Ahh...Wedded Bliss {Hollie Marie-Michigan Wedding Photography}

I couldn't wait a minute longer to post some favorite moments from Evan and Kirsten's wedding. The entire event took place at Bay Point Golf Course. Gorgeous venue!

Gotta show off the shoes!

Love this smile.

The groomsmen kept my laughing too!

The decor at Bay Point was so inspiring. I would die to have this room at every wedding.

Even though the clouds threatened to keep us locked inside to the bride and groom's delight the ceremony was bright and dry! Beautiful.

I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Hagopian!

I'm so excited I caught this dip! How fun.

Congratulations you two!

Northville Fire Department Receive Grant {Hollie Marie Photography- Michigan Wedding Photographer}

You may be wondering what this actually is. I was given the opportunity to work with Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, which awards grants to local fire stations to be used towards new equipment and much needed supplies.

Our very own Northville Fire Department was the lucky recipient! They received a $5,000 grant towards updating their SCBA bottles, aka oxygen tanks. Very important!

It was great getting speak with the fireman about their needs and what it truly takes to fulfill their much needed duties.

A special thank you to Chief Allen and all the hard working firemen at Northville Fire Department!

New! Gift Certificates {Wedding Photographers Michigan}

The Perfect Gift

From the Hall, to the caterer, invitations, to the wedding dress the list is endless of things the bride and groom are budgeting for. Not to mention the honeymoon and house. Here is a way you can help. Rather than simply writing a check to the bride and groom why not make it a little more personal. Hollie Marie now offers gift certificates that can be purchased in increments of $50. Your bride and groom can then use them towards a gorgeous leather album, framed wall art, and much more. Instead of being the second person to gift them that generic blender go a step further and be a contributor to the memories they will cherish for a lifetime!

Urban Romance {Hollie Marie Photography, Ann Arbor Michigan}

Urban Romance

These images really speak for themselves. We had a great time in downtown Ann Arbor, especially at Graffiti Alley. I couldn't have asked for a better couple to photograph in this atmosphere. A special thank you to Leon and Kristi!

There were too many favorites for me to choose from, so I decided I just had to show them all.

An urban vibe is something I have always wanted to shoot and I was not disappointed with these results.

Another fav.

I love this one!!! The golden light gives a certain romantic flair.

Thank you both, you kept me laughing and inspired!

Shabby Chic {Michigan Wedding Photographer}

{Shabby Chic}

Recently, I was introduced to Sharon Misch-Skop and Debra Jarvis, owner’s/designer’s of Details and Finishing Touches, Canton MI. I fell in love with their passion for not only their work but also their clients vision. Sharon and Debra thrive on reinventing the traditional. Today’s bride is looking for “different” , something no one has done before. Sharon and Debra worked closely with their bride Sarah, who’s vision and lifelong dream was a casually-elegant, yet very, very romantic, and fun wedding. These images are the result of their talent.

Sarah’s “shabby chic” themed wedding was held at Three Cedars Farm in Salem Township. With so many wonderful foundational elements to work with Sharon and Debra artfully completed Sarah’s vision. From the barns beam work, extravagant window boxes, wooden rocking chairs, to adding birch branches lit with twinkle lights as room dividers, vintage glass cake pedestals, a vintage quilt and “grandma’s” linens really took an old barn and made it a beautifully elegant venue.

Sharon and Deb give much credit to their favorite vendors, Josh Mayse @ Thomas's/Catering, Christi Wilshaw @ your Event Party Rental, and Jim Adams @ Quest Productions. Working with a team of trustworthy, talented, and experienced people in their field

Bella Noella Boutique {Hollie Marie Photography, Michigan Wedding Photographer}

This was a fun project I got to work on this spring. Noelle, who owns Bella Noella Boutique, was looking to update her images for her Etsy store. I was more than happy to photograph her gorgeous work. All Noelle's designs are original and handmade by Noelle herself. These are just few of my favorites. To view more of Noelle's fabulous work visit her online store on Etsy.

J & S {Wedding Photography Plymouth, MI-Hollie Marie}

{Congratulations J & S}

From beginning to end this wedding was a blast to photograph. I was able to second shoot for a colleague of mine Robin, who owns Once Upon a Memory Photography in Belleville. I had a great time. Being able to stay in the background and look for moments unique to this couple was a nice change of pace for me. It is always inspiring to watch another professional work and really get a feel for their unique style. The bride and groom were a great couple to work for, we had so much fun with them. All the little details were breathtaking from the cake, to favors, to table settings, everything was gorgeous. I hope you all enjoy their special slide show!

{Love is in the Air}

Monday I enjoyed celebrating Kirsten & Evan's engagement. Our backdrop was their newly acquired home. A perfect setting for our shoot.

A vintage technique really lent

itself to these awesome images. There is an extra romantic warmth that I just love!

Gorgeous ring Kirsten!

I can't wait to work with you both again at the wedding. We are going to have even more fun.

Congratulations!
