t know was that Melissa had a surprise up her sleeve! With their closest family and friends surrounding them at the table, Melissa proposed to Kayla over pizza! She said yes and these two tied the knot at the end of October at Cobblestone Farm in Ann Arbor on a warm, sunny Fall day! From the moment I met with Melissa and Kayla earlier this year over coffee to hear all about their wedding plans, I knew their wedding would be full of love and laughter and it did not disappoint! The weather was literally perfect for their outdoor ceremony and there were so many fun moments and so many emotional moments during their day! Kayla, who wore the most beautiful blush colored lace wedding dress, cried when she saw Melissa standing at the altar waiting for her and it was one of the sweetest moments of the day. The toasts that their maids of honors gave were really sweet too. My favorite moment of the night though was when Kayla and her Dad were having their father/daughter dance. About halfway through the song, they brought Melissa in to dance with them! Let me tell you, I was blinking back the tears behind my camera!! Melissa and Kayla, thank you so much for letting me be apart of your journey and allowing me to document day one of your marriage! I hope you love the photos!! xx, Jen
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)!
