Nicole and Micah’s wedding could not have been photographed successfully without the help of having my second photographer, David Yarnall, helping me. This was one of my more challenging, yet rewarding, weddings of the year. Nicole and Micah had two ceremonies, three changes of outfits, and two sets of portrait sessions after each wedding. The reason is that the two honored both of their families’ cultural and religious backgrounds, one being Hindu and the other Jewish. To say the least, the day was unique and beautiful, full of color, emotion and rich in traditions. The entire event took place at the glorious Royal Park Hotel in Rochester, Michigan, a very popular venue because of the beautiful setting. Both ceremonies took place there, the Hindu wedding in the morning and the Jewish wedding in the late afternoon, followed by an evening reception. The day could not have been as successful without the fine cast of vendors that were selected by the couple:
