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!

Featured on Today show and Wedding Day Magazine. I believe everyone deserves to have life's biggest moments captured on camera. But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. 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 such an incredible photographer and person to work with for our wedding!! We are not too comfortable in front of the camera and she did such a fantastic job helping us and coaching us so our pictures were the best they could be. The day of the wedding she went above and beyond to make sure it was special and memorable and I cannot rave about her enough. We love Mary!!!

My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

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!

Angel and I could not have been more happy to have Abigail and Bailey as our photographers. We are not the type of people to take pictures but Abigail made us feel comfortable and natural when taking our engagement photos and wedding photos. On our wedding day they were right by our side, and it felt as if they were another one of our friends celebrating our love with us, capturing all the moments that we will look back on for the rest of our lives! If you need any photos ever, go to Abigail. I know that we found our photographer that we hope will last us a lifetime!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Taylor was thoughtful, communicative, supportive, and produced absolutely beautiful photos for our wedding. Working with her feels like working with a best friend. She is extremely easy to talk to, very accessible (we've texted a lot lol), and works with you to make your special day what YOU want it to be. She captured all the little details, the scenery, and the overall feel of our wedding just the way we wanted. We told her we wanted our photos to feel totally unique and cinematic, and she really delivered. Also, when my dress malfunctioned before I was supposed to walk down the aisle, she was right there being supportive and helpful, going above and beyond her photographer duties. Having someone who can go with the flow and make things happen for you on what can be a chaotic day really made a difference. She's awesome.

If you’re searching for a photographer you’ve found the one!!! I spent endless hours on Facebook reading comments, bride groups, recommendations, etc and eventually found Shuhrat! Other places to us seemed that it was just another shoot for them and a weekend project, with Shuhrat she genuinely cared about our day and photos. She made it so easy to work with and cared about every pose and every photo we took throughout the day. She was helping us every step of the way, scouting out locations, moving us around for poses, where to look, and so much more. She kept us laughing the whole time and was so flexible to make whatever worked for us. We’ve had poor experiences with photographers before this and we never doubted any photo with Shuhrat, she made it so easy to trust her and she consistently showed us photos in between to ensure we were happy with our results. Our family absolutely LOVES her and are also obsessed with how our photos turned out. We now are using her for Christmas card photos the past 3 years :) thank you Shuhrat for saving our wedding photos, caring so much about our big day, and the amazing photos!

Hi there, my name is Bethany, a photographer from mid-Michigan. Weddings are my favorite but I also love photographing babies, couples and families. My passion is to capture your day and milestones in an artistic, creative way. I strive to make every moment peaceful, fun and memorable. When I am not behind the camera, you will find me working my other (main) job, cooking, or hanging with my husband. I love coffee (iced Americano w/ a ‘lil bit of cream is the way to my heart), flowers, aesthetic color palettes, travel, 70s & 90s music, disco balls, T. Swift jams and tacos.

Bethany was so easy to work with and communicate with leading up to the big day. She came prepared, was our biggest hype person, and was just so easy to be around. I highly recommend her!

Dj and Ashley captured our wedding and all the special moments way beyond my hopes and dreams. Not only did they make us feel comfortable, but they made our guests feel comfortable in front of the camera as well. We had a long distance wedding, on the other side of Michigan and Dj and Ashley were there for every moment. They listened to us and our visions for the pictures and gave us the wedding pictures of our dreams. We had our edited sneak peaks that same night and the rest of the pictures less than a week later. We are so beyond lucky to have had them photograph our wedding and so would you if you hired them.

I grew up in a small, rural town in Southern Michigan where I married my high school sweetheart. I first dabbled in photography in high school but perfected my craft while living on a Marine base in California where my husband was stationed. It was here that I was able to capture special moments for friends who became family and those wanting memories to last forever. I have since moved back to my hometown, where I raise my two beautiful daughters with my husband. Quickly, I learned that weddings are my passion in photography and I want to continue to help others capture the best day of their life! I simply love love!

I have had so many wonderful comments about our pictures. They turned out perfect and absolutely captured our full day from start to finish! Chelsea was very accommodating and easy to work with.

I’m Breanne, a Michigan-based classic wedding photographer and creative with a big heart. Coffee is my love language. Super passionate about black and white photos, sunshine, real love stories, travel, pearls, and my husband & goldendoodle Brinkley. Detroit | Northern Michigan | Florida

Awarded Best of Zola
Best. Decision. Ever. We booked Breanne maybe two weeks after we got engaged, after pricing out a few other options. She is extremely organized and professional, provided us all the documentation we needed to review, and promptly set up an initial meeting. Once we booked her for the wedding, we scheduled engagement photos. Breanne traveled significant distances for both our engagement session and our actual wedding. Her pricing is competitive with other Detroit photographers but I really don't think her work product is competitive because she is leaps and bounds above other photographers. Take a look through her galleries and you can see why she is so highly rated - you can literally see individuals' personalities through her photos. That's what drew us to her initially, and she did not disappoint. I will say the engagement session is necessary practice, so that Breanne can get to know you and you get to know her. I don't think our wedding photos would have turned out as outstanding as they did without that practice. Prior to the wedding, Breanne was very responsive to communication and she goes above and beyond to help you with any part of your wedding - she just truly loves love. Her timeline was the backbone of my wedding and I tailored all the other vendors and reception events around her schedule. Working with Breanne was the least stressful and most enjoyable part of wedding planning. She is exceptionally professional and prepared, and yet she communicates with personalized attention that makes you feel like she's your friend helping you plan your wedding. It is the perfect mix of professional competence and genuine interest. At the actual wedding, Breanne was a rockstar. She gives you everything you need in advance to prepare, like checklists and timelines. Once there, she is a calming presence. My makeup people were running an hour behind so instead of plenty of time to get dressed and do bridal portraits, we had about ten minutes. Breanne jumped right in to assist with my MOH and I've never seen buttons get done so quickly. And she still managed to take breathtaking bridal photos in about 3 minutes. She was also flexible when she saw we weren't going to stick to the timeline, she improvised and took venue photos while she waited for me. After the wedding, she was quick and efficient with the family and bridal party photos and kept the focus on the bride and groom, which I really appreciated. She manages all expectations when it comes to gallery delivery as well. AND THE PHOTOS ARE UNBELIEVABLE. I cannot stress this enough. She provides photos that are true and authentic to who you are, and how you feel the day you get married. She is not a bystander to your wedding, just doing her job until it's on to the next wedding. She truly participates, learns the names of your bridal party, remembers the little details or special requests that are important to you, and always gets your good side. Like most couples, my groom doesn't usually like how he looks in photos. But our wedding photos were the perfect depiction of "us". Every time I go through them (which is very often) I keep thinking to myself, "yes, this is us, this is exactly how I remember that moment". A lot of wedding websites tell you not to skimp on the photos and it's true because after those 24 hours fly by, you will only have these photos to remember them. And you will not be disappointed if you chose Breanne Rochelle Photography to capture your day.

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.

We highly recommend AA Studios! They were our wedding videographers and we are so thankful we found them! They were easy to work with. Their communication from the very beginning was fantastic and it never faltered. They sent us a questionnaire to fill out that ended up being incredibly helpful with some wedding planning details we hadn’t even thought of yet. The day of they were on time and ready to go! They immediately got started with videoing details as we got ready. They were kind and accommodating all day. After, they continued their great communication and updated us often on where they were with the editing process. They provided multiple videos within the contracted time frame. Now…on to the quality of the finished products. AMAZING! We received a teaser video of a few seconds and it made us so excited for what was to come! After that was our highlight video. Watching that had us smiling from ear to ear as we remembered our day and saw things we didn’t see the day of. It was absolutely beautifully edited. We shared it with our friends and family on Facebook and everyone loved it as well. We also received our full ceremony, which I have watched probably 100 times since then. They captured every word, every emotion. Another video was our reception video. It included our entrance, cake cutting, speeches and dances. We love rewatching that and hearing the words spoken and laughing at our not so perfect dancing. Finally, we received an extended highlight video with some messages from family at the end. We loved it and having those moments captured! We are forever thankful that we found Alex and Anastasiia, we consider them friends now! We will always have these beautiful videos as a memory of how perfect our day was and how obvious our love for each other is. They even surprised us with a bonus gift when they sent our usb of the videos. Thank you a million times over! Now do yourself a favor and book them! You won’t regret it!!

I'm a love storyteller from Grand Rapids, Michigan. I primarily photograph weddings and engagements in and around the Midwest as well as destination weddings. I aim to tell love stories as honestly, candidly and uniquely as possible and I hope those attributes come across in my imagery. I firmly believe Love is Love and that everyone deserves beautiful images. I promise I will go above and beyond for you and be genuinely invested in your photographs far beyond just taking pictures. I've told hundreds of love stories and I hope to tell yours one day.

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!

She helped me with my veil, helped me get a stain out of my wedding dress, made everyone in my bridal party laugh and smile and was so fun to work with. She had creative ideas for photos and was committed to giving my husband and I the photos we desired. She’s amazing!

As a Media Company, 505 Media Co always tries to capture genuine emotions. When we capture a wedding. We have the unique opportunity to freeze that moment in time. This is a priceless treasure a couple can cherish for the rest of their lives.

I had my wedding in November 2023, and working with 505 was like a DREAM. I got a package that allowed me to work with a video and photo team, and I also had a day-of coordinator. Krystal was my coordinator, and she was incredible!! She was super friendly and bubbly, but also extremely professional. Working with her and her team was such a smooth process; they were quick communicators, I always got a response back quickly, and I never felt uncertain or worried with them. From the engagement session to the wedding itself to the delivery of the final product, I was extremely happy. The photographers and videographers were so much fun to work with, and I honestly can't speak highly enough about how happy my new husband and I are. We also referred 505 to my cousin that just got married. Love this team!!

When I was looking for a wedding photographer, Sydney stood out against the rest of them. She is so quick to email you back, is friendly and knowledgeable about all aspects of weddings. When it came to our engagement session she gave us ideas for locations and just made the whole experience so fun and easy. My husband hates his photos being taken and he enjoyed our engagement session and loved talking to Sydney's husband who was with her. When it came to our wedding day, Sydney has this awesome questionnaire that answers everything! There were questions on there I never even thought about!! She showed up early and found places for portraits and checked in on me. She's just the sweetest and made our day so special, even through the stressful parts. She was a blast at our reception dancing with everyone on the dance floor while taking photos, like I said she made the day even better. We were sitting in our hotel room the night of our wedding and I got a Facebook notification from Sydney Marie Photography, Sydney had posted 10 photos from our wedding, I couldn't believe it and it made me so happy. I can't thank Sydney enough for everything, if you're looking for a photographer do not hesitate and hire her.

He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was the best! My husband and I would not have wanted anyone else to capture our special day. He did our engagement and wedding photos and our photos came out incredible! Jason is professional, friendly, and his outgoing personality makes the shoot so comfortable and enjoyable. During our wedding, he also went above and beyond by making sure to take care of us. He knows the ups and downs of a wedding, so he would make sure we were okay by reminding us to stay hydrated and to eat, he would be so great communicating the schedule for the day, and what to expect and what to do throughout the photoshoot. So grateful for his expertise and we totally recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

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!

We are a husband and wife team of photographers in the Metro-Detroit area. We have a passion for capturing beautiful moments, and love to help people create unforgettable memories. Even before we became professionals we would often be found with a camera in hand trying to capture something amazing.

Had the please of working with "J" for years while in the photo biz myself. She has the eye to capture the best possible images. She was trusted enough to photograph my own daughter's wedding here at Milkhouse Meadows. "B" brings both technical savvy and creativeness that will make your images stand out. Their vision, timing, and ability to set up a shot brings out the best possible images. The proof is in the pictures!

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
My favourite part of the Astrid Cordier Bridal Experience was how comfortable she made us feel. My husband is not a photo type of guy, and even he felt at ease when Astrid stepped behind the camera. Not only is the end result something out of a fairytale, but the jokes and giggles between shots come as a welcome distraction from the wedding nerves. You don't feel posed, it feels natural and you feel like you can show your own personality and your relationship. No forced smiles or kisses. I could not recommend Astrid enough!
