Howell Opera House – Retro Michigan Wedding























Retro Style Wedding at the Opera House in Howell, MI

Melanie & Jordan had their ceremony and reception in Howell, MI at the historic downtown Opera House. This Opera Theater was originally built in 1881 is now available for special events. The Bride & Groom made all their own decorations. The bride even baked the wedding cake that morning! We had the pleasure of working with the very creative team of film makers from Documentary Incorporated, they even shot some on 8mm! This wedding was also featured in the Winter/Spring 2012 issue of Metro Detroit Bride Magazine.

The color images in this post were processed with the “1984″ profile but with a little extra film grain added. See more custom color options here.

Tilt-Shift, Ingalls Mall, University of Michigan

Lindsay, Dave and their wedding party had pictures all over Downtown Ann Arbor. They had a ceremony at Ingalls Mall on the lawn between the Michigan League & the Bell Tower, then a reception at the Michigan Union. Big thanks to Ana, the best wedding coordinator, from TwoFoot Creative and Mary Ann, a great DJ, from maprodj.

“These photos turned out so beautifully- just like all the others! I am so happy that we had you with us on our very special day. I am always uncomfortable in front of a camera- always!- but somehow you made me comfortable. And you managed to capture all of the details, the mood of the day, and all of our joy!

I would tell anyone who is has a wedding coming up to ask the two of you to be their photographers. There really is nothing worse than having an awkward, weird, pretentious photographer at your wedding- and you both are the exact opposite! It was like having a friend with us throughout the day instead of a stranger following us around.

What more could we ask for- beautiful pictures and great company!” – Lindsay and David

Rain moved Mel & Chris’s ceremony inside the Rochester historical museum at Van Hoosen Farm but didn’t hurt the fun. The party continued under a tent on the lakeshore of Stoney Creek metro park.

Christie and Jason were married at St. Thomas More Catholic Church in Troy. The bridal party dropped by Firefighter’s park before the reception at Club Venetian.

“We were so happy to have Jeff and Kelly take our wedding pictures! They turned out great and we have received soooo many compliments on them. They were flexible and easy to work with. Kelly was even cool with laying in the grass and shooting up for a shot! We would recommend them to anyone searching for a wedding photographer!” – Christie

Emily and Aaron held their wedding at The Michigan League in the heart of Ann Arbor’s University of Michigan. The reception following was held in the Michigan League’s grand ballroom. We love shooting on U of M’s campus, there’s never a shortage of stunning backdrops.

081206 – Brooke and John


Brooke and John held their wedding at Waldenwoods in Hartland. Another perfect day for a lake-side Ceremony. Post ceremony they had dinner with their guests in Walenwood’s rustic hall. One of our favorite locations: great food, great sunsets etc. Thanks to the groom this was the first wedding I left soaked in champagne. LOL.
