The rain almost duped us, but this down to earth family decided to lean into it, and what do you know - we were blessed with the most magnificent, glowing sunset!

Metroparks are usually my first choice for engagement sessions because not only are they beautiful - they are roomy!

We had the sweetest little spring session with the Nyeholt family. I met them bright and early to catch the kids at their best hour.

An immersive workshop for aspiring wedding photographers… It all stared over morning lattes with my girl Emily. Fellow photographer and creative crusader - we decided to take our first swing at hosting a workshop.

Let’s talk about how to shake those pre-engagement shoot jitters…

Special shout-out to Paige & Sean for being SO fun to work with, and a perfect example for this blog!

With a shared loved for hockey, snow, and all things winter… we knew a winter engagement session was it for Kelsey + Conner!

A blog for all my winter lovers today! Here in Michigan we live for those hot summer days, and die for that pumpkin spice latte in the fall. I get it, but let’s not forget the calm serenity of the winter!

There’s no denying it. Wedding planning is overwhelming AF. The bliss and sparkle of showing off that new diamond ring is quickly overshadowed by a mountain of tasks needing attention to pull off a 100+ person party. Yikes!

As Light Garden Photography continues to grow and evolve, it’s important to reconnect to our values as a business. Being clear on what we stand for as a company ensures that our growth and integrity are in alignment.

Janelle + Christian’s love story spans across oceans. They were born in different countries, grew up speaking different languages, and yet fate found a way to bring them together in love.

As I sit back and reflect on 2021, one word keeps fluttering to the surface. Transformation.

The pressure’s always on a little bit when you photograph the wedding of fellow creatives. ;)

Interrupting our regular wedding programming - for this melt your heart maternity shoot at Stony Creek Metropark!

Evan + Larry’s love story began the old fashioned way.

The Klemczak family understood the assignment.

Where to even begin with these two! Stacey and Arthur have been loving, loyal friends of ours for coming on 5 years now…

When I first spoke with Chelsea + Nico about their engagement photos… I could tell right away that they were puppy people!

It’s the absolute highest compliment when a friend reaches out to support your small business.

t was a moody, rainy morning with a few lingering rainclouds, and the anticipation of a long awaited day in the air.

These lovebirds brought their A game to this photoshoot!
