“Tim and I are just goofy. We love to banter and tease each other, and just have fun every day.”

From the initial email, to a video chat that showed their goofy side, to their wedding day full of laughter and fun, this statement from Jenna perfectly describes her and Tim’s relationship.

Northern Michigan always held a special place in Alec and Audrey’s hearts. Alec proposed to her while walking along the Glen Haven beach. So when the two of them finally began to plan their wedding, it was only fitting they would celebrate with friends in family at a Northern Michigan venue.

We are so excited to share some of the photos from my sister Grace’s senior portraits. I will quite possibly never get over the ones in the wildflower field. When she’s not painting or otherwise being creative in some artistic way, you can find her (and likely me as well) at the thrift store, reading, or loving on her nieces and nephew (including our kids).

Two summers ago, we met Alex at his downtown home and made the short walk to the beach for photos at one of his favorite locations— Grand Traverse Bay. It was so special to photograph Alex’s senior portraits in a place that meant so much to him all growing up.

Not only are the Emerys some the coolest people we know, but they’re also family. We loved spending the evening with them in Glen Haven, capturing their family portraits.

Ryan and Grace’s wedding day reflected their personalities—chill and laid back with an emphasis on fun. It was the quintessential summer day in Northern Michigan. Rich blue skies reflected in the waters of Lake Michigan as Ryan and Grace met each other for their first look along the bay.
