The cutest reel for the cutest couple!!

Sometimes some of the BEST things can come out of spontaneity and diverting from plans. When we showed up to our original shoot location idea to find the road closed 2.5 hours before sunset, I decided to bounce us around to some of the less-traveled spots around Munising - and I will be forever grateful that these two trusted me and that we ended up in the most MAGICAL spots (with snow up to our thighs hahaha). I LOVE SNOWY SHOOTS and it truly just doesn’t get better than days like this 💛✨

Did I mean to share this like 2 weeks ago? Yes. But does the sentiment remain the same? YES

2022 was amazing year. Each year of course comes with its bliss and its hardships, and this year definitely had its share of both, but being able to have such amazing people as clients always feels like a ray of sunshine. Also, I got married to my best friend and had the best summer ever - idk if I’ll ever top that 🤪 (I still have to post those photos and I will ASAP)

Anyways. Love you all. Thank you so much for being here. I can’t wait to see what 2023 brings all of us ✨

Still unsure of how I came up with words to summarize how this day felt, but I finally got these two and their beautiful elopement up on my blog. They made a 3+ mile hike with all of their closest people and their wedding gear look easy, and didn’t even flinch when Mother Nature decided it was a good day for some mist - and it paid off with some of the most beautiful scenery I’ve ever seen. Congratulations to this sweet couple, link in my bio to see more from their elopement day ✨

I don’t often shoot maternity photos, but being able to witness all of the different exciting moments in people’s lives and go from shooting their engagement to their wedding to maternity is just such an amazing thing. Forever feeling lucky.

And thank you @yourevolvingadventure for sharing your amazing studio!!!

It’s been almost a year since this magical day, and now that these two souls have welcomed another onto this earth I figured it was the perfect time to finally post photos from their dreamy woodsy wedding day! Link in my bio to see more 🖤

While today was an AMAZING snowy day, I think I owe my true excitement about this season to this incredible elopement from Saturday! These two braved Michigan’s 40° weather change (🥲) and had the most beautiful, intimate snowy day in Traverse City. There is SO much more to post from this day, but here are a few favorites until then 🤍 Congratulations Ang & Tim!!!
