Amanda and Bryan are just incredible people, and even more so together as a couple. You may remember their lovely faces from our engagement session last February. Hanging out with Bryan and Amanda there is never a shortage of fun and laughter. I think my favorite memory from the day was their first look. It was sweet, tender, romantic, emotional, joking, and laughter all wrapped up in one. Honestly I think there were just too many incredible memories throughout the day and hopefully these images speak for what my words fail to describe. Thank you so much to you both and your families for including me on such a special day, it was truly an honor.

On a beautiful day against a bright blue sky with big puffy white clouds, Carrie and Aric said I do at Kalamazoo Country Club. There were so many great moments and memories, of course there were Carrie's blue sparkly Jimmy Choo shoes. What's not to like about those, but I think my favorite moment for their special day was when Carrie surprised her mom with a first dance together. It was an emotional, tears of joy dance that was so sweet and sentimental. Congrats to the newly weds, what an amazing day! I'm so honored to have shared it with you.

Sam and Kyle said "I Do" under a tall weeping willow tree with Spring Lake as a beautiful back drop at Spring Lake Country Club on a warm and windy day. It was such a fun day with an exceptional party. Congrats to the newly weds!

Ashley and Marcus are incredible people and I was so honored to document their special day of love. You may remember them from their Nashville Engagement session. They shared heartfelt vows on the blue bridge downtown with perfect Grand Rapids cityscape views, then danced the night away at Frederik Meijer Gardens. Everything was absolutely amazing, with so much love and laughter sorrounding them. Thank you for including me, I felt like an honorary bridal party member throughout the whole day :) Congrats to the newlyweds!
