Her momma even gave her a bath before the photo shoot to help her relax. And she did just that. She slept the whole time and didn't even know I was taking her pictures.

Since this was my first wedding I was asked to do, my friend Dianna Brubacker agreed to be the head photographer. She did a fantastic job of pulling everything together. Thanks Dianna. 

We were able to take a few pictures out at the beach after the reception. In spite of the bitter cold and a slight drizzle they all were real troopers. Enjoy a few of these wedding pictures from beautiful Michigan. 

Congratulations Matthew & Marybeth
