Lee & Steve from Texas

This weekend I had the pleasure of photographing Lee and Steve.  The couple is from San Antonio Texas and their family owns a beautiful golf course in Freeland Michigan, The Bayou, where they had their wedding.   They were a great couple and wanted some creative wedding work done.  The weather was questionable but ended up holding out for them.  Here is one shot that show them enjoying a romantic moment on the 5th green shortly after the wedding vows.

Indiana Wedding - Stephanie and Michael

I had the pleasure of traveling to Indiana this weekend to photograph Stephanie and Michael.  The wedding was in Goshen, Indiana which was a great town.  I went to college in Marion,  Indiana and truly enjoy Indiana.  I have always found the people of Indiana to be open and friendly. This trip to Goshen only confirmed this.

Stephanie and Mike are great people and have tons of friends.  I had the pleasure of spending the day with them and photographing everything from getting ready to a late night party.  It was a great day with lots of great people.  The town of Goshen gave us lots of nice backdrops for photos.  We were able to take some creative wedding party photos at the Goshen College, a place where the couple met.   This photo was from the visit to the dam where they were engaged.  These stairs walked down to a very small dock where they love to hang out.

I wanted to share this photo showing that even a small set of old stairs is a non-wedding type of location.  I say non-wedding because it was not indoors and there were five fisherman who were polite enough to step aside while we took a few photos.  (I am telling you people from Indiana are great!)  

Wedding - On the Beach

Well, I think it is time to share a few wedding photos.  Let me start with one photo from last weekends wedding.  I had the pleasure of photographing Bruco, above, and his bride Melanie.  I will share more later but wanted to show you that it is possible to take a great photo of the men.  Too many times wedding photographers spend all the time trying to take photos of the bride and forget the groom.  Here is the groom, Bruco, and his group of groomsmen.  It was a great wedding on the beach with the beautiful setting of Lake Michigan in the background.  The wedding was in South Haven Michigan.
