Often people leave Thanksgiving weekend reserved for family, but what about your new additions? Jocelyn and Tiroca took this holiday period to celebrate two big occasions. First, the Thanksgiving itself, and the day after — their joyous wedding held in St. Claires Shores, Detroit, Michigan.

The chilly winds that day put a little damper on our outdoor shooting plans, but everything else from the preparation to the reception was exceptionally blissful. At the end of the day, I was glad to be an instrument in preserving those memories.

Hope you enjoy the photos, and feedback most welcome!
