I’m Katy, a Michigan based wedding + event photographer who loves to travel. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016. My love for photography started out when I was about 6 years old. I’m a huge goofball, so if you’ve ever thought “I’ll be too awkward in photos," I know what you mean. We can be goofballs together, and I promise I won’t let you look awkward in any of your photos. A little more about me: I'm a foodie. Send bar/restaurant recommendations please! I spend a good portion of my time at concerts when I'm not photographing anything. I'm also a HUUUUGE Detroit Red Wings fan!

Where to begin? Finding Katy was truly one of the biggest blessings of our wedding process. It was very important to find a photographer who we felt had, and actively displayed, the ability to photograph in an inclusive, respectful and honest manner. We are an interfaith couple with family and friends who fall everywhere along the social, identity and religious spectrum. Once we found Katy, we were blown away by the love, care and diversity showcased in her portfolio. Upon meeting with her virtually, we were convinced that she was the right person. Katy is kind, understanding and VERY good at what she does. When it comes to the work, Katy was proactive without being pushy and really took to heart what we wanted out of our photos. Over the course of the experience, we were able to develop a real friendship with her because she is that good of a person. The day of the event, Katy was locked in and on top of everything. Prior to our weekend, she had done an amazing job of giving us prep sheets and coordinating as much detail as possible so the big day could just glide. Katy and her second shooter Jen (who was amazing, too!) were professional, fun and didn't miss a moment of the day. Everything from planned photos to impromptu shots felt fun and natural. Getting back the album completely blew past our expectations. Every photo captured exactly what we had discussed with her. So many photographs left us speechless. Katy should be at the top of your list if you want great photos full of love, care, and magic. She is down to earth and was the only photographer we spoke to that didn't make us feel like we were just another gig for them.

Mollan Photography

Rochester, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

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!

Matt is simply the best. He exceeded every expectation and was so easy to work with. He helped us plan our entire timeline for the day and everything went phenomenal. Highly recommended.

Hello! My name is Tonya. First and foremost, I am a mom to a beautiful little boy (who, let's face it, is completely tired of mom's camera!). I started behind a camera almost fifteen years ago when my grandpa first showed me how to use his. I live for the click of the shutter, capturing those moments that will be gone but never forgotten. Having been a previous cast member at Walt Disney World (and other theme parks), I found that I love the organized chaos that comes with photographing a wedding. Not to mention, who doesn't adore capturing the love between two people?

Awarded Best of Zola
When we first got engaged and we found tonya i expressed how worried i was that we had never done photos before and had no clue what we really wanted but i knew i didnt want them to look posed i wanted our emotions to show through. She was very understanding and helpful she sent me some pictures shed done before and then i went pintrest crazy :). Then i found out i was pregnant and we decided to postpone our wedding she was super understanding and happy for us and stayed in contact with us as we tried to come up with a new date. I absolutely loved working with tonya she did an amazing job on our pictures i swear i fall more in love with them each time i look at them. She also worked well with some of the nerdy pictures we wanted which envolved harry potter and star wars :). I had something i wanted to change in one of our wedding photos(she was already done editing our photos) for a Christmas gift for my husband and she was all for it and it turned out absolutely perfect. I fully recommend using her for any of your photography needs.

She did such a beautiful job capturing our precious moments, and made us look like the absolute best versions of ourselves! We looked so natural and comfortable, which is exactly what we had hoped for. Katelynn is extremely professional, she's a total dream to work with! Katelynn helped us so much with our timeline, giving us ideas about how to structure the day, and she picked the most beautiful bridal party photo location.. her familiarity with the metro Detroit locations is a total game changer!

My name is Erin Oginsky and I am the owner and photographer behind EJO Photography. I first learned how to use a camera in 1999, when I took a photography class in college. Since then I have loved taking pictures, but did not start taking photos professionally until 2008! Since then I have learned and grown as a photographer. I love photographing weddings, engagements, and families. In addition to photography, my passion is my children, my husband, and the non-profit we run, Mission 25.

Awarded Best of Zola
Erin shot my wedding and made my day absolutely incredible! To be honest I was so happy to get married that I didn’t do the best job of delegating and knowing every single photo I wanted. But it was like Erin read my mind. Every single moment I would want captured from that day was caught in an even better way than I could’ve imagined. She somehow managed to freeze our emotions and our love from that day and actually helped inspire me and my love of photography as well! She does a great job of keeping everyone on track and doing the hard things that you don’t want to be in charge of on your wedding day. I highly recommend her!

Lake Orion, MI
  • Photojournalistic style

Hi!! I'm Jen, the heart and soul behind Jen Marie Imagery! I'm passionate about creating unforgettable memories through my lens. Beyond being a dedicated photographer, I'm a coffee lover, taco enthusiast, concert junkie, Netflix aficionado, and proud pet parent. My journey with photography started as a childhood passion, using up all my mom's film on disposable cameras. What began as a hobby transformed into my life's calling in 2016 when I booked my first wedding. From that moment, I knew I had found my true purpose. 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. I can not wait to work with her again. If you’re looking for your wedding photographer, don’t hesitate to reach out to her!

Hi There! I'm Marci... photographer, parent, and lover of life. You'll find me taking photos, traveling, in the water or preferably doing all three (like my above photo from Australia). I've been a full time photographer since I graduated from U of M and absolutely love what I do. Weddings are my happy place.

I take my job seriously, but wedding days are a ton of fun and so I have fun too... being creative, enjoying capturing love stories and snarfing really good food. I think the joy I have for life is reflected throughout my photos.

Working with Madalyn is dream a come true! I will say that a hundred times over. Throughout our wedding planning process, especially in this time of change and uncertainty, we couldn’t help but to compare all our other vendors to Madalyn and the way she runs her business. No one else even measured close! Madalyn is organized, proactive, supportive, honest, and obviously has an eye for both detail and aesthetic. Our communications with Madalyn leading up to our day were a perfect balance of face-to-face conversations and seamless digital interactions. When our wedding day finally arrived we felt like we really knew her and completely trusted her. I thought we couldn’t love Madalyn anymore, but then we received the final product -our gallery. Madalyn captured a thousand memories so perfectly that we’ll truly treasure forever. A particular photo is so classically beautiful that we exclaimed, “That’s it! That’s the photo we’ll show our grandchildren someday.” Thank you again, Madalyn!

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.

Hello and thank you for visiting my Zola profile! I'm Anita and photography is my passion! It could have been the fact I come from a very artistic family especially my late great uncle. Unfortunately I never met him but I was so inspired by his work that I too started my journey in 2004. I greatly love the beauty of nature and wildlife as well as telling people's stories. When I went to school for visual arts, my teachers have taught me the fundamentals of composition, conveying emotion and again, most importantly telling a story. And that's exactly what I love doing when I take pictures!

I would highly recommend Anita for wedding and engagement photography. She has a great eye and does a fantastic job of editing with professional delivery.

Working with Emily Kyle Photography was the best wedding decision we made.

loved that smaller packages for photography and videography were available! Easy communication, great value, excellent photos. Jeron took the care and consideration to film our entire ceremony so that family members that couldn't come could see it. Jeron also was flexible, even moving our family photos to a shadier spot because it was a sunny day, and then editing out the laundry line that was in the background in the shadier spot. Thank you!

Hi! At Promani Weddings, we are a local wedding media team that specializes in capturing the magic of wedding celebrations. Led by owner and accomplished photographer/filmmaker Benjamin, our dedicated team of talented photographers and videographers excels at transforming your special day into timeless memories. In thanks to high demand from all of our amazing couples, we have established incredible teams in Michigan, Tennessee and North Carolina!! I can't wait to hear from you and learn more about your wedding.

Exceptional Wedding Photography Experience I recently had the pleasure of working with a Ben and his team (shout out Mike!!), Promani Weddings, whose talent and professionalism made our wedding day truly unforgettable. From the moment we met, it was clear that he wasn't just there to take pictures—he was invested in ensuring our special day was captured in the most beautiful and authentic way possible. -Personable and Friendly Approach One of the standout qualities of our photographer was his warm and personable demeanor. He immediately put us at ease, making us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. This was especially appreciated during those hectic pre-ceremony moments when nerves were running high. His ability to connect with us and our guests on a personal level created an atmosphere of trust and camaraderie, which translated into natural and genuine photographs. -Unique Candid Photography Technique What truly set our photographer apart was his innovative use of candid photography. Instead of staging every shot, he discreetly captured spontaneous moments that perfectly encapsulated the emotions and relationships of everyone present. This approach resulted in photos that felt alive and authentic, reflecting the true essence of the love and joy we experienced that day. Looking through our wedding album, we were amazed at how he managed to capture moments we didn't even realize were happening, yet are now some of our most cherished memories. If you’re on the fence about doing candid photography for your wedding, this is your sign to DO IT! -Superb Communication and Understanding Throughout the planning process, our photographer was incredibly communicative and attentive. He took the time to understand our vision for the day and worked closely with us to ensure every detail was accounted for. His professionalism and dedication were evident in his proactive approach to logistics and his responsiveness to our questions and concerns. He was not just a hired vendor but a true partner in ensuring our wedding photography exceeded our expectations. -Execution of Vision On the day of the wedding, Ben seamlessly executed the vision we had discussed. His keen eye for detail and mastery of light and composition resulted in stunning images that captured the beauty of the venue, the emotions of our guests, and the intimacy of our ceremony. He balanced capturing the big moments with the subtle nuances that made our day unique, ensuring that every aspect of our celebration was documented with care and artistry. I cannot recommend Ben, Mike and Promani Weddings highly enough. His talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his craft shone through in every interaction and in every photograph. He not only met but exceeded our expectations, delivering a collection of images that we will treasure for a lifetime. It’s been two weeks since our wedding and we already have our edited photos, highlight reel and full ceremony video. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only capture moments but also enhance your wedding day experience, look no further. Hiring him was one of the best decisions we made, and we are forever grateful for the memories he preserved so beautifully.

My husband and I are very nervous and uncomfortable with our pictures being taken but Joe and Ashley immediately made us feel comfortable and confident. Our engagement pics were STUNNING! Because of this, we ended up extending our wedding package to include our rehearsal and rehearsal dinner. Joe and Ashley were part of our entire wedding weekend and were one of our favorite parts. They were calm, extremely professional, constantly being flexible with weather and lighting, and so accommodating to my husband and I and our entire bridal party. They were so unbelievable that we received texts and calls from guests about how appreciative they were of Joe and Ashley - and this was BEFORE our wedding day pics even were released! Needless to say, our pictures and videos from our wedding weekend were perfect. Joe and Ashley have a keen eye for beautiful shots and what works for each couple.

I’m addicted to capturing who you are and your tale as it unfolds (the photojournalistic approach gives me life). I can occasionally be found sipping on bubble tea while indulging in Doctor Who, Sherlock, or Merlin marathons. Being diagnosed with Lupus at 16, I had to give up my ultimate goal of being a pilot in the Air Force. After my first year of Law School, I felt a bit empty and sat down to take a serious look at my life. I never saw it as a career path and pretty much wrote it off until 2016. I'm extremely blessed to be able to work with so many amazing people. Full: www.chettaratphotography.com/about

I truly wish and probably will print out ALL of the photos. This was the best decision we've made (outside of getting married of course :) ) and I would highly HIGHLY recommend you hire her for not just wedding photos, but engagement/modeling, etc!

I was looking for suggestions for photographers on facebook when I found these two lovely ladies. They were a lot of fun and easy to work with, plus they had reasonable and competitive prices. first I had them for my engagement photos. they really listened to what I wanted and even brought some of their own props. since both my then fiancé and I had never had photos like this done before, we were nervous and felt awkward, but once we got going they helped to make us feel comfortable and by the end of it we felt like besties! We had a a change of plans and ended up deciding to get married just a few months after that. The problem was that we planned our entire wedding in less than 10 days. it was super chaotic and fun, but I was so worried tat when I called them they would not be able to be our wedding photographers since it was so last minute….

She is there for whatever YOU want. She helped me immensely with the timeline of my wedding day, and even would hop on phone/video calls with me if I had any questions or concerns leading up to my wedding day.

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 is one of the most creative wedding photographers working today. During the leadup, she'll work closely with you to understand the nuances of your day. And when the day arrives, she'll document your sentimental moments in a thoughtful, discreet manner. My background is in art and design, and every time I look at her images, I'm so incredibly impressed by her artistic vision. But perhaps even more importantly, the photographs remind me of how special the day was and how warm and accommodating Rayan was throughout the entire experience. I can't imagine it without her.

Hey! Hello! What's happening? I'm Erika, owner and lead photographer of It Clicks Photo. I love learning about your love story, how you knew your significant other was the one, and any embarrassing stories you two have endured over time. I'm sure I have a few I feel the need to tell you about, too! I'm a very accepting, down to earth lady who values and appreciates your authentic- straight to the core- self. Capturing your wedding day fills me with life, and makes me feel all butterfly-ish and bubbly inside. Can't wait to meet you both! (PS- I love to travel! There isn't a place I won't go- honestly.)

Erika has been my favorite photographer to work with since we met a few years ago. I just love her work! As a DJ it is important to be able to work well with vendors. Especially the ones capturing the big day. It has always been very easy for me to work with Erika and her team so I recommend her every chance I get. I have noticed over the years that she is naturally a creative fun and easy going person which in my opinion is always a great quality for a wedding professional. I look forward to working with Ericka and the whole itclicks team for years to come.

We like to laugh and explore. We love music, friends, and all things unique. We share a common interest in a good vinyl and never turn down the chance to see a live band. We are Netflix bingers. You'll also find us getting lost on YouTube watching bloopers from our favorite shows (Chris Pratt gets us every time) and music videos from our favorite 2000's punk rock bands. We cherish time with our friends watching movies or playing board games while eating tacos.

Diana and team were simply the best! You want a bestie during wedding planning, you want a hype girl as you just get into your wedding dress. Diana is your girl! I booked Diana after many other phone calls with other photographers, she spent literally an hour on the phone with me getting to know me, my fiance and our life. Never once did she mention her availability or prices. Which was really refreshing after having so many vendors treat you like just a paycheck. We became besties in that conversation. During our engagement session she cheered us on even tho we were so awkward in front of the camera. You could never tell by the photos! One word. Stunning! Diana will reach out periodically during the time up to the wedding and help with locations, other vendors and help with time lines. We had many conversations and most of them started with “how are we feeling about wedding planning”…. What vendor thinks like a best friend rather than a vendor in this day and age of wedding craziness… Swatch studios does! They go above and beyond! Day of wedding if I needed something Diana was right there cheering me on, it was 90 degrees on my wedding day and 90% humidity. I was a sweat mess, she kept saying like oh yes girl and pose like “ that’s my husband… yas!” Which honestly is why I’m obsessed with every single wedding photo we got back! When the time came for Diana to leave for the night. I cried because I was so sad our time get together was over. If my novel doesn’t convince you, that you need to at least schedule a chat with Swatch Studios … are you even a bride?!

Here's what you should know: First, it's pronounced Sokol like 'vocal'. We're Polish... like kraut-and-pierogi-at-every-family-gathering-Polish. Second, we're a husband and wife wedding photography duo that believes it's the little things that make the story come to life. From the knowing glances across a crowded room to the hand squeezes when you're about to walk down the aisle, you can trust us to capture your most romantic, candid moments.

Sav has captured our engagement, wedding, maternity, and family photos so far. Her pure skill and talent are unmatched. She’s professional and so down to earth. Hands down the best investment to hire Sav. The memories she captures are PRICELESS.

My name is Alicia, and I'm a designer/photographer living in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I am so thankful that I am able to capture the love stories of real people and provide them with honest, unposed images that they will cherish for the rest of their lives. Thank you for stopping by. I would love to work with you. Let's chase some light together.

We will treasure Alicia’s photos FOREVER. She was so amazing to have around on our big day and made us feel totally comfortable and at ease. We originally didn’t want to spend a lot of time on photos (we’d rather be hanging out with our family and friends!) but Alicia made taking photos so fun that we wanted to keep taking photos! We will really treasure these forever :)

I strive to create beautiful, timeless, and honest images. I want your wedding and family photos to resonate 100 years from now, so I tend to focus on candid moments and human connection. I want my couples to have it all — stunning portraiture, tender moments with loved ones, and effervescent (sometimes wild) reception photos.

Cat is absolutely wonderful to work with. Not only are her photos beautiful, she is a joy to work with and turns around projects quickly. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Honestly, we're pretty bad at talking about ourselves, but here we are! We love taking photos, and are grateful we've been able to photograph for over a decade! Collectively our experience has brought us across the country (and globe!) photographing and filming weddings, families, and more for all different clients, specifically with a narrative cinematic feel. We have been working together since we met in college, married shortly after that in Southern California, and have lived in Los Angeles, the East Coast, and planted roots in Detroit. We are parents to two wonderful boys, and caretakers of two cats and a dog.

I had the pleasure of working with Jamie and Paul as a wedding planner. They were easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding, and they were beyond helpful as we developed a rain plan for the couple. Despite the dreary weather, they managed to capture beautiful outdoor and indoor photos. I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again soon!

Genevieve Devries Photography

Detroit, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Lakeland, MI

I’m an IT professional by day, a photographer by night, a mom & wife every second of the day. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m married to my soul mate and together we have two young, rowdy boys that we have LOTS of fun with. I grew up in Argentina and that’s shaped me in more ways than I can explain. I have a deep rooted connection to people & places and often wear my heart right on my sleeve. I am very ‘laid-back’ & focused when in a photo session. I do more looking than talking to make sure I get the vision just right. I provide specific direction when it’s needed and vague direction to get the intimate candids.

Genevieve is incredibly talented! Your wedding day is one of the most important days in your life, but it all goes by so fast. Genevieve has an amazing ability to capture moments in time that may otherwise be forgotten. Looking at our wedding pictures was an opportunity for us to slow down and take in every second of our special day. We laughed, cried, and smiled as we took in all of the moments that she so beautifully captured. We couldn't be happier with our choice in photographer. Genevieve is artistic, creative, and has an eye for capturing the extraordinary.

We are committed to helping people find their voice and tell their unique stories through photography! Every story is unique and it is our goal to get to know you so that we can document your story authentically. If you're looking for super posed photos of your day, that's okay but Im probably not the best fit! But if youre a fun-loving couple that oozes chemistry and can't keep your eyes (or hands) off of each other, and you want that captured genuinely, I'm your girl!

What can I say other than they are ‘outstanding’ having you both capture moments that we will look back on and treasure forever, is SO incredibly special. The dream team duo! I could not be happier with the end result and we would happily recommend them to anyone. I cannot recommend them more to be at the top of your guest list. Not only were the quality of the photos perfect, the communication was the BEST. They really helped move our timeline along and stayed on top of everything and really captured the day the way I saw it. I have never been so happy to have them on our team, thank you so much!
