LINDA + RANDY

Metro Detroit Michigan wedding photography at Zingerman's Cornman Farms provided by Kellie Saunders and her team of the best wedding photographers in Michigan.

As much as I want this to be a blog post telling everyone all about Linda and Randy's Zingerman's Cornman Farms wedding day, I have to switch things up a bit this time. I can't stop smiling when I think of their day. Even editing their photos was a joy. I have never met two people like Linda and Randy - EVER. I decided I wanted to tell them exactly how I feel about them and their wedding in the letter below.

Dear Linda and Randy,

I really just love you guys! I don't know any other way to say it except to come out and say it. I've witnessed many love stories in my time as a wedding photographer. To be completely honest I don't really know your exact story. We met over the phone and again in person on your wedding day. I didn't have a lot of time to really get to know you guys or your backgrounds before your big day. Coming into your wedding I thought it would be a normal wedding day. But you guys, your wedding for me was ANYTHING but business as usual. Your love - it moved me. You are good people. Real people. Geniune, kind, loving and fair. You love each other, you love your friends and families and they love you. How couldn't they love you? You put them and everyone else before yourselves. This is what I saw. You are unselfish, considerate, authentic and wise. There's absolutely NOTHING not to love about either of you. You both laugh from your heart and you smile with your soul. I'm not sure if you know that outsiders can see this or not, but we can and we do. That's what I saw in both of you.

You told your friends and family not to bring gifts to your wedding. You had no card box because you wanted to nail this point home. You just wanted people to celebrate with you. And when you gave your speech - you told them that this day was about THEM not you. It was about celebrating THEIR support and love for the two of you. You wanted to throw this party for them. Never have I felt so much love from a group of people. I could feel the energy - the kindness you had for your family and friends. It was nothing short of beautiful. I could not hold back my own tears, so I let them flow and let my mascara run. I had to rely on my camera's autofocus because my eyes were a bit watery during your speech. Thank god it worked. :-)

I just want to thank you both for sharing your day with me. Showing me what selfless love is. Showing me how good people can be. I'm old. We get cynical as we age (which some of you reading this know). But Randy and Linda, you made me a believer in goodness once again. I will forever be greatful for photographing your wedding. You actually gave me a gift. Please enjoy my favorite images from your wedding.  XOXOXOXO Kellie
