In our line of work, it never fails to warm our hearts when we get to work with a high school sweetheart couple tying the knot.  I  went to high school with the bride and groom as well and have seen their love story come full circle, so it made photographing their wedding day all […]

Some of the best love stories are friends turned lovers, and that is exactly how it happened for Nate and Lauren. They met through mutual friends at Western Michigan University in late 2017.
