Molly and Ash decided to do a "first look" portrait session before their Upper Peninsula ceremony. The first time a groom sees the bride should be a special moment. During a "first look" we set up a moment surrounded by a lovely backdrop and the bride and groom get to experience this special moment on their own time.

As you can see below, Molly and Ash had time to talk, twirl and embrace all before they walked down the aisle. I really love doing a first look because it allows for the couple to be more at ease at the actual ceremony. The transition between ceremony and cocktail hour is a bit more seamless since we are not running away to another location for photos.
