Michigan Courthouse Wedding Photographer

I had so much fun being able to capture this day for this lovely couple! As a Michigan Courthouse Wedding Photographer, I love being a part of such an important day for all my clients. We had a beautiful day for this wedding! It wasn’t too cold and we were even able to get some photos outside! My job really has enabled me to meet so many wonderful people and be a part of so many special days in the lives of clients. It’s probably one of the best parts about my job-capturing priceless moments for clients to remember forever.

Hiring a Courthouse Wedding Photographer

Many people are unsure if they should hire a wedding photographer for their courthouse wedding. I will always give them the same answer. You can’t ever go wrong hiring a professional to capture an important day! Moments are fleeting, and time passes by so quickly. Oftentimes all we have from the special times in our lives are only photographs! This will give you freedom to enjoy your day and know that your photographer will have it covered. Sometimes, you will even miss things that you will discover your photographer captured later!

I had a wonderful time capturing this day. There were so many favorites and it was certainly hard to narrow down for their sneak peek! I have posted a few of my favorites below! I’m looking forward to editing the rest of their images!

It was a treat to be able to go to the south to photograph this wedding! I was able to get out of the snow and the -10 degree weather in Michigan. I have known Ryan for almost a decade, so it was wonderful to be able to capture his special day for him. Although we were hoping for warm weather, it was in the 20s and freezing! The bride was such a trooper for the outside photo we captured! It was so much fun to be the photographer for Pensacola Florida Wedding Photography!

They picked the perfect day for a wedding-the first day of 2018! It was such a fun day and a great way to start the year! The ceremony was so beautiful. I loved being able to see the love and support from their families. There were so many beautiful locations to photograph the bride and groom in, too! We had the perfect lighting and I had so many favorites!

The reception was so beautifully decorated. It’s always fun when there are lots of people dancing! Medina and Ryan’s wedding reception was in the Gift Horse Restaurant. Everything was perfect!

It was hard to narrow down for their sneak peek! I’d definitely have to say my favorite was photographing the new bride and groom with the 1963 Chevy Impala! I wish Medina and Ryan the best and many happy years together! I hope you can enjoy this sneak peek as much as I did editing it!

It was the perfect day in June for Emily and Weston’s wedding. We started the day with the beautiful Bride getting ready. I always photograph a bride getting ready. Because wedding days always go by so fast, the little details are just as important to photograph. Later, as the ceremony began, Emily walked down the aisle in her stunning dress. I caught Weston’s reaction. There is nothing more inspiring than a Groom who shows his love for his Bride.

It wouldn’t be a summer day in Michigan if we didn’t have a random rainstorm. You never know what is going to happen! Thankfully it cleared up by the reception and gave us gorgeous skies! We were finally able to do some fun shots with the bride, groom, and the rest of the wedding party.

The reception was stunning and beautiful! I loved capturing the moments shared between Weston and Emily for their first dance. I especially enjoyed capturing the love between the couple, and the first few moments they shared together as a husband and wife. One of my favorite things about being a wedding photographer is how fast paced they are. You are always on your toes! You have to be quick at not only taking the photos, but being creative while doing so! The fact that I have known the Groom for well over a decade made it even more special. I especially love photographing the weddings of friends!

It was certainly a wonderful day filled with fun people, and great food! If you’d like to see Emily and Weston’s engagement session, click on this link!

Emily and Weston, I wish you guys the best and many full years as man and wife. But most of all, I wish your lives to be shared in love. Love never fails! Thank you for allowing me to capture your beautiful Michigan wedding!

I had such a great time with this couple for their engagement session. The soon to be groom and I go way back, I’ve known him for over a decade! He was the best man at our wedding. It’s so awesome to see him now getting ready to take the plunge into the wonderful world of marriage 🙂 We had a crazy, warm, 40 degree day (In February, in MICHIGAN!!) The weather so perfect for our session, and I got so many fun shots!

Tips for Your Michigan Engagement Session

Here are a few tips for booking an engagement photographer. First, since weather in Michigan is so unpredictable, it’s good to have your engagement session done as early as late spring. The latest I recommend is early Fall because it could be snowing in both Spring and Fall. Second, I recommend bringing a few outfits to your session. It adds variety and when you hang up your photos, it will look like you had more than one session done! Another great tip I always tell clients is to be sure your outfits coordinate-and never to wear the same clothes-otherwise you look like Target employees 🙂 Lastly, have fun! Being carefree and full of excitement for your upcoming day will show in your photos!

Here are a few of my favorites from our session. I can’t wait to photograph their wedding in a few short months 🙂

I’ve known the bride, Jen, for years. It was such an honor to be asked to photograph her wedding! Rain was on the forecast all week, but we got lucky and it was a beautiful, cloudy day. (Dream weather for photographers!) We started the day out at Saint Andrews on Wayne State University for their wedding ceremony. It was a beautiful church with amazing stain glass windows! We were able to travel all over Detroit to get their formals, too! Then we ended the day at their reception, which was at King’s Court Castle at Canterbury Village. It is a beautiful venue, with lots of historic and beautiful architecture. I always love wedding receptions because of how much fun they are. Unfortunately, Jen’s father passed away a few years ago. But one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen, is that during Jen’s dance with her mother, a rainbow appeared. I know it’s just the way lighting works, but I use off camera flash at every wedding reception I photograph and it’s never appeared before-it was amazing! Here are a few of my favorites from Jen and Calvin’s wedding day-hope you enjoy!
