Ashley + Jordan's 1 Year Wedding Anniversary | Interlochen Photographer

Interlochen is a great location for a photographer. There’s nature, water, and less tourists than Traverse City. It’s even better when you get to shoot at a private location. Ashley and Jordan decided for their one year anniversary to travel from Wisconsin to Interlochen, Michigan for some much needed vacation time together. Jordan’s grandpa used to work at the Interlochen Center for the Arts, this home was conveniently located not far from the art education institute. Nowadays, the home is a vacation house for the family to share and enjoy. Jordan used to visit a lot when he was younger but work got in the way the last few years to make a trip up to Northern Michigan so this was extra special to bring Ashley along.

Ashley and Jordan invited me out to Interlochen so I could capture some photos of the two of them in a home that was sentimental to the family. They brought out their anniversary present, it was a bottle of champagne gifted to them and then saved from their wedding. They popped the bottle for sunset, hung out in the home, lounged in their hammock in the backyard, and walked along the lakeshore. It was a hot day but good thing we had the water to cool down in.

This was quite the adventure and we didn’t even have to stray far from the home. They farthest we went was just down the road when Ashley and Jordan told me they were biking enthusiasts. Of course I wanted to capture them in their element so they got their pedal bikes out for a little adventure down the road. Keep scrolling to see all the beautiful photos that we captured in less than an hour.
