Arrae Photography

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,400
  • Serves Gowen, MI

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.

Amanda and her partner did an AMAZING job capturing our August 2024 wedding. My husband and I were blown away when we saw our gallery. She is a joy to work with and I highly recommend Arrae Photography to any couple.

I am a luxury destination photographer based in MICHIGAN, COLORADO & FLORIDA! I am ALL over Michigan and all over the nation! I have a home in Lansing, Holland & Traverse City. I travel all over Michigan capturing my clients from Lansing to Grand Rapids to the west coast of Lake Michigan to Mackinac Island & Traverse City to all metro Detroit! I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Dani not only helped us find our elopement spot in Colorado but she was so helpful in structuring our plans. We had our air bnb for a week and she had flowers and photos placed in there to make us feel at home. It was so sweet. She had a changing tent for me to change into after we hiked to our elopement spot. After we were married we ran around the mountains taking photos and we felt so happy and comfortable! The icing on the cake, the photos turned out AMAZING!!!! She is stuck with us forever as our photographer! Hire her!!!

Hi, I'm Mandy! I'm happiest at home with a cup of coffee (heavy on the cream & sugar), watching some HGTV (Fixer Upper anyone?!) & flipping through Instagram, with my beagle, Jack, snuggled on my feet. I love exploring new places with my sweetheart, Shawn, trying new foods, craft beer, coffee dates, Michigan autumns, and, of course, PHOTOGRAPHY! Thank you so much for stopping by my page. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you all, and I appreciate each and every one of you!

Mandy was our wedding photographer and I can’t speak highly enough about her work! She was communicative, easy to work with and delivered us so many beautiful photos!

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 LOVE, LOVE. IT’S QUITE SIMPLE REALLY. THE BEST MOMENTS ARE UNPREDICTED, CANDID AND RAW. WHEN LAUGHTER IS SO STRONG THAT YOUR BELLY ACHES, OR WORDS ARE SO SWEET THAT TEARS ARE MADE.. CREATING MAGIC WITH HUMANS WHO SEE LOVE AND LIGHT AS POWERFULLY AS I DO… THAT’S WHAT I LIVE FOR.

Honestly I'm gonna cry while typing this, I stumbled into Lexi on a whim. She is hands down the best thing to happen to me. From one photographer to another- she reminds me of HOME! She had done a potential engagement shoot and now a Christmas shoot of my little one and myself. Every single time, she makes me feel so confident, so loved, and so comfortable. She is the best thing I swear! Not only did I create a forever friendship with her, I would recommend her to the stranger on the street because she's THAT good. For someone who prefers to be behind the camera, she made being in front of the camera just as easy and careless. I literally love her. (for context- I've only known her for less than a year, so I'm not just hyping up a normal friend). BOOK HER. I swear.

I started in photography in 2008 and travel all over Michigan for weddings.

When I was looking for a wedding photographer, Sydney stood out against the rest of them. She is so quick to email you back, is friendly and knowledgeable about all aspects of weddings. When it came to our engagement session she gave us ideas for locations and just made the whole experience so fun and easy. My husband hates his photos being taken and he enjoyed our engagement session and loved talking to Sydney's husband who was with her. When it came to our wedding day, Sydney has this awesome questionnaire that answers everything! There were questions on there I never even thought about!! She showed up early and found places for portraits and checked in on me. She's just the sweetest and made our day so special, even through the stressful parts. She was a blast at our reception dancing with everyone on the dance floor while taking photos, like I said she made the day even better. We were sitting in our hotel room the night of our wedding and I got a Facebook notification from Sydney Marie Photography, Sydney had posted 10 photos from our wedding, I couldn't believe it and it made me so happy. I can't thank Sydney enough for everything, if you're looking for a photographer do not hesitate and hire her.

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.

Your wedding will be one of your most cherished days, and I’d be honored to be a part of it. Let’s create something beautiful together!

From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, detailed, and fastidious - putting our minds at ease throughout the entire planning process. 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.

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!

We loved working with Amy! She was easy to work with leading up to the day, and had multiple meetings talking about the timeline and she would give advice if she thought we missed anything. Day of, she kept everything on schedule! We had a large bridal party and her and the second photographer were great and kept everyone in check. Unfortunately, it rained on our day but Amy was quick to pivot and our shots still turned out amazing. She also sent the previews so quickly and way more than I thought. We are so happy with how the previews turned out and can't wait to see the full album!

I was that bride that no one wants to be. I was young and had no clue when it came to planning a wedding. I chose a wedding photographer that someone suggested and not necessarily that I loved. Then it happened. My wedding photos came back and were awful. Fifteen years later, they are still awful. From that day on I thought, never again. My role as a photographer continues to push me as a creative, learning how to chase light effectively and giving you images that you'll adore. YOU are my inspiration! Simple things in life are what make me smile. Relationships, sunshine and a cozy movie on the couch. Life is beautiful, isn't it?!

We have worked with Kellie on family photos not once but now twice to capture our families most precious moments and she was amazing through the whole process. From assisting us on what to wear, to capturing the imperfectly perfect moments, and making the booking and planning process so simple, we had to book her again for more! Now, our home is filled with amazing captured moments by her and will be for the future to come as our family continues to grow! You will gain a photographer and friend for life with Kellie, and she will make you feel on top of the world during your session!

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!

Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get.

Hey there! I'm Bailey, the face behind Marble + Wild Photography. ​ My guilty pleasures are true crime podcasts, sleeping with the windows open in the winter, and watching jeopardy every single night. I've officially reached the level of adulting where you live for iced coffee. ​My family and I have lived in AL, PA, and are now back near our hometown of Monroe MI. I love my clients. I love watching lives being joined, families grow, I love all of it, and I am so thankful to be welcomed into so many lives. I am exceptionally lucky that my passion and my career are one in the same. I can't wait to meet you!

Bailey was the photographer for my wedding June of 2022. This was her first wedding (I think) returning from her maternity leave. She completely blew us away with her professionalism, personality, and the results! She was with us all day-easily 10 plus hours. As a new mom myself, I can’t even fathom how she spent all that time away from her baby and handled it so flawlessly. We felt she was a part of our family that day, not just someone we hired for photos. She went above and beyond to give us the best photos we could have even imagined. She listens so intently- my grandfather had Alzheimer’s and she knew how important family photos with him that day were (it can be challenging to work with someone with Alzheimer’s). She captured such genuine smiles and memories for us. He passed 6 months after my wedding and the photos she took were some of the last we have with him and will forever be cherished. We have an extended family shoot coming up Spring of 2024 and we couldn’t be more excited to work with her again! I could go on and on about Bailey. Highly recommend her, book before someone beats you to it!
