Rachel & Kurt

Rachel & Kurt are such a sweet couple! Their wedding reception was at the fabulously restored Lafayette Grande in Pontiac, MI. We really enjoyed photographing their special day, and wish them well in their new life together in Chicago!

Sneak Peek- Dana & Ronnie

Tracy and I just photographed Dana & Ronnie's festive wedding this past weekend, and were swept off our feet! It was so energetic, genuine and just plain fun. Here's a peek at a few of my faves so far...

Lebanese family cookbook

Here is a sneak peek of the Lebanese family cookbook that I started working on with my mom today. The best part is getting to eat the food after we make it together! Of course, transcribing the generations of family recipes that are stored in her head is such an important part of it too. She learned how to make much of it from my late grandmother in Lebanon, Marie Gergi (my mom and grandmother pictured here, from our trip to Lebanon in 2004). I am very excited to work on this project with her!

Bonnie & Les

Bonnie & Les had a sunny April wedding in the lovely gardens at the historic Scarab Club in Detroit. Close friends and family gathered around as they exchanged vows, and then enjoyed an afternoon concert of chamber music inside the gallery. It was a pleasure to capture their day for them!

Bonnie, Les, and friends- please click here to see your gallery of photos.

Stephanie & Ashley's snowy wedding

What are the chances of having another wedding day fraught with near-blizzard conditions this year? Pretty good in Michigan. Stephanie and Ashley were great sports about it, braving the crazy weather for some pretty winter photos that they can remember their frosty February wedding day by. Congratulations you guys!
