      Last Saturday, I met up with Lesley and Ben to do their engagement session.  They were in town from Cincinnati doing a whole bunch of wedding stuff, since their wedding is here in Ann Arbor next May.  It was nice to see them again and more importantly get to know them better.  We had a relaxed, fun time walking around downtown Ann Arbor stopping by many of the uber popular places to photograph.  I got a good look at the rock on Lesley’s finger and all I can say, is, “Good job Ben!!!”  All in all it was a fun evening and naturally I am looking forward to this rivalry of a wedding…Lesley is an Ohio State girl and Ben is a Michigan boy.  Go Buckerines!

 

Who doesn’t love a sweet door?

I swear I did not do a thing to her eyes!  This is what ‘serious’ looks like!

Definitely not in Buckeye country…

Splish! Splash!

“And remember, BEE yourself!”  Movie anyone?

Love these moments…

Love it!

KUH-YOU-TT!

Laura, Dave and I started out at the University of Michigan Golf Course.  Dave and Laura both enjoy golfing and Dave really enjoys golfing…like many of my family members and others worldwide.  This was my first time even stepping foot on the U of M golf course.  It was so gorgeous and the light that day was beautiful as well.  The golf course has it’s own huge block right outside downtown and I had no idea that it could provide such scenic views and make you feel like you’re not in a city.  We grabbed a few shots there, before heading downtown and walking around and checking out some nostalgic places for Laura.  I got a chance to find out more details about their August wedding and I’m so much more excited now…they have a lot of really cool, uniques things planned, that will definitely make it stand out as a day to remember for all people attending.  On with the pics!!!

 

This evening I met up with Molly and Jon to do their engagement session.  Molly and Jon are my other June 21st couple.  We met at Timbertown in Chelsea with their 8 month old daughter Samantha (what a QT) for a few family pics.  We then made our way to downtown Chelsea by the Train Depot before heading to Molly’s parents house, out of town a few miles.  We got there right when Mr. Goldensun was peaking his head out.  We made good use of the light as well as the beautiful land on which Molly’s parents are plotted.  I chatted with Molly’s parents on their deck that over looks the gorgeous landscape…it was a lovely evening and I’m geeked for their wedding!

I had a fun engagement session tonight with one of my July couples, Jessica and Chris.  We started off at Pinball Pete’s, then ventured through the Diag to Starbucks.  It was nice chatting with the two of them and it really makes me look forward to their big day.  Jessica told me they invited 300 people.  I couldn’t help but laugh, I mean that’s a lot of people!  It’s going to be a blast, I can tell.  All in all, it was a relaxed and fun shoot.  I had a great time with the two of you and can’t wait to capture your wedding day!  Thanks for being so great!

 

I think you’re supposed to look at the screen when you are trying to shoot things…

Piggyback anyone?

Loungin’ on the lawn…

They’re a pretty skinny couple I guess…

A little rockin’ out is good for the soul!

LOVE this one!!!

They are a great looking couple and both have killer eyes!

They’re ready for some good ol’ chicken…

Cute!

A little rooftop view to enjoy the sweet sun…

And they lived happily ever after…
