The Detroit Opera House is summed up by the words “classic elegance.” The decor is exquisite and the theater which turns into the ballroom is very spacious and extravagant. Last year we photographed Bessie and Sina’s wedding there and our jaws dropped when we walked in and saw the room. It was magnificent! I love the spotlights through the auditorium that provided really unique lighting on the whole venue.




Walking through the hallways and seeing the stunning chandeliers made us realize that we were a part of something really special!

The event we photographed their in 2009 was on the same night as a Detroit Tigers game. Comerica Park is right across the street and it made driving and parking very difficult and confusing for a lot of the guests so make sure to check the schedules and have a plan in place in the event of a game.

We loved the open feel to the room and the food was terrific!


Since it’s downtown, there are lots of neat places to go to get some of the most creative wedding photos you’ve ever seen!!

Today we spent a rainy afternoon with Justin and Melissa doing a studio engagement shoot with them.
Whenever we shoot we try to do things a little bit differently so while in studio today we experimented with different backgrounds and different use of light/poses to get unique photos.
Here are a few favorites from today:

This afternoon we have a fantastic engagement shoot with Sam and Angela in their home town of Grosse Pointe. This was our first time doing a photo shoot in the downtown area and there were lots of great places to get some cool pics. It’s always energizing to come home after a great shoot that was filled with lots of laughs and great pics!

This afternoon we took engagement portraits for Scott and Jen in downtown Rochester, MI.
We were grateful to have been able to take advantage of the incredible weather for the photo shoot. We usually only do engagement photos for couples who’s weddings we’re shooting but Scott and Jen are having a destination wedding at a resort in Mexico that force you to use the resort photographer so we were glad to be able to at least do their engagement pics.

This morning we met with Matt and Beth and did their engagement photos. Their wedding is next month and everything is coming together quickly so we were glad to have the opportunity to get together with them. Matt and Cheridy have very similar senses of humor so when the four of us got together, there were a lot of laughs!
Here’s some of the pics from today:

Dale and Emily are friends with Jeff and Erin who’s wedding we photographed last year. We remember Dale really well because he was the groomsman with a really fun and crazy personality. We were really excited when Dale and Emily hired us to do their wedding next year.
We took them to downtown Rochester for their photo shoot, here’s a few favorites from today:

This afternoon we spent a wonderful hour with Jeff and Molly doing their engagement photos. I had met Molly at the time she booked us but I had never met Jeff and neither of them had met Cheridy so it ended up being a wonderful opportunity for the four of us to get to know each other and have some fun.
We walked around downtown and took a bunch of cool pics.
Here’s some favs:

One of the funnest parts of our job is getting to know our new clients. We love meeting new people and the engagement session is a great opportunity to walk and talk and have a good time. We definitely had a lot of fun with Tom and Kristin during their engagement pics yesterday afternoon.
Here’s just a couple teaser pics from their photo shoot.

This afternoon we spent some time hanging out with Aaron and Amy doing their engagement photos. We had a good time walking around in downtown Rochester to do their pics. For our out of town clients, we do our best to schedule things so they can have their pics taken and come back later the same day to view them so they’ll be coming back in a few minutes!
