Engagement Photo Sessions

Engagement Session Promo Video

 

A sample engagement session shot on the campus of Michigan State University with Amanda and Ronnie.  The intent of this video is to give you an idea of how I work during an engagement session. Every wedding package includes an engagement session in order to give us an opportunity to get to know each other and to prepare for photography on the wedding day.

Special thanks to Andy Owen of Owen Video for producing the video.  He’s an amazingly talented wedding videographer and a pleasure to work with.

Megan and Adrian Engagements – Big Rapids Michigan

Adrian had a week to learn it. One week to learn the chords. One week to learn the lyrics. One week to practice the guitar and sing the song at the same time. One week before he would nervously give her a ring after playing the song Marry Me by Train. Megan said yes.

Adrian and Megan met on the campus of Ferris State University in Big Rapids Michigan so naturally that is where we traveled to photograph their engagement session. Time flew by as we were taking photos and I really enjoyed getting to know these two wonderful people. I smiled behind the camera a lot.  :)  Their love for each other was absolutely beautiful and I’m really looking forward to their wedding next year.

Laura and Josh Engaged – Hillsdale Michigan

Recently I met Josh and Laura at Josh’s family cottage in Hillsdale Michigan for their engagement session. We walked and talked and had a great time getting to know each other. We occasionally took some pictures too. Laura is a cardiology nurse and Josh is finishing up school for orthodontics. Their love story began at the University of Michigan so we had to get some captures with their Wolverine wear.  As the sun set we took a boat ride to the other side of the lake and watched these fabulous orange streaks form in the skyline. Josh and Laura it was a pleasure to meet you and I’m looking forward to your wedding day.

Kara and John Engagement – Lake Orion Michigan

Had a great evening boating with Kara and John last night.  We could not have picked a better day.  The temperature was perfect, the sun was setting beautifully, and the wind was calm.  Beautiful for a boat ride around Lake Orion. We stopped on the Lake Orion Boat Club island for a couple portraits as well.
