October looks good on Ann Arbor. 🍂

From Wednesdays spent sipping at La Serre, exploring A2 Artoberfest, and game day mornings with cider and donuts at The Vanguard, there’s plenty happening around town this month.

Save this one for your October plans.

Most couples think they’re hiring me to take photos on their wedding day.

What they’re actually getting starts the moment they fill out my inquiry form.

Before I ever pick up my camera, I’m already paying attention.

I study your venue for the best light and the hidden pockets of magic.

I have a real conversation with you about what you’re most excited for—and what you’re quietly worried about.

I build a priority list around the people, moments, and details that matter most to you, so nothing meaningful gets overlooked.
