longest post of my life!

And it's so long that there's going to be a part two!


Aubrey's sister Molly did her hair and makeup...she did SUCH A GREAT JOB!!!








I loved all the crazy wallpaper in the B&B!



I love this shot of Ryan's Grandpa just hanging out!


Ryan and Aubrey seeing each other for the first time.


One of my favs!


My wonderful husband was my assistant! He did such a GREAT job! This is the shot he got of Ryan and Aubs seeing each other. LOVE IT!


They exchanged gifts to one another.


I thought Ryan's gift was so thoughtful. He got Aubs some engraved wineglasses and then two bottles of wine...one to open on their 5 year...and the other for their 10th! Awe!
























Another shot of Brian's...maybe one of my favorite shots!





FAVORITE!!!!! Aubs is HOT!



I was so honored when my friends, Aubrey and Ryan, asked me to shoot their wedding! I knew it would be an incredible day, not only because of the thought and details that would go into it, but because it was one of my dearest friend's wedding!!
Ryan and Aubrey really wanted to do a destination wedding in Ireland, but for many reasons were not able to. They definitely picked the closest place to it, Charleviox, MI. If you've ever been up to Northern Michigan, you understand how beautiful it is up there! AMAZING!
This was definitely a dream wedding for me as a photographer! Aubrey and Ryan not only did all their pictures before the ceremony, but gave me about three hours to take them! How much fun is that!?!?! We went all over the cute little B&B we were staying at, to the boat marina, and then to the beach! I think it was all worth it!
Thanks again for having me as your photographer! Love you guys!

This is one of the most beautiful weddings I have seen. You did an amazing job of capturing every aspect of the event. Aubrey made an amazing bride and Ryan compliments her very well. What a great looking couple!

I wish all clients gave us 3 hours to shoot the B&G every wedding. You lucky!

Hope to see you soon.
