Troy & Laura





Weddings bring out the best in people! We learned that Troy has a real calling for wedding planning. I've never seen a man with such tenacity for organization! As for Laura, it seems her close friends believe she has a real career as a milkmaid; they were even generous enough to supply her with a trusty butter churn. ;) Their outdoor ceremony took place at The Homestead Resort on top of a hill overlooking lake Michigan, it was absolutely beautiful. We traveled to the beach at sunset and got some stunning photos.

Megan & Jason





A bird attacked me! While scoping out good photo spots for this engagement session a bird flew over and took a big chunk of my hair. How shocking! I thought that kind of stuff only happened in the movies. Whoever was driving by at that moment must have thought the scene looked hilarious. We had to wait out the rain, but their photos still turned out great. These two compliment each other perfectly; Megan is a chatty little fireball while Jason is the strong silent type. In the future he will just have to remind her to hold on to her cars keys. ;)

Shannon & Paddy





Shannon met Paddy in Australia where she stole his heart. He followed her back to her hometown in Michigan and the rest is history. Paddy must be a funny guy because he kept Shannon giggling throughout the entire photo session, which made for some beautiful candid photographs. These two are completely adorable!

My Garden





I recently purchased a new lens and thought that my garden would be the perfect place to try it out. My irises look beautiful. I am so excited for the rest of my garden to bloom. This year I planted a lot of seeds and bulbs (glads, poppies, freesia, ranunculus, anemones, peonies.) It wasn't looking good with those two frost warnings, but the weather has been great, so I hope things start to sprout soon.
