Take me back to this beautiful day! Sam and Ryan had a gorgeous Grand Haven Beach ceremony followed by beautiful speeches, great food, amazing dancing, and all the beer pong you want. aka my kind of people! Another wedding ending with so many new friends, I love becoming besties with my couples and their wedding parties by the end of the day!

 

Sam and Ryan also opted to have a first look (many actually) so we took all of their wedding party photos before their wedding! This worked out amazing, by the time the ceremony is done everyone is ready to party. Who wants to listen to me direct photos after a ceremony? No one so photos before was absolutely perfect.

 

Sam decided to do first looks with both the bridesmaids and the groomsmen, and the two different reactions were hilarious. She also did a first look with her dad, Ryan's mom, and of course, Ryan! I love setting up first looks. A "first look" already happens naturally, but when you plan a couple of minutes for me to be able to capture it nicely, it photographs so well!

 

Sam and Ryan, I hope you guys are having an amazing time in Hawaii on bigger beaches and the warm sun shinning on you!
