To Roots and Wings, and a "Latta Love"
In this Wedding Film I was fortunate enough to have been asked to fly out to South Carolina and capture these two big day!
Little Humid, but all in all the weather was awesome. We spent the week leading up to the wedding day on their family's huge porch with cigars and drinks. Talking about everything and anything all at the same time. From having shots of tequila with mom, bouquets so "Lit" that they literally start on fire to dinosaurs in the wedding party! This celebration had it all!
I want to thank Carrie and Terry for trusting to fly me out to capture their day... what an awesome week/weekend it was down in South Carolina!

Sydney + Talha 'A Beautiful Mix of Cultures'
Sydney and Talha had a beautiful mix of cultures. Sydney is the second of four Ciaramitaro sister that I've had the pleasure of capturing their weddings! At this point I feel like family! The whole day was like a dream shoot for us. Surrounded by great venues and beautiful people!

A lot of my weddings are unique in their own ways... Today was a first for me and my team! Not only did the couple fly in from Colorado but the reception was shot at Historic Fort Wayne in Detroit. It definitely was a throwback in history walking around the estate. Check out the 'grand entrance' ... that was a first for me too!

Even when our state, country, literally the world was shut down during covid... these two didn't stop or bat an eye! they took everything in stride and the first opportunity we all had once the world opened back up- we took it and ran with it!
Katie + Jon "... finding someone to dance through life with..."
This wedding was great! Not only did I get to see family at this wedding event... Not only did I get to work with other awesome vendors at this wedding event... Not only did I get to have "my first time" at a relatively new rooftop venue in Detroit, BUT... Katie and Jon got married and found their someone to dance through life with!

I have to say it was also a blessing working with other vendors who are friends/family at this event. DJ Big Ben Entertainment and Mel Anne Photography

This was a first for me! Not too often am I am traveling to new venues within my own state! Today I was lucky enough to travel to a new place called, 'My Sisters Barn' out in Fairgrove, Michigan. Beautiful spot out in the country, I highly recommend. Extra bonus today- I was able to work with the talented Candice Lamarand from 'Candice Lamarand Photography'. #weddingvideography #weddingfilm #michiganwedding #mysistersbarn #barnwedding #travelwedding #travelvideography
Brooke and Nick ('... I didn't see you coming."
One of the reason I love what I do, is not only because I'm trusted to tell someone's love story... but I'm able to travel with couples to gorgeous locations. In this film, Brooke and Nick (Iggy) took a weekend to celebrate with their family and friends on the banks of Muskegon Bay in Muskegon, Michigan.
The days leading up to the wedding, I was able to join them on their families yacht as we traveled around the bay and watched beautiful sunsets at night. Laughing and drinking with friends as Iggy and others jumped into the water from the top steps of the yacht.
Iggy's uncle owns a bar in downtown Muskegon that we were able to visit while in town. Great atmosphere and great conversations had by friends and family sharing stories of Brooke and Iggy's story thus far.
Wedding day finally arrives, and I already feel like part of the family. Brooke and Nick's family are very accommodating asking 'me' if I need anything when they make their drinks to celebrate. Because this was such a big event I took a long with me more of my team from back home. Joining me was Blake and Kynna. Blake helped out with being my 2nd shooter, and Kynna took the lead for all photography for the wedding. Well needless to say photo and video turned out great!
Brooke and Iggy have a little girl named Olivia who I think was the real star of the show. Her smile, giggles, and yes even her 'yells' were infectious! Iggy, had a special song picked out just for the two of them to share during the daddy-daughter dance and it was very cute seeing Olivia laying in his arms. Brooke's father had an emotional toasts during dinner, that I think had everyone in tears!
So much to say about this amazing couple and their wedding! My team, myself, and everyone involved had an absolute blast!
