Mike & Kristin were such a wonderful couple to work with. Fun-loving, energetic, and just so very happy together. It was a beautiful wedding at the Cascade Falls in Jackson MI, a truly beautiful and unique setting. Put it all together and you have the makings for some beautiful images.
Looking back at 2012, we had a ton of extreme weather weddings, and this one was no exception. The heat index hovered around 98 degrees fahrenheit, with crazy humidity, literally we were sticking to the pavement in the park, and my tripod was sinking into the asphalt… To say that this couple were good sports, is an understatement. But, no matter how good of sport anyone may be, there are times when you can only do so much without being hindered by the elements. After some very quick and creative bridal party shots, it was inevitable that everyone involved (no matter how good of sports) were ready to seek refuge in some air conditioning… This is a perfect example of how a post couple session can come in handy. It allowed us to focus on the bare necessities, so that the bride and groom could sneak a much needed break. Most importantly, it kept their day enjoyable, as it should be. As an added bonus, we were able to meet up again after the honeymoon, at a time when it wasn’t so crazy hot, and when we could take as much time as was needed to capture all of the fun creative stuff that we knew was important to our couple, but that they would have missed out on without the extra session. WIN. WIN. WIN.
At any rate here’s some of our favorites from this beautiful wedding. Stay tuned… We’ll post some shots from the post couple session later this week!
