Kenny and Aubrey’s wedding was filled with emotions! Xav doesn’t cry much but we were all getting misty eyed during the first look as Kenny and Aubrey read letters and promises to each other. It was so beautiful! Kenny is a big fan of Alabama and making his own poses… see if you can tell […]
I met up with Logan, Abby, and their pup, Remi, at Michigan State University for their engagement session. Even though they were packing to move, Logan and Abby made time for their session and I’m so thankful that they did! As soon as we started shooting, I could tell that they were so comfortable with […]
Andrew and Courtney went to school in Grand Blanc where Xavier grew up and they were freshmen the year Xav was a senior! We actually found their adorable school pictures in Xav’s yearbook! At the reception, I got to sit with the girl who set up Andrew and Courtney on their first “date”. Seeing their […]
One of my goals while I was in New Mexico was to do a couples session. Xav and took a ton of walks and the scenery was so breathtaking that I kept dreaming about shooting in it! Finally, I decided to see if I could find a couple on Instagram and I ran across Katie […]

It is extra special when the bride is a […]
Three years ago, I blogged about some of our favorite and cheap date nights. Living out of an Airbnb for the past several weeks has changed our date routine quite a bit. Besides hiking and the zoo, here are our current favorite things to do for date night. 1. Ice cream. It probably doesn’t need […]
As we await winter placements, putting together our nursery has been a work in progress. We have been so blessed by people who have offered resources, given generous and thoughtful gifts, and even searched out and delivered a dresser to us! I thought it would be fun to show a little preview of everything all […]
In the summer, Xav and I spend almost all of our weekend time outside. This is especially true on wedding weekends! We started shooting primarily outdoor, summer weddings after our own backyard wedding in 2015. Getting married outside is a connection that we can instantly appreciate and relate to! While backyard weddings, like our own, […]
