Amanda + Mike: Central United Methodist Church and Lansing Center Wedding

Amanda and Mike had the perfect downtown Lansing wedding. Everything was within walking distance—we started at the Radisson, went a few blocks east to the gorgeous Central United Methodist Church for the ceremony, crossed the street to the capitol building for photos, then headed west to the Lansing Center to celebrate at the reception. Thanks for a fun day, Amanda and Mike! And thanks giving me wildly photogenic (not to mention extremely warm and welcoming) friends and family to photograph all day.

Props to Knockout Agency for doing an awesome job with hair and makeup.

Malia: Senior Photos on Michigan State’s Campus

I met Malia’s brother, Cheyenne, and mom, Shari, back in 2011 when I photographed Cheyenne’s senior photos. This time it was Malia’s turn, and I was lucky enough to have her big brother and mom come along to catch up and help out around MSU’s campus.

Patricia+Bryan: Detroit Masonic Temple Wedding

Patricia and I met in college when we were assigned to the same apartment in Rome during our study abroad trip. We sealed our international travel buddy status in 2010 when she made the trip to Mexico to be a part of my wedding, and I was so honored to be a part of her wedding with Bryan at the Masonic Temple in Detroit this summer.

Patricia and Bryan met as event planners in the Detroit area, and their experience (and attention to detail) definitely shined through at their own big event.

Thanks to Derek for second shooting with me—Derek did an amazing job capturing the men getting ready, along with the incredible details at the reception.

Be sure to check the end of this post for the list of vendors that Patricia and Bryan worked with.

What was your most memorable moment of the day? From Patricia: “The Ceremony—the walk down the aisle. I knew all eyes were on me when I walked, but the only eyes I could see were Bryan’s at the end of the aisle. Just before the doors opened, I was so overwhelmed with nerves, but the second I tunnel-visioned onto Bryan, it was like everything else disappeared.”
