Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m so glad you’re here! Capturing the love, laughter, and magic of weddings is more than my job—it’s my passion.

On the day of our wedding, they were true hard workers, dedicated to capturing every special moment with an artistic eye. The way they styled the small details of our day, in ways we didn't even think of, really made the photos stand out. We are thrilled with the quality of their work and feel it was completely worth the investment. We would highly recommend Matthew Blome Photography to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and passionate wedding photographer.

Hey it's me Alexis! I am a Traverse City based wedding photographer! I have had the honor of photographing beautiful weddings all around Michigan the past 4 years. Having traveled to Arizona, Tennessee, Nebraska, Florida, South Carolina, California, and more, I am open and ready to travel abroad for your wedding as well!

Alexis Brianne Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Their communication style was easily understandable, thorough, and very organized, which helped put our minds at ease throughout the wedding planning process. Alexis' photos and editing skills are truly amazing - there were so many beautiful pictures to choose from, it was almost overwhelming. Her attention to detail and ability to freeze special moments in time is just incredible. Before the wedding, Alexis was in constant contact with us, and on the day of, her calm presence helped reassure my wife when her anxiety started to get the best of her. When I needed to make a last-minute change, Alexis was incredibly reassuring and helped me work through it. We really appreciated the time she spent with us going over specific shots we wanted, as well as her suggestions for other unique angles and perspectives. Compared to some of our friends who paid almost 15,000 for their wedding photography, Alexis' work and value is unmatched. In fact, I even suggested she consider raising her prices (after our wedding, of course!). Overall, Alexis Brianne Photography exceeded our expectations in every way and we couldn't be happier with the results.

Erin Evangeline Photography

  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Gaylord, MI

I'm Erin. I'm a photographer, traveler, and wide-eyed wonderer. I split my time between the Midwest and my bungalow near the beach in Oceanside, CA. My favorite pastimes include exploring Disneyland, watching Schitts Creek & Ted Lasso, and cuddling my dog. I have a loud laugh. I love cabernet franc, chocolate chip cookies, and I'm on a constant search for the best tacos in the world.

Erin is an incredibly warm person and immediately made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot. We had never done a shoot like this and were nervous and worried about feeling awkward, but her easygoing demeanor and natural instructions took all the stress off of us and we really enjoyed the experience. Erin has a detailed eye and a talent for capturing the natural beauty of the outdoors which was important to us. After our first great experience, we asked her to shoot our wedding as well on a cliff overlooking Sedona, AZ. She captured the scenery and golden hour lighting in breathtaking shots that were flattering of us and perfectly captured the grandeur of the red rocks around us. We will treasure the photos forever. Thank you Erin!

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!

Although I can offer plenty of guidance in posing and setup, I have never lost sight of the importance of the candid and spontaneous moments. I strive to create balance between the two with every wedding I shoot.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wedding photos were one of the most important things to me on my wedding day, as it is most brides, because they capture the memories made that’ll last a lifetime. Working with Ryan eliminated absolutely any stress I had of getting the perfect photos. Starting with the planning process he helped guide our “day of wedding” schedule and added input to ensure we got every photo we wanted. During our wedding day he made everyone feel VERY MUCH at ease. Our bridal party was laughing, joking, smiling, having an amazing time and nobody felt they were put into awkward poses and that was evident when we received our photos back. The natural feel of every photo is priceless! Ryan went above and beyond and I could not be happier with choosing him to photograph our wedding! 20/10 recommend.

Hi Friends I’m Kaley! I have been lead/owner of KTP for the past 7 years & continue to grow.

I’m a photographer + graphic designer based in Michigan.

I love talking about the Enneagram and will do so for hours if you let me. I binge New girl repeatedly, I love to rock climb, and I look for any excuse to spend time with people. I value hard work and I'm always looking to perfect my craft. Striving to grow and make myself the best version of myself that I can be.

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
My favourite part of the Astrid Cordier Bridal Experience was how comfortable she made us feel. My husband is not a photo type of guy, and even he felt at ease when Astrid stepped behind the camera. Not only is the end result something out of a fairytale, but the jokes and giggles between shots come as a welcome distraction from the wedding nerves. You don't feel posed, it feels natural and you feel like you can show your own personality and your relationship. No forced smiles or kisses. I could not recommend Astrid enough!

I am a full time photographer, momma of two boys, and wife to my hubby out here documenting love stories just like yours! I have been a photographer for over 25 years, professionally capturing weddings for over 7 years.

We had Nina shoot our wedding on May 20, 2023. She is super professional and organized. She is very good with going with the flow but also following the plan. She’s also extremely good at getting candid photos and tricking anybody into being less awkward with the camera on them. Another huge plus is that while her return time might be longer, you get all of the photos from your day rather than a select amount which was a huge thing for us. We love Nina and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for an amazing photographer.

Lynzee Harrison Photography

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Gaylord, MI

I believe love and light are two of the closest things we have to real magic. We're so fortunate that photography utilizes both. Art, storytelling, and connection have stood the test of time throughout human history. We were designed to create, entertain, and love. I approach each wedding day like it's the most important love story that will ever be told. Because to you, it is. I approach most of the day with a photojournalistic approach. Then during portraits I'm skilled at both posing you beautifully enough to be an editorial piece and prompting you in ways to bring out cinematic romance.

Lynzee is simply the best of the best. She is intensely creative, enthusiastically supportive and downright fun to be around on a wedding day. She can whip a wedding party or unruly family into shape with the kindness and firmness of a true professional and makes sure to get everything you want and then some from your photography experience. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for emotional, colorful and unique engagement and wedding photographs you will cherish for a lifetime.

  • Serves Gaylord, MI

I'm so glad you're here! My name is Lindsay, and I was put on this earth to capture all the special, in-between moments that tell your story. When I’m not trying out a new recipe, kidnapping a puppy to love on, or packing my bags for my next adventure, I’m spending time with couples telling their story in the most authentic way possible. If you’re not afraid of some PDA, or getting a bit dirty just to grab the perfect shot, then we’re probably the perfect match.

Lindsay is AMAZING! Seriously, stop researching and book her right now because she was an absolute dream to work with, is SO talented, and all our photos are stunning. Starting from the very beginning when we had our intro call with her, she was so kind, flexible, organized, and truly invested in documenting our love story. We used Lindsay for both our engagement and wedding photographer, and I can easily say the results of both FAR exceeded our expectations. She captured ALL of the special moments throughout the day in an authentic and beautiful manner, so now when we look back at them we feel like she captured our day perfectly. Here's all the finer details, if you are interested! 1.) Our biggest fear/challenge about hiring a photographer was working with someone who didn't make us feel comfortable or relaxed or someone who didn't know how to prompt us for posing. Lindsay was NONE of those things. She instantly made us feel so at ease from the second we met her and her prompts are so easy to follow and produced the best, most natural and authentic photos. 2.) The most helpful aspect of working with Lindsay pre-wedding was her STELLAR organization and responsiveness. Seriously, this girl is organized to a T and always responded to my (sometimes VERY lengthy) emails in a timely manner. She was always so patient with my endless questions, and even took time out of her personal life to preview our wedding photo location to pick out the best spots! How amazing is that?? 3.) Working with Lindsay the day of the wedding was perfect. She arrived to our getting ready location early to make sure she gave herself plenty of time to capture our details photos and followed the schedule perfectly the remainder of the day. She kept us on schedule when we needed it, captured all of our special moments, was prepared and organized, and followed our very detailed (and complex) family photo requests to make sure allllllll the different family combos were included. All in all, if you are looking for a kind, genuine, authentic, organized, talented, and professional photographer.....Lindsay is your girl. We could not be any happier with our experience working with her and the STUNNING engagement and wedding photos she produces. Lindsay honestly feels like she's become our friend and I'm honestly sad that our time working with her for our wedding has come to an end, but we plan on recommending her to everyone and anyone so hopefully our paths will cross again in the future! We love you Lindsay 3

Homeschoolin, Home birthin, and Holistic mama that loves to capture Life and Love in it's truest moments and forms. My business has been a decade in the making from falling in love with photography in high school, to now... My love for Milkweed and my time spent living in Iowa has inspired my business name. I used to live near a conservation center with fields of milkweed. My children and I spent many days enjoying this haven of beauty and were blessed to see thousands of Monarch butterflies migrate to the Milkweed. I realize how fleeting these moments are and would love to capture your story!

So easy to work with and professional! My labor went very quickly so photos were in the immediate postpartum. I love how each detail was captured so intimately to tell the story, so I can look back on those moments. She respected the environment and helped in any way to make sure I felt cared for-above and beyond being a photographer. We also did some newborn/family photos a few days later and she was very patient with my full of energy toddler, all while capturing the sweet details of our newborn. All of the photos are beautiful!! When I asked for a few edits to the gallery it was done and updated for me quickly.

From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Christina is absolutely wonderful! She is one of the most creative photographers you’ll ever meet. I just knew she would capture all the special moments to remember, and she did just that. The detail she puts into editing is pure magic - you can tell she spends a lot of her time pouring her passion into her work. My surprise proposal photos that Christina captured of my fiancé and I were just so lovely – I had to ask her if she could be there for my wedding in Maine and she joyfully accepted. I would recommend Christina to anyone who loves the moody and romantic side of photography – you won’t regret it! I will cherish these photographs forever!

Im passionate about documenting your big day in a way you can be brought back to the moment and feel the excitement and passion every time you look at your wedding album. Photographing your wedding is as important to me as it is to you, and it not a job I take lightly! Every couple has a different list of important items to be captured, and my goal is to serve you and your partner in the best way possible, capturing the shots most important to you, plus the little in-between moments you didn’t even know that happened.

My wife and i are very happy and thankful we found Sammy. We had a last minute emergency wedding due to my wife’s father being diagnosed with a terminal illness and not much time to live. Wanted to get professional pictures taken so to have quality pictures to look back on a few beautiful moment during a tragic time with my wife’s father. Contacted Sammy with only a few days notice. Sammy responded very quickly and thankfully was available. My wife and i were only mainly focused on getting shots of the ceremony itself and yet Sammy pulled off sooooo much more. The day of our wedding it was raining till ~1pm and the wedding was in my parent’s in law’s back yard scheduled at 4pm. Needless to say we were all literally working setting up decorations and rapidly getting ready till minutes before the ceremony. Somehow Sammy took a magnitude of stellar pictures of us all while we were setting up and getting ready, so much so that the number of pictures make our wedding look like a lengthy wedding day portfolio! Every single one of the pictures taken from our wedding are beautifully and consistently edited, and most importantly captured the crucial moment we were hoping for. My wife and I are still blown away by Sammy’s work and without a doubt highly recommend Sammy to anyone needing a professional photographer.

Hiiii, I’m Taylor! Wife to my best friend, Golden Retriever mom to our Beckham, and outdoor enthusiast. My business was created purely out of passion. I’ve always had a love for photography, art and design. I first picked up a camera in 2009 during a high school film class and haven’t stopped shooting since. My photography is inspired by nature’s beauty and life’s beautiful details. I have an infatuation with natural light, details & beautiful scenery. I strive to create light-filled, romantic & timeless imagery, from capturing all the small details to the raw emotional moments. This is my dream job and I’m thankful for it every day.

I honestly cannot thank Taylor enough. As a "COVID bride" many things about our wedding did not go as planned and there were plenty of emotions that came with that. However, when I received my GORGEOUS photos from Taylor, it meant the world to me to have something beautiful, over the top, and PERFECT during a time when so many things have taken unexpected turns. She was so professional on the day of, fast, knew all the "good angles", and made us feel so comfortable! I cannot say enough about her. Not to mention so flexible with the fast-paced change of plans leading up to the wedding day. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I’m an endless optimist and can (or at least try to) make a joke out of anything. I’m rooted in tradition, but hate following the crowd. I absolutely believe in love at first sight. I love couples who love each other madly, and love to have fun together. I love capturing your true authentic self on camera. From belly laughs to romantic kisses that belong in a chick-flick, I’ll do what it takes to make sure you have the most fun throughout your wedding. I love creating images that are bold, bright, happy, and fun! After all, weddings are happy occasions – why should your photos reflect anything different?!

Jessie loves weddings and it shows with every photo she takes. She made us feel so at ease on our wedding day and was wonderful with organizing our families and capturing beautiful, authentic photos of them. Jessie is also amazing at capturing candids. She delivered beautiful photos beyond our wildest dreams. If you want an amazingly talented photographer who will help keep your day streamlined, calm, magical, and fun, Jessie is your gal!
