Sabrina Leigh Studios 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,400
  • Serves Big Bay, MI

Established in 2014. I have been a lifelong artist. In fact, when I was in 2nd grade, I said when I grew up I wanted to be an artist with insurance haha! I went to school at Northern Michigan University and got a BS degree in Art Education with a concentration in photography. While in college I started taking portraits and shot my first wedding in 2014. After teaching K-12 Art for three years, I was able to shift to become a wedding photographer full time in 2017. I am so grateful to have my dream job - I'm officially an artist with insurance!

These girls went above and beyond! Sabrina was available for any and all questions throughout the planning process and even helped organize our timeline for the day. She and her team could not have been more helpful, considerate, friendly, and enthusiastic about making our wedding day so special and perfect. They took so much stress off my shoulders, and I can't imagine leaning on any other photography team! Delaney and Mary are so welcoming and creative in their shooting techniques. They were generous with their time and talent. Delaney doubled as my "bride bag," kindly carrying my lip balm, lipstick, and phone during the day in her fanny pack. There were big issues with my dress's bustle, and Mary helped my mom and other female relatives make all the necessary adjustments. Things got pretty personal, but we made it through with lots of laughs! There were minor composition tweaks I requested in some of the previews; however, things are bound to line up a little funky in the moment sometimes. I'm also a graphic designer, so I'm admittedly picky. Regarding the contract, it was clear, concise, and fair to each party. Zach and I are so thankful for the time that Sabrina, Delaney, and Mary spent getting to know us and what kinds of photos we were interested in the most. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I am proud to announce the launch of my new business. One year ago I began the process of training & operating as a makeup artist. In the Spring of 2024 Jacqueline | Rose | Beauty was born. This business is truly my passion. I am excited to focus on makeup looks for bridal as well as soft glam styles for everyone for any special occasion.

Jacqueline was so friendly and welcoming from the second I stepped in. Her makeup area was adorable with perfect lighting and I was impressed with her large display of makeup she had. She was sure to clean and moisturize my face before starting and did exactly what I was wanting, taking time to let me see different options. She was easy to talk to and welcomed feedback. I am so excited and feel so confident in her doing my makeup for my big day! :)

Emily Diane Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Big Bay, MI

Based in Marquette, Michigan, I’m your introverted, homebody, oat milk latte, obsessed photographer. Oh, & I can't forget awkward! When I'm not building relationships & serving couples & families, you can find me hiking, sitting down by the Ore Dock, & photographing nature in the Upper Peninsula just like my father & I used to do when I was a little girl.

Working with Emily was an absolute DREAM. As a Wisconsin bride getting married in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, I was a little nervous about finding the right vendors for our small Copper Harbor wedding. However, after our initial conversation with Emily, we knew that we made the right choice. Right away, she sits down to chat with you about who you are individually, and as a couple so that she can understand how best to work with you, and to understand your big day a bit more. After the initial conversation with Emily, she works with you plan out a timeline that works best for everyone involved to start setting the expectations for your big day. Thankfully, Emily was so knowledgeable about the Copper Harbor area that she provided the best suggestions as to where to take pictures, and the best times to take them. She keeps every interaction light and fun, and makes sure that you are comfortable throughout each session with her. My husband and I look forward to working with Emily again in the future, and would recommend her to anyone!

Something Borrowed Blooms 

4.9

  • Florist
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Big Bay, MI

Thousands of brides across the United States and Canada have trusted Something Borrowed Blooms to provide the perfect flowers for their wedding day. We offer brides the expensive peonies, delicate ranunculus, out-of-season anemones, and the ever-impossible-to-find-magnolia — all at a fraction of the cost.

Just rent the flowers y’all - after getting multiple thousands of dollars in quotes from florists for our tiny dinner party wedding I started to look for other options. SSB had great reviews, in person or zoom consultations and a VERY helpful FB group that helped me pull the trigger even being pretty skeptical that the quality wouldn’t be there. Fast forward to the day I unboxed them and I was floored, some of the petals even FEEL REAL. Don’t know how they do it. Shipping was easy, fast and return labels were in sticker form to just pop back on. Our guests had no idea they weren’t real, especially with our low light reception it was impossible to tell. It was a breezed - we spent about 450 for 9 large centerpieces, bouquet and a few boutonnières for the guys from the Marlowe collection rather than the 2-3k quite well we’re getting from florists here in Atlanta that at the end of the day aren’t sustainable and would have looked the same (at best). Just rent the flowers y’all.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.8

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Big Bay, MI

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Flower Moxie was a great floral vendor. Their wide range of diy tutorials was very helpful, and our florist helped us form a vision for our wedding flowers. We were very happy with how our flowers turned out, and proud we could have a hand in diy-ing this aspect of our wedding.

Hi! My name is Josh Hale and I am the owner and main videographer/editor of Still Time Media, LLC. I spent 10 years as an investigative photojournalist and was nominated for four Emmys and won two! We love using ZOLA to find couples. Still Time Media has been creating cinematic film-style recaps of weddings since 2008, ensuring our clients are comfortable, relaxed, and most of all, happy with the final product. We want to give you something that takes you back to the happiest day of your life, so you can share it with friends and family for years to come. 

Awarded Best of Zola
Working with Josh was one of the smoothest processes about our wedding, which I am so thankful for. He made it clear what to expect and what we would be getting, how much it was, and when we would be getting our finished videos. He was happy to answer all questions and was easy to work with. His partner Watson made us very comfortable while capturing footage, and we were amazed at his determination to get all the best footage despite how hot it was during our outdoor wedding haha. We got all of our videos back super fast and I was crying all over again just watching everything! Josh did a great job creating a cinematic experience of our wedding with raw emotion and a love story vibe! I got to see perspectives that I missed at the wedding and moments that I didn't get to see, like my ring bearer's walk down the aisle or the funny entrances of the bridal party before the groom and I entered. Videography provides a way to capture moments that photography alone just can't, and I highly recommend brides to book a videographer. And booking with Josh and Watson at Still Time Media is the only way to go in my opinion! Thanks so much guys for the awesome work!

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

I did a boudoir session as a bridal gift to my husband, it was such a breeze and I felt so comfortable, although I was quite nervous, she made me feel like I was a pro! Our wedding day was behind schedule all day and with a bridal party of 21 it was a chore keeping everyone on point. They not only kept us going but also checked off all the must have shots for us.

I knew I wanted to work with Andrea immediately from viewing her work on her Instagram page. Her style was exactly what my husband and I were looking for in regards to how we wanted our wedding day documented. Every exchange and phone call with Andrea was as if I was talking to a life long friend who just happened to live 7 hours away. The first time meeting Andrea we also got to meet her assistant Shonda who was the one to shoot our wedding since Andrea was already booked for our date. We planned to view some location sites and ended up just sight seeing around the UP and having an amazing day! Andrea is so passionate about the UP and loves sharing amazing places and local stories with people she meets, we almost forgot we were looking for ceremony locations. We ended up doing a short engagement shot with Andrea which was so comfortable and relaxing and fun to do! Everything she directed us to do was natural and photographed beautifully. She always claims she’s awkward but don’t let her fool you. She will 100% get distracted by rocks, flowers, or mushrooms though, and if you have any interest in nature she is someone you should definitely work with. When our wedding weekend came around, there was some challenges with some strong winds, so the ceremony location the day before of the wedding needed to be changed. Andrea and Shonda scouted new locations for us and found the most beautiful location, it was so perfect I dare say it turned out better than the original location and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. Shonda was amazing to work with the day of the wedding, her and Andrea have similar personalities and work styles it was such a pleasure to have her shoot our wedding for us. More so it was SUCH a pleasure meeting these two amazing ladies who were played such an important part in our wedding day. I cannot recommend Lume Photography and Andrea and Shonda enough. They do everything they can to make sure your wedding day is all about you and your partner and make everything so relaxed for you, that you can focus on the love you share on your day.

What can I say about Amber… I could not have imagined a better photographer for our wedding! She was professional, excellent at communication prior to our big day, and best of all FUN! She was SO good with our kids and so accommodating. She legitimately felt like one of our guests while still somehow managing to capture every beautiful moment of our day. We have only seen our preview so far (just got marrie two days ago) but every single photo is gorgeous. Amber, I sincerely hope you read this and know how much we appreciate everything you did for us. You made me feel, and look, like a goddess, even though I had no idea what I was doing. I could not have asked for anyone better to capture our special day, and I can never thank you enough!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

We were lucky enough to have Chelcie and her team part of our wedding day! From start to finish, she went above and beyond.

She helped us come up with a great route for our photos and the best places to take photos. She took into account the experience of the bridal party and provided clear and helpful instructions.

Ever since childhood, I’ve been captivated by the power of photos and the stories they tell. Growing up, I’d lose myself in family photo albums, fascinated with freezing moments in time led me to photography, a medium that became my canvas for expressing emotions and creativity. What fuels my passion for wedding photography? It’s the profound belief in the power of love stories. In a world where adult milestones are fewer, the journey of marrying your best friend and soulmate stands out as a core memory. I find immense joy in capturing the moments when love, support, and celebration intertwine, creating memories that last a lifetime.

Taylor was thoughtful, communicative, supportive, and produced absolutely beautiful photos for our wedding. Working with her feels like working with a best friend. She is extremely easy to talk to, very accessible (we've texted a lot lol), and works with you to make your special day what YOU want it to be. She captured all the little details, the scenery, and the overall feel of our wedding just the way we wanted. We told her we wanted our photos to feel totally unique and cinematic, and she really delivered. Also, when my dress malfunctioned before I was supposed to walk down the aisle, she was right there being supportive and helpful, going above and beyond her photographer duties. Having someone who can go with the flow and make things happen for you on what can be a chaotic day really made a difference. She's awesome.

Hi I'm Katey! Your storyteller behind the lens, capturing the pure magic of love against the breathtaking backdrop of the Upper Peninsula and the serene shores of Lake Superior. I'm not just a photographer, I'm a hopeless romantic with a passion for freezing those genuine moments that not only make your heart skip a beat, but will last a lifetime. Based in the enchanting Upper Peninsula, I've fallen head over heels for the natural beauty that surrounds us. From lush forests to the pristine shores of Lake Superior, every location becomes a canvas for love stories to unfold.

OK... Right out of the gate, my first to do was to book my photographer. Katey was absolutely my number one go to, and I knew I had to try to get her for my wedding. From the first contact, to the end of the night and even to today she has been beyond superior. She worked so dang hard to keep us relaxed and captured everything I envisioned. She's calm, cool and collective. I can't say enough about her pictures, the way she captures the details that you wouldn't necessarily notice on your big day is incredible. I can't say enough about her and can't wait to book her for another shoot one day.

I looked at SO MANY wedding videos and they were all so similar and cookie cutter. They were lacking something but I couldn’t put my finger on it. THEN I FOUND JIMMY SHIN. I watched his videos and found myself sobbing at strangers videos! He made me feel like I knew the bride and groom after just 7 minutes. He's so good! Jimmy will take your wedding video and turn it into the most beautiful story. The video he made for us just so beautifully captured my husband and I's day! It's a video i'll cherish for the rest of my life. I can't wait for our kids to be able to watch it. UGH, seriously hire this man and you won't regret it. Best wedding money we spent. https://www.youtube.com/watch?viVAKZzODr6E

I am a storytelling and documentary elopement and wedding photographer based somewhat in Ludington, Michigan. I'm obsessed with nature, rocks, travel, and documenting everyday life. I love art & live music. I went to school for architecture and ended up obsessed with photography. I homeschool my kids and we spend most of our free time hopping from mountain bike parks to national parks to lakes between Michigan, Arkansas and Arizona and everywhere else we can.

I can’t recommend Jessica enough! She photographed our wedding and people continue to compliment us on our photos even years later. We have worked with her since, and each time she exceeds all expectation's. The photos always turn out natural and stunning, and she makes each session easy and effortless. I highly recommend working with her, you will not regret it!
