Detroit Urban Shoots



This is also a wedding gallery,with images taken while we are travelling to Detroit for some fun urban romantics. This is one of our favorite romantic locations, we have been accused of making Detroit look good.




It’s working….

Posted on August 7, 2010

We finally figured out a big part of the puzzle to get the blog portion of this site working better.

Thank you so much to Chris Hebert who has been working tirelessly to help me make the blog portion of this website/blog work better. There is no real support for Wordpress – that is the hard part.  All my old posts (going back to 06)  are supposed to show up under the galleries – if the name of the category checked and the gallery name is exactly the same – well I was skeptical and worried about this – and knew it had to be easier said than done!  I was right – it was far from easy!  After a lot of research, detective work, coding repair and manually entering things to make the  move easier, she has succeeded to make it work .

Thanks bunches Chris -

Hope you ENJOY, let us know how you like it, we value any input.

I have not ben as active on the blog as I used to be. The Facebook Fan Page is truthfully more up to date right now – so check it out.  Will be catching up on some of the recent things we have been up to

Thank you

Wally

Kate and Brad 11-22-08

Posted on December 20, 2008

We photographed the Kate and Brad on November 22nd. The girls got ready at the the home and then off to the Our Lady Queen of Martyrs church in Beverly Hills close by for a beautiful ceremony. We had a terrific time on our romantic Urban shoot – even in the cold. We stopped at the Tiger at Comerica Park, The Fox Theater and Hockey Town. But the most unique fun was at Campus Martius – where they actually got on the ice rink. Then we warmed up inside the Compuware Building and enjoyed taking photos in front of the tallest waterfall in the area.

The reception was at Andiamos in Troy – everyone one enjoyed this great way to end the evening.

Then went on to the Historic Sweetest Heart Of Mary Cathedral in Detroit by for a beautiful ceremony.
Then we went on to some fun \”Urban\” Romantics at Comerica Park and Hart Plaza on the waterfront. This is always fun for the couple and the bridal party.
Everyone enjoyed the reception at the Fox Hills Golf And banquet center in Plymouth. We enjoyed some more romantic photography on the beautiful grounds and then ended the evening with a fun reception that everyone enjoyed.

Jessica and Billy August 16, 2008

Posted on December 5, 2008

We photographed a great wedding for Jessica and Billy on August 16th. The girls got ready at the fabulous MGM Grand hotel in Detroit and then went on to the Historic Fort Street Presbyterian close by for a beautiful ceremony.

Then we went on to some fun Urban Romantics. Comerica Park, The Fox, Hockeytown were fun, especially since there was a game coming up soon. Then we headed on to the waterfront behind the Ren Cen. Billy had proposed here so it was very specially. The small water fountain jets were very interesting and they had fun getting in between the rows.

Everyone enjoyed the reception was at the Detroit Athletic club. We were fortunate enough to be able to get on the roof to take photos of Jessica and Billy during the fireworks after the Tigers game. A great way to end the evening.

Courtney and Matthew 08-08-08

Posted on September 26, 2008

The magic date this year was was 08-08-08 and we had a great wedding that day for Courtney and Mathew.

We started with the girls getting ready at the home in Riverview and then went on the nearby church St Syprian for a beautiful ceremony.
From there we traveled to Detroit for our “Urban Shoot”. We started at Hart Plaza by the fountain and the riverfront went on to the Fox Theater, Comerica Park and the Tiger and back across Woodward Ave to Hockey town. It was getting close to a Tiger game so lots of people around added to the fun. This was a lot of fun for all of us.

The reception was terrific also at the great Plymouth Meeting House Grande Ballroom and even ended with some sparklers.

They had photographed a great engagement session on Belle Isle and I had designed a sign in album with lots of images and romantic quotes chosen by Matt that everyone loved to browse through and sign. They also used their favorite image of ours on a Jones soda bottle favor, the cover of the program/CD booklet and a save the date magnet.
