Adam + Sarah Engagement | Brown Bridge Quiet Area
We enjoyed a lovely golden evening at Brown Bridge Quiet Area with Adam and Sarah as we got to know them and their sweet story:
We enjoyed a lovely golden evening at Brown Bridge Quiet Area with Adam and Sarah as we got to know them and their sweet story:
When Sarah moved to Michigan 8 years ago, she met her best friend Ashley through work. As best friends do, Ashley tried to set Sarah up with a few people in the area but no one was quite the right fit for her. The two of them joked about Sarah potentially dating Ashley’s brother, Adam (maybe you can see where this is going).
Over time, Sarah and Adam eventually became friends and they found a natural spark, comfort and ease in being together. To Ashley’s great joy, her best friend and brother finally gave the dating relationship a chance. And the rest is history!
Jack + Tatum Engaged
We loved photographing these portraits for my brother Jack and his fiancée the day they got engaged. Jack proposed earlier in the day with just the two of them, but we met them at our favorite coffee shop Mundos Roasting & Co. to congratulate them and capture a few portraits of the two of them together.

Jack proposed earlier in the day with just the two of them, but we met them at our favorite coffee shop Mundos Roasting & Co. to congratulate them. It was fitting to snap a few photos of the two of them there since Jack is the head coffee roaster of the shop. Afterward we drove a few minutes down the road to a local park downtown and took a few more portraits of the two of them together. Congratulations Jack + Tatum!

New Years Day Portraits | Alec + Audrey
It was a joy to spend New Years Day photographing Alec and Audrey's engagement photos. We had fresh snow beneath our feet as we trekked out into the woods behind her parents' home where we found a beautiful scene. String lights hung between the trees guiding a path through the forest
It was a joy to spend New Years Day photographing Alec and Audrey's engagement photos. We had fresh snow beneath our feet as we trekked out into the woods behind her parents' home where we found a beautiful scene. String lights hung between the trees guiding a path through the forest. We stopped here and there amidst the trees and stood back to capture Alec and Audrey's interactions. We had the sweetest time laughing with them and getting to know them. We loved capturing their engagement and wedding (which will also be coming to the blog at some point!). Congratulations Alec + Audrey!
Fall Color Anniversary Session | John + Sarah
Since they were still going to be up in Traverse City on their original date, we all decided on holding their date to do an anniversary session instead. It was so lovely to see them again a year later and document these portraits amongst the beautiful Fall colors.
John and Sarah had an intimate wedding in 2020 with plans to celebrate with a much larger group in 2021 for a big wedding reception. We photographed their October wedding and were booked for their reception the following year as well. But as time went on, they changed their plans and ended up canceling the reception altogether. Since they were still going to be up in Traverse City on their original date, we all decided on holding their date to do an anniversary session instead. It was so lovely to see them again a year later and document these portraits amongst the beautiful Fall colors. It's been an honor to photograph John and Sarah on so many occasions. You can view their engagement blogpost HERE and their wedding blogpost HERE. We can't wait to hopefully do many more sessions with John and Sarah in the future!
Fall Color Engagement | Adam and Laura 2.0
After getting rained on during their original engagement session date, we decided to schedule a second session for Adam and Laura to hopefully spend a bit more time capturing portraits of the two of them and their sweet pup, Callie.

In case you missed it, you can check out their rainy engagement photos HERE first, and then come back to take a look at their Fall color engagement portraits. We had beautiful weather and gorgeous colors on this day, much different than our grey and rainy twenty-minute session before. We had so much fun getting to hang out with them twice and capturing two very different scenes and circumstances with them. It just made us all the more excited for their wedding!
