Melody & Eric ~ Married | Grand Rapids, MI Wedding Photographer

On June 12, Eric and Melody were married at the Post Family Farm. It was a beautiful day, wonderful location, and a fantastic couple.

Eric and Melody chose to do the first look, this is when the Bride and Groom see each other before the ceremony. I love it when couples choose to do this. It makes the day go just a little bit smoother.

Tia & Brian ~ Married - Grand Rapids, MI Wedding Photography

On June 5th, Tia and Brian were married in Grand Rapids, MI. Thankfully the rainy weather held off until right before the reception started! They wanted a vintage-simple feel to their wedding. I believe they accomplished that the most by focusing their priorities on their love and their guests.

To make the day even more special, it was also Tia's parents 40th wedding anniversary. What a great way to start the first day of your married life together with a wonderful example of commitment and love.

Tia, you were one gorgeous bride!!





Brain, you are not so bad yourself. Especially after we got both sides of that smile working. :)



































During the reception we snuck outside to get a picture of Tia's sisters and her mom's wedding rings. They are all married now!!



Congratulations Tia and Brian. You two are an amazing couple. I wish you all the best.

What to wear Wednesday - Grand Rapids, MI photographer

Here are few outfits that would be adorable on your little girl(s). I love the black and white jumper for a baby girl and at only $13 it is affordable and cute. It would also look great in a black and white image. *hint *hint. I paired the outfits with orange, but you could use any color. Put Dad in jeans and a white shirt, Mom in a gray dress with shoes or accessories to match your color choice and voila! You have a fabulous photo session wardrobe.
