Rich + Katie
Montague, Michigan
Rich and Katie had me hooked when they described themselves as “laidback introverts” who wanted a small intimate wedding at the tree farm where Katie grew up. The two live in Denver but came back to Michigan to be married outside on the Tuesday after Christmas surrounded by a handful of their closest friends and family. Katie’s dad had a roaring bonfire going, they shared their vows surrounded by evergreens as guests sat on hay bales wrapped in blankets. They released Chinese lanterns and mingled in the home that was still adorned with Christmas decorations.
I always feel honored to document weddings but I feel even more connected when I’m surrounded by the possessions and spaces that are beloved by the couple.
