Engagement

Even a stormy afternoon can be beautiful for a Michigan lakeside engagement shoot at the beaches in Holland. The moody clouds and wavy lakeshore provided the perfect blue-grey backdrop to contrast the bright joy and love that Alexis and Jacob have for each other. We had been watching the weather all day with our fingers […]

We love our job. As Michigan wedding photographers, not only we do we get to create beautiful works of art but we get to meet with so many amazing couples. Couples that we might not otherwise have the opportunity to meet. Before we became wedding photographers, we used to think that we were kind of […]

It’s always exciting to scout new locations for engagement sessions and Hemlock Crossing in West Olive did not disappoint. It was full of wildflowers and numerous overlooks offer scenic views of the river, wetlands, natural springs, and woods. There are so many good spots at Hemlock Crossing, the trouble was picking our favorite place to […]

We love to photograph engagement sessions downtown Grand Rapids. The architecture is really beautiful and there are so many great spots in close proximity to each other. We love it so much, we actually did some of our own engagement photos downtown Grand Rapids. There is a small loop of about 4 locations that we […]

One reason why we love to shoot Michigan Lakeshore engagement sessions is because the sun sets over the lake. Imagine if we lived in Wisconsin on the other side of the lake? Yes, the view would be beautiful in the morning but we would have to shoot sunrise engagement sessions to get the same effect. […]

It has been a long time since we shot a Millennium Park engagement session! But it’s one of our favorite spots in Grand Rapids, Michigan because there is such a variety of places to shoot. There are plenty of wooded areas for the dreamy, romantic forest look. There is a beautiful pavilion with white stone […]

Every bride and groom we meet touches our lives in a small way. When we become their wedding photographers, we become a part of their journey through life together. We become a small part of their love story and a major part of their wedding day. Our worlds come together for a brief period of […]

Every engagement session we shoot is meaningful to us. We love to watch our couples interact, often for the first time, in front of our cameras. We get to see how much they love each other, all giggles and smiles. One of our favorite things about our bride and groom’s engagement session is the location. […]
