  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves River Rouge, MI

Ever since childhood, I’ve been captivated by the power of photos and the stories they tell. Growing up, I’d lose myself in family photo albums, fascinated with freezing moments in time led me to photography, a medium that became my canvas for expressing emotions and creativity. What fuels my passion for wedding photography? It’s the profound belief in the power of love stories. In a world where adult milestones are fewer, the journey of marrying your best friend and soulmate stands out as a core memory. I find immense joy in capturing the moments when love, support, and celebration intertwine, creating memories that last a lifetime.

Taylor was the best!! I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! She was funny, made us feel at ease and went out of her way to make sure we had everything important to us captured. Her attention to detail is amazing and her communication about edits is very appreciated.

Our experience with our wedding photographers for our Ford Field wedding was beyond incredible! The attention to detail and their professionalism were absolutely out of this world. We had the pleasure of working with Chelcie, the owner, for our engagement shoot, and her vision was stunning. For our wedding day, Jaclyn and Jeremy were our photographers, and they were nothing short of amazing. Their talent and creativity were mind-blowing. We didn’t have to worry about anything—Jaclyn and Jeremy picked the perfect spots for downtown photos, guided us on poses, and everything turned out better than we could have imagined. They were so friendly that we felt comfortable being ourselves, and they made us feel absolutely beautiful. If you're looking for amazing photos for your special day (and you absolutely should be!), please hire this team! Every time we look at our pictures, we’re brought to tears.

We understand that wedding planning can be overwhelming, which is why our in-house planning team is here to streamline the process. With clear communication and personalized support, we handle the details so you can focus on enjoying your special day with less stress.

Bonie Wedding was great to work with. From the start process, the communication was easy. Hannah was our lead photographer with Emily and Lactoya were our videographers, who were both great teams. I highly recommend using Bonie weddings for both photo and video, as the two teams worked together without any trouble. During the reception, we barely noticed their presence, yet every time we looked up they were there recording everything. It was so nice to know that your special day was captured from start to finish, without feeling overwhelming. We appreciated Hannah and Emily's directions for all the photos. The production team was great as well. Very responsive and easy to communicate. They make the entire process clear and concise, which is appreciated when the wedding planning process and day off can feel overwhelming. Our wedding was not even 2 weeks ago and we already received our video trailer, as well as some sneak peek pictures from Hannah via Dropbox. Hannah also did our engagement shoot and it was fun and easy. We loved how our pictures came out and are so eager to see the rest. Thank you Bonie!

Where do we even begin- We hired the Opal Affair for wedding Day of Coordination and it was by far the best choice (and money) for our wedding day- Kirsten and Katy made it the absolute best day of our lives!! In the year of planning whenever I had a timeline questions, Kirsten was so quick and helpful in responding and then in the month and week prior to wedding day, she stepped in and took over vendor comms and made sure all the little details that made the day unique and personalized were covered. We had Katy onsite with us and from rehearsal to day of, she helped keep things running smoothly, made sure the bar didn’t run dry and stepped in when health emergencies demanded action and took charge. We so appreciate the Opal Affair going above and beyond for us and our guests- They gave my husband & I such peace of mind that all the details were covered and we couldn’t have done it without you! Truly the most magical day and all thanks to The Opal Affair team!

I cannot begin to talk about how wonderful Christine is--as a professional, as an artist, but as an individual who deeply cares about her craft and the people she is creating memories for. Christine is spunky and makes even the stiffest models let loose; she makes being photographed comfortable and enjoyable. Her photos truly do speak for themselves. She does an amazing job capturing personalities, candids, but also the deeply emotional and sentimental moments and portraits every bride and groom want to have from their wedding day. Through our engagement session and wedding day, you can truly see our love for each other and personalities shine through in her images. This is truly because of the thoughtfulness, passion, and love Christine has for her profession and the couples she photographs. I cannot emphasize enough that you need Visual Folklore for your wedding or other significant life event!

Choosing to have Shuhrat capture our special day was one of the best decisions we made! She is the kindest person and puts your mind at ease. She is a joy to work with. She was able to honor all of our requests and kept us on track all day. We wanted a lot of candid shots and she delivered (see photo) She was organized and friendly the entire time, even during the more chaotic moments. I even texted her a few weeks before just to talk about wedding stress and she helped me a ton. We did not have to worry about giving her direction the entire evening, she just knew what to do and what to capture. We are so excited to see how the shots come out. Already the sneak peeks look phenomenal! We wouldn't trust anyone else to capture these memories we want to look back on for the rest of our lives!

Working with J. Roman was a dream! We won an engagement shoot with J and quickly knew we wanted him as our wedding photographer after an engagement shoot that was so fun! He delivered hundreds of photos that we loved. His range is amazing; from moody and dark, to vintage and chic, to glam and bright, all the versions of photography you crave for your big day, J covers! We were open to J's eye when it came to moments and he worked seamlessly on our big day--him or his team never felt intrusive to a special moment. The raw emotion of the wedding day was captured so beautifully-we get to relive such a momentous day over and over through his art. He was incredibly professional, was very easy to work with and was so helpful in planning. J has delivered amazing results: 2500 photos for our wedding, which we received in exactly 3 weeks. We received the first short video within 4 weeks of the wedding as well for his photography and videography package. So grateful that we booked with J Roman and would recommend his over and over again!

We used Bunny as our florist and wedding coordinator - it couldn't have gone better! Our interaction first with Bunny began with a lovely and in depth meeting about our hopes for flowers at our wedding. After walking through some questions, we ended our meeting and then Bunny sent a Flower Preview entailing all we had discussed with other options as well. This preview was set up like a power point with photos from the bride's bouquet to the flowers for the arch, boutonnières, and more! After finalizing every detail and being in constant communication, she sent over a Google Doc in order to fill out information about our wedding, vendors, rehearsals, etc. When the day of my wedding came, all I had to do was set out any decor I wanted to use and as my bridal party, mom, and I all got ready with snacks and drinks she provided, Bunny was furiously decorating the ceremony and reception space. By the time we were done getting ready, the space was complete and BEAUTIFUL! The day could not have gone smoother - as a bride, I was actually relaxed! As the ceremony continued, Bunny worked with my DJ, photographer, and videographer to make sure everything was as it should be. When my food arrived, the caterers had not brought the chicken (one of two main courses). Bunny took care of it by calling the vendor, letting me know it's getting taken care of, and even made an announcement to guests that the chicken was late. Even when something wrong, Bunny made everything feel right. I am incredibly thankful for her help, calm demeanor, and advice she offered along the way. You couldn't choose a better florist or coordinator for your wedding or event! 100 out of 5 stars 3

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. ​

Since the beginning, Nicole has demonstrated her expert knowledge and supreme professionalism. She always delivers, is punctual, and has constantly exceeded my expectations. Her attention to detail and respect of the craft produces beautiful imagery that is has a candid quality, but also has a certain modern dreamy aesthetic that I love. She is also so excellent at direction. You may think you'll feel awkward in front of a camera, but she provides you a worksheet to help understand your preferences and comforts and work around those. But even then, in the moment you just feel so happy and trusting with her that you will learn to be more at ease and trust in the process. She will guide you to the perfect poses, and even fix your hair, your veil and layers of tulle. (Seriously, thank you so much). Nicole also offers excellent recommendations on vendors, timelines, and provides numerous check ins and worksheets to keep you on track. Everything is carefully planned out and I love that. It helped me immensely to know where I'm at, where I should be, and what's to come. I also was super impressed with her second shooter Taylor. Both of them together captured the most lovely images, and I can't wait to get them printed. Another thing that I appreciated, was her blogs on her website, that dive into detail about her process and even the fact that she has numerous back up methods – which is something you don't think about unless you're in the digital industry. It's a huge sense of relief knowing Nicole has everything squared away so you can simply focus on your big day. I could go on, but I'll stop here and remind you that Nicole is the best in the business and worth the investment and more.

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.

Hi, I'm Mandy! I'm happiest at home with a cup of coffee (heavy on the cream & sugar), watching some HGTV (Fixer Upper anyone?!) & flipping through Instagram, with my beagle, Jack, snuggled on my feet. I love exploring new places with my sweetheart, Shawn, trying new foods, craft beer, coffee dates, Michigan autumns, and, of course, PHOTOGRAPHY! Thank you so much for stopping by my page. I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you all, and I appreciate each and every one of you!

Portraits By Mandy was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. From our first conversation, Mandy was detailed, wonderful, and attentive, answering all of our questions and making us feel at ease. On the day of the wedding, she captured every moment beautifully, creating timeless, classic photos that we will cherish forever. Mandy truly made our day feel extra special, and I cannot stop looking at the incredible photos she took - they are displayed all over our house. We plan to use Mandy for every special occasion in the future, as her work is simply stunning.

Our approach is as unique as your love story. With a blend of editorial flair, photojournalistic authenticity, and fine art finesse, we capture the essence of your wedding day vision. We don't just capture moments, we craft narratives.

Jennifer was an amazing photographer. She met all of my wants and was with me throughout the whole process of what I wanted. I can’t stress how much you would want her as your photographer. The one thing that caught my eye was her editing skills and the pictures she was able to capture. She will not only be a photographer for our wedding but any other special events that we will have in our new marriage. She is absolutely amazing and I was so happy to have her on our special day.

I'm Laura, aka the spicy hufflepuff redhead behind the camera! I want to give you permission to be yourself, to have fun, and to enjoy your wedding day stress free and focused on the person you’re marrying. If you want someone to just show up to your wedding and take some nice pictures, I’m probably not the photographer for you. But if you want someone to guide you, be your friend, AND give you images filled with all the emotions from your wedding, I’m your girl, and I can't wait to meet you.

As a venue manager and coordinator, Laura went above and beyond communicating prior to the wedding she had at our venue. Our venue is unique and family owned and operated. We have lots of spaces and places to create photographic magic and she did not disappoint. Her professionalism and ability to help the couple feel at ease was wonderful to work with and the photos at the end were amazing. We love having her and she is a preferred vendor for us. If you are looking for a quality photographer with an even better attention to detail and CARES about you as a client…look no further :)

Hello, I’m Rich! With 8 years of experience, my focus is on bringing out the best in my couples. Before capturing weddings, I was a palliative care nurse for several years. In both my career as a nurse and now as a photographer, I have experienced the biggest moments of people’s lives, and it’s an honor to be there for them.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were looking for fun, romantic, light & bright photos that are also timeless and true to color, and man did Rich deliver. Communication was amazing- he doesn't take long to respond and is easy to get ahold of. He was so easy to work with from handling a little last minute chaos with engagement photo locations to us replanning our entire wedding within three months. He made sure our engagement and wedding photos went without a hitch. Not only was Rich fun to work with, but he was a fantastic resource and we enjoyed the levity and expertise he brought to every step of the process. Our photos are STUNNING. I will recommend Gold & Elm to anybody who will listen!

We can’t thank Micah enough for guiding us through this wedding process! We booked her for the day of package, since I (bride) had a work history that overlapped with event decor. I can’t recommend booking her enough, even if you think you’ve “already got this”— she has a ton of insight and protected us from getting too stressed over anything. She went above and beyond her stated duties and we felt so fortunate. She held our hands when we needed it, but also gave us the flexibility and room to make our own creative decisions. That being said- her design instincts are broad for any theme, and absolutely gorgeous. Her team is fabulous too- very professional, detail oriented. Everything went off without a hitch, and we are so glad to be able to look back at that moment in our lives with a feeling of joy and connectedness, not stress and burnout.

Planning my own wedding opened my eyes to what my strengths are; detailed, organized, multi-tasker, but wanting to find the fun. Coming from a high demand business of new construction and real estate, I have the confidence and background of customer service and facing potential high stress situations. Female-owned and lead.

I was about 4 months out from my wedding date when I came to terms that I needed help - as any bride who thought they could do it all on their own lol. I was struggling finding my last two vendors - draping & aisle runner. I knew on the day of the wedding I simply just could not be everywhere at once and needed extra hands. Luckily I came across Monica on Zola and thank God I did. I mainly reached out to her to assist with the rehearsal and day of coordinating but she went above and beyond that. In addition to helping secure my last two vendors, Monica made sure I stayed on top of everything and gave suggestions on things I didn’t even think of in regard to smaller details and flow of events. She was readily available if ever I needed her opinion or guidance on anything…. Or if I needed to just vent and rant lol. I literally did not have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding because of Monica and her assistant. They executed everything to a tee. Monica is dependable, empathetic, efficient and a joy to work with. If we ever do another large scale celebration, we will be sure to reach out to Monica again. Highly recommend!

We found Beth Joy Photography before we actually even picked a venue and wedding date because I knew I wanted her and her husband to take our wedding/engagement photos! So much so that we made sure our wedding venue/date coordinated with their calendar before booking it. I cannot express to you how incredibly lucky we feel to have had our pictures taken by them. Of course the way they softly edit photos while bringing the color and brightness to life won us over initially, but the communication, timely turn around, the way they made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, their helpfulness, dependency, organization, and genuine kindness, are just some of the many other reasons we would recommend them to everyone! You truly won't be disappointed and I am sure you will love your pictures and experience with them just as much as we did!

Love Plus One Wedding DJs, Musician was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. They brought a lighthearted and optimistic energy that kept the mood upbeat. Their communication was consistently humorous yet professional, and they were very respectful of our vision. They were helpful in guiding song choices and flexible when we asked for changes. The DJ followed our script for most of the event, which our guests enjoyed, though he did go off script at the start and end with slower songs than we preferred. Overall, Love Plus One brought the fun, kept us on schedule, and was responsive to feedback. Their services and flexibility were well worth the value. We would recommend them for their ability to read the room and keep the celebration flowing.

I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I'm also a musician and I help craft most of the music in the wedding films I create. I love working with couples that have unique personalities and styles. My work resonates the most with who it's made for, and I always keep that audience in mind.

I can't express how grateful we are for our incredible wedding videographer, Steven! He was not only incredibly talented but also the sweetest person to work with. His professionalism and attention to detail were evident in every shot he took.  He beautifully captured all the special moments of our day, and finding someone who could provide high-quality video, drone footage, and 8mm film was a dream come true. When I finally stumbled upon this gem from Virginia, I knew I had found my guy! And I felt compelled to write this review even before receiving our final video because of how much we enjoyed working with Steven and his colleague! I was so comfortable with them and felt like their friend by the end of it all. If the teaser video is any indication (which we received the following day OMG!), the final video will far exceed all our expectations! We will cherish these memories forever, thanks to their amazing work! EASILY, HAPPILY, AND HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! 12/10! 5 STARS ALL AROUND! If you would like a videographer who has a great product, is easy to work with, is a good human, and makes your wedding day better by being awesome, do yourself a favor and hire Steven! You will not regret it…we sure as heck don’t! Steven, thank you so much! What a positive experience you gave us! You’re the best and we are so grateful! We’re so excited for our final edit! -Laura
