Michelle and Ryan have a great chemistry. Ryan has a great sense of humor and Michelle is as sweet as they come, making them a joy to be around. I had a wonderful time with them, their family and friends who are such a kind and fun group of people. This was also my first visit to Boulder Pointe which was absolutely beautiful. Due to the high winds we didn’t get to venture out onto the course as far as I had hoped to but we did seek refuge in a tunnel that provided an awesome setting for cool shots!

A Little Bit-o-History

We happened upon a great deal on a hotel at Colonial Williamsburg sort of last minute and decided it would be a neat experience four our son. Expose him to a bit of history that he may actually retain, so to speak. Three of the hotel’s four stars were tarnished (quite the dive) but it turned out to be an awesome trip anyway. With milder than usual temps in the 40s and rain we dubbed this a theme weekend and the theme was “Old and Cold”. :)

An example of how a musket was loaded and fired was a huge hit!

I sense he may have a little Captain in him – makes us look like great parents, doesn’t it? Ugh!

Bree Anne and Ryan selected Henry Ford Museum as the perfect backdrop for their dream wedding not only for it’s well known beauty, charm, and history; it also holds special meaning to them as Ryan, a grad from Detroit’s College for Creative Studies, is a car designer for Ford Motor Co. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed my time with them, their awesome bridal party, and their families. I only wish I had more time (though I could spend weeks in this place and never shoot the same thing twice)! Thank you for allowing me to be part of such an amazing experience!

Diane and Brett are an amazingly sweet and kind couple. I didn’t have the pleasure of meeting Brett before the wedding since he lived out of state so I was looking forward to seeing these two together for the first time; what a perfect pair they are. Although Mother Nature was in the middle of a crying jag that day, the rain didn’t seem to bother them in the least. They were just so thrilled to be married and surrounded by those they love.
