This was definitely my coldest shoot to date, but John and Kristin were such troopers! I was home in Michigan for Christmas so we did the e-session in good old downtown Jackson! Old towns normally make for great backdrops...so I was actually pretty excited about shooting there.
I've known Kristin since high school and before I went to college we were extremely close. I couldn't be more happy for her!! John is so incredibly nice and is such a gentleman! She's a lucky girl!! I can't wait for their wedding in April!
Congratulations!!!!

ben & melissa...married!!!














































So I have to start off by saying that Melissa is one of the most SHOCKINGLY BEAUTIFUL brides I have EVER seen! She was breath taking!!! And the best part about her is she is 10 times more beautiful on the inside. Ben is equally wonderful and is going to be an incredible husband!!!
Their wedding was in Spring Arbor, Michigan at Spring Arbor Free Methodist Church and their reception was at the Jackson Country Club...same place I'm from and same church that I got married in...and...same reception hall...it definitely took me back to when I got married.
My sister-in-law Meghan was visiting from Colorado and was able to help me out that day. She has recently started her own photography business and did a fabulous job assisting!
Congratulations Ben and Melissa!!!
