I headed to Chicago a couple of weeks ago to meet up with Caitlin and Andrew for their engagement session. As we drove into the city from Michigan it rained and poured and most of the morning downtown continued to be wet. Miraculously, the clouds parted just as our session began and we even got a small, beautiful sunset that evening! Both Caitlin and Andrew were such great sports, and just so photogenic and fun! We are so excited for their Northport, Michigan wedding next year and can't wait for you to see their stunning e-session images! We started at the riverwalk, swung through their neighborhood and ended at Lincoln Park to catch the sunset and the city as it lit up and headed into dusk.

Working in northern Michigan is always so sweet! It doesn't hurt that it is one of my very favorite places on Earth, but then add to that one very special couple and well, I was in heaven! This gorgeous wedding took place at Cathedral Barn, a newer venue in Traverse City. Hannah and Connor were so incredibly humble and grateful and really just full of the deepest kind of love for one another. Please let me tell you about how amazing their vows were--I usually always tear up during this part of a wedding but I was legitimately silent sobbing through the entire thing. I was just so honored to be a part of their day in so many ways.  I was completely taken with the perfect fall color palette and the hops boutonnieres; the details were so perfect! Another really excited part of this couples wedding was that we got to try out hand at a short, cinematic trailer (found at the very bottom of this post) and we are so thrilled to be offering this to clients in 2017!  Enjoy some favorites and congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Sweeney! 

Last month we traveled to Carmel-by-the-sea, California and saw our best friends wed at Holman Ranch. We had an absolute blast exploring the local town and scenery. Carmel, California is so beautiful and film captured this golden sun-filled state so perfectly! Enjoy!
