Intimate Outdoor Wedding at Nichols Arboretum in Ann Arbor - Courtney and Chris

This wedding day is exactly the kind of wedding that I'm just dying to shoot more of-- intentional, relaxed and intimate.

I think every wedding day is special, but there's just something different about small weddings and elopements.
