Augustina and Michaels' wedding was a peice of art from start to finish.  From the fashion to the Manolo Blaniks (the custom designed shoes that were in Sex in the City), to the incredible cake and Emerald City stylings to the incredible FILLMORE Theatre which this evening hosted its FIRST ever wedding.  So I was incredibly honored to capture it for all the incredible talents that put it together and for Augustina and Michael.  A+M put so much time and thought into every detail and it SHOWED!!!!  The guests were entertained by the amazing Rythm Society Orchestra and it was right out of Old Hollywood!  Congratulations to you both, it was soo wonderful getting to know you both and to share this AMAZING day with you. This is a long post, but here are a few of my favorites:

So ever since I have discovered Etsy a couple of years ago, I've just been in amazed at all the talent and creativity that we each have inside of us.  What a wonderful way for you to find gifts and just about anything you could ever want.  So I have decided to share with my blog readers a product of the week that I think is unique and beautiful.  Obviously they will be wedding related, so that in a sense, I'm doing a bit of research for all of my brides that are swamped with planning and working, I try to help where I can.  I know the Bando's were QUITE the hit this year!    So my first pick is a GORGEOUS felt bouquet, which I realize is not for everyone, but there are a few of my brides out there that I know would LOVE this.  I want one for the studio too.

So alot of you have been asking about family and children portraiture, whether or not I do it....and the answer is YES of course I do.  During wedding season its so hard to blog all of the amazing families and children I have the priviledge of photographing each week, so I am going to start sharing some with you.  Its holiday card season soon, so appointments for family portraits are booking up like hot cakes, so if you are interested please contact the studio above in the contact section, or you may call the studio directly at 248-629-9408.

First up the amazing Petts family.  Great longtime friends with a wonderful sense of style and sense of humor, we had a lot of fun and I think it shows in my favorites below.
