20 Photos

 Beautiful dress and flowers

 E had seen some photos with the groom blindfolded for the first look. It was fun watching them "see" each other and E take the blind fold off of M.

 Doing a spin for M

 E really looked for photo ideas which I loved! this was one of her ideas. While we were one the beach taking photos M brother nailed these to the fence for us.

 M's new gun...he was happy to have photos done when I let him use it in some pictures.

 Beautiful bride.

 On the way back to the church to meet the bridal party we passed this field and I just had to stop!

 M's brother P wanted to pick pettles off and throw them in the air for a picture.

 Bridal party

 We got some fun shots of this.

Ruffles and Flowers

I met A when she was just a few months old. She is just a little more active now! I had so much fun trying to capture her as she ran from flower garden to trees in her back yard. She is such a sweet young lady!

Classic car and a wedding

Wendy and I got up early before E and J's wedding and traveled to their house to photograph the guys and breakfast. One of the groomsmen said we could have the Saturday off since he had instagram on his IPhone.   I have to admit some of his photos were pretty good. But I still don't want an IPhone...yet.

 E's dress was stunning. It was flowing with flowers, perfect for a summer wedding.

 Her shoes, which I loved!

Of course J had his car for a prop. I LOVE the American muscle cars and would have taken the bride and groom with the car for a six hour tour if they would have let me :)

 Bubbles...what more could you want?

 This old depot was just behind the church. I had so much fun using it as a backdrop.

 Just Married

 We did take a few along a nature trail.

 At a wedding a few years ago I did a "photo booth" well Wendy did while I photographed the reception. E and J had an actual photo booth at their wedding, and was it a hit! It was kind of like a guest book also. You went into the photo booth had four photos taken and then it printed two strips, one for an album for E and J and one for you to take home!

Thank you E and J for such a fun day!

18 Months for this little guy

Z is no longer 18 months these were taken this past spring...WOW am I behind...oh well. We are now moved into our new house and my studio is way more than I could have hoped for! 

 This kid is so awesome! I love the first photo because he's all like "auntie...really...another photo?" Well get used to it Z I will be taking photos for a long long time! The second picture just captures his smiley personality.

In November I'll be taking his 2 year photos! Wow does time fly!

Confirmation Photo

Here is the confirmation photo for this year. Anything I should change before I print?

Two years later...

R and M were best man and bridesmaid at this wedding about two years ago. R is the brother of the groom and M is the sister of the bride. At the wedding they had been dating for a month. Two years later they are engaged and the wedding is in a few weeks! 

Now as R and M are getting married they are having both their brother and sister standing for them! See you guys soon!

Summer

This summer I have been incredibly busy...five weddings in six weeks, attending school in St. Ignace, learning a new job, and now packing up our house to move. I will finally have a STUDIO! and a barn, and a pond, and a field, and birch trees. Although it will make a wonderful home I may be a little excited for the photography purposes also! Throw in confirmation photos, senior pictures and families and there has not been much time for blogging! I will attempt to post my last five weddings very soon, today I will try to put a few photos up from an engagement session I did in the first part of June.
