Northern Michigan Barn Wedding | Sarah & Eli at Starry Night Barn
Hey friends! I am delighted to announce that Sarah & Eli's wedding photos are officially ready for you to view. These two have a love that is something to aspire to.

If you've ever been out to the very end of Old Mission Peninsula, you know that what awaits you is a magical little lighthouse that sits nestled in the dune grass dividing East and West Bays.

Grand Rapids Wedding Photographer | Cory and Jordan Highway
Family is everything, right? No matter how you define family, whether chosen or biological, I think most would agree that they're the most important people in our lives. Cory is my boyfriend Don's cousin and when he reached out to us last year about photographing his wedding to Jordan, I was over the moon! It was so special to be part of my extended family member's wedding, and I knew that it would be a momentous occasion to which I would be viewing with a backstage pass to a
