Megan is the best!! I debated getting a day-of coordinator because I knew I would be thinking about the setup of everything when I should have just been enjoying the day and Megan allowed me to do just that. We had a few meetings beforehand to go over details and when the day came she kicked it into high gear and handled literally everything without a hitch. She knows how to handle people and is so detail oriented. I cannot imagine my wedding day without her. Thank you Megan!! 3

Gabbie Burseth Photo 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $7,000
  • Serves Alpena, MI for additional fees

Gabbie Burseth grew up documenting everything and saving mementos in empty Christmas boxes. After studying at the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, she discovered an affinity for weddings and their accompanying treasures. Her philosophy as a wedding photographer is to observe with as little interference as possible — no faking it, no do-overs, no “for the camera”. Her biggest desire is for couples to be present at their wedding, not stuck in a photoshoot. Her work is punctuated by rich and vibrant color, the timeless quality of analog film, and a sense of humor found in fleeting moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Gabbie for our wedding and she absolutely blew us away. From the start, she was so easy to work with and got to know us, our story, and our style. We first had an engagement session with her, where she had a beautiful location in mind that fit our style perfectly. My husband and I were nervous because we're not used to being in front of the camera, but Gabbie's calm and fun nature put us at ease immediately. She has a way of creating certain moments that don't feel completely posed and resulted in absolutely stunning photographs that we cherish to this day. We were an original COVID couple (postponing our wedding a month before it was meant to happen in Spring 2020) and were so thankful that Gabbie was willing to work with us and all of the fluid changes we were dealing with daily. On the wedding day and all of the chaos that comes with it, Gabbie was a steady and calm voice amidst the craziness. She did a killer job despite dealing with on and off rain. She has this amazing ability to blend right in throughout the day while beautifully documenting our special moments. Once we received our complete gallery, we were speechless. The time and effort she puts in to selecting and editing every single image shows how truly invested and caring she is. She even managed to photograph little moments we didn't even notice her there for. She captured the spirit, love and fun of our wedding perfectly. I cannot recommend her enough!!

I was that kid enchanted by Disney Princess movies and the idea of "true love". My true love revealed itself through photography. At 8, I grabbed my dad's camera and was hooked, thrilled to show people my world. I started with zoo animals, friends, and siblings, eager to freeze moments in time. As I grew, I learned from local photographers and knew by 17 that photography was my calling. Since then, I’ve captured love in all its forms: couples, new parents, best friends, and the joy of seeing your favorite band live. The world is full of magical firsts, and I'm honored to capture these moments forever.

After meaning with many photographers for our wedding we went with Lollipop Media because of how comfortable Natalie made me feel right off the bat. I am very picky when it comes to how photos look and my goodness Ricky and Natalie knocked it out of the park!! We used them for not only our photography but also our videography and everything turned out fantastic. If you’re looking for light and airy photos with a bit of natural to it, Lollipop Media is your go to!! I couldn’t be happier with the album we received from them!!

Hi! Congratulations on your engagement! I'm Arielle and I want to photograph your wedding! I'm a fun loving lady that's totally in love with love. I have like 20 years of experience with a camera in my hand, and 7 years since I started shooting weddings full time. Rain or shine we're going to have the best day ever if you choose me to shoot your wedding. I grew up in Vermont and after traveling around and living in several different states I made my way back to Vermont where I posted up and started this wild photo business and I've never been happier to share my talent with you! I can't wait to meet you!

I've known Arielle for over 5 years now and can easily say that she's insanely kind, continuously fun, and wildly talented. She never hesitates to get the best shot she can while also making her clients feel as comfortable as possible. Her work speaks for itself, but each time I've worked a wedding with Arielle I've been impressed by the way she sees things and captures moments. If you're looking for a fun time, a genuinely awesome human, and a beautiful wedding gallery full of keenly captured moments, Arielle is your person!

Hey there, Hana here! I’m a Milwaukee based wedding and elopement photographer and the face behind Hello Hana Photography. Since starting my photography career, my number one goal has always been to make sure couples are 100% comfortable in front of my lens. Forget the days of stiff posing & fake smiles - NONE OF THAT HERE. I’m all about capturing the raw and real moments. The moments that you’ll look back years from now and still be able to relive every single second. Your wedding day is about YOU and I am determined to help make that happen. I truly believe that your wedding day should be unique and special, just like your love story.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we first reached out to Hello Hana Photography, we were impressed by her friendly and incredibly helpful communication style. Hana went above and beyond to ensure our engagement pictures were beautiful and that we felt comfortable during the whole process. As an interracial couple, we were worried about finding a photographer who knew how to make us both look our best, but the engagement photos she took exceeded all expectations. Hana also provided vendor recommendations and made herself available for any questions, going far beyond just the photography aspect. The final photos were nothing short of amazing - we are overjoyed with the results and would recommend Hello Hana Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience. We can’t wait for our wedding day & to continue working with Hana!

Hey there! I'm Nicole! I am a confident and raw documentary Detroit wedding photographer serving couples with enthusiasm and sincerity. I am uniquely gifted at blending into the background from center stage and guiding you through the day with ease. I believe that integrity and sincerity outweigh popularity. So, I'm focused on your desires and interests. Yes, I'm a professional wedding photographer who has been in the business since 2012 with published work, but it's not the "pretty" pictures that matter. It's you! You're the reason I started pursuing my passion over 8 years ago. ​

Nicole is an absolute dream to work with. Being a COVID wedding, she was there for us when every other week I reached out with a new plan and a smaller list. When COVID was at its peak, she provided the location we had our minimony and was so helpful throughout the entire process. I won't lie, getting to work with her for our small ceremony last year and our larger celebration was a blessing and I'm so sad our time with her is over... for now ;) but honestly she is the best choice to document your big day.

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about so much more than just hiring a professional to take your photos - it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your special day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a big celebration, my approach blends classic elegance with photojournalistic storytelling. More than photography, it's about building trust and celebrating love in all its beautiful forms—honoring every culture, story, and connection.

On the day of the wedding and through the prep leading up to the big day, her fun and friendly personality shone through. She was organized, calm, and seamlessly blended into the background while still guiding us through various moments. The quality of her work is truly outstanding; every photo is beautifully composed and tells a story. She has an incredible eye for detail, capturing not just the big moments but also the little, candid interactions that made our day unique. We are absolutely thrilled with the final images and grateful for the memories she helped preserve. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but genuinely cares about her clients, Sam at Golden Hour Images is the perfect choice.

From the very beginning, Cristal went above and beyond in her preparation, ensuring that every detail was meticulously planned. She took the time to understand exactly what each of us wanted, listening carefully to our visions and bringing them to life flawlessly. On the day of the wedding, Cristal's dedication truly shone through. She was not only professional and skilled but also incredibly warm and personable, making everyone feel at ease. She even provided thoughtful touch-up kits, which were a lifesaver and kept us looking flawless throughout the event. Cristal quickly became more than just our makeup artist; she became a friend. Her passion and talent are evident in every stroke of her brush, and I would highly recommend her to anyone considering a makeup artist for their special day.

My name is Ronda, a professionally trained hairdresser that has recently relocated to Michigan. I’m a wife, mom and dog-mama. When I’m not in the Midwest, my husband and I spend a few months out of the year in the Caribbean on the beautiful island of Antigua (“wink wink” to all my destination brides!). In my free time, I love traveling, going to the beach with our Frenchie named “Tigua” and sipping a spicy margarita. My mission is to continue to create beautiful looks for my Brides, share my knowledge with other aspiring hairdressers, and hopefully inspire others to manifest their biggest dreams.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot say enough great things about working with Ronda on my wedding day. From the very first time we met in person for my hair trial, we instantly clicked. She made me feel so comfortable and was just a blast to be around! (The hair trial went amazing. She took all of my ideas and pictures and truly brought my vision to life). Fast forward to the wedding day, we stayed in contact over the months so by the time I saw her on the big day, it felt like being around one of my best friends. My hair turned out even MORE amazing than the trial, as did all of my bridesmaids' hair. I received more compliments than I can even count on everyone's hair. If you are trying to figure out who to do your hair for your wedding, BOOK RONDA ASAP!! She was truly the best to work with!

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!
