I recently made it a rule not to comment to much on my blog posts. Not because of my writing skills or because there is nothing to say. But I truly believe if you are on my website {or any photographers website for that matter} you are there really for one thing…to see the images! I dont think you are on my blog to read my writings no matter how eloquent or well thought out or truthfully lovely words of wisdom so beautifully wrapped together in black type with white backing may sound….. :-) but…..
Jamie has been shooting with me for a few years and many of you XBRIDES of mine have been surrounded by her love on your day. This day was her turn and I was more than proud to be asked to photograph her memories of marrying the man she loves, Ryan.
I thought it would be great instead of me telling her story if she tells it. So from the type of Jamie:
“It was perfection. We wanted our wedding to be really personal and involve the people who were attending. We wanted a small wedding to enjoy our near and dear family and friends. Our wedding took place at my parents lake home. The details that were especially meaningful and important to me were the arbor that was made by my wonderful groom, all the homemade pies my mother baked, all the mismatch china borrowed from the guests that attended the wedding, my mother’s veil and my parent’s unity candle, the grooms great grand fathers 48 chevy and my parent’s “just married” sign they used at their wedding. Dee and her staff from Element of Elegance pulled all the details together on our day and did a fabulous job with the flowers. My uncle’s blues band, “Seventh Son” was our entertainment which was so fun and involved our older guests.
Dress: September’s Bride
Band: Seventh Son
Photobooth: Color Splash Studio
Flowers: Element of Elegance
Day of Coordination: Element of Elegance
Pies: Cindy’s Kitchen {Jamie’s Mom
I think that’s about it. I loved our wedding. Thanks for capturing it. I have a lot of photos on the wall and an album of course.”

Melissa & Todd were married at Snow Moon Ranch over the summer. A lovely setting for a Northern Michigan Wedding. Melissa’s vision was carried out by one of the best wedding planners in Michigan, Kris from Merry Makers was terrific! Snow Moon Ranch is a perfect place for the backdrop of any wedding pictures. Complete hospitality to the finest. Plus an Alpaca farm to boot! They did the most incredible thing, before the wedding as the guests were arriving they poured their own specialty drinks for each passerby. What a way to welcome your guests to your wedding!
