Jared & Jennifer: A Country Wedding (West Michigan Wedding Photographer)

April 25, 2015

Wow, April! You surprised me this year! Not only did I end up with two weddings in a month I rarely even have one, but the weather was pretty darn impressive, especially for Michigan. Though it was a bit of a back-and-forth for Jared and Jennifer, we had more than enough good time and weather for great wedding portraits on top of all the candid shots that happened throughout the day.
 
I met these two last summer and it was a pleasure to work with them, from the initial meeting and engagement session, all the way to their big day. It's obvious that Jennifer worked with an awesome theme and carried it through well with all the décor creations, which is always something a photographer appreciates! My assistant, Kate, did a lot of detail shots and did a great job of capturing all the element they put all their work into. Not to mention that the food was great and everyone really seemed to enjoy themselves at the reception as well! Way to throw a party, Jared and Jennifer!
 
These two are a great couple, and it was definitely my pleasure to get to work with them this past year. Take a look at all the fun we had on their wedding day.
