They’re such a strong, inspiring couple to watch- I want to thank them for trusting me with their day! :)

Julie looked AMAZING on her wedding day. I love that Kim (on the right!)  gave Julie her first haircut as a baby!

Lucky sixpence!

What did I tell you-Julie looked AMAZING! :)

Love that veil.

Here comes the bride!! Très awesome!

Perfect location. Perfect light. Perfect day!

♥

Love that car!!

Definitely a favorite.

Nate was looking pretty good himself! I mentioned that while I was shooting and Julie said, “That’s why I married him!”

I love Nate holding Julie’s dress in this one.

Check out Nate’s groom’s cake!

They had such a sweet first dance.

And of course, I’ll end with my favorite!!!

Throughout the day that fact kept coming up in my mind as I watched this obviously very in love couple.  A love like that is such an amazing thing to witness, and I was so happy to be there with them this weekend on their gorgeous day!

Katie’s mother’s first view of her daughter dressed and ready!

I just love that Katie’s mother, Dolores, was photographing the day right beside us! I’m sure she got some gorgeous shots! That’s Lewis, from Fifth and Main Productions next to her- Lewis and Ryan did a great job!

Um, hello gorgeous bride!!!

Love the shadows in this bouquet shot. ♥

Katie and Brendan decided to see each other before the ceremony, and we were able to take some photos of them at Brendan’s aunt and uncle’s house in Grosse Pointe! What a stunning location!

Katie and Brendan are soooo cute together!

Love this one of Katie laughing ;)

What an amazing room! I LOOOVE this photo!

Did I mention the house is ON THE LAKE?!

The ceremony was at St. Ambrose church.

Married!

Their reception was held at the lovely Country Club of Detroit!

Cheers to the new Mr and Mrs!

Nightline is a really really good wedding band! I highly recommend them!

And of course, a couple of late night shots on the beautiful stone staircase!
