A huge thank you to John and Barb for providing us with the perfect backdrop on their gorgeous private property (we love you guys!).

John and Kathryn are an inspiration. They have been together for 60 years and are still in love. The care they have for each other is evident in the way they support one another, touch when they laugh, kiss tenderly, hold hands like old friends, and consider the other one first. They have a lifetime of meaningful stories that they happily shared with us. They adoringly talk about their children and grandchildren and show off their pictures and achievements. Their house is full of history.

John’s favorite things about Kathryn physically are “her beautiful hair and nice figure”. We love their laugh lines. And how TALL John is. We love how gentle they are together. We adore the quiet strength John provides for Kathryn. And the openness and laughter that so easily comes out of Kathryn. At this point in their lives, they describe their relationship as relaxed but still growing. This is what we all hope and pray for.

John and Kathryn, thank you for sharing your lives with us. Thank you for the strength of your love through time. Thank you for showing us that there are some things SO worth fighting for and that real love is possible. We look forward to being married as long as you have. We hope that ours will be like yours – a story worth telling. We love you.

We are in love with Mike and Tina! We love Mike’s shy smile and his tenderness despite his obvious strength. We love Tina’s amazing eyes, blunt humor, and adoration of Mike. These two are so good together. We love that Mike describes their relationship as “bliss” and Tina says “complete.” They have tons of funny stories that kept everyone laughing. And some beautiful, touching ones as well.

Mike and Tina, we cannot wait to be with you again, friends.  We’re so blessed that you are in our lives. Thank you for trusting us with all your stories. You have a special place in our hearts. We can hardly wait for your wedding next year!

This canoe is one that has been in Mike’s family for a long time. When they suggested to do their engagement shoot with it, we thought it was perfect!

Phil and Kristin’s day was full of laughter, goofiness, great dancing couples, heartfelt hugs, tears, beautiful fall sun, funny movies on tv, frolic in the leaves, beaming parents, doodling to pass the time, funny signs, and much, much more. This day was jam packed with goodness and memories were being created all day. From the family hairstylist in the morning to the Chicken Dance at the end of the night, Phil and Kristin’s day was meaningful and brought tremendous joy.  We were so thrilled to be a part of it!

Phil and Kristin, you amaze us. We love watching you together. Thank you for letting us share in the celebration of your love.

This year for Halloween, I’m dressing up as one of my all time heroes. Steve Jobs, you will be extremely missed. You had such insight and wisdom and crazy think outside the box skills. You have given many people wings.

Oh, and one more thing…(wink, wink) have a wonderful Halloween!

There are days when you realize your life is a part of something grander than yourself. Each moment is felt as the precious living moment that it is. And you’re an intended part of the story.

Chris and Sandy’s wedding day was one of these days – a sensory feast. Every individual and detail mattered. And every piece came together to make a grander whole.

This is the story of the day that Chris and Sandy woke up surrounded by their dearest friends and family, in a white house overlooking Lake Michigan, and committed to love each other for the rest of their lives.

The couple’s family helped pull together the final details throughout the day. A friend of theirs prepared a gourmet dinner menu on site (Clark – you are a brilliant chef!) – you could smell it coming together over the course of the day.

Chris and Sandy wrote personalized love notes to each of their guests. For their guest book, they asked each guest to write a message on a piece of fabric. They plan to turn all of the messages into a quilt to use in their home.

As one of their first acts as a couple, they served dessert to their guests.

Chris and Sandy – thank you for hand-selecting us to be a part of your meaningful day. We love you and are so honored to call you friends.
