Ashley Guice Creative

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Grand Rapids, MI for additional fees
  • Offer

Ashley Guice Creative is a Phoenix-based luxury wedding photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of human connection. Since 2017, Ashley Guice has been creating stunning images that blend artistic flair with genuine emotion. With over seven years of experience in photography and a decade-long background in the arts, she brings a unique perspective to every event she covers.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Ashley! From start to finish, she was an absolute joy to work with. Her attention to detail and creativity truly brought our vision to life, capturing every moment beautifully. We had an unfortunate cancellation of our original venue, and with our new venue having a completely different look, Ashley was a great thought partner in scouting locations and helping us achieve the look and feel in our photos that we were going for. Despite the challenges of a venue change and the usual wedding planning craziness, Ashley remained positive, resourceful, and was also just down right fun to work with! Ashley is a true artist, dedicated to the artful execution of every detail. Nothing felt cookie-cutter or ordinary—she took the time to understand our vision and how we wanted to remember the day and then actualized it through her artistic lens. I wanted something artful, chic, and elevated but also real, candid, and documentary-style—and Ashley delivered exactly that. She was also fantastic at understanding how we wanted to be photographed throughout the day. More than anything, she made sure our enjoyment of the day was a priority over just "getting the perfect shot," which was crucial for us. We were able to enjoy every moment, and the photos capture that perfectly. Her team was amazing, too! We got to work with two of her assistant photographers, and they were just as supportive and friendly as Ashley. We would recommend AGC to any couple looking for a photography team who is dedicated to capturing the essence of your wedding in a way that feels unique, personal, and meaningful. - L & L

I booked Alisa Sue Photography before I even secured my venue if that tells you anything about how confident I was that I loved her photography style and vision. I was so happy to get to meet her and her husband, Wayne, on our wedding day. She was the best hypewoman and made me feel beautiful and confident in all our pictures! It also felt so natural posing for pictures with her guidance. She and Wayne were such a dream team. I also hired Snap Pic Photo Booth (owned by them as well) and we loved our backdrop and the props and the print template design! ALSO, she literally turned around some edits so fast. Literally lunchtime the day after our wedding, she had already posted a handful of edited photos from our wedding to her Instagram. How amazing is she!!!

AJS Photo

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Grand Rapids, MI for additional fees

My name is Abby, a Midwest based wedding + boudoir photographer who's really obsessed with her job. I've gotten to see how directly photos can impact people. As we grow up, we realize how priceless photos are and how quality pictures become prized possessions. It's a moment in time you can forever look back on. It's easy to take pictures, but it's hard to capture moments. I'll love making magic with you, because everyone has some magic in them that deserves to be celebrated.

Absolutely thrilled with our experience with AJS Photography! While my spouse wasn't initially keen on the idea of having engagement photos taken, Abby made us both feel at ease and captured genuine, candid moments (even in freezing temperatures). During our meeting before the big day, we mentioned to Abby that we wanted our photos to feel genuine, romantic, and fun! Abby captured every detail, emotion, and memory on our wedding day! On our big day, Abby was our hype woman and major helper. We loved taking home poloroids thanks to Abby from our engagement session and our wedding day. Abby walked into a low-lit venue she had never seen in person and still delivered unique and stunning wedding photos that exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend for couples with varying preferences - Abby delivers magic for everyone!

  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Grand Rapids, MI for additional fees

Calling all misfits, those deeply in love, the nerds, the don't give a flying f***, just authentically you! Behind the camera: I am cracking bad jokes & cramming myself into strange spaces to get the shot. Behind the editing screen: I am smiling, getting high off the emotion of the moment captured. No shame, it’s why I do what I do. I love love. But I guess that's why you are here right? My style: Authentic, timeless, classic & filmy nostalgia. I capture those in-between moments, the messy, the loud, the intimate & the joyful ugly cry. Then you can feel like vogue for every other moment to show the world the rockstars that you are.

Samantha did such an amazing job with our wedding photography. My wife hunted around for the perfect photographer for a few months, as the pictures were very important to her and she wanted to make sure she found the right person with the right style. From the first time we met Samantha in Detroit to do our engagement photos, we felt comfortable with her. She was professional, friendly, and helped us feel at ease during the process. Most importantly, she made it fun! She was an excellent communicator, flexible, and during our wedding, she did a truly amazing job of capturing all the most important moments. She did an excellent job helping us balance our time between everything and sneaking away for a short photo shoot, and made sure to capture us with all of our family, etc. The candid moments she captured were amazing. We shared the album Samantha sent us with our guests through our thank you cards, and we had a ton of people tell us the photos were amazing and asked who did our photos! We sent many people photos as gifts for Christmas this year. On top of all that, Samantha sent us this really sweet and very cool gift of a golden glass photo frame filled with pictures and an ornate wooden box filled with decorative moss with a slide-out plexiglass front with our names on it, and a matching usb drive with all of our photos. Our wedding was very woodsy, and the gift was very thoughtfully matching of the whole thing. Samantha, thank you for your time and energy in helping us make our wedding day so special, and for capturing it for us to remember for a lifetime. My wife and I absolutely recommend her to anyone with our highest regards. Take care!

Hey there! I’m a weddings and couples photographer based in Chicago, IL with my partner Emily and my rescue dog Daxter. I’m here to document joy and celebrate all the meaningful moments with the kickass people that find me.

Hi! It's nice to meet you. I would shake your hand, but I'm more of a fist-bump type of gal. 😃 I have worked full-time as a math and special education teacher for over 20 years, and nearing my 40's, decided to pursue photography since it has been a life-long interest of mine. In 2019, I completed a digital photography degree and while it originally started as a hobby, my work gained a following so I decided to make things official in 2020. Over the past couple of years, my focus has been on photographing families in addition to couples in love. Getting a couple who's madly in love in front of your camera is pure magic!

My all-time favorite thing is to sit by the fire with a glass of good cabernet or watch the ocean waves hit the beach. I love to garden and to build things (but I let my husband to finish all my projects LOL). I enjoy good food and will likely refer to a stand up comedy routine at least once in a conversation. I am also a football mom, lacrosse mom and basketball mom. Wife to a very understanding husband and emotional support person for my big puppies.

Our wedding day was nothing short of magical, and much of that was thanks to our incredible photographer, Silvia. From our first meeting, her calm demeanor and positive outlook put us at ease. Silvia has a unique ability to blend into the background, capturing candid moments that truly reflect the joy and love of the day. Her calm presence was a soothing force during the hustle and bustle, making us feel relaxed and natural in front of the camera.

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.

I asked her pretty last minute to do my wedding, and she was absolutely willing! Saved the day for me. Her professionalism is outstanding, she made sure to ask us first what we were comfortable with and never had us do anything out of those limits.

With an editorial background from the likes of Vogue, I also incorporate romantic poses that truly make each couple shine. This guarantees beautiful imagery to look back on for years to come.

My Husband and I had an AMAZING time shooting with Heather! She was very personable and great at giving direction! When we got the photos back I screamed because they looked like they were straight out of a magazine! If you want a warm moody editorial feel for your wedding you’ve just found the BEST option!

Hi! My name is Jacqueline and I've been in the photography industry for almost a decade. I believe that when I pick up my camera, I am there to tell a story. On your wedding day, I am there to document a new chapter of your love story. I capture all the intimate moments of your day, and then some!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot even begin to describe how amazing it was to work with Jacqueline for our wedding this past weekend. She was extremely easy-going, communicative, professional, and always quick to respond for the entire year leading up to our wedding. So it came as no surprise that on our wedding day she absolutely crushed it. She captured our day so seamlessly. She was never in the way, never made us uncomfortable and just blended into the background in all the right ways. She made the wedding party and family photos process quick and painless which I know from experience can sometimes prove to be a disaster or just unorganized and chaotic at weddings. I was even MORE blown away when she delivered some photos the morning after our wedding after probably being up super late after getting home from our wedding. Talk about going above and beyond and exceeding expectations!!! I could not have asked for a better photographer to play such a huge part in our big day and I would recommend Jacqueline to ANYONE. Thank you so much Jacqueline!!!!! - Ben and Lindsay

We have been lucky enough to work with Jeremy 3 times and hope to continue having him capture special moments in the future. Jeremy shot our engagement pictures, wedding, and family photos with our baby and we are always so happy with the experience and photos. He goes beyond taking staged shots and finds the moments not everyone sees so looking back at the photos let us experience moments we missed during the hectic parts of our wedding day. He is also genuinely kind and goes out of his way to make everyone comfortable. His photos are artistic yet still manage to capture personalities and relationships beautifully. We highly recommend him and his work!

Salt & Ivy was an absolute dream to work with. Highly communicative, professional, punctual, and absolute artists. From booking to receiving the photos, they were so amazing to work with. I (the bride) am typically very uncomfortable taking photographs. This was the first time in my life that I was actually at ease and having fun. 10/10 would and will book them again in the future for family/maternity photographs.

Let's have some real talk for a minute... YOUR WEDDING SHOULD BE A PURE REFLECTION OF YOUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER. Whatever that means for the two of you. It does not have to be an event of pressure and outside expectations. This is the beginning of your greatest adventure and it should make you tingle with excitement and joy. We are whole-hearted believers in this, so we are here to help you every step of the way. If you’re down for a little bit of adventure and a whole lot of magic, let’s grab a drink, get to know each other, and start telling your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a photographer, my (now) husband and I knew we didn’t want anything traditional. We didn’t want stiff looking pictures with someone just sitting there and posing us for hours on end or someone who we couldn’t be ourselves around. We knew before we even got engaged we wanted to travel for our wedding and make an adventure out of it. After hours of research, we finally found Kindred Co Weddings. It only took one video call to know she was the one. Olivia immediately made us feel comfortable and welcome. She was so helpful with all of her tips and suggestions. Planning a wedding is known for being stressful but Olivia made it the easiest process. Once the wedding day arrived, I had no stress - both her and her husband, Bryan, directed the entire day based on our wants and made it easily the most dreamy day! It was like going on an adventure with old friends - half the time I forgot there was a camera there, everything came so natural. I couldn’t ask for better people to share one of the most intimate and special moments of my life with. I feel extremely confident recommending Kindred Co to anyone and everyone I know. The sneak peeks we were able to see exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t be happier. My only regret is not adding on the videography to my package!

Hi! My name is Abby Law, owner of Abby Law Photography! I was born & raised in Grand Rapids MI, but for the the last five years, I have been living in Tennessee. I am based out of the Nashville area! I have been working in the wedding industry since Oct 2022, and I have loved every second of it! I married the love of my life in Dec 2023 which only made my heart swell more & more for not only photography and this business of mine, but for the deeper meaning of marriage itself, and what it truly means to marry your Beloved! Although I am primarily based in Nashville, I LOVE to travel, and will travel to wherever you are!

My boyfriend and I had couple pictures done with Abby. She saw the vision and made it everything we could’ve ever imagined! We had so much fun and it was easy! I would definitely recommend Abby to anyone! She has such a sweet spirit and is so kind!

Hi! I'm Kayla - a traveling Milwaukee wedding photographer - and I'm going to make you cry. Wait, what? Don't worry, not in a bad way. Most of my couples say they cry when receiving their wedding photos from me for the first time. Five, ten, fifty years down the road when you open your wedding album, bet I'll get you again. You'll still be surrounded by your loved ones - remembering the happy tears and laughing until your belly hurts - just as you did on your wedding day.

We are so beyond thankful that we went with Kayla to photograph our wedding. Throughout our engagement shoot and the wedding day- watching her work is truly incredible. She is a master and finding little moments that bring absolute magic to her photos. Never did we feel like we were doing cheesy poses on our wedding day, and the photos reflect that. We have been looking through our sneak peek pictures obsessively because they instantly bring us back to our wedding day. Throughout which, Kayla was the calm amid the chaos. She was so focused on helping us stay on time and navigating us from one task to the next. It was such a comfort knowing that she had our backs and was ensuring that we got all of the big (and small) moments we had discussed leading up to the day. We can’t wait to see the rest of our photos. We know that choosing her as our photographer was one of absolute best decisions for our entire process - from engagement to wedding day. If her pictures haven’t already convinced you- let this be your sign! You want this one.

Barefoot Royalty Photography

Hi, I'm Christine! I specialize in capturing & preserving love stories for the romantic and madly in love couple; whether you’re engaged, getting married, celebrating your anniversary, or just because - I’m here for it! I want to ensure you have an unforgettable experience that allows you to truly focus on your relationship and the love you feel for each other. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending time with my hubby and fur-babies. I absolutely love to travel and explore new places, so if you want to take me to another state, or abroad, I’m totally game!

We booked Christine with Barefoot Royalty for our wedding after meeting her at a bridal expo in Statesboro, GA. The Queen of Hearts package was the one that best suited our needs, which included an engagement session as well. My husband and I decided that we would like to have our session at the river on his dad’s property and Christine was on board and filled with excitement from the start! Little did she know our session would involve a dog, canoe, boat, champagne, and a very awkward couple. With all of these props, obstacles, and survival taking pictures from a moving riverboat in the Ogeechee, Christine got us through our engagement session. We were instantly blown away after our pictures arrived within the timeframe given! Our wedding day quickly arrived and was exciting, fun, and busy right from the start. Christine had a photography schedule for us to follow and worked as hard as possible to keep all of us on track (which was a VERY challenging task in itself). After the ceremony, Christine recommended “golden hour” pictures while our guests enjoyed a cocktail hour. As much as I was excited to start visiting and celebrating with our guests, I am so happy she encouraged us to take the time because the pictures are PERFECT! The week of the wedding, we decided to book an extra hour with Christine to be able to capture more of our reception. Honestly, aside from booking Barefoot Royalty in the first place, this may have been our best decision yet! She and her second shooter stayed until 9 PM and captured so many fun reception pictures that we would not have had otherwise! Christine stayed in touch as the weeks passed while we waited for our full gallery to arrive… and boy were they worth the wait!!! Being able to relive our wedding day through the pictures has been so much fun. We are blown away by the talent she has, attention to detail, and how everything turned out. We would highly recommend Barefoot Royalty Photography for your engagement/wedding photos and would book with Christine every time if we had to do it over again!! Hands down the BEST experience and we were most definitely given the ROYALTY treatment! Thanks for everything! - Shelby and Ryan
