Tauren and Jen’s faces might look familiar to you… that’s because this isn’t the first time we’ve photographed their love story. We first met at the LGBTQ Pride shoot I was a part of and you can check out their mock Wedding photos along with other fabulous couples here!

Well, amazing news, after that they ended up getting engaged, and not just for the photoshoot, for real this time! ha! We were thrilled when they asked us to be a part of their journey!! It was so exciting and beautiful to revisit this experience of photographing them as a couple again, but this time celebrating “love is love” in real life, their way, their style!

And spoiler alert- we’re shooting their wedding too! AH!

The moment we walked into this session everything just clicked, like we had know Tuaren and Jen forever. They are just our kind of people, fun, easy going, eclectic… watching these two souls connect in front of our camera was epic. Keep scrolling, it just keeps getting better….

If it isn’t super obvious just by looking at these two- they are the sweetest! Their whole shoot was filled with so many laughs and so much love! The blend of both romantic and playful was so easy to photograph. And you’re seeing all this fun style right!? Photographer’s dream! Give us all the hats, lace dresses, rainbow socks, and suspenders all day!!

The Belle Isle Conservatory in Detroit made for a beautiful background in most of our images, but as the sun started to set we traveled around the park and captured even more magic in a few different nooks!

How do you describe love? Can you give it a face? Does is have a color? A shape? Does love hold a masculine or feminine side? Does love come with a specific label or instructions?

Not that I’ve ever heard of.

Love is Love

That moment when 2 people, 2 humans, 2 souls meet, and they just click. Love is when you can trust someone with everything you have. Love is not selfish. Love is kind. Love is something we should feel with pride.

June is Pride month for the LGBTQ Community. If you’re new to the game and are wondering what that means, don’t worry- Wikipedia’s got you covered. “Gay pride or LGBT pride is the positive stance against discrimination and violence toward lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people to promote their self-affirmation, dignity, equality rights, increase their visibility as a social group, build community, and celebrate sexual diversity and gender variance.”

There’s no right or wrong way to do love, just like there’s no right or wrong way to do art. It just happens. It’s an extension of who we are. Most of the time it can’t be explained. And most of the time we don’t need to explain, nor should we have to. We just need to enjoy the process for ourselves. Art. Love. These are extremely personal experiences. To share them with other beautiful people is the best feeling in the world. And that includes everyone inside the LGBTQ Community!
