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.

Jeron was fantastic throughout our entire engagement and wedding process! He was super communicative, professional, and knowledgeable which was a huge stress relief throughout all the planning. He did our engagement photos too as part of our package, and was even able to find us a second photographer last minute for the wedding due to our time constraints. He is a 10/10 person to work with, and we are SO happy with our photos!

Genevieve Devries Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Southgate, 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.

I had no idea our small, low-key wedding could look so incredibly beautiful. The finished photos ooze sophistication, refinement as well as fun! Not bad for a simple courthouse wedding! If you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further. Genevieve did everything she could to empower and coach us into really just feeling like our best selves. At no point did we feel self-conscious. We will treasure these photos forever. Thank you, Genevieve DeVries Photography

Emily was outstanding!! She's so friendly and very talented. With the package my husband and I picked, we got to spend time with her during our engagement session and also had a one on one meeting to go over our wedding day schedule. We really got to know her and genuinely enjoyed spending our wedding day with her. Even guests committed on how fun yet professional she was. We 100% recommend!!!!

Hi there! My name is Stephanie. I have been doing Wedding Photography for 7 years now & I love meeting new couples and hearing their vision so I can bring it to life. I am Michigan based. I live for the unplanned moments that aren't staged or posed. I focus on raw connection over perfection. I want my images to tell a story and I want you to get all of the feelings when you look back on these images for years to come. If you are looking to have every little detail to big moments captured... I promise, I will be there documenting all of it.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't know where to start! Stephanie with Sunny Days Photography helped to make our day go so seamlessly! Due to COVID, we had to change our Wedding Day plans quite a bit and Stephanie helped us every step of the way to figure it out. She was super responsive and FaceTimed with me anytime I was stressing or had questions. After we had our final meeting a couple of weeks before my Wedding, I felt so good and so confident. Stephanie helped me figure out the perfect time for my Ceremony based on the best lighting and made sure I had time for all the photos I wanted. Come Wedding day, I could not have been happier. She arrived early to scope out my venue and the best spot for our First Look and Portraits (which were the most important to me). She remained so calm and collective, a true professional yet it feels like she was one of my best friends throughout my entire Wedding day. I was seriously so comfortable around her and you can tell by how the photos turned out! They are stunning!!! I would choose her over and over again if I could. Thank you Stephanie!

Chettara T. Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Southgate, MI

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

Awarded Best of Zola
We were married on 11.18 and Chettara shot our wedding. She was able to capture every moment with sheer perfection. As someone who hated having pictures taken, I was very nervous about being in front of the camera!!! She is able to work her magic ensuring that everyone feels comfortable in front of the camera. I cannot stress enough how amazing her work is! From the colors, lighting, her humor to make everyone comfortable, the time she invests in ensuring your vision comes to life, and her attention to detail are amazing! I promise you, you will not regret going to Chettara!

Hi there- I'm Shannon. I specialize in weddings because I love documenting others' joy and happiness. I believe love is love and everyone has a story worthy of being told. As an award-winning wedding photographer, I've photographed over 200 weddings and I've worked with some of the most prominent studios in Michigan.

On the day of the wedding, Shannon's creativity shone through as she seamlessly captured all the special moments, finding the most stunning and breathtaking backdrops for our photos without ever feeling intrusive. The final images are truly works of art that we will cherish forever. Shannon's ability to be present yet invisible during the ceremony resulted in the most beautiful and natural shots that perfectly encapsulate the joy and emotion of our big day.

Amber Marie Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Southgate, MI

I have always loved telling a story through photographs. Since high school I've been obsessed with taking pictures. That obsession carried on into my college ambitions and I ended up with a BFA in Photography from the College For Creative Studies. Since graduating in 2011 I started freelancing and soon wedding and portrait photography became my calling.

We’ve only seen the preview photos from our wedding and they are beautiful! Each shot perfectly captures the emotions of the day and we’re so grateful to have these memories preserved. Amber truly felt like a friend from the start, which made the entire experience so comfortable and easy for us -- a couple who has never been in front of a camera together. She blended in effortlessly with our guests and we received many compliments from family and friends about how great she was. During the family photos, she was helpful with making sure everything went smoothly while kindly managing the "list" when others tried to jump in for a photo. We can't wait to see the rest of our photos and look forward to having Amber capture our next "milestone" photos. Amber, thank you for being such an important part of our wedding day and for capturing our day so beautifully!

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.

I’m Erin - Aries, born and raised in Metro Detroit. I’m drawn to everything and anything colorful, love going to music festivals/concerts and traveling. I follow waaaaay too many meme accounts in Instagram and will watch a documentary about pretty much anything and anyone. And when I say documentary, sometimes that means reality shows ;)

Erin is a true artist. The pictures she took on our wedding day were STUNNING. We truly treasure every picture she took -- both the posed and the candid. All of the photos felt original to us...no "typical" or boring wedding shots. In addition to her artistic talent, Erin is also very professional. She was great in her communications with us leading up to the wedding. She was helpful in giving us ideas and things to consider. Erin was on time on the wedding day and a very calming presence. Without even raising her voice, she was able to wrangle all our family members for multiple portraits. Erin is an absolute delight to work with and I cannot say enough about her beautiful work!

As a local and destination wedding photographer, I specialize in a documentary style that captures your day as it unfolds—real, raw, and timeless. More than just a photographer, I’m your go-to girl for everything on this important day—whether it’s fixing a veil, calming nerves, or hyping up your dance moves. My priority is making you feel comfortable and at ease, so you can focus on what matters most: celebrating your love. By building genuine connections and keeping the experience fun and relaxed, I create heartfelt images that tell your story and preserve memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

Lindsay took the most beautiful engagement photos for me. From the consultation, to the shoot day, to delivery of pictures, she went above and beyond. Our session was mid-summer, and one of the hottest days of the year, but you couldn't tell that in the pictures! She made our session so personable and unique. I chose Lindsay because her photos capture so much more than just the people in it -- she captures a moment, a mood, an experience, a story... its not just a picture, its like a work of art! She will forever be my go-to photographer!

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!
