Holland, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,600

Hi, I'm Avery! I am West Michigan born and raised, with a bit of a roaming side. You can find me traveling the great outdoors, reading a good book or sunset watching at the lake. I thrive on God’s great love and creation. Farming runs deep through my family roots, so I guess you could call me a farm girl. I’m a homebody at heart, with a passion to adventure. I fell in love with photography when I picked up my mom’s old camera in middle school. I'd capture everything from blades of grass to the cattle on my farm. 5 years later, using my cattle as models has turned into photographing weddings and capturing everything from portraits to families.

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,600

I am an intimate wedding photographer based out of my home state, the Mitten. To sum it up, I'm laid back, chill, and ready to hang out. I call myself an intimate wedding photographer because I work best with couples who want a smaller, more close-knit feel to their wedding day and because I offer my clients a sense of familiarity, and comfortability and help them feel relaxed and ready for the day ahead. By the end-we're great friends! My hope with every session I have is that you'll find not only the pictures beautiful but the shared experience one to remember as well.

Kaitlin did a fantastic job capturing my wedding day. She got along so well with everyone in the wedding party which made shooting a blast. Her work is outstanding, she is so easy to work with, and I would recommend her to everyone.

Alfield Reeves Photography 

5.0

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700

I am a Liberian-American portrait & editorial photographer based in West Michigan. I specialize in creating work that encourages self-reflection and expression, promotes equitable action and showcases the black and brown identity and culture. My images are warm, quiet and bold. They bridge traditional divides between photojournalism, portraiture and fashion. My work is featured in magazines and online platforms like Vogue Greece, Grand Rapids Magazine, Grand Rapids Business Journal, ProPublica, and The Trace to name a few. My work has been part of numerous exhibitions locally and statewide.

My husband and I got married in 2019. We booked Alfield for our engagement photos and our wedding photos. The price is so worth the quality and experience you get when working with Alfield. We literally got our photos back the same week as our wedding. All of them were edited, even a physical photo box and custom-created album. Very professional, timely, and easy to work with. No hassle and I never had to worry about any of the logistics related to photography. Alfield seemed to have everything down to a science and every shot was perfect. He could walk around the city and with ease find beautiful shots. He is an artist and an incredible one at that. He had a small team on the day of the wedding, in order to capture both sides of the pre-wedding moments. Whenever I have a need for a photographer, I immediately reach out to Alfield, and can't see that changing unless he becomes unavailable. I have since done professional headshots with him, which came out perfect and just how I envisioned. I highly highly HIGHLY recommend hiring Alfield for any wedding photography or ANY photo needs for that matter. I couldn't be happier with all the work he has done for us. We are lifelong customers.

After the guests leave and the twinkly lights come down, your wedding photos are the biggest way you'll remember your day. My goal is to create an album that transports you back to your wedding every time you look at the photos. forget about posing and feeling stiff in front of the camera. Imagine going on a walk with an old friend, who just happens to have a camera with them. My process is free and flowy, and my only goal is to capture your true self.

I will be booking her for any photos opportunities I have going forward! She took my engagement and wedding photos this past year and I have loved them all! I have gotten so many compliments on all the photos and how they turned out! My wedding day was so grey and raining but looking at my photos you'd never know! She was so personable and friendly and easy to work with. I can't rave enough!

Hi, I'm Morgan! I'm so glad you are here! With a camera in my hand, I'm constantly looking to chase dreamy + golden light, capture the "in-between" moments (not just the posed), create a space where you feel comfortable and empowered in front of my lens, and ultimately build meaningful & lasting relationships with each and every one of you.

Morgan is the absolute best. She photographed our wedding recently and the entire experience was an absolute dream. Our engagement shoot was fun and upbeat and she helped us come out of our shell. On our wedding day, Morgan made sure we were happy and comfortable all day long. She was there for US. She not only photographed our wedding in the most beautiful way, but she fixed my veil, helped with my dress, kept us on time, and talked to my other vendors for me. Morgan is professional, artistic, kind, funny, and encouraging. I will recommend Morgan and her team over and over again. Thank you for EVERYTHING, Morgan. You are amazing inside and out!

With Cassidy not only will you have high quality, beautiful photos, you will also have a fun, refreshing, and enjoyable experience!

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!

Katy is AMAZING! Our photos turned incredible and were everything we dreamed of. Not only that, Katy was such a wonderful part of our day. We had a very small wedding and every person that interacted with her or saw her working was obsessed with her. All I heard the following day was how great she was and how fun she made the day. I wish I could get married again to have her so my pictures again!

I don't even know where to begin to describe how thankful we are to have had Danielle as our wedding photographer. We knew after getting our engagement gallery back that we picked the perfect photographer. Not only was our engagement shoot a blast frolicking around the streets of Chicago, but when we received our wedding gallery, we were in truly awe. It can be difficult to find a photographer who is cognizant of their editing style for people of color, but Danielle's photographs seriously blew us away. She delivered a mix of traditional wedding photos in addition to creative, candid moments. As a type A bride who planned it all herself, Danielle was right there with me with her exceptional organization and years of expertise. Through my countless emails over our planning process, she took all my requests, thoughts, notes and helped me plan my perfect timeline for the entire day (and was incredibly patient with me when it needed to change multiple times). Day of, she showed up way ahead of schedule and I know she stayed late (even though I lost track of time dancing the night away). At one of our shoot locations outside of Union Station, there was an immense amount of unexpected construction which I thought was going to ruin our photos. She immediately situated us and executed perfectly angled shots to hide all the construction. She's the kindest human who truly makes you feel at ease while also really knowing how to wrangle a wedding party. She takes charge but keeps it fun and stress free. Our friends and family adored her, and our guests couldn't get over the stunning pictures. Our biggest problem now is narrowing down which photos to hang up in our home haha we love too many of them! We can't thank her enough for the memories that we will hold dearly forever. We were honored to have Danielle be such a big part of our wedding day! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Danielle!!

We hired Brittany for our wedding and she was phenomenal! Planning with her beforehand gave me so much peace of mind and her ability to make you feel comfortable getting your photo taken and given quick direction was excellent (even with my camera shy husband)! She is so kind and was able to chat with some of our friends and family, who have all been raving about how great her and her sister/helper were. We are already obsessed with our sneak peak photos and I know when we get our gallery it is going to be impossible to decide what pictures are going on the wall. We will absolutely be hiring Brittany for any future photos we want to get and can't wait to work with her again for some family/fur baby photos!

Nelena and Dom took photos at my rustic/modern wedding at cider mill in Princeton, Illinois. Once the four of us met, my husband and I loved how easy it was to speak to Nelena and Dom and how they immediately understood where we were coming from. As introverts we wanted a photographer with a larger-than-life personality, someone who would find candid moments on our day and Andreoni Photography really brought the fun. I can’t stress enough how truly wonderful our experience was. The two of them worked so well together. They brought so much excitement and fun when capturing photos of our wedding party. Nelena and Dom were always so responsive to my many questions and concerns I had. I could expect a response from either of them within 24 hours and usually much quicker than that. The first time my now-husband and I saw the photos, we melted! We had a date night and snuggled up on the couch, and loaded the photos onto our big screen. It truly felt like we were back on our special day. We loved the unique poses and fun and intimate moments Andreoni photography captured. I had no idea our small town wedding could look so incredibly beautiful. The finished photos ooze class, sophistication and refinement.

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…. BUT THEY MADE! IT! WORK! I wouldn’t have had it any other way and I 10000% recommend these ladies to everyone I know. couldn’t be happier!

Hey future newlyweds! I'm Jarrod, a wedding photographer that specializes in story telling. Tired of all the bright, overposed, cookie cutter sh*t you keep seeing? Let's create wedding images with real emotion, story, and intention to them. I know being in front of the camera can be awkward. That's why I choose not to pose couples, but instead prompt you to do something like "take off your shoes and run across the field" or " get inside the car and kiss everywhere except the lips". These prompts will help you feel comfortable and also help create candid images. Check out my website for more info :)

Awarded Best of Zola
Jarrod and his wife, Taylor, are truly a dream to work with! My husband and I really wanted some simple engagement photos taken, but were reluctant because we’re not totally comfortable in front of the camera and didn’t want the poses/photos to look cheesy. Taylor gave us plenty of suggestions to pose us naturally and kept us laughing which put us at ease immediately. Jarrod was such a professional and really worked every angle and background to make it look like we spent an entire day shooting. The editing was super crisp and clean and the photos came back incredibly quickly. They far exceeded our expectations and we can’t thank them enough for giving us beautiful, lasting memories from such an important time in our lives. This couple is seriously amazing - genuine, fun, and experts at what they do!! Book them!

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.

As a videographer, I value communication and collaboration above all else when working with a photographer. Rayan has that in spades. Plus, her work is absolutely stunning. She is truly a unicorn in a field of wild horses.

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.

Each and every experience and photo shoot and email and text and phone call with them has been perfectly professional, fun, and reasonable. The prices are great, the people are great- and the photos are freakin perfect. Unique and fun and different- but also traditional for those seeking that. Jay and Larrisa are an amazing couple and they take seriously great photos. We will be using them for the next niece who is soon to arrive, and for engagement and wedding photos in the upcoming years. PLEASE give them a call today- they are the best!!!!!

Working with Kayla was a dream! She was so helpful, kind, and took AMAZING photos! We met via Zoom and coordinated everything else via email, and upon arriving at the wedding, she helped fix my hair, and did wonderfully at helping to corral family members for photos. She was even kind enough to surprise us by mailing delicious cookies with our names and anniversary dates piped on them along with our USB of photos, it was a delightful surprise! We loved working with Kayla and definitely recommend her to everyone!!

Despite being behind the camera for nearly a decade, I am still always doing exciting new things with my couples. I don’t want to give you an average experience. I want to give you a unique and exciting experience with photos that you can brag about and tell your friends that no one else has photos like you!

We have worked with Benjamin at Promani Media several times and always recommend his company when we aren't available!

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!

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!

I’m Sarah, the lady behind Sarah Schade Photography. I am a Michigan based wedding and portrait photographer based in Traverse City, but I love to explore and photograph all over the world. When I’m not behind the camera, I am probably petting all dogs or cooking up some yummy vegan food! In a few bullets I am: • a wedding and portrait photographer for the adventurous and in love •an animal lover • your story-teller So if you are ready to hike up the sand dunes, run through a field, or jump in Lake Michigan, let’s chat, and start planning your portrait adventure.

Sarah was and is amazing at what she does and knows how to follow and execute her intuitive artistic instincts. I absolutely loved the style of her photography and couldn't have been happier with the photos we received. She's easy to work with and she hustled real hard the entire day to make sure she captured every important moment which, to me, demonstrated how much she cares. I can't recommend her enough - it was a great experience working with her!
