If you’re looking for DIY wedding detail inspiration, you’ve definitely come to the right place. Christina and Jamie’s wedding last August was jam packed with so many gorgeous handmade details. Combine these details with a gorgeous day, an outdoor wedding, an incredible couple and a fun group of family and friends, and you have one perfect wedding day. Christina and Jamie, thanks again for having me along for the fun.

The Leap Year Project

August 20, 2013

This April, Jeff and I started a project that we call our “Leap Year Project.” His birthday is on February 29, so we’re hoping to create a new video about where we are in our lives once every four years. You may have noticed that we started a year late (leap year was actually in 2012), but it ended up working out, since it gave us a chance to capture what our lives were like during the eight months we spent living in Washington, DC.

Thanks to East West Productions for turning our crazy idea into a reality.

Hanna + Maroo | Michigan State Farm Engagement Shoot

August 11, 2013

I love it when couples introduce me to new locations in town—especially locations that I absolutely know I’ll be heading back to again and again. Hanna, Maroo and I met up at the Horticultural Demonstration Gardens next to the Children’s Garden (a place I know and love), and then we headed over to Michigan State’s farms. It was an evening filled with laughter and fun.

Congratulations on your wedding, Hanna and Maroo! Thanks again for having me out.
