MARCH 2017 Since I was in High School, I’ve been involved in an organization called Young Life. If you’ve never heard of it, look it up! It’s an awesome faith based organization that has staff and local groups (called clubs) in over 100 countries world wide and is all about doing life together with students of all […]

2016
To be honest, I’ve written about 6 different first sentences to this post. This year was… everything at the same time. You know how you come inside from the freezing cold and can feel your fingers thaw? They tingle, throb and feel hot and cold at the same time. Your knuckles ache a little, and you know they […]
Conor + Yuka
August, 2016 This botanical summer wedding on the water was all elegance and excitement. Conor + Yuka met at Hope College while Yuka was studying abroad in the US from Japan. During the span of their dating years Yuka led a trip for Hope students to spend a week in Japan, during which Conor met her […]
Barret + Emily
Barret and Emily’s wedding day was absolutely beautiful. The flowers were both delicate and wild, the venues were tasteful and comfortable, and the decor was on point. The thing that stood out the most about the day, though, was the joy. There were a couple times I tried to get a serious photo of Barret […]
Scott + Elizabeth
This was a beautiful day full of sunshine! Scott + Elizabeth were so sweet and at ease- especially with each other. I love how each couple has their own language together, and it’s a huge perk of the job that I get to see it. The golden light we had all day was the perfect match […]

The East Coast // Part II
We have to recall the warmth of the summer and how kind vacations in July are to us when it’s March and snowy and dark and cold. This trip with my sisters was such a privilege, and I still love savoring it. If only I could be transported in time and space to do it […]
2015
I always love looking back on a year that’s gone by. It reminds me how long a year is. It’s easy to think a year flies by and is gone as soon as it came, but really so much happens within the time of 12 months. It’s slowing down to think about it that makes the […]
The East Coast // Part I
Acadia National Park One of the few wonders that can rival that of our country’s National Parks is the wonder of sisterhood. This summer, I got to experience a long week full of both nature and family- what a treat! We drove from Michigan to New Hampshire in a straight shot full of gut laughter, atlas reading, […]
