This was our last wedding of the 2010 season (whew!) and it was a great one to wrap things up with.  Sarah and Dave are just the coolest couple - we loved working with them!

getting ready at the Greektown casino/hotel - loved all her accessories!

their ceremony took place downtown at the beautiful Guardian Building - the art deco architecture made for a perfect backdrop for some romantical portraits!

Just HAD to share some favorites from our photobooth setup at Sarah and Dave's wedding last weekend.  This was our first time doing this, and it was so much fun!  It's really a great way to capture some incredible, pro-quality shots of your guests.

Here are just a handful of my faves - you can browse the entire album over on the abby rose photo facebook page

Check back soon for some faves from their wedding day ;-)

So when I first got the call several months ago about photographing a birthday party, I was picturing some cake and balloons in a backyard.  Not so much what these guys had in mind!  Cassie's sweet 16 was SUCH a fun and stylish party - plus I got to work with some of my favorite event peeps!  The whole thing was planned and designed by the lovely Alison from Viva La Diva - she basically transformed Cobblestone Farms into a chic nightclub (which is no small feat, if you've been to Cobblestone!). 

Amazing dessert table featuring goodies from sweet heather anne (photo of cassie by the fab myra klarman, florals by pot&box)
