Lenderink Tree Farm, Belmont MI

Congratulations Matt and Jesse!! What a beautiful snowy day we had in west Michigan for their engagement session! I hope they get a lovely day like this next December for their wedding. These two were such troopers. The free hot chocolate helped us out a bit.

Matt and Jesse have known each other for ten years. They lived on the same floor in college, did the long-distance thing in grad school, and both ended up back in Michigan years later. Matt proposed on the 4th of July, while they were at Indiana National Park with their pup, Stanley.

After observing their fun and up-for-anything attitudes, with lots of laughter and energy (from Stanley too), I am so excited for their wedding at The Cheney Place, in Grand Rapids! It’s one of my favorite venues to photograph weddings and I know it’s gonna be a good time.

Please enjoy the preview of their engagement session…
