fun wedding photographer

Mary + Nick // MSU Horticulture Gardens Wedding // Lansing Wedding Photographer

We as photographers have some weddings where everything just magically falls into place. Where the couple is super loving toward each other, the light is amazing everywhere we go which is crazy as the bulk of these were shot mid-day and the people are great and so was the venue. MSU, I came to find out, is just a photographic jackpot everywhere we went. My mind was going a mile a minute thinking about all the possibilities and the pressure to be great while I had limited time but a great couple.

I am super proud of the photos I came up with and the experience we had during the portrait process. Special thank you (times a million) to Mary’s maid of honor who just happened to be an assistant to a wedding photographer back home. She was so helpful and I couldn’t have done this without her! If I was rich I would 100% hire her to come to Michigan and be full time with us!

This wedding will be one of my favorites for a while and a memory I will definitely keep with me. It was all about family, with such great moments and the sharing of deep feelings that may not have a chance to come out if not for the joining of these two families.

Ok enough gushing, I hope you can feel some of what I felt through these images!

Hannah & Daniel // Richard App Gallery Wedding

Every year we seem to get one or two weddings by way of an illness of the previous photographer, a double booking or other things of that nature. We were able to step in and help once again for Hannah and Daniel and hit the jackpot. They ended up being our ideal client with a mix of genuinely kind and laid back personalities, with a touch of wackiness! What they lacked in craziness, their wedding party supplemented in spades!! We couldn't have asked for more. 😎 Thank you for welcoming us as part of the gang! We had so much fun and it shows in the images!

We really appreciate that both Hannah and Daniel can be super fun but then flip the switch into lovey mode with ease. These people adore each other and we loved it!! That love carried over to their kids when they both gave separate vows to them during the ceremony and let me tell you, there was not a dry eye in that gallery. I've heard a lot of vows but those got me right in the feels! 😭 You guys have such a great little family and I can't wait to give you these photos you can treasure forever.

Here's to you guys.

-Ryan

have a great life together Hannah and Daniel!!
