Katherine + Joseph // Detroit, Michigan

When I think about the span of our careers as wedding photographers there are glimpses in time that feel like substantial benchmarks, maybe its a certain look we are trying to accomplish, our first wedding out of the country, or in this case a specific venue we have wanted to work at. It feels amazing to accomplish those goals and celebrate new accomplishments or moments in our business. However, I find that the days and moments that actually stick with us have nothing to do with the big fancy travel weddings, or amazing venues, or new cameras, it always goes back to the same thing, our clients.

This past weekend we shot Joe and Kates wedding and it was a dream and now it holds a special place in our hearts, not because of the location, gorgeous flowers, or champagne tower, but because of their love for each other and their hearts for us and the people around them. If there is one thing I have learned about what we do its not as much about all of the beautiful things that go into making the day perfect and memorable, its about the genuine relationship built between us and our clients, allowing us to capture them in their purest form. We want to build lasting relationships with couples and allow them to feel completely themselves in front of our cameras for all of life’s biggest moments.

We have said for over a decade now that we have the best clients and that stands true, we genuinely do. We have made so many friends over the years and captured some of the most special moments we will never forget. I am so happy for Kate and Joe that you found each other, that you had your dream day together, and now you get to start a lifetime together. We are also so thankful that we crossed paths and can call you friends. Thank you for sharing this beautiful day with us, it is one we will never forget.
