Sweet enough to eat: Natalie and Jonathan’s Royal Oak Engagement Session
Cherished. When you see the way Jonathan looks at Natalie, you know she is cherished. It really is something sweet to behold. I think it’s safe to say this is one of the sweetest sessions I’ve ever photographed, in more than one way.
Natalie is the creative genius behind New York Nat and a FABULOUS bridal line called Lovely by Natalie. Brides, do yourself a favor and check her bridal line out. Jonathan saves the world one case at a time as an Assistant District Attorney. I should also mention that both of these two are fellow University of Michigan graduates, which makes me like them just a little bit more. The pastry shop featured is Astoria in Royal Oak, Michigan.
Thank you for taking the time to read this post. Stay tuned for more updates!

April 14, 2011Oh my goodness, that very first image (the horizontal one with those *eyelashes*) is a stunner! Either you or this couple need to get that printed nice and big and put it on display! And I admire Natalie’s style – I expect the wedding will be out of this world. I give them props for braving the cold weather! Beautiful images throughout, I bet they are very pleased. 🙂
