2010 was an amazing year for us and I put together a collection of images shot throughout the year that includes photos and paintings from weddings, landscapes, babies, high school seniors, etc.
These images were created through a lot of hard work, but we feel blessed to have been a part of all these things and hope you enjoy this video slideshow.
Yesterday morning we met up with Jim and Beth to do engagement photos. It was bitter cold; 20 degrees, 5 degrees when you count the wind!!
They were troopers and even had their jackets off for most of the photos…not bad for people from Washington state where it’s never this cold outside!
Last week we took some stylish urban engagement photos for Brandon & Sarah at their home in Birmingham, MI as well as in the downtown area nearby. Sarah had the fun creative idea to get some 1950′s style shots of the two of them at the dining room table with Brandon reading the newspaper and Sarah serving up a perfect apple pie! What great style this couple has! Photographing their 2011 wedding should be just as memorable.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Ben and Jen from Grosse Pointe, MI to capture some artistic and fun engagement photos in the downtown Birmingham area. The weather was downright cold but these two had sunny smiles and personalities! The friendly couple laughed and smiled as they garnered a bit of attention from passerby during the shoot. More good times are promised when we photograph their 2011 wedding!
A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of working with Steve & Julie to get some great outdoor engagement photos in the metro detroit area. Their super friendly and laid back personalities made the shoot easy and fun. They were even up for some silly hat photos. Love the moose! We eagerly await photographing their wedding next fall.
Our festive outdoor autumn engagement picture shoot for Peter and Erica from Troy, MI was done on an extremely windy day at Meadowbrook mansion. Peter and Erica were laid back about the troublesome weather, but we ultimately decided to meet up a few days later for a re-shoot. Just as we started the re-shoot, more issues were afoot; the police and fire department arrived on the scene! Due to an alarm going off, we could not shoot near the building! With plenty of other great settings it was no problem finding alternate areas of interest. Peter and Erica are really friendly and easy to work with so we’re glad we could finally capture some awesome shots for them. We are happy to be photographing their September 2011 wedding as well!!
Our outdoor engagement picture shoot with Brandon and Adrianne last week took place on the beautiful grounds of Cranbrook in Michigan. Adrianne has an art degree and wanted to capture the creative and stunning architecture, statues, and gardens of the location, and we happily agreed. It was great working with these two, they both have lighthearted and cheerful demeanors that made the shoot a breeze! We look forward to shooting their wedding next November.
The fall colors were beautifully in bloom at our Auburn Hills Michigan location for Adam and Meghan’s outdoor engagement photo shoot. They had an easy affection toward one another and were really friendly and easy to work with. When the weather took a turn for the worse with some scattered showers we ducked into a local coffee shop and got amazing hot chocolate. Yum!
We recently did fun autumn engagement photography for Adam & Teressa from Troy, MI. Their fun, lighthearted, and dynamic personalities made the shoot really enjoyable. The Rochester area offers a great mix of urban downtown scenery alongside nature, parks and Paint Creek so we were able to capture a wide range of styles for these two. We look forward to more laughs and jokes while photographing their wedding next spring!
We went to Rochester Park in MI for our unique fall color engagement shoot with Dhiren and Christina, a very friendly and relaxed couple, whose wedding we will be photographing next June. The weather was perfect and the scent of leaves all around had us talking about local cider mills and festivities. Dhiren and Christina were so thoughtful that they brought us cider and doughnuts when we met up later at their viewing session! We love this season! Thanks again guys!
The weather was cool yet sunny today for Cole & Alisz’s outdoor fall engagement shoot in downtown Rochester, Michigan. It was great to capture the changing color of the leaves amid the urban scenery. Cole and Alisz were super easy to photograph, very relaxed and natural. Cole is a Navy pilot and was temporarily back in town…no wonder their chemistry was palpable!
Our recent outdoor engagement photo shoot with Brian and Shayna in the Village went off without a hitch, the weather was perfect. They are a really sweet couple and kind people too. We look forward to their June 2011 wedding!
