There’s something so special about photographing weddings at Shepherd’s Hollow and this wedding was no exception. Being a Detroit wedding photographer, I loved being able to venture out to Clarkston, MI to photograph this unforgettable day for Susie and Tony.
The Ceremony at St. Hugo of the Hills
The wedding began at the beautiful St. Hugo of the Hills in Bloomfield Hills, where Susie and Tony exchanged their vows. One of the most touching highlights was when the couple recreated a wedding photo from Tony’s parents’ wedding.

After the ceremony, guests made their way to Shepherds Hollow for the reception. Shepherd’s Hollow is a breathtaking venue that is lined with towering pine trees and featuring a black exterior with large, beautiful windows. The checkered floors inside are to die for and added a touch of classic elegance. This venue is the perfect blend of classic and modern.
Shepherd’s Hollow was the perfect choice for Susie and Tony, as the venue provides an intimate setting but also allowed their large families to come together to celebrate. Family plays a huge role in Susie and Tony’s special day. Both come from large families, and their love was evident throughout the celebration.
A personal connection added another special touch to this wedding. I had the honor of photographing Susie’s sister’s wedding a few years prior. Something is so magical about seeing familiar faces during a wedding and being able to be apart of another beautiful wedding in this family.
Conclusion
Susie and Tony’s wedding at Shepherd’s Hollow was a day filled with so many unforgettable moments. From the ceremony at St. Hugo of the Hills to the stunning reception venue, every detail was perfectly curated to reflect their love story. It was a privilege to reconnect with their family and also to capture their wedding day.
