Jenna & Cole
Mackinac Island Wedding
Just two weeks before their Mackinac Island wedding, I got a call from Jenna and Cole. I was so sad to learn that their sweet dog Mickey was diagnosed with cancer.
Mickey is their world. He was their ‘best man,’ and now they didn’t know if he would make it to the wedding.
So I was overjoyed when, after much prayer, Mickey made it to the wedding! He was the star of the show! Their ceremony took place on the lawn overlooking Lake Michigan. Later, I captured their reception in a banquet room with chandeliers and live bluegrass music. Everything came together, making is the best day.
The weather was perfect for a fall day in Northern Michigan. Mickey also had the time of his life swimming in Lake Michigan and running around Mission Point Resort. The day after the wedding Jenna and I both texted each other the same thing: “God is good.”
The Little ‘God Things’
My approach to photography is natural and candid, and Jenna & Cole made this easy. I give my couples lots of prompts and actions to help us capture candid moments. Additionally, I appreciate how laid back and relaxed Jenna & Cole were on their wedding day. I believe it was that effortlessness and ease that caused their images to turn out so beautiful and candid.
It’s little God-things like this that are getting me through this year. In my opinion, 2020 started making us expect the worst. Rather than focusing on the bad and preparing for the worst, I try to focus on the good and be hopeful for the best.
The little ‘God-things’ are not so little to me this year.
I’m so honored to have been a part of this Mackinac Island wedding! Their photos ended up being featured in My North Wedding magazine, check out the article here!
