WOOOO HOOO!!! We are so super excited to share this sneak peek with you today!!  I think this has to be my biggest ever based on number of photos, but I just couldn’t help myself!!! I have to give huuuuuge props to my amazing hubby who photographed this entire wedding by himself (as I was a part of the bridal party) and did an excellent job!  These photos were a joy to edit not only because it was such a wonderful day but because Sarah and Collin are some of our dearest friends.  I also know they appreciate our work and so was able to get really creative with the editing which made my job complete fun!  Sarah and Collin were married and held their reception at the ConCorde Inn in Clinton Township, Michigan and it was a PARTY to remember filled with happiness, love and lots and lots of dancing!  Sarah and Collin, we were there to capture the day you became engaged and were so blessed to also get to capture the day you became man and wife.  We love you guys and hope you enjoy this little glimpse into your amazing day, and of course as always, thanks again for making our blog a part of your day!

Hey guys!! We are super excited to share a sneak peek into Mollie and Jeff’s special day with you all!  This lovely couple was married at St. Mary of the Hills in Rochester Hills, MI and held a very cute and super personalized reception at Twin Lakes Golf & Swim Club in Oakland, MI.  Mollie has to be one of the most creative and crafty brides we have ever photographed and truly put her own personal touch in all the decorations used in the wedding.  It was fun for us to capture all the special details that made their day truly their own.  Mollie and Jeff’s wedding also marks the end of an era for us as a company.  Plum Soda Productions will be leaving Michigan and heading to Texas where we will no longer be photographing weddings but focusing solely on children and family portraits.  It’s been so wonderful capturing all the romance and craziness that are weddings, and we feel so honored to have been a part of so many couples most precious day.  We hope you enjoy our last wedding sneak peek and as always thank you for making our blog a part of your day!

Hey guys! It’s 2012 preview tiiiiime! We are so excited to share a sneak peak of Elizabeth and Stephan’s wedding day with you all!  This fun couple held both their ceremony and reception at Rivercrest Banquet Hall in Rochester, Michigan. There were so many fun moments to capture from the lego bride and groom they received during their ceremony, to all their guests dancing the night away!  I think if I were to pick a favorite though, their dance would have to be it.  It is easy for everyone to see the complete love between these two  We hope you enjoy and as always thank you for making our blog a part of your day!

Photo preview time again!  Hooray!!!  Today we have a glimpse into Adriana and Daniel’s wedding!  They were married at Guardian Angel Catholic Church in Clawson, MI and held their reception at Petruzzello’s in Troy, MI.  We shot a lot of their photos at Rochester Park at sunset which turned out amazing!!!  Adriana has to be one of our bravest brides, being coat-less the whole time we took photos in the 20 degree weather, even making snow angels!!  She was a such a trooper!!! We hope you enjoy their sneak peek and as always thank you for making our blog a part of your day!

Hey guys!  We know winter is just around the corner but fall is not over yet!  We shot Lindsey and Randy’s engagement photos at one of our favorite places to visit during fall time, Yates Cider Mill in Rochester Hills, MI .  We arranged the shoot in the late afternoon to see if we could capture the amazingness of the sun shining through the fall colors all around and it turned out wonderful!!  Lindsey was even awesome enough to indulge my dreams of shooting a gorgeous diamon ring on a cinamon sugar donut We hope you enjoy the photos and as always thank you for making our blog a part of your day!

Hey guys!  We are soooooo super excited to share a special little treat with you all!  You got a glimpse of the Townsend family with the sneak peek of their family photos, but today we have something even better!  The kids of the family hired us to do family photos as a gift for their parents who were moving away.  As I tried to think of fun things to do on the shoot I had a GREAT idea!!  What if Tyler pretended to be photographing but filmed instead?  Since we use SLR camera’s that look like photo camera’s the parents would never catch on!  We could capture all the action and even have each one of the family members say a special message.  The Townsend kids though it was an awesome idea and even came up with an acrostic spelling out “family” that described their family.  The final result was amazing!  We hope you enjoy this awesome video of an awesome family!

It’s engagement photo time again! We are so excited to share a sneak peek of Ben and Dena’s engagement photos with you.  We had suggested Stoney Creek Metro park as a shooting location for this couple and were super excited  to find out it was actually where Ben proposed!!  So we decided to make it even better and do the shoot at sunset.  It was a great time and the photos turned out beautiful!   We are excited to share them with you and hope you enjoy!  As always thank you for making our blog a part of your day! Oh and keep a look out for the video we shot of their engagement session coming soon!

You first got a glimpse of this couple in their engagement photos but today we have a sneak peek into the photos of their wedding day!!  Anne and Jesse were married at Our Lady of Sorrows in Farmington, MI and held their reception at  The Dearborn Inn in Dearborn, MI. Their ceremony location was amazing to photograph because their church was so beautiful, open and full of natural light!!  Their reception was also a blast with the staff of the Dearborn Inn giving quite the show when serving the head table their dinner!  We hope you enjoy this sneak peak and keep a look out because we’ve got more on the way and as always thank you for making our blog a part of your day!

Hey guys!  We are so excited today to share with you some amazing engagement photos!!  Francesca and Chris spend their summer weekends out on the lake on the boat having a great time!  We were so excited when they shared their awesome idea of taking their engagement photos doing just that!  We were super lucky to have a beautiful day to capture these two and the love between them.  It was an awesome time because they are truly wonderful people!  Speaking of love, I challenge you all to find the word ‘love’ in one of the photos… I sneaked it in because I thought it was perfect!  Also, you will notice that our normal bottle cap watermark is gone! No reason to be blue though, our new watermark is awesome and not only has a plum soda bottle as the ‘L’ in our name, but the bottle cap is the ‘O’! We would never just get rid of it all together!  Enjoy the photos and as always, thank you for making our blog a part of your day!
