Kate English Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Crystal, MI

Hi I am Kate! I have a bachelor of fine arts in photography, and have been photographing weddings and elopements for around 5 years. There is nothing I love more that LOVE and all of the emotions that surround a wedding day. I am an LGBTQIA+ & BIPOC inclusive photographer, celebrating diversity is so important to me. I shoot both digital and film, and have a documentary fine art shooting style with a modern twist.

Kate went above and beyond on our wedding day to ensure our special moments were fully captured. Both on film and digitally, she understood the essence of our day and worked diligently to showcase that through final imagery. The film aspect was a sweet initial treat to receive. To see our day in a raw, one shot kind of experience. She was on time to her delivery of our final gallery and blew us away with her talent! Moody, clear and candid. Not to mention, she’s got a laugh that makes you laugh, a personality that allows you to feel yourself around and was professional from start to finish. She really cares for her clients and the work that she does. You can tell it’s more than just her business, it’s her entire heart! 100% recommend!

Tylee Shay Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Crystal, MI

I’m Tylee- a Michigan wedding photographer with a passion for marriage. As your photographer, I'll capture images that are timeless, romantic, and honestly illustrate your love for one another so that you will always remember exactly why you fell in love. Whether you're eloping just the two of you, or getting married in your favorite place with all your favorite people, I will capture the photos that will help you to cherish your marriage for a lifetime.

Tylee is one of the sweetest, most genuine people you will ever meet. It is very evident that she has a go-getter mentality and wants nothing but the best for her clients. For me, it was all the small things she does - - buying your favorite drink, playing fun music during the photoshoot, surprising you with a cute gift, always reaching out if I needed help, etc. - - that show how much she cares. Tylee also has loads of incentive and helpful advice for her clients. My husband and I actually used it to help write our wedding vows from scratch. I had the privilege of Tylee shooting both our engagement and wedding day photos. My husband and I were so happy with how everything turned out. It’s amazing how well she captures our true, authentic love in such a natural way. Tylee made the entire process enjoyable and stress-free. Even though the wedding day can be hectic, Tylee was so calming and intentional about making the entire day special. Tylee’s unmatched passion and uniqueness truly set her a part from others!

  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Crystal, MI

Hi, I'm Avery! I am West Michigan born and raised, with a bit of a roaming side. You can find me traveling the great outdoors, reading a good book or sunset watching at the lake. I thrive on God’s great love and creation. Farming runs deep through my family roots, so I guess you could call me a farm girl. I’m a homebody at heart, with a passion to adventure. I fell in love with photography when I picked up my mom’s old camera in middle school. I'd capture everything from blades of grass to the cattle on my farm. 5 years later, using my cattle as models has turned into photographing weddings and capturing everything from portraits to families.

Kaitlin Jude Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Crystal, MI

I am an intimate wedding photographer based out of my home state, the Mitten. To sum it up, I'm laid back, chill, and ready to hang out. I call myself an intimate wedding photographer because I work best with couples who want a smaller, more close-knit feel to their wedding day and because I offer my clients a sense of familiarity, and comfortability and help them feel relaxed and ready for the day ahead. By the end-we're great friends! My hope with every session I have is that you'll find not only the pictures beautiful but the shared experience one to remember as well.

My husband and I had the greatest experience working with Kaitlin, I cannot say enough good things about her! We both are not super comfortable being in front of the camera and she made the entire experience so comfortable for us and so fun! She brought the best vibes to our day and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer and wedding day hype girl! I am so lucky to have found her and we would love to work with her again!! I know booking with a vendor that you never met before can be stressful but Kaitlin made us feel so at ease and comfortable. Her portfolio really speaks for itself. She does amazing work and we LOVE how the pictures turned out as well! She just captured the day so perfectly! We highly recommend working with Kaitlin for your big day!

Alfield Reeves Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Crystal, MI

I am a Liberian-American portrait & editorial photographer based in West Michigan. I specialize in creating work that encourages self-reflection and expression, promotes equitable action and showcases the black and brown identity and culture. My images are warm, quiet and bold. They bridge traditional divides between photojournalism, portraiture and fashion. My work is featured in magazines and online platforms like Vogue Greece, Grand Rapids Magazine, Grand Rapids Business Journal, ProPublica, and The Trace to name a few. My work has been part of numerous exhibitions locally and statewide.

My husband and I got married in 2019. We booked Alfield for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The price is so worth the quality and experience you get when working with Alfield. We literally got our photos back the same week as our wedding. All of them were edited, even a physical photo box and custom-created album. Very professional, timely, and easy to work with. No hassle and I never had to worry about any of the logistics related to photography. Alfield seemed to have everything down to a science and every shot was perfect. He could walk around the city and with ease find beautiful shots. He is an artist and an incredible one at that. He had a small team on the day of the wedding, in order to capture both sides of the pre-wedding moments. Whenever I have a need for a photographer, I immediately reach out to Alfield, and can't see that changing unless he becomes unavailable. I have since done professional headshots with him, which came out perfect and just how I envisioned. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend hiring Alfield for any wedding photography or ANY photo needs for that matter. I couldn't be happier with all the work he has done for us. We are lifelong customers.

My name is Alicia, and I'm a designer/photographer living in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

We will treasure Alicia’s photos FOREVER. She was so amazing to have around on our big day and made us feel totally comfortable and at ease. We originally didn’t want to spend a lot of time on photos (we’d rather be hanging out with our family and friends!) but Alicia made taking photos so fun that we wanted to keep taking photos! We will really treasure these forever :)

After the guests leave and the twinkly lights come down, your wedding photos are the biggest way you'll remember your day. My goal is to create an album that transports you back to your wedding every time you look at the photos. forget about posing and feeling stiff in front of the camera. Imagine going on a walk with an old friend, who just happens to have a camera with them. My process is free and flowy, and my only goal is to capture your true self.

I will be booking her for any photos opportunities I have going forward! She took my engagement and wedding photos this past year and I have loved them all! I have gotten so many compliments on all the photos and how they turned out! My wedding day was so grey and raining but looking at my photos you'd never know! She was so personable and friendly and easy to work with. I can't rave enough!

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

I was so pleased to work with OLAS. When I got engaged I had several photographers in mind and felt very discouraged when I found out they were all booked for my wedding day. I came across OLAS online and was hesitant to use a "photography company" but they blew my expectations out of the water. They were so responsive, so communicative. I felt like it was just me they were working with. The best part was picking out the photographer I wanted and she was a dream fit. We had so much in common, she was easy going but she helped keep us right on schedule the day of the wedding and ensured that I got all the special moments captured that I wanted to. And the photos are stunning. I spent an entire day just looking at them over and over, reliving the most perfect day ever! Thank you OLAS and Dana for capturing moments that will live on forever. You guys are the best.

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.

Jessica does more than take great photos, she makes the whole experience great! I messaged her on a whim about elopement pictures, I had found her work on a blog post and fell in LOVE! She worked quickly to find a date that worked for us both. She was more than just a photographer, it felt like she was my wedding planner. She sent information on boutiques to find a dress, vendors, and hairstylists. She always kept in touch whether through messaging, phone calls, or meeting in person. When the elopement day was finally here, she made sure to meet up with me before getting ready. When I didn’t like my updo, she got her own styling tools to help me fix my hair. It felt like I had my best friend there, not a photographer. She knew all the right locations for photos and was extremely adaptable when things didn’t go as planned. She was very go with the flow, but always present, which I appreciated. The turn around time for my elopement album was very quick, maybe 3 weeks max. They were flawless and exceeded my expectations! I will be using her again!

I captured my first wedding in August of 2018, it was the day I fell head over heels in love with wedding photography. It's all about capturing the love story for me..the feels from beginning to end. When you book with AGS, you're signing on for an adventure. Your engagement session is a celebration full of us getting to know one another, lots of laughter, and having fun! As your wedding nears closer AGS will help with your timeline, connect with your vendors ( or introduce you to some of the best) and help plan out the perfect photo locations, along with any other needs to create the perfect day.

I am a bit late, by bit maybe a lot... but we got married in September. Not only did Arleigh keep me grounded, but she was such a help with introducing me to an amazing wedding planner. Since day 1, Arleigh listened to my needs and worked with me to create the perfect package withing my budget. On our first meeting Arleigh was straightforward, communicated well, was professional and really made us feel so secure in our decisions. The day of, she was on top of every detail and moment, and although to me it went by in a blink, she captured every special moment with warmth and feeling. Our album came arrived within 2 days after we placed our order, and as I looked through our album, it was like reliving every moment all over again. Friends and family loved working with Arleigh and Joanna the day of. Everyone loved our photos, that I was even asked by something borrowed blooms to be featured in their marketing ads. If you are looking for beautiful, romantic, and just great aesthetic photos, Arleigh is your girl!!!!!

I’m Katy, a Michigan based wedding + event photographer who loves to travel. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016. My love for photography started out when I was about 6 years old. I’m a huge goofball, so if you’ve ever thought “I’ll be too awkward in photos," I know what you mean. We can be goofballs together, and I promise I won’t let you look awkward in any of your photos. A little more about me: I'm a foodie. Send bar/restaurant recommendations please! I spend a good portion of my time at concerts when I'm not photographing anything. I'm also a HUUUUGE Detroit Red Wings fan!

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.

Communication was amazing- he doesn't take long to respond and is easy to get ahold of.
