Crystal V Photography

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Classic style
  • Serves Lake Leelanau, MI

Hi! I'm Crystal VanAntwerpen. I am based out of Muskegon, Michigan, and I do portrait sessions and weddings around West Central Michigan. I started photographing portraits and weddings in 2012 and currently photograph a wedding almost every weekend during the summer and fall months.

Crystal is professional and classy in both her photography and personality. The images she creates are magazine-worthy and multiple family members and guests have commented on just how impressed they were. Moreover, she's a calming presence on the wedding day and quietly documents the most important moments in a way that feels natural and authentic. Thanks, Crystal! :)

Clio, MI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $3,800
  • Serves Lake Leelanau, 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 was so amazing to work with! Went above and beyond, listened to concerns we had, and even better, was able to control the family photo chaos on the wedding day. She did our engagement photos which was a great warm up before the actual wedding day. She stayed in constant contact with photo updates and checking in about wedding planning process. The actual wedding day, she battled the windy weather with grace and got the most amazing photos. We look at them almost everyday. Highly recommend her for shooting your wedding, it was well worth it, we are so grateful to have met and worked with her!

Taylor M Zinn Photography

Harrison, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Lake Leelanau, 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!

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 was absolutely amazing to work with. I got engaged in 2019 and married on May 15, 2021. I’m a wedding planner myself, so I had a lot of my timelines done early on, but Planning through a pandemic had a lot of ups and downs while working around all the state guidelines. Lisa was amazing in helping come up with ideas to help make something work in case we ultimately had to go a different route. We lucked out and got to have a wonderful day. Lisa and her second shooter (husband) put the group at ease and was wonderful posing all of us. Her pictures turned out more than we could ever imagine. So many people compliment us on all of them. I highly recommend her to anyone.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,000

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 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!

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!

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abigail is a great photographer that not only does great work and gets stuff done but she's also hilarious and down to earth! We had her shoot our engagement pictures and wedding pictures and they turned out amazing! From making us laugh, to getting the whole family to pay attention down to getting the best shots we will have to cherish! She offers so much for her clients and I'm excited to have her do our family pictures as well. If you want fun and cherishing moments without having to worry about if you're getting the pictures you want, Abigail is your girl!

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. Don’t be afraid to reach out to me and ask about my photography style, my editing style, or my favorite restaurant! I highly recommend scheduling a free consulting session!

Grace was just amazing. For a day that was overwhelming and very stressful, I cannot thank her enough for her calm and kindness. My now husband and I are usually not "photo people", as we tend to be more introverts than anything else, and she went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Her professionalism and guidance during the shoot can be described as more than stellar. I will definitely recommend her to all of my friends who will be getting married soon. During all the chaos, I was extremely thankful to have chosen her as our photographer.

Andrea is our wedding photographer. She has been so helpful finding a gorgeous location for our elopement and figuring out important details for a different state. Our engagement photos were amazing, unique, and so full of emotion. We also had a great time laughing with her through the shoot. We can’t wait for the wedding and seeing those 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 captured my first wedding in August of 2018, it was the day I fell head over heels in love with wedding photography. It's all about capturing the love story for me..the feels from beginning to end. When you book with AGS, you're signing on for an adventure. Your engagement session is a celebration full of us getting to know one another, lots of laughter, and having fun! As your wedding nears closer AGS will help with your timeline, connect with your vendors ( or introduce you to some of the best) and help plan out the perfect photo locations, along with any other needs to create the perfect day.

Gosh, I don't know where to begin with Arleigh. From the beginning, it felt like we knew Arleigh for the longest time. She made us feel so comfortable from the get-go. Her friendly and full of positivity and love personality made us feel so sure about choosing her as our wedding photographer. She captured our personalities and love in the most beautiful way. The photos she took truly showed who we were as a couple. In addition, she was a calming force as I was full of anxiety before walking down the aisle in front of a huge crowd. She made sure we were happy and calm the entire day and was always willing to take care of us in any way she could. I know I will be forever recommending Arleigh to others, as well as using her in the future for family portraits.

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.”

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.

The amount of glorious and wonderful things I could say about Tylee would fill a book, so, to summarize: She is the most wonderful and kind human, and was such a calming presence during our wedding day. You don’t just get a photographer with her; you get a day of planner, a hype woman, someone who will go get you different shoes when your heels start to give you a blister, and a friend. She is amazing. Beyond her existence being amazing, you obviously get great photos too. She captured our day in the most perfect way - the fun, the joy, the happiness - EVERYTHING. My husband isn’t a fan of taking photos, and in fact told me multiple times he was dreading them, but he had such a blast with Tylee that he said he actually had fun during photos. PLUS, she sent a sneak peek the DAY AFTER OUR WEDDING and we got our whole wedding album back in just over a week! I still cry over the photos every day. She simply is the best.

We haven’t even received our full gallery yet and I already want to write this raving review. Gemini also did our engagement shoot, which was a dream, so I can’t say I’m surprised. Not only are the shots and the editing absolutely beautiful (bright, rich colors), but they are also efficient with the formal shots so we could get to the having-fun part! Sandra was so awesome at trailing us comfortably so she could get all the best pictures, and also quick and responsive when we requested a specific take. Nichole’s detail shots were gorgeous and well staged - she even brought along props to enhance our theme and items! They had their associate help out for the first few hours and she was also incredibly talented. We already know we will be printing out all the pictures and flipping through our photo album for years and years to come.

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!

Andy took our engagement photos, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the quality of work, communication, and overall experience. When we have worked with photographers in the past, it seems like they are either too hands off and don’t give enough direction, or they micromanage every detail which gets annoying. Andy struck the perfect balance of helping us get into flattering poses and settings, while allowing us to be ourselves and have fun. The finished product was unique, organic, and timeless.

I could not recommend treehouse studios enough! We had a very laid back micro wedding on a beach and Karly made sure to capture our day beautifully. Not only did she deliver a ton of wonderful photos, she was there from the first day for us. Any questions, concerns or ideas- she was on top of it. I never had to wait more than a day for a reply to my email and her responses were always thorough and thoughtful, I never felt like I was annoying her. Our whole wedding was very much a "budget" wedding. We didn't do a lot of traditional wedding things, nor did we hire many vendors, etc. . However, photography was one thing we wanted to splurge on and were very careful in picking our photographer. Our wedding day was a dream and Karly captured that perfectly. She was not only easy to work with but also very personable, even our guests commented how much they enjoyed her. So yourself a favor and book with Treehouse Studios, you won't be disappointed!

Let me start off by saying I am pretty shy and am usually not the most photogenic gal out there. You can probably imagine how anxious I was going into our wedding planning - I was pretty worried about my awkwardness in front of a camera and the impact that would have on our wedding photos. But then I met LaDonna, and that all changed! She was so nice and professional in her approach and she really took the time to help me find my confidence in front of a camera. She was really patient and encouraging and was really great at giving me some direction early on at the beginning in teaching me how to look natural; by the time it came to our real sessions, I found I was hardly even thinking about my insecurities and instead found I was just living in the moment with my husband-to-be! I feel so much more comfortable and confident in myself after having worked with LaDonna - and I couldn’t be happier with the photos!! Thanks to her, I have beautiful pictures from our big day to cherish and the self confidence to keep taking photos with my husband to cherish our memories for a lifetime. So if you’re shy like me, this is for you!

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!

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 absolutely fantastic to work with. She was so much fun made us feel like absolute rock stars during our engagement session wedding. Mary was even willing to meet us in Miami to shoot our engagement photos in a one of a kind location.

As a florist, Caroline was such a breeze to work with! On wedding day it was so clear that she was organized and she brought such a fun energy to the vendor team. But her photo work is makes her truly exceptional! She was so gracious to share photos with me after a lovely wedding day in October that I could share on my social media. As a fellow vendor I had such an appreciation for how she not only captured the emotion on a wedding day, but how she captured all of the little details as well! SHE IS AMAZING! You will not regret having her on your team!

Hi, I'm Madalyn Muncy-Piens, the lady behind the lens over here at Madalyn Muncy Photography. I'm not into being the center of attention so I keep your wedding ALL ABOUT YOU. I'm all about balance, so I'm the perfect combination of organized and flexible, proactive yet not overbearing, knowledgeable but not bossy, and a comforting presence both with and without a camera in hand. When you hire me, you get someone who genuinely cares about comparing photos of our dogs, sharing recipes for dinner, and listening to your book recommendations. Check out my website or Instagram to learn more about me!

I hired Madalyn for my wedding in 2020, and have since recommended her to every bride I've met! No one in my family was necessarily comfortable in front of the camera, but Madalyn has a way of calming people and getting them to relax. We have beautiful posed photos from our wedding, but some of my favorites were the natural, candid shots! Additionally, she is always responsive and timely; she delivered sneak peeks of our pictures just days after our wedding, and the rest of our photos came exactly when she set the expectation for delivery. If you're looking for a vendor who is personable, calming, and kind, she's your gal!

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.

Becca was easy to communicate with, especially since we were in different states! She was flexible with our timeline and offered a lot of recommendations in regards to clothing and makeup. During the photoshoot, she had great insight on where would be a great backdrop and wasn’t afraid to let me know when my smile looked fake! We are so in love with our photos and the ease of working with Becca…I would recommend her for absolutely anything you need photographed!

Trevor Ritsema Photography

Kalamazoo, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Lake Leelanau, MI

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!!

Clarkston, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Lake Leelanau, MI

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
8 years ago I became an Astrid Cordier Bride and it was one of the best decisions I have made in my life! Looking back at my wedding day, the most valuable thing to me by far is the unbelievable photos! It is my most beloved memories of the day I married my soulmate and best friend, and also the day my mother was still alive- walking me down the aisle! I cherish these everlasting memories captured perfectly on the photos that my children now admire, and that their children will one day look at and talk about. Our photos will pass from generation to generation and I am proud of my photos. Astrid Cordier captured each moment perfectly! She made us feel confident & beautiful in front of the camera and she could even get my husband (who does not like photos in general) to smile and enjoy taking each photo! I will book her services for as long as I live. Soon when my 10 year anniversary comes up, she will surely be the first person I contact to take the photos at our Wedding vow renewal ceremony. Highly recommended!!! I am proud to call myself an Astrid Cordier Bride!
