Heather Stern Photography, LLC

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,900
  • Serves Carleton, MI

HI! I'M HEATHER. WHAT'S UP? I'm a wedding photographer who's an empath - you know what that means? Not only do I have some social anxiety swirling around in here, I also can tell when you don't feel comfortable. AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?

Heather was my wedding photographer, and she did an exceptional job! From our engagement photos to our wedding photos, my husband and I are overwhelmed at how much we love these pictures (and that is saying A LOT because we never like ourselves in pictures! Lol) Heather does an amazing job at keeping the energy going while also keeping the vibe lighthearted and chill. We felt comfortable being ourselves in front of the camera. She is there for whatever YOU want. She helped me immensely with the timeline of my wedding day, and even would hop on phone/video calls with me if I had any questions or concerns leading up to my wedding day. My husband and I wanted our dog to be included in both our engagement and wedding photos, and Heather did a great job capturing his personality and spirit. We will cherish these photos forever!

Very easy to work with and accommodating in every way! This company takes care of of so many aspects too, I loved that I could rent candles/stands/votives and it was all Included in a great price. I also love that they provided some inspo options when I wasn’t sure how I wanted things (ex: sweetheart table) and Included options at different price points. Really couldn’t recommend them enough. I really felt like we were taken care of throughout the whole process. It also put me at ease that my photographer had a great experience with them in the past as well! I also love their mission and that a portion of their profits are donated! Very very pleased

The video portrayed my work, in a way that directly aligned with my brand and ultimate vision for my company. I am still swooning over it, months later. Kyla also took my professional headshots. It is very rare to find someone who knows your angles immediately and portrays you as if you took the photo yourself! Her work is flawless. She will always have my business.

My love for photography started when I was young, and flourished as I continued to educate myself in the art and technicalities of photography while attending the College for Creative studies where I received my BFA in Photography in 2016. I absolutely LOVE love, and my biggest goal on your wedding day or during your session is to make sure you're constantly smiling, laughing, and enjoying every moment you experience. I love all of the little moments in life, and I try to showcase those emotions and feelings through every image I capture. I'm based in Lower Michigan, but I am more than happy to travel worldwide for you!

Chrissy is BEYOND AMAZING to work with - her photos are dreamy, whimsical, magical and make your heart so happy to look at! She was our photographer for our engagement photos, a boudoir shoot, and our wedding photos. Not only is she talented, but she is intelligent, creative, and flexible. Every photo-related snafu we had (including an engagement photo session where we forgot one of our outfits), Chrissy had a solution and handled it with grace. Chrissy is customer-service oriented, communicates clearly and effectively, and is kind and comforting as most of us are not used to having professional photos taken! If you are looking for an awesome photographer, look no further - Chrissy is your girl!

Hey there! I’m Dakota, and I am the face behind the camera. I’m married to my adventure companion and partner in everything. We are blessed with two very daring and creative kids, I’m sure you’ve seen 1 or 2 pictures of them, Sawyer and Dax. I have a mad case of ‘Wanderlust’ and if I am not chasing after my littles, or working – we are probably on or planning an adventure. I am pretty pumped to meet you and help capture the moments that mean most to you!

Dakota and Meghan were amazing to work with! They made taking photos a breeze by being upbeat and fun. They brought some great ideas for poses and locations near our venue that they've used with other clients and listened to some ideas that we wanted to incorporate. Sunflower has a great questionnaire that they provide before the wedding to capture all the details about our day, including a shot list and who we wanted for family pictures. This made the family portraits a quick process on the day of our wedding since they knew who we needed to grab to take photos. My special needs son hates having photos taken, being the center of attention, and loud noises. They worked with him to get him to smile and to move through the photos we wanted to include him for as quickly as possible to capture the special moments while making him comfortable. We received sneak peeks the next day and can't wait to see the rest of our photos!

When you choose a Sweet Heather Anne cake for your wedding, you're choosing a piece of art created just for you. Our cake designers draw on their pastry knowledge and artistic experience to create stunning designs that fit flawlessly with the rest of your wedding. Follow along on instagram (sweetheatheranne) to see our latest creations!

Sweet Heather Anne made the cake for our September 2022 wedding and it was absolutely amazing!! They made the whole process so easy and the cake was BEAUTIFUL. We gave Heather freedom to make a design that fit to our wedding colors and mood board and she knocked it out of the park. Our cake had sugar flowers on it which were so realistic that many guests thought they were real flowers. The best part is that the sugar flowers were saved when the cake was cut, so we actually still have them now in a vase as decoration in our home, which always reminds us of the beautiful day :) We had two flavors: chocolate praline and blood orange olive oil. I am something of a cake snob and would never serve a cake made with american buttercream at my wedding. SHA makes a swiss meringue buttercream that uses local dairy ingredients! The cake was so delicious and our guests raved about it, especially the blood orange olive oil flavor. The chocolate praline was my personal favorite. You can't go wrong with SHA! We give them 10/5 stars! 3

I've been specializing in weddings for nearly 15 years. My style includes capturing the many genuine moments that occur during the wedding day in an unobtrusive and low key way. Documenting the day in an artistic and non cheesy way really tells the story of a couple's big day. I feed off the energy from couple's and their guests and craft a story of their day through photos. On a personal note, I have a loving wife, 3 kids and 2 dogs!

Matt is by far one of the best single shooter photographers I have ever met. He is everywhere he needs to be to get all of the amazing shots you want. He is so easy going and professional! You will love every single picture he takes and it will be hard to pick what ones you will want in your wedding album, and on your walls. He gets to know you on a personal level and listens to what you want. He is the best!!

Hey ! I went from a hobby photographer to a professional a few years back. Weddings are my favorite things to photograph. Getting to see my couples love story head into the next stage amazes me. I have been a full time wedding photographer for 3 years now.

We really loved working with Shawnia. The photos were gorgeous and her turnaround time is pretty incredible (one day for sneak peeks and less than two weeks for our full gallery). Loved her so much we also booked for my son’s senior photos. Communication was good, she pointed out problems in our timeline in terms of how it would impact photos and we really appreciate that honesty. Poses never felt fake, awkward, or uncomfortable. And she was super easy to talk to. Wedding shoots all come with a second shooter, and you also get the full gallery of photos. Everything just felt natural.

We are so glad we found Jazz for our elopement photography in Vegas. After initial enquiry and chat over email, Jazz arranged a Zoom call so that we could 'meet' her, which we really valued as it was so important we picked someone we truly vibed with, especially as we had no family or friends joining us so photos were all we would have to share with them. Jazz did an amazing job of capturing us and the Vegas vibes we really wanted. Her photography style really suited our colourful aesthetic without being too harsh or vibrant, exactly what we were after. Jazz kept things fun and light, she had hilarious tactics to make us laugh at the right moments (required for two awkward Brits like us haha) and she chose excellent photography spots based on our mood board. We couldn't recommend Jazz more!

No one in my family was necessarily comfortable in front of the camera, but Madalyn has a way of calming people and getting them to relax. We have beautiful posed photos from our wedding, but some of my favorites were the natural, candid shots! Additionally, she is always responsive and timely; she delivered sneak peeks of our pictures just days after our wedding, and the rest of our photos came exactly when she set the expectation for delivery.

I cannot say enough good things about Trevor Ritsema Photography, so this is going to be a long review. Trevor and his wife Melissa are amazing! My husband and I are so happy we were able to have Trevor and Melissa capture our day! They didn’t miss a beat! My husband and I are pretty awkward when getting our picture taken, but Trevor and Melissa are so easy going and made the experience fun! I was nervous for family photos because everyone is excited and getting everyone together is a lot like herding squirrels, but Trevor had a system and we had them done in 20 minutes! My sister in law was 8 months pregnant and wasn’t feeling well, so she left family photos and went to the reception before we could get pictures with her. Trevor noticed she was missing and found her later to get a picture of her and my brother. I thought that was so nice of him to do. Trevor sent us some sneak peaks a few days after our wedding and sent us all our photos 5 weeks after our wedding which was faster than his estimated time. He sent us over 1300 photos and they are all gorgeous! My husband and I had so much fun looking at all the photos and reliving our day! Trevor is very responsive through email and text and answered all of my questions in depth. One of my bridesmaids got engaged shortly after our wedding and, after seeing our sneak peaks, she loved the photos so much she booked him for her wedding! Trevor Ritsema Photography is phenomenal!!

Hi, I’m Kirsten, the creative heart behind Kirsten Wray Photography! Since 2008, KWP has been capturing life’s most amazing moments, right here in Indianapolis and beyond. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ball State University, I followed my passion for photography to the vibrant city of Indy, where I’ve been telling stories through my lens ever since.

Hi! I'm Danielle. I'm a Midwest elopement and intimate wedding photographer. Currently based in a small suburb just outside Detroit, Michigan, but available for travel anywhere! I have had a love for creating for as long as I can remember. When I was little, I drew everything as I saw it and I think that's why photography feels so perfect. It's an absolute dream to be an artist by trade and capturing special moments is a job I take to heart.

Kindred Light has a way of capturing the moments you can't plan. Any photographer can capture those planned shots - those do not speak to their ability. Danielle has an eye and ability to capture the moments that speak the emotions without words, sounds, or captions. Being able to capture personality, emotion, expression, desire, and intent is something rare to find. Being able to have those moments/memories capture from our weddings is something we are forever grateful for! There is not a monetary value that you can put to those moments/memories!!!

Hi! We’re best friends who’ve combined our love of gardening + floral design to create something magical right in the middle of the city. Our designs are inspired by our beautiful backyard garden and filled with lots of lush greenery. We love to create elegant bouquets with lots of texture and movement.

Sparrow Bloom Co provided the florals for our April 2021 wedding at Venue3Two in Grand Rapids, and I would recommend them to anyone! We first contacted Sparrow Bloom after we saw their AMAZING work on Instagram. The style of their blooms stood out to us instantly. We were looking to work with a company who could bring our vision to life and they exceeded all of our expectations. During our initial consultation with Becca + Kait, they were so detailed and created a beautiful vision board. They were always responsive and detailed. On our wedding day, Becca + Kait arrived early to set up. When myself, my mom, my sister and MIL walked in the room, we immediately had tears streaming down our faces. The room was absolutely STUNNING because of the floral design! When people see our wedding photos, the response is always “who designed your floral?” because they were that beautiful! Breathtaking. I will forever cherish the designs that Becca + Kait created. If you’re looking for a wedding florist, Sparrow Bloom will exceed all of your expectations!

We hired Scarlet Ace Media for our wedding and Avery was our videographer. He was so amazing to work with! He made us feel so comfortable while he was shooting and all of his shots looked so natural. He met with us before the wedding to make sure he understood our vision for our video. Our wedding video exceeded all our expectations and was absolutely perfect! He captured every single moment of our day, even the small details. When you watch the video you feel like you can relive the entire day all over again. The way he edited our video made it feel like a story with the way he edited in our vows and speeches throughout the video. Every person that has watched our wedding video has been brought to tears. I highly recommend hiring Scarlet Ace Media and Avery as your wedding videographer!

Sahil and Mannar made our wedding reception so special. They had three different setups around our venue and moved as the party moved to other parts of the venue - they were instrumental in guiding the flow and vibe of the party. They played amazing jams and read the room super well. They were easy to communicate with before the event, and very flexible during the event as well. We’re so glad to have hired Sugar Events, highly recommend them!
