Maddie & Tyler - Forest Elopement

Maddie & Tyler had SUCH a gorgeous elopement right here in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Their Michigan forest elopement was on the perfect dreamy day to capture some glowy photos. We took these photos during the turn of the fall season, and it actually ended up snowing! It was the first snow of the season. Even though the day was cold, Maddie & Tyler trooped through it! <3

I love these two so much. Check out their beautiful Michigan forest elopement photos below.
