Regina, Blaise, and I met up at the Diag on U of M’s campus to photograph their e-session.  We walked around parts of campus and had a fun time shooting and it really made me think about all the sweet images we’ll be able to get on their wedding day and like always I am looking forward to it even more now.  Thanks for being so great to work with…enjoy your pics!

  • Wayne Toshikazu - Nice work, buddy. Your fave is my fave!

  • Kellie - I love the shot of them kissing under the black arches (bike rack maybe?). Great work!

  • Uncle Chuck and Aunt Kathy - We think the pics a great and are anxious to see you both.

Right now, me and my buddy Wayne Toshikazu are at Atlantis in The Bahamas to photograph the wedding of Wanda + Rourke.  Excited to photograph them and go through the pics!  I had a few blog posts I wanted to get up before I left, but didn’t get a chance because of some last minute travel crazyness.  Just wanted to let you know what’s to come when I get back…

  • sainath - aww, man! i should be there 😉 looking forward to seeing what you come back with! love the second shot above.

You might remember Kendall and Ryan from their engagement session I did with them last fall.  They are getting married at the end of the month, so a few weeks ago, we met up again for some more pics, but this time with the bright spring/summer colors.  Unfortunately the session had to be cut a little short because Ryan was having some pain in his kidneys.  You guessed it, it turned out he had three kidney stones…poor guy.  We still managed to grab some great shots before they went off to the hospital.  I know I don’t have to say it, but I am really looking forward to photographing your wedding you two!  One of the biggest things I love about Kendall and Ryan is the love that I can literally FEEL when photographing them…see if you can from the pics 😉

Brooke and Brian got married on your typical Michigan summer day…it was sunny and hott, but awesome!  It is impossible to NOT have a good time when you are with Brooke and Brian and it made the day so much fun and I really felt like I was just another member of the sweet bridal party.  Thank you so much for treating me like a close friend you two and you know I want to be hanging out with you now.  You and everyone at your wedding are why I feel so blessed to be able to do what I do 🙂
