How do we feel about Pumpkin Spice lattes in the fall? Personally I’m more of a Caramel Apple gal, but this gorgeous dress is giving all the pumpkin spice vibes. J Costello Designs florals are the whipped cream on top. 🎃☕️🍨

A little sneak peek at Madison + Rush 🤍

This day was so special. They each brought in their family traditions through the Hindu and Christian ceremonies, honoring each other’s values and bringing their families together as one. There was so much thought put into making each part of the day feel true to them.

One of my favorite parts was seeing just how surrounded by love these two are. Their nieces, nephews, close friends, immediate families, and the people who have been part of their lives all played such a meaningful role throughout the day.

So much goodness in this one!

A few favorites here, with more from Madison + Rush in stories →

Loved getting the opportunity to capture Ayeshah & Taimoor’s portraits ahead of their big day. It was so fun capturing the love between you two! 🤍

Betsy & Alex

They met in college in 2020 while two groups of friends were “flirtatiously pushing COVID social restrictions.”

Betsy spent the morning at her childhood home, revealing her gown to her father under the magnolia tree where first dances, prom, and homecoming photos had been taken for years. She wore her late grandmother’s pearl ring and carried Alex’s great-grandmother’s embroidered hanky.

Teary-eyed smiles and nostalgia-fueled laughter ruled the day until after dinner. Then Space Cats pulled EVERYONE into the present moment with the greatest dance party in the history of dance parties.

And once again, I’m reminded that a great wedding day is the natural result of years of everyday small acts of love and sacrifice. And once again, I’m inspired by your stories.

Kirsten and Jihoon’s day started so peacefully.

As Kirsten got ready, there was worship music playing, friends and family praying together, and a really sweet sense of calm before the day “officially” got started.

As we moved throughout the day, energy and excitement built up as everyone surrounded them with love and support.

And the the reception kicked off, and that quiet morning turned into a full-blown dance party - loud music, a packed dance floor, lots of laughing, and everyone having the absolute best time.

I loved that Kirsten and Jihoon’s day held both. The quiet, meaningful moments and the big, joyful celebration. It felt so true to them.

Iconic Detroit Luxury. Every historical wedding venue deserves a getaway car to remind us that timelessness starts somewhere, and we are privileged to be part of that legacy.

Motor City Vintage Rentals | Kymberly Andren’ beautiful Packard “Hamilton” escorts Bella & Ethan as they wedded at Sweetest Heart of Mary, stopped by Albert Kahn’s Cadillac Place, then danced the night away at Henry Ford’s Lovett Hall. Somewhere in heaven, Motor City’s legends ring their own wedding bells as they celebrate with us.

Chicago brought them together, Detroit brings them home.

Jake & Ashling wanted to share a glimpse into the love story that unfolded in the Windy City — where they kept crossing paths downtown as young professionals, before realizing they both hailed from metro Detroit. The rest is history.

Walking around downtown Chicago with them, they pointed out the landmarks of their relationship, and recalled countless trips from Chicago’s Union Station back “home” to Detroit.

Netflix, your “Love in the City” documentary subjects are right here!

Wedding Guest portraits from Hannah & Alex’s wedding. This is a fabulous way to thank your guests - a little mini portrait session to commemorate the day. The wedding theme was “Summer Garden Party” and Hannah & Alex’s guests dressed to impress. ♥️

For my fellow creatives - this was a fun project, as the location was in full sun shining at a 45 degree angle on the subject - so I arranged for a 600 watt fill flash to even the broad daylight and I love the results! It delivered consistent results even with intermittent clouds and sun.
