Mark + Lindsay | Traverse City Wedding | The Peninsula Room
When Mark and Lindsay initially reached out and shared their love story with us, I couldn’t help but audibly gasp. It felt straight out of a movie! We really truly love Mark and Lindsay and their children. Every time we have had an opportunity to photograph them has been an absolute joy. We are so happy that they found each other and are so honored that they chose us to document this piece of their story.
When Mark and Lindsay initially reached out and shared their love story with us, I couldn’t help but audibly gasp. It felt straight out of a movie! Growing up in the same small town, working at his family’s local grocery store together and then reuniting years and years later in that same small town where Mark finally asked Lindsay out on a date. And from there, as you can see, the rest is history.
The day of their wedding was a stark difference compared to their winter engagement session earlier in the year. September 2nd brought blue skies and sunshine—a lovely day for a wedding. Instead of a classic bridal party, Lindsay’s children stood with them and her two boys even walked her down the aisle. Mark and Lindsay surprised all of their guests with a special performance by NUCLASSICA—playing during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and then really stepping it up during the reception! The room was electric and everyone couldn’t wait to get out on the dance floor. Finally, Mark and Lindsay snuck away to watch the sunset on the beach across the road before coming back to a sparkler ‘re-entrance’ into their reception celebration.
We really truly love Mark and Lindsay and their children. Every time we have had an opportunity to photograph them has been an absolute joy. We are so happy that they found each other and are so honored that they chose us to document this piece of their story. Congratulations Mark + Lindsay. Your love for each other is radiant!

Mark and Lindsay | Winter Engagement Portraits
As is with most winter days in Northern Michigan, it was frigidly cold. But Mark and Lindsay held each other close and kept each other warm despite the wind and snow. By the end of their session our noses were red and our mouths were numb but it was so so worth it for the beautiful winter engagement portraits we were able to capture

By the end of their session our noses were red and our mouths were numb but it was so so worth it for the beautiful winter engagement portraits we were able to capture. We knew instantly that their wedding was going to be just as beautiful and we were definitely not disappointed--we can't wait to share their wedding photos on the blog soon!
