This was such a beautiful ceremony and reception. The ceremony took place at Kyper College in Grand Rapids, MI, and the reception at the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel, also in Grand Rapids. Everything - every detail was absolutely top-notch. I have wanted to blog this wedding for a long time, so here it is!
Are you getting married in 2009? If you are, here's a couple of helpful pieces of information for you.
Because we value the relationship that we build with each client, we are only accepting 20 weddings for 2009. This means, we have 20 spots available to fill, and once we sign the contracts, we won't be taking new clients for 2009 weddings. What this really means, is if you're interested in booking us, we'd love to hear from you very soon.
We've started booking 2009 weddings, and I'm really excited about the client's I've talked to so far! I'd very much love to talk to you about your wedding and learn more about what you're dreaming about :)
So, you're interested but wondering what to do? First, if you haven't already, head over to the site and check out the portfolio. You'll also get an idea of where our coverage starts. When you've done that, send me an email, or pick up the phone - I'd love to talk to you! (517.983.3052)
Once we have a chance to talk, we'll set up an appointment if you're local. Don't worry if you aren't, we'd still love to talk with you and we can work out the details. After we have a chance to talk through exactly what you're looking for, we'll put together a contract for you. A signed contract and a retainer will hold your date. At that point, congrats - you are booked!
I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon!
So here's some shots of this incredible couple! They were so much fun to shoot for their two-part engagement session. We shot part one last week at Michigan State University with their daughter Sophia, and this week we did a session with just the two of them at Hawk Island Park.
There were way too many great shots, so it was VERY hard to pick just a few for the blog! Stay tuned because I'll post a ShowIt Slideshow shortly!
As an FYI - the 17-55 went crazy on me for some reason, so most of these were shot with my 50mm f/1.4 - which is such a BEAUTIFUL lens!
Because of the number of requests I've received this year, I'm opening up a very limited amount of Senior Portrait sessions. Here's the deal:
[Contact us] ASAP to choose one of our sessions. We'll be shooting on Wednesday's, Thursday's and limited Sunday's through September.
There is a $400 $300 session fee, and you get a $250 print credit! Of course you can purchase as many prints as you need. All you need to hold your session is a $150 deposit (the balance will be due at your session).
We are limiting this to only 24 Seniors, so hurry and book your session before we sell out!
[Editors Note: This post will remain at the top so that everyone has a chance to read it. You can return to your regularly scheduled programming below!]

There are a lot more of these to come, but I wanted to share a sneak peak. This was from part one of a two part engagement session with Casey & Scott. Especially fun was that their daughter Sophia joined us, so we got some really fun images with her as well. Their wedding is in September, and it's going to be a ton of fun.
So check back next week for more of this cute couple!
