Paden & Amber's Houghton, MI Area Wedding

I felt a little more at ease with my  2nd wedding photo-shoot last month, maybe since it was outside.
Paden is a 1st cousin on my Mom's side of the family. The wedding was outside at his Mom's house, outside of Houghton, in a field. It was a pretty place to have it.
The ceremony was short & sweet, they recited their own vows. This was my first time attending a  wedding where they said their own vows so it was special to hear their love story and what they've been through.

Anne Marie & Matt's Sturgeon Bay, WI Wedding

The 1st of my 2 weddings I shot last month. Such an experience!
Anne Marie is a first cousin on my dad's side of the family. We grew up in the same town, so of course we celebrated Christmas Eve with our huge family every year either at Grandma's house or her family's house. I was honored that she and her fiance asked me to do their wedding photography.
The ceremony took place at the Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Sturgeon Bay, WI. It was a catholic wedding with mass and communion.  The reception was located in a tent on the property the Groom's Mom owns. It was a beautiful piece of land right on Sturgeon Bay.
Here are some of my favorite shots from their special day!
