Hi friends! I'm Chel, a 30 year old mama + wife to the sweetest boys. Loved ones would describe me as warm, bubbly, quirky, and down to earth. I started my photography journey at the end of 2014, and am entirely self-taught. I was born and raised in Traverse City, but moved down to Clio, Michigan 2 years ago! However, I continue to serve all of Michigan, TN, as well as locations around the US and worldwide. I am a coffee obsessive (think Lorelai from Gilmore Girls) with a joy for nature + traveling. I love reading, all genres of music (sucker for Luke Combs, Elvis, Benson Boone), true crime, cringe reality TV + psychological thrillers!

Hi, I’m Katy—a Michigan-based wedding photographer who loves to travel! I’ve been capturing love stories since 2016, blending vibrant, warm, and moody vibes with a mix of documentary, candid, and romantic styles. I’m a goofball at heart, so if you’re worried about feeling awkward in front of the camera, don’t be—we’ll have fun and create photos you’ll love. When I’m not behind the lens, I’m enjoying good food (send me your bar and restaurant recs!), live music, or cheering on the Detroit Red Wings. Let’s connect and tell your story your way!

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to begin? Finding Katy was truly one of the biggest blessings of our wedding process. It was very important to find a photographer who we felt had, and actively displayed, the ability to photograph in an inclusive, respectful and honest manner. We are an interfaith couple with family and friends who fall everywhere along the social, identity and religious spectrum. Once we found Katy, we were blown away by the love, care and diversity showcased in her portfolio. Upon meeting with her virtually, we were convinced that she was the right person. Katy is kind, understanding and VERY good at what she does. When it comes to the work, Katy was proactive without being pushy and really took to heart what we wanted out of our photos. Over the course of the experience, we were able to develop a real friendship with her because she is that good of a person. The day of the event, Katy was locked in and on top of everything. Prior to our weekend, she had done an amazing job of giving us prep sheets and coordinating as much detail as possible so the big day could just glide. Katy and her second shooter Jen (who was amazing, too!) were professional, fun and didn't miss a moment of the day. Everything from planned photos to impromptu shots felt fun and natural. Getting back the album completely blew past our expectations. Every photo captured exactly what we had discussed with her. So many photographs left us speechless. Katy should be at the top of your list if you want great photos full of love, care, and magic. She is down to earth and was the only photographer we spoke to that didn't make us feel like we were just another gig for them.

She goes above and beyond for you and she will definitely deal with any vendor issues you may have. Brittany is the main reason why my wedding vision was properly executed and brought to life.

They made everything feel so natural and easy, and honestly so much fun! There is no one I would recommend more than this amazing husband/wife duo, because honestly they made our entire wedding 100x better! To top it off, after the wedding they gifted us a box with the sweetest candid Polaroid pictures that brought me to tears. It was all just absolutely perfect! They also got us our sneak peaks immediately after the wedding, they were all just so perfect and beautiful!

We are so grateful for Kristen and all of her hard work. She was so knowledgeable and organized. She helped us every step of the way, our day went so smooth, and we were able to have fun and actually enjoy our day. She went above and beyond by sneaking photos onto my personal phone, saving us leftovers, and so much more. Best decision we ever made (besides get married!).

For those who seek more than just photographs, we offer a rare opportunity to witness the beauty of truth in its purest form.

I can’t put it into words how amazing of a person and photographer Faith was for our wedding July 2024. From getting engaged, to picking a venue, and trying to find our next most important vendor (photographer) it was stressful. Once we found Faith, i was passed feeling stressed and i was feeling relieved. She understood my vision, was receptive to my opinions. Faith was available for phone calls and answered so many questions i had along the whole way. She helped me with things big and small, and the day of the wedding her magic really began. She made me, my fiancé, bridal party and family feel SO comfortable, and my fiance said “i feel like a model” because the way Faith was directing and perfecting every shot. She made it fun, and memorable and we couldn’t have imagined our day without her. She was on her feet all day, hustling and was always excited to capture that next shot and hype us up. AND THEN WE GOT THE SNEEK PEAK, and i had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I was and still am speechless at her work. She captured moments we thought we would forget one day, and now we never will. Faith is everything we could have wanted and more. Thank you Faith for all you do. Can’t wait to book you for baby showers, birthday parties and have you be apart of our life’s crazy journey!

For as long as I can remember I have always loved to create. My passion for photography started when I was a teen. As I honed in on my craft I began to photograph on a more professional level right out of high school, but stepped away for academic pursuits. After completing both a bachelors and master's degree in Anthropology, I came full circle, determining that a career in doing something creative was where my heart lies. Whether it is your wedding, or any other special moment in your life, I cherish the opportunity to document it in a way that highlights the artistic elements, while still capturing an authenticness that is uniquely you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Alyssa was very communicative in advance of our wedding day and was receptive of any requests we had, travel to our venue and was quick to provide our photos to us following the wedding day. Alyssa is based in Tennessee but met us in Michigan for our wedding day. She is extremely kind and provides exceptional quality photos at a competitive price. We cannot reccomend her enough!

Treehouse Studios Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day! From the start, their communication style was fun, professional, and creative. The quality of their work was truly stunning - the photos they captured were detailed, professional, and exceeded our expectations. One example of how they contributed to our special day was that the photographer made sure to get couple shot with our direct family members who we had forgotten to include. Additionally, the sneak peeks we received were gorgeous and came promptly. We were greatly impressed by the value of their services, as the pricing was very reasonable for the amazing photos they delivered.

I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I'm also a musician and I help craft most of the music in the wedding films I create. I love working with couples that have unique personalities and styles. My work resonates the most with who it's made for, and I always keep that audience in mind.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was referred to Birch Fields by my cousin (who used Birch Fields for her wedding) 2 weeks before my June 2020 Covid wedding. We decided last minute to have the wedding even if it was just going to be immediate family. Because no extended family or friends were allowed at the time we wanted a way to record the day as if they were there. I had posted I was looking for someone to shoot on a VHS camcorder and film the whole wedding start to finish with no breaks just like old family videos we had growing up. Steven not only was up for the challenge, but spent his whole day capturing every detail of our wedding. We got copies of both 4k and VHS which is so special and cool. We were so impressed and absolutely loved Steven that we have since used him for my Sister-In-Laws baby shower and my Father-In-Laws 70s birthday party. Birch Fields is like family now!

We were so worried about finding the "perfect" photographer for our big day, but Kristen Thomison was an answer to prayer! She is a precious person who goes above and beyond to make sure the client has exactly what they want and envision. Before booking with her, she made me a Pinterest board of what her vision was for our big day based on our venue parameters and our personal wishes. This extra detail that she chose to provide helped me to feel settled in my decision, trusting we had the same vision! Furthermore, she gets to know her clients on a personal level so she can write our story pictorially. She is incredible and gives her heart and soul to what she does!
