Cheleanamarie Photography

Clio, MI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Empire, MI

Hi friends! I'm Chel, a 29 year old mama + wife to the sweetest boys. Loved ones would describe me as warm, bubbly, quirky, and down to earth. I started my photography journey at the end of 2014, and am entirely self-taught. I was born and raised in Traverse City, but moved down to Clio, Michigan 2 years ago! However, I continue to serve all of Michigan, as well as locations around the US and worldwide. I am a coffee obsessive (think Lorelai from Gilmore Girls) with a joy for nature + traveling. I love reading, all genres of music (sucker for Luke Combs, Elvis, Benson Boone), true crime, cringe reality TV + psychological thrillers!

Cheleana is the best! She is soo beyond fun to work with and so easy going. The pictures are of course stunning with her behind the camera. I’m so excited to have her do shoots for us in the future

Harrison, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Empire, MI

Hello, hello! My name is Taylor Zinn! I am based out of Harrison, MI. A small town right in the middle of the mitten. ​ Besides photography my favorite roles are being married to my best friend of 11 years and raising our two kiddos, 2 y/o & 9 y/o. I live for warm ocean views and pretending I have free time to read books. I'll have a full collection ready for the day I finally retire! Coffee is the real m.v.p and The Office reruns will always be on in the background (after Bluey has ended of course!).

Taylor is hands down the best photographer I have ever worked with! If you want to feel comfortable, someone to listen to your wants and needs, someone who travels wherever, makes things fun you absolutely need to book her! She has done not only all our family photos but all our engagement photos and even tried to fly her out to our destination wedding but I booked to late and missed out. (One thing from my wedding I truly regret) Not only does she work well with you but her work speaks for itself. Do not miss out on booking her you will absolutely regret it!

Traverse City, MI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,000

I am a Traverse City native, completely passionate about meeting new people and celebrating life's biggest adventures with them. Some of my favorite things in the world are Northern Michigan summers, a good story, and beautiful light. I am crazy about Jesus, my family, and adventures, and I consider it a great privilege to be a living my dream of being a wedding and portrait photographer in my absolute favorite place on earth.

I can't say enough thank you to Anna for the AMAZING wedding pictures we have received. As I was scrolling down the pictures, I had tears in my eyes because they just reminded me how beautiful our wedding day was. Anna did such a wonderful job capturing all the precious moments and telling a story through her camera. I have received so many compliments for the photos! During the day of the wedding, my husband and I both felt very very comfortable working with Anna. We thought that we would be nervous in front of the cameras, but it turned out that most of the time we hardly even noticed them! And when we were posing, Anna made it so easy that we were just laughing the whole time. We had so much fun thanks to Anna! Being a bride is overwhelming and I definitely missed a lot of fun, warm moments. Thank you, Anna, for documenting our memory perfectly!

Lisa McCoy Photography LLC

Alanson, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,500

My name is Lisa McCoy (as you can guess)! My husband Aj and I live in Alanson of Northern Michigan. We enjoy camping and road trips. We make sure to find all the hidden gems Michigan has to offer on the way. During Michigan summers we love being on, or in, the water. Kayaking is a personal favorite of ours. Although, I think my happiest place is walking alongside the ocean — I can’t describe how it makes my heart feel to be there! Aj and I enjoy trying new craft beers from all around the state. I always have a bottle of champagne in the fridge while Aj is always trying different kinds of scotch. Hence the names of our wedding packages.

Lisa McCoy is very easy to work with. She has a very artistic eye. We let her direct our 25th anniversary pictures and we loved the ones she took. She knows how to get the best angle to make you look your best.

Harbor Springs, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500

Every individual has a unique tale, and mine is quite the whirlwind! When I was 5, my family left our Michigan home and has been on the move ever since. After living across the globe, I now proudly call Salt Lake City, UT my home sweet home with my wonderful husband, our sweet daughter, and our White German Shepherd! My journey toward becoming a wedding photographer is fueled by my romantic spirit, hope for deep connections, and wandering the world in pursuit of love. The idea of spreading love near and far, and passing on that love through generations puts a smile on my face every day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I recently worked with Lauren when she attended a styled shoot of mine and she did an absolutely amazing job! Her gallery was stunning and she was so fun to work with. As a planner, one thing I look for with photographers is how comfortable they make the couple feel and Lauren nailed that. She kept the good vibes going through the entire day and the couples raved about her. She is truly talented and a natural!

Captured by Grace Photography

Traverse City, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,300

I'm a Michigan Native and moved north 6 years ago - best decision I've ever made. I prefer whiskey and lakeside campfires, but I also love a night out on the town. I'm a mom, major cat lady, and I'm currently loving Seinfield reruns. I'm a teacher by degree, and have worked in the event industry for years. I'm a big true crime junkie - podcasts, books, shows - all of it, but I cannot for the life of me watch a scary movie. I believe the best moments happen in the in-between, and these in-betweens tell our story. I love stopping time in these moments, just for a minute, so you can tell your story for years to come.

Grace was wonderful through the entire wedding process from engagement photos to the big day. She has a way of putting people at ease and makes getting those candid photos a breeze. I cant say enough good things about her.

Rayan Anastor Photography 

5.0

Traverse City, MI
  • Photojournalistic style

You can usually find me out on our boat with my husband and three children exploring the Great Lakes. When I am not exploring Michigan, I am definitely traveling to explore other areas around the world. I love photographing the fleeting moments with my children as they experience life is something: A smile, a tear, the belly laugh, concentration and everything in between. This fascination is what carries over to my photography. The connection between two people who intend to spend the rest of their lives together is magical. It is expressive and full of fleeting moments that one may forget unless it is captured in a photograph.

Rayan will be the easiest vendor you choose! Her work is beyond phenomenal and she will go above and beyond (literally) to get the shots you want! Her professionalism and calm nature is since a comforting presence throughout the entire wedding process-from pre wedding, the day of and afterwards. I will recommend Rayan time and again, over and over. The quality and detail of her work and the product she delivers is worth your investment and so much more.

Based in Traverse city Michigan but available anywhere!! Looking for couples who think outside the box for their wedding and just want to have fun and enjoy their friends and family. OF COURSE also get some epic photos along the way.

Chelsea is really the best! My planner recommended Chelsea and I am SO grateful that she did. Chelsea agreed to be our wedding photographer on short notice and was so accommodating. She took the time to speak with me over the phone in order to get an idea of us as a couple, the wedding and our vision. She also reached out before the wedding to see if I had any questions and reminded me of the family photo list. The day of the wedding she arrived early to scope everything out so when it came time to take pictures she knew exactly where they would be taken. She was fun and calming and really made taking photos feel natural. We had unexpected things happen that day and Chelsea went with it and took all the photos we asked her to take. Chelsea truly captured such an intimate and special day for us. She sent us the "sneak peak" photos two days after the wedding and we are obsessed! So many great emotions captured! I cannot say enough nice things about Chelsea and can only promise you that you will love her!

My name is Charity Sizemore, I am soon to be Charity Miltenberger. I am a mom of one beautiful little girl. Photography has been my true passion since 2012, but I really started to expand my knowledge in 2016. My dream is to capture as many love stories as possible. I am an avid reader, with the majority of those books being romance novels, and I love getting out with my family. I have lived in Northern Michigan my entire life, and I wouldn't live anywhere else.

I cannot recommend Rustling Leaf enough! Simple spectacular!!! She went above and beyond and took care of everything, captured everything I wanted and moved seamlessly in the background. We had tons of last minute oopsies with hair and setup and even though I was busy with that, she made sure EVERYTHING was taken care of! I could not be more thrilled with our photos and our day, not to mention she got our photos back so quickly! Highly recommend!

My photography is bright, colorful and true-to-life. I love to find the balance between the posed, elegant portraits and the candid, joyful photos of you and your partner, surrounded by your favorite people coming together to celebrate your love. I want your photos to capture authentic emotion and meaningful moments, and for the images to be timeless heirlooms that you’ll look back at fondly for years to come. I focus on the meaningful connection of the moment rather than perfect posing. Your wedding is a day full of emotion, and I want your photos to highlight those feelings.

We love working with Kristin! She is always very professional, kind and an amazing photographer!

Charlevoix, MI
  • Editorial style

People often bring me around to document the good times. Whether it be a wedding, a family gathering, a milestone, or any of the other exciting landmarks we experience in life. I couldn’t be more grateful for this. My goal in my work is to capture your story in a true and honest way. This means becoming part of your event and documenting the story from the inside out. I believe the best images come from real, authentic, unaltered moments. These moments aren’t staged or set up… they are captured.

I work with Michael often. I have worked with him as a wedding vendor and I have hired him to shoot my family photos numerous times. He's always a joy to be around and his work is beautiful. He knows how to get a smile out of you and make you feel comfortable when working with him.

Hi! My name is Seana Hope. Yes, Seana Hope are both my first names so you can call me whatever is easier for you. Everybody is asking, why photography? I grew up spending my lunch breaks in the library, scanning books and learning about new things by looking at the pictures in between the pages. I guess I was just always introverted (don't worry, I can be goofy too) so I really loved my alone time. As I got older, I have become so adventurous, scratching places out of my bucket list one by one. With every journey I take, I enjoy sharing them through my photos.

All I can say is Connie is hands down so much more than a photographer. She was so patient, kind, and positive when we had our elopement. We got down pour rain and she was quick to have plans to take us to get beautiful pictures. She was so thoughtful with doing things she didn’t have to do, like helping hold my wet dress, and so much more. Connie is extremely calming presence in a stressful and hectic day. We absolutely loved our pictures and all the special moments she captured without us realizing and was truly so special working with her!

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!

I have been a photographer for 8 years. Throughout my time as a photographer I’ve captured clothing, models, and memories. I shifted from corporate shootings to families and weddings because it gave me this warm fuzzy feeling when I edited my couples and families photos.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

I was introduced to the world of photography the same week I was introduced to the world. All thanks to my Dad, who was never without his camera. Because of him, our memories growing up are preserved. Then I got my first camera when I was about 6. I documented everything. Since then, my memories, large and small, are organized on my computer, by year. So I can go back & revisit so many wonderful memories from my life...most which I wouldn't even remember without pictures. I enjoy life, and that’s why people call me the “happiest photographer.”

My husband and I got married at the start of the pandemic. Who would’ve thought that not long after I met the man of my dreams the world would be turned on its head! But there we were, starting a new life together during an uncertain time. Our wedding plans went through many changes as you would imagine. But Nicole was understanding, and did her best to work with our requests. She seemed to be just as excited about our plans as we were. My husband and I both agreed that she was easy to reach, and she was always very pleasant whenever we did so. She actually showed up to my wedding before I did! I would positively recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer for a special event. I’m very pleased with how the pictures came out. I would like to hire her again to do some family photos.

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.

Choosing Tylee for our photographer was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. It was the best investment, and something I’ll always thank myself for choosing to do. From the beginning to the end, she filled our wedding planning journey with support, encouragement, and intention. It truly was like having another wedding coordinator/bridesmaid. She learns her couples, individually and together, and tailors her talent to their specific “vibe”. Tylee met with us multiple times and ways throughout our engagement. We had video calls, phone calls, Pinterest boards, google forms and more. As an indecisive bride, I was so nervous about choosing locations, outfits, and photo prompts. Tylee quite literally held my hand through it all—style guides, location ideas, photography “styles”, even VENUE ideas. I was 3000% confident in her ability to capture our love beautifully and in the exact way I wanted, without me even knowing what I wanted. THATS how much effort and intention she puts in to know her couples on a personal level. She made our wedding day go so smoothly, between the separate wedding photography timeline we created, and her fun interactions with the family and wedding party. I didn’t have to think about what photos I wanted, because we had already planned it, and because tylee had already thought of it and done it before it came across my mind. We are so grateful and amazed by the turnaround time for our photo sessions and particularly our full wedding album. We’ve heard so many of our friends talk about waiting months to see their photos, so the short time we waited is truly astonishing. We still can’t get through our wedding album without crying, and I don’t think we ever will. Tylee caught so much emotion and detail in these photos, I’m tearing up even thinking about it! Tylee felt more like a friend than a photographer by the end of this journey, and part of me wishes our engagement was just a *bit* longer so we could enjoy Tylee a bit longer.

We hired Jessie to photograph our engagement pictures and our wedding based on a recommendation from a friend and we wouldn’t change a thing! To her personality, Jessie is such a sweet and caring person, which made us feel so comfortable. While she is very professional, we felt like friends – not “just” clients. Jessie made us feel natural and relaxed while taking our engagement pictures (our first professional pictures together). She helped us numerous times throughout the wedding planning process and even helped create our wedding schedule, which was a huge stress relief. One of our favorite things about Jessie is how she truly cares about her clients, and will both mentally and emotionally check in with them during the wedding day. Just knowing that you have someone supporting you, rooting for you, and telling you to “take a deep breath” truly makes all the difference on such an important day. We love Jessie’s one-on-one, down to earth nature and it was one of the reasons we chose her. To her work, Jessie is an outstanding photographer. Alex’s family is filled with professional photographers who had nothing but praise for Jessie’s style and quality. We love that she uses natural light and makes the people she’s photographing the stars of her photos. She also loves using real items from her surroundings like leaves, flowers, branches, etc. and incorporanting them into her shots to make them look more realistic. Lastly, her investments (prices) are very fair for the pictures and experiences you receive. You won’t find a better hype-woman and an artist. So, if you are thinking about hiring Wildcrest Studios as your wedding photographer, do it!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the moment we saw Breanne’s beautiful photos, we knew we wanted her to capture our day too. Her style of timeless, elegant, and true-to-the moment photos fit our vision exactly. She was the first vendor we booked after our venue and it was the easiest decision we made throughout the whole process! We booked with her in 2018 for our 2020 wedding and then COVID happened. Through two year-long postponements, Breanne was supportive and understanding. Then, when we were faced with the predicament of finding a new venue 10 months out from our 2022 wedding, she was incredibly helpful and kind – providing not only suggestions for new venues to look at, but also lending an ear as a friend and giving us advice. Picking out a new venue was stressful, but having such a caring person as Breanne in our corner meant so much to us. On the day of our wedding, Breanne and her husband, Jason, made us feel so comfortable throughout the day and helped keep things moving, even when we got behind schedule. They made us laugh and encouraged us to really feel the joy of the day. When our wedding photos were delivered, we were blown away! Breanne and Jason captured moments both big and small and looking through them is like reliving the day. We are so grateful to have such beautiful and timeless photos to cherish forever.

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!

My journey with photography started as a childhood passion, using up all my mom's film on disposable cameras.

There’s nothing I love more than photographing love!

I had the pleasure of working with Jen for a wedding back in November of 2023. She was great! From the get go, she was nice, and easy to work with. Very patient and communicative. She payed attention to every little detail, and those are what matters the most. Weeks later, I saw her pictures from that wedding, they were stunning! Very unique poses and ideas that she captured.

But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. Whether you’re dressed to the nines on the day of your wedding or, the dirty white dress that spent more time on the dance floor than the altar let’s capture the authentic you and have a damn good time doing it.

Mary was such an incredible photographer and person to work with for our wedding!! We are not too comfortable in front of the camera and she did such a fantastic job helping us and coaching us so our pictures were the best they could be.

Madalyn was probably the best photographer we could have asked for, it was like having a friend instead of a vendor throughout the day. She just does a great job of capturing candid and genuine emotion, and after getting all of our photos back we loved how she was able to capture us (and pretty much everyone else) looking great and having fun without being overly posed. In addition, she was so incredibly organized and professional throughout the entire process, she got us our timeline and I was able to use that to build the rest of our day-of-schedule around it. She communicated early and often and always made sure she got the list of required photos we wanted so we didn’t miss anything. Since she also hadn’t photographed at our venue before, she set up her own meeting with the venue before the wedding to get a tour and walk-through so it wasn’t a surprise on the day of the wedding. She was assertive when she needed to be to wrangle our families for photos but otherwise was extremely flexible in getting shots if the plans changed! Especially since our wedding was late in the winter and we decided against a first look, she made sure to have a lighting assistant on hand to help coordinate additional flash and we got some great evening photos, and the second shooter who helped out had some awesome ideas for important shots too. Also, she got us engagement photo sneak peeks within 24 hours and got us our wedding sneak peeks (40+ photos!) within 48 hours of our wedding. She just made the entire planning experience and photo sessions so comfortable and fun.

I'm quirky, colorful, I swear a bit too much, I love a good whiskey, and I love really hard. I'm not a mushy person who will say they "love love" but I love a good love story. I'm here to help keep the family in check during your family pictures and I'll keep you dancing on the dance floor all night long.

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.

When you invest in my wedding photography, you're investing not only in an experienced photographer with a great eye, but in a one of a kind creative direction and compositional instincts that takes years to hone. My work is focussed on creating timeless yet modern images, with a strong editorial slant while viewing everything through a romantic lens. I am focussed on gorgeous lighting, poses that are natural and flattering and the luxury that embodies your magical day.

Awarded Best of Zola
Astrid is by far the only photographer I wanted for my dreamy farm wedding! We were so privileged that she could capture our special big day! She has an impeccable eye for artistic and unique photos and captured all our special moments that I can forever keep! She is worth every penny! Thank you so much for all our amazing memories! I cannot recommend her enough!
