Sneak Peek: Dan + Rachel Part III | Detroit Wedding Photographer

After the First Look at the Townsend Hotel, we made our way to the ceremony site — the beautiful stone chapel at St. Hugo of the Hills in Bloomfield Hills. What a wonderful spot for a wedding!

Kara + Cicero: Sneak Peek | Detroit Wedding Photographer

Our sixth season got off to a fabulous start with Kara and Cicero’s elegant wedding and reception at the beautiful Motown Mansion in Detroit. The bride was radiant, the weather was wonderful, and even the pastor commented on how very much in love these two are.

Kara and Cicero, thank you for sharing your wedding day with us. You were a pleasure to work with and we wish you every happiness.

Enjoy the photos. The slide show starts below the pictures.

The E: Rachel + Dan in Birmingham (Part 2)

There were so many photos that I wanted to include in Dan and Rachel’s sneak peek, so I decided to do two posts about their fun engagement session. As you’ll see, we took full advantage of Downtown Birmingham, and of the gracious hospitality of the Townsend Hotel. If you don’t know The Townsend — you must! Drop by for tea one afternoon and take in the gorgeous surroundings. It was the perfect setting for Dan and Rachel’s portraits and we know that their wedding reception will be beautiful, too.

The E: Rachel + Dan in Troy and Birmingham (Part 1)

Dan and Rachel aren’t getting married until next February, but Rachel loves winter and wanted to make sure that she had snow in her engagement pictures. Well — as the saying goes, be careful what you wish for! We braved what may have been the last big snowstorm of the winter to photograph these two at home in Troy, at several locations Downtown Birmingham, and at the beautiful Townsend Hotel. We have so many great pictures that this sneak peek is going to require two posts — a first in Studio Sinead history! So make sure to come back for Part 2 on Thursday. We had a terrific time with Dan and Rachel, Rachel’s lovely mother, Dr. Denise, and Coco, the wonder dog. We’re definitely looking forward to their wedding next year, but we don’t mind waiting for more snow. :) We’d like to take a moment to send a huge thank you to Elaine, the mom of former Studio Sinead bride Jen Smith Waxberg, for sending Rachel our way. We’re truly touched by your vote of confidence.

Enjoy the photos!

The E: Shannon+Chris in Birmingham, MI

I was so excited when Erin, a 2008 bride (you may remember her beautiful fall wedding at the River Birch Lodge) referred her friend Shannon to me. Shannon is a Michigan native who now lives in California and is on the staff at the sublime French Laundry restaurant. She and her fiance, Chris, are planning an August wedding in Michigan, and we had the pleasure of shooting their engagement portraits when they were in town during the holidays. (I think it must be easier to love the cold weather when you live in California. :) We would have gladly gone out West for the session, but had we done so, we would have missed Shannon’s mother’s beautiful home, along with all of the fun that is downtown Birmingham at Christmas.)

Shannon and Chris, we had a wonderful time with you and we’re truly looking forward to your wedding day! Thanks so much for sharing an afternoon with us. We hope you enjoy your photos!

Three From One: Portraits

Some say that portraits are making a “comeback.” I say they never left.
Here are three from Lauren and Jan’s wedding that I just love.

Jan + Lauren: Sneak Peek

Lauren and Jan were married yesterday at Kirk in the Hills. The church is absolutely stunning and is one place in the Detroit area that I have always wanted to photograph.
The day was extra special for the couple because a number of Jan’s family members were able to make the trip from their home in Germany in order to attend the wedding.
And do note Lauren’s gorgeous birdcage veil. Don’t you love it? She made it herself! (And she’s going to tell us how she did it when she returns from her honeymoon.)
Congratulations, Jan and Lauren. We were delighted to share your wonderful day.

Drew + Erin: Sneak Peek

When Erin, an event planner who works for the fabulous W Hotels, hired me to shoot her wedding, I knew I’d be in for a treat. I was not disappointed. Erin and Drew were married yesterday at the beautiful River Birch Lodge. Everything about the venue, the details, and even the day itself was impeccable. Congratulations, Erin and Drew! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your day.
