Jill & Nick . Ann Arbor, MI . Wedding

Jill and Nick were married on University of Michigan's beautiful campus. This wedding was a lot of fun for me because the bride and I go way back. We grew up in the same town attending school together throughout the years. We have not kept in touch since high school (I won't mention how long ago that was), but when she contacted me last year to photograph her wedding, I was super excited! Jill was one of those rare girls in high school that everyone liked and was genuinely nice. It was so fun seeing her, after all these years, dressed up as the radiant bride that she was! There were several other people from our school past there as well. I had a great time reconnecting with each of them. And they call this a job.

Congratulations Jill and Nick!! Thanks for everything!

Here are some of my favorites...

Honduras - Uno Photo

These last several weeks have been a bit crazy and full of travel. After spending a week in Michigan with family and photographing Jill & Nick's wedding, I turned around and left for Honduras. I spent a week with several other talented photographers capturing images hoping to tell the story of Hope for Honduras and all the wonderful things this group does for the local villagers. I have so much to share and many more images to blog from all of my travels. I will be posting more later, but wanted to post one image from Honduras. Be patient with me for a few more weeks of craziness and then stay tuned... so much to come!

Upcoming Mission Trip . Honduras

Soon I will be traveling with a group to Honduras. We will be doing all kinds of stuff, but the basis of the mission is to capture what Hope for Honduras does through photography. Hope for Honduras does all kinds of wonderful things. Please check out their website. I am asking for prayers as I prepare for this trip. Please pray for all of the missionaries already working there, the people they are working with and for, and for the group I will be traveling with. I am very excited about this opportunity and know that it will be a life changing experience.

Thank you for your prayers and support!

blessings,
amy

Vanessa & Reid . The One and Only Palmilla . Wedding

Vanessa and Reid were married at The One and Only Palmilla, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. What a resort! I was at the welcome party and the man I was talking with asked what I thought. "Absolutely beautiful!" I responded. "No, not beautiful, SPECTACULAR!" he corrected. I would have to agree. Spectacular. Vanessa rode up to the chapel in a horse and carriage with her father and flower girls. The chapel is right on the resort grounds. Following the ceremony, Vanessa and Reid rode off in that same horse and carriage. The reception was in the ballroom. Vanessa wanted everything to be white. The walls were draped in white fabric, with beautiful lighting accents. All white flowers and white linens. The room was stunning. Not to mention that Vanessa was an absolutely breathtaking bride. What a wedding!

Congratulations Vanessa and Reid! Thank you for everything :)
