Love is in the air! These couples below are busy with preparations for their 2013 weddings, which I have the honor to photograph. But, because nobody wants to wait until 2013 to share the joy (including ME!!), we got outside and celebrated their commitment and love with engagement pictures. I’m so lucky to get to witness the fresh, real, jubilant connection that comes to easily to young couples planning their futures together.
First – Melissa and Joe. On the beach in late Summer:
Then, Melissa and Mike, and little E. E took some time to warm up to me, but we were great buddies by the end.
E was my big helper – don’t you love the pictures she took for me? I think I might hire her to be my assistant. Except she lives in Ohio, and the hours might cut into nap time.
And next – Jennifer and Eric – the air was a little…nippy….that day, but they were troopers as we galavanted all over downtown Northville.

1. LOVE that close up of Melissa and then the last one of them laying on the beach with the sunset
2. LOVE the first family shot of them and the last of them laying in the grass….beautiful!

Good heavens. These are incredible. You have so many gifts – you are one with your camera; you have an eye for light, composition, and color; but you also bring out such beauty and joy in your subjects. That’s what makes your work so valuable and above the rest.
