So, I had never met Mike and Lori until the morning of our session. They both live in L.A., and their moms booked me for their wedding in September. Mike called me a couple of weeks prior, and we scheduled the session on a weekend that they’d be back in town.
Problem was, they had only one day. That’s normally not an issue, but the weatherman said that their day was going to be ugly, and not just an overcast kind of ugly. A rain, thunder, lightning, high winds, flooding and hail kind of ugly. I scouted out a lot of indoor locations and brought a couple of umbrellas hoping that everything would be ok, and that they’d still want to go through with the session.
I didn’t have to worry.
It was POURING when they arrived, but not only were they ready to go, they had extra umbrellas, extra clothes, and no worries about getting a little wet! We headed downtown to see what we could see when the skies got brighter-ish, and the clouds parted above us (relatively speaking).
It was a great day, and they’re great together!
They’re huge sports fans, so we had to hit Comerica Park and Ford Field first thing.
After the stadiums, we took a trek to Belle Isle. Aren’t they great together?
They were really excited that it stopped raining….. :)
After Belle Isle, we headed to the riverfront, and had an unapproved ride on the carousel. Security wasn’t too happy that we were there without permission…but didn’t kick us out either.
Thanks so much, Mike and Lori! I had an awesome time, and can’t wait for your wedding!! Check out the slideshow below for more of my favorites, and see all their pictures here.
