i had the pleasure of shooting these 4 sisters when i was in michigan last week. what a sweet group of girls!!
we had a couple hours to walk around Michigan State University and we came up with some really cool locations.
I hope you enjoy the images.
By the way: I've been doing incredibly well with keeping up with the blog...so...I think that deserves a little bit of credit. Hopefully enough credit to let me coast for this next week. I'm heading up to Pittsburgh to photograph and ordination then 'm going on a little road-trip with a couple of my buddies. A bachelor party of sorts. ...except none of the weird stuff. Just some camping and sight seeing. So...I should have some good photos for you guys in about a week.
wheat fields
here are a few shots from michigan after a long day of wedding planning.
still holding on to the romance ;)
kristen + bryan
here's an example of a wedding where everything goes smoothly. wonderful people who are very in love. they get married on a beautiful day with some of their best friends. wonderful food, fireworks that put any 4th of July celebration to shame, dancing, and a grand exit with 2 foot tall sparklers.
not a bad way to celebrate two people coming together.
kristen and bryan: best of luck to you both! i hope you love your pictures as much as i do!
you have to love these summertime/atlanta weddings. right after the ceremony i found the whole wedding party camped out in this giant refrigerator.
yes. these are real fireworks.
north star gazing
i had to wake sarah up when i saw the stars last night. this is a 16 minute exposure off of the dock at sarah's parent's house in Michigan. pretty amazing night. i saw about 6 shooting stars while i was taking this picture but i didn't get one in the photo :(
next time.
pit stop
sarah and i made the long arduous trek from south carolina to michigan for an exciting and completely non-stressful week of wedding planning. it's only a 14 hour drive but with a puppy you have to make a few extra stops. this is behind a gas station somewhere in ...virginia? i think? i don't know where it is. 
gretchen.
this is gretchen. she's german. she's got short hair. she points.
(german short-haired pointer) sarah got me a really sweet puppy for my birthday.
one of the best gifts i could ever get. she's the gift that keeps on giving. i wake up in the middle of the night...cleaning up poop and puddles. buuuuttt....she is pretty cute.
