Last week I gave a little preview of the shoot but here is the whole shebang!

My very good friend and ultra talented wedding stylist Rhiannon of Hey Gorgeous Events created the most beautiful table for the shoot. I loved the ghost pumpkins with gold painted stems.

In lieu of a cake Rhi decided to do Pumpkin Spice Donuts from Robinette’s Apple Haus. OMG. They were amazing. I love the idea of using something unique instead of a traditional cake.

The caramel pops were made by the ever wonderful Nicole Ebbitt from The Caramel Jar. Let’s just say they were delish!

All of the beautiful paper products were created by Michelle Ellen Lee of Papertalk Press. I wish you all could have seen this paper in person. They were so shimmery and beautiful. Amazing job Michelle!

These beauties were provided by Luichiny Shoes. I adore the hearts on the bottom.

The flowers were created by Rhiannon as well. I am telling you, she is an uber talented girl…I totally love her

Is that bouquet not the most amazing thing ever! LOVE!

I am so grateful to our amazing couple who braved the extreme Michigan wind. It was so freezing!

The amazing venue is a true gem of Northern Michigan. French Valley Vineyards had not only a beautifully rustic barn, but also and amazing orchard and a charming vineyard. Talk about a photographers dream.

I am so truly grateful to have had the opportunity to photograph this lovely shoot. A big thank you to my dear friend Rhi for always answering my calls and texts, no matter what the time. Thanks for doing what you do so beautiful. It makes my job so easy. And lastly thank you for being one of my best friends. Love you!!!

Here’s to dreaming.
