Promani Weddings was an incredible find for our wedding!

Hey! I’m Emily, (and Kyle is my middle name, in case you were curious). I'm your cat loving, adventure chasing, ride or die friend and photographer on your wedding day and beyond. I am all about the relaxed and real, here to preserve your moments, not poses. I want you to relive the heartbeat and the happily unplanned of your wedding or elopement day with your future family, over and over, which is why your love will be exquisitely, candidly, and genuinely captured, leaving you actually having fun instead of holding a cheesy smile. I'm Detroit-based with roots in Baltimore, Maryland and LOVE to travel, so I'll go anywhere your love takes you.

Emily was outstanding!! She's so friendly and very talented. With the package my husband and I picked, we got to spend time with her during our engagement session and also had a one on one meeting to go over our wedding day schedule. We really got to know her and genuinely enjoyed spending our wedding day with her. Even guests committed on how fun yet professional she was. We 100% recommend!!!!

Chettara T. Photography 

5.0

Detroit, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

I’m addicted to capturing who you are and your tale as it unfolds (the photojournalistic approach gives me life). I can occasionally be found sipping on bubble tea while indulging in Doctor Who, Sherlock, or Merlin marathons. Being diagnosed with Lupus at 16, I had to give up my ultimate goal of being a pilot in the Air Force. After my first year of Law School, I felt a bit empty and sat down to take a serious look at my life. I never saw it as a career path and pretty much wrote it off until 2016. I'm extremely blessed to be able to work with so many amazing people. Full: www.chettaratphotography.com/about

It was such a pleasure working with Chettara for our tiny wedding/elopement. We couldn’t be happier with our photos! She has a great eye for the candid moments which are our favorite photos in our gallery. Your wedding day is such a blur, Chettara helped capture every little detail we wouldn’t ever want to forget. Chettara doesn’t only bring her talent to your wedding day but her beautiful personality. Chettara met us on the morning of our wedding day with hugs, laughter, and smiles. Chettara helped keep the stress levels low so we could focus on the important stuff. Chettara’s creativity and passion for her work are evident in every single photo. I would highly recommend Chettara for any of your photography needs.

Genevieve Devries Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Detroit, MI

I’m an IT professional by day, a photographer by night, a mom & wife every second of the day. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m married to my soul mate and together we have two young, rowdy boys that we have LOTS of fun with. I grew up in Argentina and that’s shaped me in more ways than I can explain. I have a deep rooted connection to people & places and often wear my heart right on my sleeve. I am very ‘laid-back’ & focused when in a photo session. I do more looking than talking to make sure I get the vision just right. I provide specific direction when it’s needed and vague direction to get the intimate candids.

I had no idea our small, low-key wedding could look so incredibly beautiful. The finished photos ooze sophistication, refinement as well as fun! Not bad for a simple courthouse wedding! If you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further. Genevieve did everything she could to empower and coach us into really just feeling like our best selves. At no point did we feel self-conscious. We will treasure these photos forever. Thank you, Genevieve DeVries Photography

Amber Marie Photography

Detroit, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

I have always loved telling a story through photographs. Since high school I've been obsessed with taking pictures. That obsession carried on into my college ambitions and I ended up with a BFA in Photography from the College For Creative Studies. Since graduating in 2011 I started freelancing and soon wedding and portrait photography became my calling.

We’ve only seen the preview photos from our wedding and they are beautiful! Each shot perfectly captures the emotions of the day and we’re so grateful to have these memories preserved. Amber truly felt like a friend from the start, which made the entire experience so comfortable and easy for us -- a couple who has never been in front of a camera together. She blended in effortlessly with our guests and we received many compliments from family and friends about how great she was. During the family photos, she was helpful with making sure everything went smoothly while kindly managing the "list" when others tried to jump in for a photo. We can't wait to see the rest of our photos and look forward to having Amber capture our next "milestone" photos. Amber, thank you for being such an important part of our wedding day and for capturing our day so beautifully!

Hey! Hello! What's happening? I'm Erika, owner and lead photographer of It Clicks Photo. I love learning about your love story, how you knew your significant other was the one, and any embarrassing stories you two have endured over time. I'm sure I have a few I feel the need to tell you about, too! I'm a very accepting, down to earth lady who values and appreciates your authentic- straight to the core- self. Capturing your wedding day fills me with life, and makes me feel all butterfly-ish and bubbly inside. Can't wait to meet you both! (PS- I love to travel! There isn't a place I won't go- honestly.)

Erika has been my favorite photographer to work with since we met a few years ago. I just love her work! As a DJ it is important to be able to work well with vendors. Especially the ones capturing the big day. It has always been very easy for me to work with Erika and her team so I recommend her every chance I get. I have noticed over the years that she is naturally a creative fun and easy going person which in my opinion is always a great quality for a wedding professional. I look forward to working with Ericka and the whole itclicks team for years to come.

As a local and destination wedding photographer, I specialize in a documentary style that captures your day as it unfolds—real, raw, and timeless. More than just a photographer, I’m your go-to girl for everything on this important day—whether it’s fixing a veil, calming nerves, or hyping up your dance moves. My priority is making you feel comfortable and at ease, so you can focus on what matters most: celebrating your love. By building genuine connections and keeping the experience fun and relaxed, I create heartfelt images that tell your story and preserve memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Lindsay took the most beautiful engagement photos for me. From the consultation, to the shoot day, to delivery of pictures, she went above and beyond. Our session was mid-summer, and one of the hottest days of the year, but you couldn't tell that in the pictures! She made our session so personable and unique. I chose Lindsay because her photos capture so much more than just the people in it -- she captures a moment, a mood, an experience, a story... its not just a picture, its like a work of art! She will forever be my go-to photographer!

As an award-winning wedding photographer, I've photographed over 200 weddings and I've worked with some of the most prominent studios in Michigan.
