Everything about Mariah and Josh’s wedding was absolutely gorgeous. Also, I’m just going to put it out there….. I personally think September is the absolutely IDEAL month to hold a wedding in Michigan. The temperature is usually perfect, the skies are usually beautiful, and all of the summer flowers tend to still be in bloom. […]

Verdonis/Harris Catering and Event Center Wedding – Muskegon, Michigan – September 28, 2019

I always love getting the opportunity to photograph weddings right here in the city where I live. Our city has a lot of nice areas by the water, and an up and a growing downtown. There’s a reason our motto here is #watchusgo ! It is only getting better! We started out the day with […]

Ballroom at Frauenthal Theater Wedding – June 22, 2019 – Muskegon, Michigan Wedding Photographer

Katelyn and Kyle celebrated their wedding at St. Barts in Newaygo, as they had a connection to that particular church, but Muskegon offered more wedding venue options, so the celebration was held in both Newaygo and Muskegon. We started off the day at Shoreline Inn, where Katelyn got ready with her ladies, and then made […]

Late Fall Wedding at St. Bartholemew Catholic Church in Newaygo and Watermark 920 in Muskegon, Michigan – November 10, 2018

Not everyone needs to have all-day wedding coverage, as elopements and smaller weddings continue to be the right choice for many couples. This particular wedding took place on a Sunday, when I’m not typically as busy, so I was able to provide them with a short, 3 hour package, which was more than enough to […]

Buzz’s Lakeside Inn Intimate Wedding on White Lake – Whitehall, MI – 09/17/2017

You may or may not know that my business is actually located in Muskegon, Michigan, but my weddings wind up being all over the state! So, I’m always thrilled when someone from the area asks me to photograph their wedding in Downtown Muskegon, since I’m only about 10 minutes from there! When Casey contacted me […]

Century Club Wedding in Muskegon, Michigan – May 23, 2018

This past April I had the pleasure of photographing Carly and Jeff’s wedding at Stonebridge Golf Course in Ann Arbor, Michigan. We were able to package photography services with a popular Muskegon-based cover band, Refurbushed, for entertainment, and work together to provide both photography and entertainment. It is always a bit chilly in April in […]

Stonebridge Golf Course Wedding – Ann Arbor, MI – April 21, 2018

Until you get married, you probably haven’t had to hire a photographer, at least not beyond senior photos.  You’ve never had to hire a caterer, DJ or band, florist, or have fancy invitations made.  A wedding is probably the biggest party most people ever throw in their life (at least if they aren’t eloping) so […]

Questions to ask your potential wedding photographer

This engagement session took place at one of my favorite places to photograph in the city.  I’m not naming names, but if you live in the area, you probably know where this is.  The area is full of ornate old buildings, streams, bridges, and meadows where the sun throws off gorgeous rays through the trees […]

Jessica and Craig’s Late Summer Engagement Session in Grand Rapids, Michigan

For this wedding, I travelled all the way to the other side of the state, south of Detroit, to Trenton.  At times during the day, we were worried that rain might ruin the outdoor ceremony, but thankfully it held off and we were not only able to explore the park for bridal party photos, but […]

Liza and Mark’s wedding at Chateau on the River in Elizabeth Park – Trenton, MI

I met up with Sarah and Tim last fall to do their engagement photos and loved working with them!  They wanted a session with some fall color in it so I took them out to a couple of my favorite parks in the area to stroll around, get to know them, and get the some […]
