Hi! I'm Morgan and I am a West Michigan based photographer/photography business. Photography has become my very own love language and making people happy through photos brings me joy. I believe in capturing the authentic moments of every session, making each one and their photos unique to you. I also love to explore new places and am willing to travel - literally anywhere! My resume from over 7 years of experience includes professional dress fluff-er, boutonniere pin-er, giggle inducer, cheerleader, and "oh shit" moment fixer.

Oh Shoot Photography

  • Serves Dowling, MI

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.

Trevor Ritsema Photography is made up of Trevor who is the photo and editing guru and Melissa who is my second shooter and business behind the scenes lady. With over 12 years of happy couples, dazzling photos, thousands of laughs, some tears (mostly good), and counting! Here, I keep it fun, light, and authentically you! I believe in preserving the adventure of life. From the big “I do” milestones to everyday family moments, I know how much value a single photo can hold. Let’s preserve those memories the way they should be: Natural, real, and just how you remembered it, while having a good time and good laughs.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!!

We're Jenna & Joey, a Husband and Wife team based in Michigan. We got married in May of 2020 (yes, in the middle of the pandemic). You'll often either find us at a coffee shop, the nearest burger joint or curled up in bed binge-watching New Girl while eating allllll the snacks. Oh, and we can't forget that we're dog parents to our favorite girl, Nala who is always trying to snuggle close.

Jenna was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding. We booked an engagement session and 8hr coverage from her for our wedding day with a second shooter. She ended up being sick the day of the wedding and texted us already with a plan in motion for another shooter to come in her place. When they got there they knew absolutely every single detail I ever spoke about with Jenna. It couldn’t have been more like if Jenna was there herself. She even got us around 25 photos as a sneak peek the very next day! We have talked so much since the wedding that we have absolutely zero bad things to say about the photographers and how easy they made the entire day go. Absolutely loved Jenna and her whole team and have already discussed booking with her for any future photography we might need!!

  • Serves Dowling, MI

Hi I'm Patty, your wedding photographer. I am based in West Michigan and spend over 50% of my season servicing Detroit & Chicago couples. Along with servicing the Michigan and Chicago market, I have slowly begun to expand my territory to include destination work with places like Texas, Virginia, Florida and Spain. I serve couples who understand that this season is one worth being celebrated and remembered. The couples who embrace their family and their people however that looks. Most importantly I serve those who see these photographs as an investment into their legacy.

Choosing Patty to be our photographer was the greatest decision we’ve ever made! From the moment we met her to receiving our wedding photos, Patty was INCREDIBLE. She made a wonderful effort to get to know us before our engagement shoot. Not only is Patty a phenomenal photographer, but she has also become such a sweet friend - going as far to lend me her Hulu password so we could be caught up on How I Met Your Father together. I felt like she understood our style and matched our energy wonderfully. During our engagement shoot in Saugatuck, Michigan, I was insistent we went to the beach to take some photos. Little did we know it would be a nearly mile hike in the heat of summer to get there. Despite sweating our butts off, Patty had a smile on her face the entire time and was incredibly professional. The photos were breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. During our wedding day Patty was there for every special moment, big and small. We didn’t worry once about the photos because we knew we were in wonderful hands. We had about 225 guests and both have big families, Patty was able to manage all of us during our family portraits! Patty is such a genuine person with a remarkable eye and talent. We can’t recommend Patty enough to be your wedding photographer!

My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
I absolutely love working with Abigail and her partner!! Abigail was able to not only help keep us on track and on time with all of our timeline, but also was very helpful with questions or calming our nerves. We had a blast working with her and the photographs came back perfect! I appreciated the posed pictures along with the off guard pictures as well and it truly makes me happy looking back and being able to cherish all the memories through pictures. I will always recommend Abigial and her services, I know she does beyond great work with her time and dedication to her career.

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.

Like most couples, our happily ever started with an elaborate vision of a dream wedding but months after planning we were left feeling incomplete.

Her listening skills are impeccable and attention to details makes her a true artist. Upon meeting Jed and Dani, we knew we made the right choice. We love their energy and connection, so natural.

Time stood still and there was only our forever. Our decision to elope was the most beautiful testament to our love. Our pictures take our breath away with every look.

I grew up in a small, rural town in Southern Michigan where I married my high school sweetheart. I first dabbled in photography in high school but perfected my craft while living on a Marine base in California where my husband was stationed. It was here that I was able to capture special moments for friends who became family and those wanting memories to last forever. I have since moved back to my hometown, where I raise my two beautiful daughters with my husband. Quickly, I learned that weddings are my passion in photography and I want to continue to help others capture the best day of their life! I simply love love!

I'll let Courtney, one of their past clients speak here, "I cannot thank the Well Told Weddings Team enough for all of their talents used to make our wedding day beyond perfect. Steve was great to work with start to finish, very transparent & dedicated to ensuring our day went perfectly. We had Dre as our DJ who guests are still raving about to us a month and a half post wedding! Sal and Austin did an outstanding job capturing photo and video. We will cherish these memories for a lifetime! Cheers to Well Told Weddings, highly recommend!"

I'm a love storyteller from Grand Rapids, Michigan. I primarily photograph weddings and engagements in and around the Midwest as well as destination weddings. I aim to tell love stories as honestly, candidly and uniquely as possible and I hope those attributes come across in my imagery. I firmly believe Love is Love and that everyone deserves beautiful images. I promise I will go above and beyond for you and be genuinely invested in your photographs far beyond just taking pictures. I've told hundreds of love stories and I hope to tell yours one day.

It is really hard for me to put into words just how amazing Katie and her husband Matt are. We found them through our friends who used them for their wedding. We knew we wanted to do a destination wedding, and our friends had attended one the year before in Jamaica which Katie and Matt photographed. Because of that wedding, they chose them to be their photographer for their wedding in Michigan. After we saw the photos from the destination wedding and our friend's engagement photos we knew they would be perfect for us. After we saw our friend's wedding photos we knew made the right choice. Katie and Matt from the beginning were super helpful and were incredibly integral on our wedding weekend and day. When they arrived in Mexico, they met up with us and started to work immediately. They came to our rehearsal helping us decide where to put our camera for filming the ceremony and other helpful advice for the day of. They helped find the PERFECT first look location. On the day of the wedding, Katie and Matt were energetic and came ready to help put us to ease. Katie and Matt just have a way of making you feel at ease and then make you look like models. They did a great combination of classic portraits but a lot of candid photos mixed in (which were my favorites). They stayed through the our whole reception and the photos we got look out of a bridal magazine. We had a secondary shoot the day after as a Trash the Dress photo shoot, and the sunset photos we got look like post cards. The only down side of using Katie and Matt is that they gave us too many photos we want to print and get framed! Book them for your destination wedding (or Michigan wedding) and you will absolutely be making the best decision!

I have worked alongside Sydney multiple times at weddings around Michigan and have seen a lot of her process. I can tell you she is big on quick communication and making sure every expectation is clearly defined and communicated prior to the wedding. This is key when you're trying to plan your wedding day and make sure that everything is laid out to be not only efficient but also get you the kinds of photos she's displaying on her website. On the day of the wedding she is always calm, yet at the same time, directive, in a chill and friendly kind of way. She helps everyone relax and enjoy the day, which is a big thing considering the photographer is the person that the wedding couple is going to be around for the vast majority of the day. I know that even though she is a busy photographer, she delivers galleries pretty quickly, because she's showing me some of the galleries that I've shot with her as soon as she's finished with them. So if you're looking for someone who is going to solidly communicate with you through the whole process and then deliver your (quality) photos in a reasonable amount of time, she would be a good choice!
