I am so excited to share Sara and Steve’s Spring Wedding Addison Oaks Buhl Estate. The peaceful and serene Buhl Estate is in Leonard, Michigan, surrounded by a quiet pond and beautiful trees. Sara and Steve began their day here in Addison Oak Buhl Estate’s wedding suites. They privately read cards from one another, prepared for the day, and shared special moments with their family and friends. Check Out our blog on Getting Ready Photos.

For their first look we used the Buhl Estate’s covered front porch. If you’re unfamiliar with the term, essentially it’s a time (usually a few hours before the ceremony) where the couple can see one another for the first time in a quiet and intimate setting. Doing the first look allowed Sara and Steve to take most of their photos prior to the ceremony and freed up time for them to say hello to guests during their cocktail hour.

Addison Oaks Buhl Estate provides couples with endless areas for photo backdrops. We took advantage of their front steps, porches, gardens, and pond. Even the ample amount of textures with brick, vintage wooden doors, and organic natural elements lends itself to creating beautiful imagery.

If you love the look of Sara and Steve’s wedding, check out the photos from this Royal Park Hotel Wedding, too. Looking to host your own Spring Wedding at Addison Oaks Buhl Estate? Contact us! We look forward to documenting your day.

BEHIND THE LENS

Holly's
approach

As part of the most well documented generation, it's important to tell your piece of history purposefully, authentically, and in a meaningful way for your future generations. That is what I do. 

At the heart of my work is a deep passion for capturing genuine, heartfelt moments — the ones that truly tell your story. Over the years, we've become known as a premier photographer for small weddings in Michigan, specializing in intimate celebrations where every connection feels personal and every detail matters.

With more than 20 years of experience, I bring not only technical expertise but also a calm, reassuring presence that allows you and your loved ones to feel completely at ease. My approach is unobtrusive yet intentional, ensuring each moment is documented naturally, without interrupting the flow of your day.

When you trust me to photograph your wedding, you’ll be free to fully experience and savor every genuine moment, knowing your memories are being preserved with authenticity, care, and timeless artistry.
