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!
Kelly and Alex had a beautiful day for a wedding at Camp Firefly at the Homestead in Glen Arbor. The weather was perfect for our first look with their whole group. It was a great family gathering!
That color! The Sanborn family had a glorious fall day in Leelanau County for family photos.
Stephanie and Michael had an intimate ceremony at the Old Settlers Park Chapel in Glen Arbor and had great fall colors for their day. We made a stop at the Commons and then were off to a lovely reception at the Top of the Park at the Park Place Hotel in Traverse City.
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!
Abbie and Jake had their Homecoming photos done ahead of the dance day – these are smart kids! I so enjoy spending a little time with young people (man, that makes me sound old) who have themselves together. It give me hope that tomorrow’s leaders really do exist.
This family knows how to have a good time together! The whole family laughed and joked together and grandma just rolled her eyes and laughed right along with them. We had a fun evening on the beach at the Homestead in Glen Arbor.
Tricia and her husband were blessed to have their three boys and their ladies, and the three grandsons join them for the week on Lake Leelanau for a family vacation together.
David and Elizabeth were married at the Snow Moon Ranch in Glen Arbor on a beautiful summer day. We began on the beach at the Homestead for a first look and then went to the ranch for their ceremony. They were blessed with a gorgeous summer evening filled with dancing, sparklers, and fun had by all.
Kristy and Vince and a fantastic summer wedding day on the Island Thyme patio. These two truly wonderful people, had summer sunshine, a lovey catch phrase between themselves, a dog as a best man, fireworks, sparklers, a stellar band, AND a s’mores bar! There is nothing else that could have made the day any better. Oh, wait, Allison’s puppy thought he needed to walk down the aisle, too – that was pretty funny. And then there is their custom wedding bands that were just out of this world – complete with engravings of water and earth for Vince and coffee and flatware for Kristy. AND let’s take a second to send a shout out the ENTIRE Tomczak family, including Dad, all the siblings (how many – 10 of you?), and all the nieces and nephews.
