I'm so crazy in love with Laurah & Jeff and their wedding. What's not to love?! They are so in love with each other, so appreciative of their friends and family, and they chose one of the most amazing locations ever. Laughter, tears, hugs, kisses, getting crazy on the dance floor… seriously, they had it all.

Even though it was rainy outside, it was still beaming sunshine and smiles inside…
The Beatles t-shirt and jeans loving “flower girl” gets a lesson in lip gloss application.


Tequila shots…. can't you just feel the bitterness of the lemon in this? HA!
The Masonic Temple in Detroit, MI is THE largest Masonic Temple in the entire world. No expense was spared on the detail and thought that went into the architecture of this over 80,000 sq. ft. building built in the 1920s. The only way to photograph the massive facade was from across the street with a fisheye lens…

The guys got ready in the Red Cross room, which has an amazing gold fresco on the wall. I think the grand chairs made the guys look pretty important too… Jeff, of course, in the middle…

This is probably one of my favorite dress shots ever… reflected in the mirror…

I don't know why things in place of faces makes me chuckle, it just does…

Laurah cracks me up!! She was trying to figure out how she was going to get her crinoline into her dress if she was going to step into the dress… thankfully she realized that she could just put it on over her head! ![]()

Oh the things that bridesmaids do for the bride….

I think I have a thing for clocks…

Check out their burgundy and orange details- like a vibrant tiger lily…

Would you believe they call this room an Asylum?? Simply gorgeous…

Immediately after the ceremony, the bride & groom took the elevator down to see the Crystal Ballroom set up before any of the guests got in the room. They had an amazing first dance alone together and they had me in tears the entire time!!

After a few portraits around the building, they were ready to get their groove on!!

This is what I love about these families… one moment is completely ridiculous and the next is raw emotion…


Abandoned shoes on the dance floor…. I have a thing about abandoned shoes too…

I love it when a groom can tear up the dance floor!! Go Jeff, go Jeff, go, go, go Jeff…

I love both of these images so much, and once again… they happened only seconds apart… pure romance, and pure joy… what an amazing way to end an amazing evening…


Laurah & Jeff, I already said it, but I love you to pieces and I'm so so so honored that you chose me as your wedding photographer!! Thank you so much for your graciousness- you really helped give me strength when I needed it!! I can only hope I did justice to the beautiful moments of your wedding day!!

You’re such a great story teller, in both words and images! And how I love the fisheye lens shot.
