wow, guys, that’s an AWESOME spread!
When I opened the magazine and saw these photos, I was pretty darn excited for you! You totally rocked this wedding.
Congratulations, guys! Having your work published is such a blast and a real joy, isn’t it?
I’ll bet thumbing through the pages of your pictures presents an entirely different “feel” than looking at the images on acomputer screen or even on a set-top screen. Gotta luv it. ![]()

Catherine + Andrew’s wedding at Torch Lake
Buckle up-because this is gonna be a long one! We photographed Catherine + Andrew’s amazing wedding at her parent’s cottage home on the gorgeous Torch Lake last month and have been dying to blog it since! It was so Martha Stewart Chic! Andrew + Catherine are from L.A. so we didn’t have the pleasure of meeting them until we showed up to shoot their rehearsal dinner on Friday-and we were so thrilled to hit it off so well with them! The day threatned rain all day, but it never did! Which was a good thing b/c we had our outdoor photobooth to set up that they hired us to do-it turned out fantastic and was so fun to see people let loose and get their photo taken! Enjoy!
Thanks again for asking us to shoot your wedding guys!
Catherine + Andrew’s Wedding Details:
Venue: Private Home, Torch Lake Michigan
Dress: J.Crew
Shoes: Christian Louboutin
Part 1: The rehearsal dinner
The day before the wedding they had a fabulous rehersal BBQ dinner at a friends home just up the street from Catherine’s parent’s home. It was gorgeous-and the perfect night-with the perfect sunset!










Part 2-the wedding day!







































Part 3-the PHOTOBOOTH!!!! Needs no explanation-it just rocks!:

You guys are absolutely the best!!! The photo booth photos really do rock! And for the rest….we’re really at a loss for words. You captured all our favorite moments so perfectly, and the funny thing is, I was so nervous to get the photos because I really don’t remember you taking any! You blended right in and just got everything we wanted. And we are so glad you were at the rehearsal dinner - it’s so great to have all those photos. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
Awesome work guys! What a lovely weekend. Isn’t this just a wonderful time of year? So beautiful! ![]()

As always, great work. I am a big fan! ![]()
really, really beautiful, you guys. northern michigan is my favorite spot for weddings. ![]()
Amazing amazing photos! Congrats Catherine and Andrew! What a great idea for the photobooth!
Love the photobooth guys! Thanks for starting this great addition 2 months after our wedding, haha:-P Can we pretend we had it and photoshop some good ones into the booth? Love it, what a fun addition to your fabulous photos!!
love this bride’s dress and LOVE the michigan pillow that the rings were one! ![]()
What an amazing location–Torch Lake is gorgeous. Catherine is a gorgeous bride, and all of the details she planned were simply breathtaking.
LOVE the vibe of the party shots, especially the smoking one & the rock star pose. Very vintage & cool.
What a great shoot, Jess & Nate! Always stunning work and the photobooth–well–I am sure more weddings are going to have that now! What a great idea…
Absolutely stunning! I’m sure you get that a lot. ☺
I don’t know a lot about photography, I’m actually an invitation designer, but I was wondering how you achieve that vintage-soft look in all your photos. Is this an editing technique or some kind of filter? I’ve seen some vignetting in your work, which I am familiar with, but the color and focus in your photos is just so capturing!
Keep up the great work, you make Michigan look like a fairy tale! ☺
gorgeous work you guys! the twist of fun and character is awesome too! - katrina

Kacie’s Senior Session
We have been so busy with weddings and seniors-we have barely had time to blog either! Here are some images from Kacie’s awesome senior session last month…she reminds me of a cross between brooke shields and angie harmon. We had a blast photographing her at our studio and around downtown Ann Arbor.









Comments
Where did you get those awesome backgrounds?
oh my god - i want to graduate again so you can do my senior portrait! she’s gorgeous. to be young again….
I know, isn’t she gorgeous? I wish I could have my senior photos re-done as well!
Justin-they are all handmade backgrounds my husband made for me with fabric we choose every year. The red wall and concrete + warehouse were all outdoors. HTH!

Love these two!!! We have had so much fun with these two, from e-session to their wedding….could Courtney be any more gorgeous? They were married at Castle Farms in Charlevoix back in June, and silly me forgot to get most all her details. Anyway, that gives you more time to enjoy the photos!!
Thanks for being so awesome Courtney + Kevin!

Alisha + Brian’s Wedding at the Chop House Ann Arbor
The more we get to know Alisha + Brian the more we love them. We didn’t get to do an e-session before the wedding, so I we didn’t know each other too well come wedding day-but we had nothing to worry about! We left their wedding feeling like we had a new adopted family. We just adore Alisha, Brian, and their families. Thanks for treating us so wonderfully! Since Alisha’s dad is an owner of the Chop House, it was shut down for the wedding all day on a Sunday-talk about special! Another special thing-they honeymooned in the gorgeous island of Montserrat for 2 whole weeks. Color me jealous!
Thanks again for trusting us with your wedding guys-your the best! Enjoy your upcoming journey to Greece!
Alisha + Brian’s Details:
Venue: The Chop House
Dress: Jenny Lee
Flowers: Thom Thompson Flowers, Ann Arbor








love this shot of Alisha + her dad right before the ceremony:


















LOVE these! Alisha decided to throw her bouquet outside-the reactions are priceless:

well, whoever that fabulous shutterbug couple is, i really hope that guy’s face is permanently like that because that grin is pretty amazing
these pictures are just ridiculously beautiful…part of that because kate and mike are pretty much supermodels, but the bigger part of that is due to your crazy, amazing talent! just gorgeous work, guys!
Gorgeous! I love that green lawn with the guys walking away!
We love them Jess! They are all so beautiful! You and Nate did a fantabulous job - as always
We can’t wait to see them all. Our album is going to ROCK! It very well may be your largest album to date ![]()
All of this lucky couples photo’s are amazing, you captured their spirit elegantly and romantically. My favorite one is the two of them on the grass looking very content…but I really do think they are all amazing.
Go ahead, pat yourself on the back..you two deserve it.

You two just blow my mind, everytime. Wow.
Wow! We are speechless! Jess and Nate - you did a fabulous job! We couldn’t be more thrilled with these pictures and we can’t wait to see the rest.

simply beautiful… great work you two!! congratulations to the fabulous newlyweds! - katrina
Ok…..I think you two are absolutely amazing!!!! How do you get such stunning clients and locations…every picture on here amazes me. I’ve known you for a while, you are an inspiration…just had to let ya know!
I must say that out of all the wedding photographer blog’s I’ve seen, your website is by FAR “la creme de la creme”. Your photos, and ability to capture such beautiful moments are a fascination for us “to-be-brides”. I’m afraid your benchmark is set too high that it just makes the rest look like amateurs.
I have a question though, I love Kate’s earings + bracelet. Could you advise me what brand/where she got it from?
Kate + Mike - your photos are absolutely stunning! It makes all of us envy to have a day as magical like yours. =)
Many Thanks!
I think I went to HS with the groom..

Congratulations! It’s such a beautiful wedding!
