2015 was an amazing year. I met and photographed some incredibly amazing people.  I had the opportunity to experience some amazing wedding venues and meet the incredible wedding vendors.

I am so grateful that our brides and grooms from my 15 weddings entrusted us to capture their engagement and wedding day.   Sarah and Max‘s wedding at Sarah’s Family Home.  Kelsey and Dane’s incredibly chilly and rainy Watervale Inn Wedding (40 some degrees in May!). Joy and Steven’s wedding following a great morning at the M-22 Challenge at the Homestead and Empire Beach.  Sarah and Rick’s anniversary photos at Pt. Bestie Lighthouse during sunset in July.  Shawn and Reagan’s intimate Pt. Bestie Lighthouse wedding and Oliver Art Center Reception – where the groom’s band played the music.  Ryan and Heather‘s beautiful wedding at the Greystone Mansion with a surprise song sung by the bride’s father.  Jillian and Rob‘s intimate wedding on Torch Lake. Alyssa and Ross‘ wedding on Mackinac Island – with a fun carriage ride around the island for photos.  Kirk and Katie‘s wedding which was sidetracked by an incredible storm and loss of power.  Cy and Laura‘s wedding at the Red Shutter in Harbor Springs was an incredible destination wedding.  Jacqui and Mike‘s wedding at Cornman Farm’s.  Gina and Adam‘s wedding in Frankfort, with a surprise boat ride on Lake Michigan to the reception at the Elberta Life Saving Station.  Brooke and Brandon‘s wedding in Frankfort and reception at Crystal Mountain, which concluded with the adventure of a golf cart ride up the mountain for a late sunset.  Jay and Jaime‘s wedding at Lochenheath which had incredible food for these amazing chefs.  Nadia and Erik‘s stunning wedding and sunset at the Inn at Bay Harbor.  Paula and Jared‘s Bowers Harbor Vineyard wedding was filled with an amazing day of activities for all.  Nicole and Dave‘s wedding – which was held on our anniversary – and so much fun romping around for photos.  And finishing up with Meagan and Christian‘s at the Homestead with their surprise analogy of music and marriage.

I can’t possible express how deeply honored I am to have been trusted with these memories. I hope you images always remind you of what an incredible wedding day you each had.

Here are just a few of my favourite images from these 15 unforgettable weddings.
