Emily & Dom: Two laid-back cats who got married on the blessed land of Mustard Seed Gardens. I swear it never rains here, but is somehow always lush and full of endlessly well-lit options for photos. Every time I shoot here I find a new backdrop or angle that reminds me how much I love this place. Anyway, these two were a joy to work with, and in the midst of the chaos going on in the world, I’m so glad they were able to make their commitment official.
Read MoreThere they were, Courtney and Cole, just having a regular, classically beautiful down-home midwest barn venue wedding, when Courtney, the queen of all things unsuspectingly stunning, unzipped her flouncy, ethereal skirt to reveal the world’s hippest jumpsuit, making her the coolest cat in all of Tipton County since the King of Cool himself, Jimmy Dean, last strolled through town. (Okay that is all especially cool because Jimmy Dean is really from Tipton County. What?! I know. Courtney, are you related?! Did I just figure this out?! Is there just something in the air there?! How’d you get so cool?! I’m not yelling— you’re yelling!)
Ahem. Excuse me.
So anyway. Courtney and Cole had a very beautiful wedding in a beautiful barn on a hot day, and I was very happy to be there shooting photos. Please enjoy.
This shoot reminded me that I truly believe everyone should get professional photos taken before they have kids— how else are we going to be able to tease our kids about how hot we were before they existed? I mean, sure we might be still pretty hot during their existence, but there’s really nothing like that full-night-of-sleep, haven’t-yet-been-pushed-to-insanity-by-my-mini-me sexiness that people have pre-parenthood.
Read MoreA midwestern summer wedding at Mustard Seed Gardens. Featuring a Canadian bride that was genuine and kind and made me want to finally just back up and head north, and a groom whose love for his family was almost visceral in how he treated them. So happy for these two and so glad to have gotten to photograph their day!
Pure Michigan lakeside MAGIC.
