ADVENTUROUS MARQUETTE MICHIGAN ELOPEMENT

This Marquette Michigan elopement showcases this uncrowded, unspoiled, and unbeatable area of the Midwest. If you haven’t considered Michigan’s Upper Peninsula for your elopement destination, there are so many options! Christian + Elya wanted an outdoor elopement in the UP early in September, with a focus on nature. My specialty! We crafted a day with a variety of landscapes, inclusive of their small group of guests. They started their morning at these modern cabins outside of town which I found for them. I am more than a photographer.

BLACK ROCKS MICHIGAN ELOPEMENT

Imagine exchanging vows atop an ancient magma flow. Black Rocks (near Marquette Michigan), provided an excellent ceremony location. The day was misty + overcast. We dodged any hard rain luckily and had the whole area to ourselves because of it. Passing sailboats, gentle breezes, dodging puddles, and we got started. One of the couple’s closest friends officiated the ceremony while a handful of friends looked on.

After hiking back to our cars, the group enjoyed a celebratory drink and signed their marriage license. After all this, the couple and I went on our own adventure to soak in all the just-married feels. They enjoyed a private beach, hidden beyond the woods. They set up a picnic, strolled the shores of Lake Superior, and explored nooks + crannies.

“From the start we knew Emily was the best photographer for our elopement. We looked at many, liked few, and loved one. Her photos are magical and truly capture the individuals personalities and elegance.

Before our special day she supplied us with recommendations for places to take photos. Helped us with aspects of our trip. And even scoped out all of our photo locations to make sure they would looked as good as we did. During our ceremony and photos after she made us feel comfortable. She wanted us to try different things. She encouraged us to trust our ideas. And she guided us when we had no clue with what the heck we were doing.

Emily is not just a great photographer, she’s a great person to spend your day with. We talked about life and hobbies, joked around about the fun quirks that all of us strange people have, and made it exciting for all of us involved. My husband and I could not be happier about our decision to hire Emily. Not only did our photos turn out way better than we ever could have hoped, we met a person who we are proud to call a friend. Thank you, Emily!“
