Wellers Carriage House | Saline Wedding Photographer

Do you remember the adorable couple from last fall with the super cute puppy? (jog your memory here) Well, they finally got hitched!! Katie and Doug had the perfect mix of elegant and DIY elements for their Wellers Carriage House wedding. As their Saline wedding photographer, I loved seeing all the personal touches that Katie and Doug snuck in like their flower girl dresses and their wedding cake. Maybe I should say cakes, Katie made each table their very own cake based on their RSVP response. Our table said “Surprise!” and I was really excited to find out that we got strawberry cake which was positively scrumptious!

Wellers Carriage House

They have an absolutely gorgeous set up there. Katie and Doug used their pergola set along side the Saline River as their ceremony location. Wellers also offers an off-site house for getting ready. It’s nearby too which makes things easy as far as travel time. Wellers Carriage House has a few different rooms to hold your reception in, Katie and Doug chose the River Raisin room. It has stunning old stonework and a very romantic feel to it.

Chad & Emily | Laingsburg Wedding

When I met up with Emily to grab a coffee and discuss her fall Laingsburg wedding, we hit it off right away. One of the first things she asked was if I had any issue with their dog being in some of the family photos. Of course not! Pets are part family after all right?!…
Maumee Wedding | Brittany & James

Some weddings stick with you long after the last song has played. Brittany and Jimmy’s Maumee wedding was exactly that. As a referral from a longtime friend of mine, I had the pleasure of meeting them in Brighton to discuss their day. It wasn’t long before we were laughing and swapping stories. Brittany hinted at…
Fort Pontchartrain Wedding | Melissa & Steve

Some weddings are extra special, not just because of the love shared between the couple, but because of the personal connections involved. Melissa and I were great friends in high school—we both played the clarinet in band and stayed in touch online after graduation. When she reached out to see if I could photograph her…
How to Plan a Stunning Michigan Micro Wedding

Even 5 years later, we are still seeing the impact that COVID has had on our lives, and no industry has been left untouched. In 2020, COVID redefined how couples choose to get married. Small intimate weddings, also called micro weddings, grew exponentially in popularity. Couples hosting smaller weddings have obviously been around for quite…
Jackson Country Club Wedding | Eric & Molly

Being an assistant photographer (or “second shooter” as most photographers call it), is awesome! I still get to do the thing I love, photograph weddings, but I get a little more artistic freedom. While the lead photographer is focused on the must-have images, I can play around with different angles, new lighting, and things that…
Metamora Wedding | Shay & Kyle

Shay and Kyle’s Metamora Wedding was the perfect reflection of their love—joyful, relaxed, and full of meaningful moments. Their property, surrounded by rolling Michigan hills, created the dreamiest backdrop for the day. The heat was no surprise. Every time we’ve worked together (remember their engagement session?) it’s been muggy, and this day was no exception….
