Spencer Park, Troy, MI- Dan {Metro Detroit Senior Photography}

8/31/2015

0 Comments

 
What can I tell you about my friend, Dan? I could tell you about how he is wise beyond his years. Or how he quietly observes his world around him, only to drop words that seem to be carefully chosen because they are so articulate and reflective and inspiring. I could also tell you how big his heart is for his family, his friends and his faith. Hopefully you'll meet him some day, because I don't think these words do his personality justice.

He's a pretty cool guy! And he's so excited to finally be a senior! 

I met up with Dan at one of his favorite childhood spots- Spencer Park in Troy, Michigan. He and his family love to spend their time with nature here, getting lost in the woods and admiring the lake.

Blue Dress Barn, Benton Harbor, MI- Melissa+Matt {Metro Detroit Wedding Photographer}

8/13/2015

It was a beautiful Michigan summer day and Melissa was excited to be working at the Michigan DNR, exploring nature during her summer off from teaching. She then noticed a blonde haired man approaching. "Who's that?" Melissa asked one of her co-workers. "Oh, that's Matt. He never smiles," said her co-worker. "I bet I can make him smile," said Melissa. 

And she did just that. She made Matt smile in countless of ways, from their nature hikes in all sorts of Michigan weather, to catching fish in various lakes and rivers that surround their West Michigan home. And Matt made Melissa smile the biggest smile when he asked to be his forever!
Melissa and Matt, capturing your beautiful day was an absolute dream! You believed in me from day one and my heart is beaming! I wish I had better words for describing "thank you."  I know that whenever I go to West Michigan, I will always think of you two- your love for nature and each other is truly inspiring! 
Love, April

Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI -Joey and Amy {Metro Detroit Engagement Photography}

8/6/2015

During one spring semester at Michigan State University, Amy helped organize a mission trip to Puebla, Mexico with a group of adventurous do-gooders. Everyone signed up to spend their spring break traveling hundreds of miles for friendship, faith and ultimately- to do good things.


 Little did Amy know that Joey signed up for something more- her. 

Picture
It was a rainy summer day in East Lansing, so we started off at the MSU Library.
Picture
Joey's eyes never left Amy's glowing smile!
Picture
What a show-stopper of a ring!!
Picture
Next we took our adventures outside and found a dry, cozy spot for them to enjoy the rain. Well, I enjoyed the rain. The love birds enjoyed each other!
Picture
Picture
We saved the best spot for last and headed over to this grandfather-like tree by the Horticulture building, where Joey asked Amy to be his adventure partner for life. 
Picture
 The clouds parted and the rain stopped. And Amy and Joey were transported back to their amazing moment under their tree. It was magic!
Picture
Happy Thursday!
-April
