We are really thankful that the weather held out yesterday for Barb and Cory’s wedding. Today…the snow came down!!!

This afternoon, we did some fun photos with Brayden. This little guy has some serious energy. His t-shirt said “high energy” and that was pretty much spot on! He was EVERYWHERE. Cheridy really rocked it out by entertaining him and getting his attention.




Tonight was our first wedding of the year and things started out on a good note! Today was a day of laughter. It’s been a long time since I’ve laughed so hard. Cory and Barb are last minute kind of people. They booked us a few weeks ago and were still planning parts of the event the night before.
Not everything went smoothly but man did we ever have fun with them!!
The day started off with Cory stuck in traffic and arriving late to the hotel to get ready and then when we got there he realized that he didn’t have his cuff links, tie, matching socks, belt, ipod, or the marriage license…when he called Barb to let her know, she just laughed. Laughter was definitely the theme of the day!
After doing some getting ready photos with Barb, we drove to Cranbrook to meet Cory who had been dropped off in the wrong location so Cheridy had to drive around and try to find him. I think my favorite part about all these little things that went wrong was that…none of that mattered. Barb and Cory had so much fun today and despite planning the wedding in a super short amount of time, it came together incredibly.
The wedding was at the prestigious Knollwood Country Club in West Bloomfield, MI and we were fortunate to work with our friends Don and Joanne from Take 1 Productions. You can check out their quick trailer video here. The band tonight (The Spazmatics) totally rocked it out with jammin music and personalities as crazy as their outfits.
Here’s a few of my favorite pics from today:






We just found out that a wedding we shot last year was published in Ambassador Magazine. Ambassador magazine publishes a wedding issue once per year, so we were excited to be in it! Justine and Charlie had an amazing wedding at the Royal Park Hotel in downtown Rochester, MI. Laura Davis Events coordinated the day and we also got to work with Ryan from Epic Motion doing video along with Tiffany from Gourmet Invitations who did some of the decor design.

This afternoon we did some pics with Calli in our studio. It was the first time we got to utilize the full space. Calli has a great personality and was a lot of fun and easy to photograph. We’re looking forward to doing more senior photos for students at Rochester High School and Rochester Adams now that we’re so close to both.
