Jackson Wedding

Denise — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 17:27:50 +0000

Kahley and Colby were blessed by a beautiful wedding day in Jackson Michigan this past July. Storms were predicted for the day, but like Colby and Kahley themselves, it remained calm and peaceful. That is the strongest impression that I have of the two of them. They are calm, loving to one another, gentle with all they meet, pursuing peace. The First United Methodist Church in downtown Jackson was stunning with it’s huge organ and ornate wood carvings trimming both the organ and the church itself. It made such an impressive backdrop of the happy couple. After being buried (literally) in string, we hurried off to the Jackson Country Club where the true personality of the bridal party came out. What a fun bunch of friends. The guys all wore their polka dot socks and the girls all had cute sunglasses for some fun photos. One thing is for sure, these friends love having fun together! Congratulations Kahley and Colby! You two are great together.

Kaitlin and Ryan at Stuart Ave Inn

Denise — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 21:26:05 +0000

Despite the weather forecast for thunderstorms, the wedding planned at the Stuart Avenue Inn for Kaitlin and Ryan promised to be a fun and beautiful event. The gardens were blooming, accented by flowers brought in for the wedding. The Bride prepared in the upstairs room of the Inn with her vintage look to match the Victorian theme of Stuart Avenue Inn and the decor inside. I absolutely fell in love with her hairpiece, it was the perfect finishing touch. And not a drop of rain all day. Thank you Kaitlin and Ryan for being so much fun in such a beautiful place!

Grand Rapids Wedding at the BOB

Denise — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 02:10:00 +0000

There are times in your life when you know you have met some wonderful and truly special people. Stephen and Kristen are two of those people. Kristen is one of those warm, funny caring people that love to pay attention to detail and live each moment to it’s fullest. The perfect compliment for her is Stephen. He is so in love with Kristen, anything she asked for, he graciously gave. It was wonderful watching two people so in tune to each other that each one knew what would make the other one happy. It is so rare to see such caring these days. I feel so privileged to have been a part of their wonderful day. Thank you Stephen and Kristen! I wish you many years of love together!!

It’s not everyday two Brides come face to face. And it dosn’t look like this one wanted to share. Seriously, it was all in fun as the two Brides tried to take each other out.
The reception was at the BOB downtown Grand Rapids. The converted warehouse/factory was the perfect urban chic setting for just such an event.

Nick and Sandy’s Wedding at Blue Dress Barn

Denise — Mon, 31 May 2010 22:27:00 +0000

Nick and Sandy started out as High School sweethearts and are now happily married to each other. I love it when true love culminates in such a manner. The Blue Dress Barn, near St. Joseph, was the perfect location for this shabby chic event. The barn has peeling paint, yet is full of cameos of vintage country giving it an inviting and fun personality. Who knew a barn could be so beautiful? Congratulations Nick and Sandy. I hope the rest of your lives together are as bright and beautiful as your wedding day was!

Baby Ducklings are here

Denise — Fri, 14 May 2010 02:19:00 +0000

Twelve baby ducklings have arrived and are waiting for your child to be photographed with. They are so cute and tiny!! They will be living in this great new “home” when they are done being photographed. This little house that my nephew built is almost as cute as the ducklings! What a pampered life they will live.

Call the studio to set up your time to be photographed. There are still some spots open, so don’t wait, this will fill up quickly! 321-8888

Childrens Photography Promotion – Day with the Ducklings

Denise — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 15:18:00 +0000

This has got to be my favorite Kidz Dayz promotion ever! I spend all day building a “pond” in my camera room. Incredibly, it has real water, real rocks, several real plants, a real dock and best of all, real ducklings! The little baby Peking Ducks are a favorite! Cute, cuddly and lots of fun. The will dive under the water, stand on the dock, swim around in circles and sometimes climb the rocks. I don’t know who has more fun, the kids or me.

Kidz Dayz is a bi-monthly promotion we have at the studio that involves a “theme set”. Because it is only for a couple of days and we do not have to change out the set for each session, we offer reduced pricing on the photography. The sessions are only $25 and packages start at $79. It’s a great way to get cute, economical photographs of your children.

Call today to make your appointment because with a set this cute, the best times sell out first. 321-8888

Stetson Chapel Kalamazoo, MI and Rose Street Market/ wedding

Denise — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 13:18:00 +0000

What a beautiful day to have a wedding. And in such a beautiful spot. Matt and Amy prepared for the wedding at a location other than Stetson Chapel where their wedding was to take place in a few hours. As they were about to start their life together, they arrived at their wedding site…together. I think that is so symbolic, a couple enjoying one of the happiest days in their life together instead of apart from each other. Isn’t that what it’s all about anyway? The two of them, together. If I had my wedding to do over again, that is exactly what I would do. I would plan a romantic breakfast together, complete with champagne and strawberries in a secluded corner of an outdoor cafe’ where we could experience the sun breaking over the horizon together. Call me a hopeless romantic, but it’s what my heart desires. Why should a wedding day be any different.

But back to Matt and Amy…It was pure pleasure to watch them walk up together, obviously so much in love and full of excitement for the events that were about to happen. Without stepping into the Chapel, we wandered the ground and created images that captured their feeling for one another as well as documented who they were on this day in their life. Here are a few of the pages from their album that captures the experience.

Rose Street Market – what a wonderful location for a celebration. Some of the cool aspects of Rose Street is the balcony that overlooks the event, the spotlight on the bride and groom for their first dance and the marque outside with a warm congratulations to the happy couple. What great touches!

Fabulous Outdoor weddings

Denise — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 10:39:00 +0000

Brook Lodge has been a fabulous place for outdoor weddings. The grounds are just spectacular. Unfortunately, Brook Lodge has closed for this upcoming season, but who knows, maybe it will open again sometime soon. In the meantime, let’s enjoy the possibilities of outdoor weddings with these images from Brian and Jenine’s wedding from last year.
