I don’t even know where to start with Stephanie & Chris’ Shinola Hotel wedding engagement photos!!! So much elevated, sophisticated, editorial goodness!!! Stephanie has such great style & when she emailed me a photo of the dress she was considering for her & Chris’s engagement session & asked if I thought if it was too much, I told her she should definitely go for it – it was too good & perfect for the session!!! She bought the dress, a stunning black satin asymmetrical ballgown with so many fluffy layers (just wait til you see the photos of her twirling in it) and it was even better in person!! Her & Chris were super into the editorial look & she showed me a photo of Chuck & Blair from Gossip Girl (Where are all of my GG fans at – I totally want to rewatch the series again over the holidays now) that was her inspiration & I think we nailed that elevated, iconic New Yorker couple vibes at one of my favorite sophisticated spots in Detroit, the Shinola Hotel!!
Stephanie & Chris are so great and I had so much fun with them at their session! They are so sweet with each other & were total champs in the freezing cold Michigan weather!! Their love is evident in these photos and they brought all of the romantic vibes!! These two are getting married in May and I’m so excited to hang out again & have them back in front of my camera on their wedding day!!
