This family!  Oh my goodness!  These little gentlemen have such manners!  The minute they popped out of the car, they each came up and introduced themselves to me and shook my hand, while looking me in the eye.  They were engaging with directions, appropriately playful, and really got along well together.  What a fun time!

Laura and Drew were married at the top of the vines at Black Star Farms winery in Suttons Bay.  It was a perfect day for an event among the vines. The love between these two shines so bright.  They are such wonderful people; it was a great honor to be a part of their day!

Oh my goodness!  This family!  Everybody came together for a vacation up north with the most precious little doll.  This may be the happiest child I have seen in a while.  The entire time was nothing but smiles and giggles!

Nate and Kathleen will be getting married next fall in Traverse City.  Tessa, their Golden Retriever,  joined us for engagement photos and was a super good girl.  Yes, that is miss Tessa dog rocking out a Michigan State team jersey!

Some days at work make me smile for days!  Today I got to wear snowpants, go 4 wheeling on an unplowed country road, and freeze my butt off in 17 degree weather to be a part of Cass and Rod’s winter ski-in wedding.  It was fantastic!  Despite the cold temperatures, the winds were fair and the sun peeked in and out of the clouds; making for an ideal winter’s day.  Lovely Cass and handsome Rod skied the few miles from the Homestead in Glen Arbor to the barn on Miller Road at Port Oneida to meet me and the officiant and commit their vows to each other.  It is always quite an honor to be part of an intimate gathering and participating in a happy couple’s union.

 

I spend every work day participating in and documenting other people’s lives and it isn’t very often that I get to play that role with my own family and friend’s.   It was such a pleasure working with Jesse and Liz on their engagement photos.  As a family, we helped Jesse propose from a helicopter last month!  It’s been so much fun being a part of this side of things!

We had a super fun day with the Zywicki family in the apple orchard.  These little dudes cracked me up!  Such happy little guys, and busy, and curious!

Okay, so your sisters crashing your senior photo session may not be on every guy’s favorites list, but when you also get to have photos with your truck and firearms, on the family property; you overlook the sisters.
