Gage Horne Studios 

5.0

  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Merrill, MI for additional fees

My name is Gage Horne, the owner of Gage Horne Studios. I started my company in 2019 (officially) but have been doing video work starting at the age of 11. It started as gaming videos uploaded to YouTube, to shooting professional dance films in college, to starting my own Video Production Service. I found true passion in my work when I realized how important wedding videos are. I had already shot 100+ films before my wedding but realized as a consumer how valuable it is. I love what I do and finding intriguing/interesting ways to display those pieces is what keeps me creative and constantly making my films better.

Gage and his team were so great to work with. They made sure to get every important shot and really helped us customize the wedding video!

I first heard Erica sing in a more casual setting, but I later found out she also sung at weddings. I loved her voice and acoustic style so I asked if she might be willing to use her talent at our wedding. My dad had recently passed away, and I was wanting to include a couple of his favorite hymns as a part of our ceremony. Erica did a beautiful job leading our guests in singing, and it truly was the perfect tribute to his memory.

Awarded Best of Zola
Finding the right videographer was incredibly important to us because we wanted more than just photos. We wanted to capture the voices, the laughter, the tears, the movement—every emotion that made our day unforgettable. At first, we struggled to find a connection with the work we saw, but after months of searching online, we came across Alex V Films, and his work left a lasting impression on us. It was exactly what we had been searching for. From the moment we met Alex, his warm personality and passion for his craft put us completely at ease. He took the time to understand our vision, showing incredible attention to detail and truly listening to what we wanted. His talent for capturing not only the big moments but also those small, candid interactions brought everything to life in a way we could only dream of. Alex was able to beautifully weave our vows into the movement and storytelling of our film, bringing each word to life. In my vows, I shared a memory about my papa. As he approached his final days, I asked him, “Papa, what can you tell me about love?” He gently touched his chest and said, “You feel it in your heart.” Alex captured this moment with such care; as I spoke the words, “my papa touched his chest,” the video transitioned to my wife, sliding her hand gently down my chest, mirroring my papa’s gesture. It was as if he had breathed life into our vows, capturing not just the words, but the emotion and legacy behind them. Alex made the experience of working with him enjoyable. Throughout the process, his communication was top-notch, and professionalism shone through every step of the way. He was attentive of our needs and made the process easy. Alex didn’t just record our day—he captured its essence. Every look, every laugh, every precious detail we wanted to hold onto is now a part of a beautiful memory we’ll cherish for a lifetime. These are moments that photos alone could never fully capture; they’re filled with emotions that will be felt and connected to for years to come. At the beginning of this process, Alex was a stranger. As we got to know him we felt as though he became a friend. We’re forever grateful to have found Alex, who created more than just a video—he created a keepsake of our love and joy that we will cherish for a lifetime.

  • Ceremony only
  • Serves Merrill, MI for additional fees

By the time she was three years old, Olivia Claggett was asking for a harp teacher. At six years old, she began taking piano lessons with Jean Wonders, and at eight she began Suzuki harp lessons with professional harpist, instructor, and adjudicator Candyce Dunham. She never looked back after her first lesson in October 2007. During her many years as a student, Olivia continued to push herself musically by competing in numerous competitions winning the annual Buckeye Christian School Organization’s spring competition for five consecutive years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Sharon Valley Harp, LLC / Olivia provided exquisite, high-quality, and truly memorable musical accompaniment for our wedding ceremony. From the moment we first spoke with the owner, we were impressed by their professional, attentive, organized, personable, and responsive communication style. They went above and beyond by learning the specific song I (the bride) wanted to walk down the aisle to, making that moment deeply personal and unforgettable. Her beautiful harp music set a tone of elegance and love throughout the ceremony, creating the perfect atmosphere and enhancing every heartfelt moment. Additionally, Sharon Valley Sweets LLC - homemade cookies that we got were absolutely amazing - each bite brought back warm memories of grandma's baking, comforting, delicious, and made with love. They were a beautiful and delicious touch that everyone adored. I highly recommend Sharon Valley Harp, LLC if you're looking for exceptional musical talent and homemade treats that make you feel right at home on your special day.

Hey there! Since you are trusting me to capture these special moments in your life, I figured you should probably know a bit about me, right? I am a Huntsville, Alabama native, but moved to Nashville after graduating from the University of Alabama in 2013. ROLL TIDE! Although I consider Nashville home, I am anything but a homebody. I love traveling and exploring new places (especially the food at those places!). I even studied abroad in Italy, which let me tell you, was a food lover's dream. I have always felt like an old soul trapped in a millennial’s body. I would rather listen to Frank Sinatra than anything on the radio today.

Awarded Best of Zola
PLEASE READ - IT'S A LOT BUT YOU SHOULD REALLY KNOW: Diana is BEYOND incredible. When you book with her, you are booking so much more than just a photographer. Her soul is so unique and personable. I did not have a wedding planner as I am so picky and wanted to embrace it all on my own - and with Diana I was in fact NOT alone. Any minor or major inconvenience she was there to help me figure it out. I gained such a beautiful personal relationship with her, and I am so happy to say we are friends for life since we had our first phone call. I "spoke" with 3 different photographers, and Diana was the only one that provided information over a call - but also took time to for us to get to know each other and understand mine and my husband's vision. Her laugh is infectious, and her work is palpable. I could write for days about how awesome she is.

The Makeup Loft

  • Beauty professional

  • Serves Merrill, MI for additional fees

From Bridal to Bachelorette, from Photo Shoots to Parties -- we cover all areas of Makeup! In addition to providing modern, top-of-the-line makeup service, The Makeup Loft also offers Special event hairstyling, Cosmetic Color Consultation, and Makeup Lessons covering all spectrums of beautification.

We were so happy with The Makeup Loft! We hired them for bridal party hair and makeup, and they traveled to our hotel in Ann Arbor. The stylists who came were super nice, and most importantly, on time! :) I don't get professional makeup done often, so one thing I was worried about was not looking like myself, or the stylist taking the inspiration too literally and not adapting the inspiration to suit my face shape/skin tone/etc. However, I was super impressed with both artists, who really took everyone's vision and brought it to life on each person as an individual. I still looked and felt like myself, but just super glam! :) My bridal party had many different skin tones and hair textures, and everyone's final look turned out great!!! Overall, I would absolutely recommend The Makeup Loft to brides!

She knows how to handle people and is so detail oriented. I cannot imagine my wedding day without her. Thank you Megan!! 3

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was looking for hair/makeup for my wedding, I knew I wanted a team who could do both. I also knew I wanted someone who has extensive experience with my facial features. Crystal Drake did an amazing job for my mom, my bridesmaids, and myself. My trial was 4 months before my wedding, and I was able to schedule it so it was the same day as my engagement photos. Crystal is SO thorough and easy to work with. I was planning this wedding from a completely different time zone, and she was very accommodating/understanding of my schedule. She uses a portal which includes all of your documents/contracts/important information. One thing that really stood out to me about Crystal during my first meeting with her before deciding was she asked me who my photographer was so she could match my makeup to my photographer’s style. This was a detail I didn’t even think about, but made so much sense. She has questionnaires for you to fill out ahead of time so she can get a better sense of what you want. At my trial she asked what specifically I liked about each of the photos so she could help me achieve the look I wanted. I wanted natural looking makeup since I don’t wear makeup often. I wanted a dewy/glowy look with fluffy eyebrows. During the trial she made sure to always ask me what I liked and didn’t like. She was always open to feedback and listened to what I wanted. She would also give feedback regarding certain things that maybe would not work well or achieve the look I wanted, which I really appreciated because I am not a professional. She took notes throughout the whole thing to make sure I would have the perfect look. At the end of my trial, she took test photos with similar lighting/editing as my photographer to make sure my makeup captured correctly. Even after my trial, she followed up to make sure I liked the way my makeup looked in my engagement photos. Crystal sent a day off schedule ahead of time and asked if I needed to make any changes. The week before and the few days before she confirmed time/location/services. Come wedding day, her team was of course incredible! We got ready at my parents’ place. They came right on time, and we finished with 40 minutes to spare. If you are looking for hair/makeup for your big day, Crystal Drake is your go to!

Hi, I'm McKenna! The person behind the camera and a hopeless romantic. I describe my photography style as candid, romantic, and timeless. My goal is to make a human connection with all my clients and deliver images that you'll love forever. I started 1828 Collective in 2016 after I realized that capturing relationships and telling love stories was my passion. Four years later I'm so in love with my job that I often forget I'm working. I find joy in capturing love, hearing about how you met, and everything in between.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express how incredibly thankful we were for choosing McKenna to capture our big day. McKenna was so friendly and charismatic from the start and she fit right into the craziness and chaos of our life without missing a beat. She was flexible and super communicative, especially when it rained on the day of our engagement photos, which really helped to calm our nerves and make the session comfortable and fun. She stepped right into the flow of things on our wedding day and kept everyone on schedule and in good spirits. The photos came back better than I could've imagined and our guests haven't stopped talking about them. To say that McKenna is talented would be an understatement and I'll certainly be asking her to capture the rest of our big life moments!

Hey there! I'm Nicole! I am a confident and raw documentary Detroit wedding photographer serving couples with enthusiasm and sincerity. I am uniquely gifted at blending into the background from center stage and guiding you through the day with ease. I believe that integrity and sincerity outweigh popularity. So, I'm focused on your desires and interests. Yes, I'm a professional wedding photographer who has been in the business since 2012 with published work, but it's not the "pretty" pictures that matter. It's you! You're the reason I started pursuing my passion over 8 years ago. ​

We hired Nicole for our engagement photos and as our wedding photographer. She was wonderful to work with and made the process feel very easy and stress free. She was very organized. I loved that we had access to documents on what to expect and vendors she recommended. I appreciate that she had detailed questionnaires that helped her guide us in what venues we may like and what themes or styles we wanted to these big occasions. We were photographed at the Detroit Library and a pizza parlor for our engagement photos. Our wedding was at St. Johns. I would definitely recommend Nicole!

If adventure makes your heart beat fast, you don't mind straying from tradition, sarcasm and retro music are your love languages, and if you're down to frolic through an open field with me, we'll be best friends in no time. When you choose your wedding photographer, it's about so much more than just hiring a professional to take your photos - it's about connecting with someone who'll capture your special day with intention. So be sure to ask all your questions, and make sure you *click* (pun intended) with the person behind the camera!

Faith is one of the most intentional people I’ve met — she was there every step of the way during wedding planning to support us and provided so much comfort and overall good vibes on the day of! I felt so at ease the entire wedding day, and I credit that to our incredible vendor team, Faith and her team included. I received so many sneak peek pics just under a week after my wedding (a few I got almost immediately!!), and it was amazing to be able to relive those moments already and share them with friends and family. Seeing how she captured these moments, big and small, makes me SO excited to see the final gallery!!! Her editing style is simply gorgeous — it was the main reason I reached out to her initially — but she’s also just a wonderful friend and human. When you already feel like you know someone, it makes it so much easier to be your authentic selves in front of the camera, and for that to shine through in photos. We both have so much love for Faith and are forever grateful she was there to document the beginning of the newest chapter of our love story

Photography truly has a full grip on my soul– I love EVERYTHING about capturing special moments to be forever held in time! I consider my style to be way more candid, as I truly adore capturing an authentic experience that is almost tangible to the person viewing the photo. I want the viewer to feel the emotion and as if they were there with us right back in that moment. I love realness of a perfect candid shot…my goal—especially with couples—is to get to the heart of their connection and connect with my couples, as well, to truly make them feel comfortable in front of the lens so that we can get to those authentic magic shots!

We had the pleasure of working with MoonTide Media for our wedding photography/videography. Shannon and Ally were an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. Their communication throughout the planning process was fantastic - they consistently kept us updated on travel plans and made sure we were all on the same page regarding the photography timeline. Most importantly, the quality of their work is stunning. We recently received a preview of some of our photos and were brought to tears by the beautiful images capturing our special day. Shannon and Ally have a true talent for capturing emotional moments without ever getting in the way. They were the hardest working team at our venue, going above and beyond to get every possible shot we could have imagined. We felt so comfortable with them that they even grabbed some extra candids of our wedding party that we had asked for with no issues.

Jenni and her team did a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. We felt so comfortable from the moment we first met with her and that definitely translated to how easy it felt taking direction from her for our wedding day photos. Her team took time to get to know us and figure out what we were comfortable with so it felt natural (we're not the most comfortable in front of the camera but somehow she figured out how to get those sweet in the moment shots without it feeling forced!). The photos turned out stunning. From the formal portraits to our mountain top vows to the sweetest candids she captured of me and my dad and my adorable nieces and nephews there’s seriously so many amazing photos to choose from. I also appreciated how organized she was with our formal portrait list keeping it quick and everyone ready to move through those as soon as possible. Cannot recommend her enough. Thank you so much Jenni! We absolutely could not dream of better photos!

Tara Beth Photography is a place of inclusion, empathy, intimacy, and care. From the first email, I take care with my clients. Considering them all unique, and with that, their stories being unique. We talk about how you want to be captured, how your love should be captured. We go over insecurities, love stories, and anything else that may come up during our Zoom calls. I don't want to be just someone you hire. I want to be considered someone you trust, and enjoy to have around!

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Tara Beth for our wedding in December 2022. We started following her instagram years prior and fell in love with how she captured every moment, from the guests to the couple. Not only were her photos amazing, but being a part of the LGBTQ community can feel daunting at times when reaching out to vendors, specifically for same-sex weddings. We had a few tough experiences with other vendors in regards to being a same-sex couple, but Tara Beth, as she is a part of the community, made it easy to feel comfortable and accepting. We contacted her and were met with a quick response. From the start, we knew she was the one. Her vibe and passion for love sold us! My wife and I were very nervous to take photos, but Tara Beth reassured us that she would walk us through everything - and she did just that. She talked us through our first look and it was an amazing experience. She also guided our party and family photos, which was super helpful as we were able to get our photos done ahead of schedule! We appreciate everything Tara Beth did for our special day and would recommend her 100 times over!

I loved working with Allison from the very first consultation. She has such a bubbly & sweet attitude we clicked right away. Some of my favorite things were how professional she was, we got sneak peaks the next day, our entire album so quickly, and everyone at the wedding loved her. We had so much fun dancing with her and her assistant on the dance floor! Couldn’t reccommed her enough!
