Tara + John

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

Were married on 10.27.07 at Forest Lake Country Club in Bloomfield Hills. Tara had some gorgeous details and we were able to capture some really gorgeous moments. I loved her whole decor-she has such a knack for it being an Art Director. That is her actual handwriting on those menu’s scanned in. I think her handwriting is pretty enough to be a font. I love it! They also had the most gorgeous Rolls Royce car that was all in keeping with the classy theme. Her dress was just stunning-and I forgot to ask who made it-it was french and very classy! Enjoy!

this shot not only shows off the shoes, but the rainy, windy day we started with-a good scene setter:

Winnie + Matthew

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

were married on 10.26.07

They had a gorgeous reception at the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club and Winnie wore a gorgeous Alvina Valenta gown. We were able to capture some gorgeous moments with light and form. I am feeling a bit B+W today about their classic wedding-I think it fits. Enjoy!

I love this image of Winnie + Hillary looking through the e-session guest book:

easily one of my favorite images taken all year-I love the mood. It was raining and it creates this misty, moody feeling. They were backlit with a street lamp:

These final two are also strong favorites-Winnie’s dad was toasting them-and I love the lighting and mood:

Theresa + Joe

Monday, November 19th, 2007

are getting married this December at a bash I am sure that we won’t forget! Theresa has the most amazing red hair I have ever seen-I am totally jealous. I would have killed for red hair like hers when I was a kid-I always wanted some-but alas it was not to be.

Enjoy!

Kristen + Kevin

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

(I know, I know, we are behind with blogging as we hit the busiest time of the year with delivering albums and family portrait sessions (which we have a few to post!!) so hang tight as we play catch up!)

were married on 10.13.07!

We just adore these two-Kristen has the warmest most bubbly personality. She was so gung-ho for anything we did with them-including dragging them into the middle of a thistle infested field to catch the last of that gorgeous warm October light as it melted into the horizon (we had about 10 minutes to shoot all those cool field photos below!) Kevin is a riot because he loves Kristen so much and just went with all our ideas. They had an amazing scottish bagpiper pipe the boys in to the church from up the block-so neat! Thanks for trusting us guys-we heart you both! :)

never met a flowergirl as outgoing and bursting with personality as little miss A:

were also married a few weeks back in October-and we just adore them-they booked everything around our availablitiy and decided to have a very low key family only affair at a private home in Ann Arbor-we loved every second of their wedding.
