Wedding at the St. Sarkis Armenian Apostolic Church

Looking back at this lovely Armenian-American wedding at the Saint Sarkis church in Dearborn, Michigan, just simply brings tears to my eyes. Not only was the church amazingly beautiful inside, but they also had one of the most ornate wedding ceremonies I have ever witnessed. The Armenian people are quite charming, witty, beautiful, and very friendly. (I know this from experience from photographing this wedding, as well as from my husband’s family. He too, is Armenian.) This ceremony took place between an Armenian woman and her husband, who was American, but was adopted into the Armenian culture by his new Armenian family and church. To see some of the photos from this ceremony, please read on below.

Downriver Wedding Photos at the Taylor Conservatory

We had the great pleasure of photographing a wedding located at the Taylor Conservatory, on August 23rd of this year. I must say, this is a beautiful venue, and would highly recommend it to any of those clients looking to do a beautiful outdoor wedding, where flowers are plenty. Not only does this venue offer a gazebo for a reception (or ceremony!) and tons of flowers, it also is located on a nice big park complete with a petting zoo, open fields, a pond, and an old train. Our Bride and Groom were quite classic looking and it fit the venue they chose perfectly, in my opinion. The Bride made all of the decorations herself for this wedding and reception, as well as the invitations and many other things. The groom was funny, and quite witty, which are always pleasurable traits to work with. To see some of the photos we were able to capture, please continue on below!

Metro Detroit Downriver Baby Portraits at Elizabeth Park

Get ready for some cuteness overload! I had the pleasure of photographing this adorable, almost 1 year old baby this last weekend, and he was simply amazing to work with. He had a lot of fun in Elizabeth Park of Trenton, Michigan, just rolling around in the grass and getting into general mischief. He got to see some ponies that were stabled there, as well as an adventure with a giant daddy long leg spider! All in all, it’s safe to say that this photo-shoot tuckered the little guy out for his parents. To view his adorable photos, read on below!

Michigan Wedding at Historic Hope Chapel

As wedding photographers it was a great honor, pleasure, and privilege to document this awesome couple’s great day! This gorgeous little wedding was held at the beautifully kept Historic Hope Chapel, located in Shelby Township, Michigan (Just a short drive North of Detroit). If you’re looking for a quaint and beautiful locale to have your nuptials, this is definitely a chapel worth consideration. Not only is it quite cute, but also very beautiful and charming. It includes the chapel, and as a bonus, there are lovely gardens and park nearby which makes for a great setting for the bride and groom’s portraits!

Senior Portraits in Downtown Detroit

We recently had the great pleasure of doing a Senior Portrait session in Downtown Detroit; and let me tell you, they turned out amazing! Our senior, Koda, has always been in love with the scenery and life of Detroit, and wanted us to encompass that love of hers, into her senior pictures. She wanted us to use any graffiti we found, as well as cool locations iconic to Detroit. Check out the results below and let us know what you think!
