Spring | Lansing | Wedding | Navy Blush Gold

When I first met up with Gerry and Ashley to go over their contract and talk about wedding photography, we got frozen yogurt and talked about their fur baby Archer… a few weeks later they got a second puppy and Ashely sweetly kept me up to date with all of Maverick’s milestones. Getting those puppy […]

Gerry + Ashley | Lansing Spring Wedding

Whenever we photograph small, family weddings, Xavier and I often feel like we become part of the family. I’m not always sure when or how it happens, but at Ben and Megan’s wedding it happened when they asked us to sign their marriage license as the witnesses! It was such an honor to get to […]

Ben + Megan | Snowy Greenhouse Wedding

As I have been sharing on Instagram, this styled Elopement was the perfect way to expel some creative energy and get hyped for this new photo season! It came together so beautifully at the last minute thanks to my amazing team of boss babes (@MaggieGallo and @ColetteHarmon). I wanted to try to pull this off […]

The Greatest Showman Styled Elopement

Winter is usually my least creative time of year and I normally don’t do much to inspire myself to keep taking photos during the freezing months… but this year I wanted to play with my new camera and I didn’t want to wait for spring.  So, in the beginning of February, I daydreamed up a […]

New Year New Body

It was mid-June when Natalie texted me to ask about wedding photography. I was standing in the Meijer parking lot while I read her message and I squealed so loud that I scared myself and almost dropped my own phone. I knew it was going to be a special day when she said it would […]

JP + Natalie | Backyard Wedding

Have you ever had an experience that leaves you feeling overwhelmed by love and friendship? I was reminded (yet again!) how extremely thankful I am to have been a part of our wedding day. I know that sounds weird… I mean, of course Xavier and I were a part of our wedding day since it […]

Featured Wedding

When I was eight years old, my dad put me on a bus to summer camp with a Fuji Film disposable camera in my hand. He gave me two instructions: 1. Don’t take pictures too close to the subject 2. Don’t take indoor pictures I came back from camp with photos that I took inside… […]

New Photography Website

As our wedding day drifts further into the past, I am starting to realize the importance of small things. It’s crazy that we’ve been married for 89 days. It sounds like so many days… and yet, those days have been strung together into weeks and those weeks into months of work and school and a million other […]
