Ashley did such a phenomenal job capturing our wedding day. When we received our photos, we were so amazed! She is so talented with capturing a mix of posed and candid shots. Her photos are crisp, bright, and timeless. Working with Ashley was very easy. We had several Zoom calls and she was very communicative about how the day would flow. On our wedding day she was so sweet and kind. She truly helped the whole day run smoothly. I cannot recommend working with Ashley highly enough.

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves Waterford, MI

We take photos as a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone.... someone has said, and they couldn't have been more right. Photography is my passion, and I love everything about it. From finding the ideal place to take photos and enjoying a cup of coffee going over a photoshoot. My name is Denisa Rama, and I stumbled into photography my freshman year in high school, and every day I do my best to become better.

Awarded Best of Zola
Denisa is fantastic to work with. She was the photographer for my sisters wedding and I was so impressed with how easy she is to work with and the gorgeous photos. We have now been using Denisa for our family photos every year for the past 3 years. She does a great job working with our kids and getting them to smile and I’m always impressed with how well she captures us. I would definitely recommend for your next photo needs.

  • Serves Waterford, MI

I'm a photographer + creative who has a passion for people! Naturally, as an enneagram 2, I desire to not just be your vendor, but a friend who gets to celebrate one of the most important days of your life! In my free time, my husband and I love to travel around Michigan, play board games, and drink good coffee! I've been a gluten-free girlie for majority of my life, and I think I have nailed baking some pretty dang good cinnamon rolls.

From our first interaction, Oleta Photography demonstrated an above and beyond level of communication, professionalism, and commitment to understanding our vision for our wedding day. She did an amazing job setting expectations, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of, she was flexible and helpful, guiding us through the timeline to ensure everything went smoothly. Oleta Photography's keen eye for detail and ability to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera resulted in stunning, artistic photos that captured all the special moments we'll treasure forever. We are thrilled with the quality of her work and the exceptional value she provided for our wedding day.

Sammy Mich Photo 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Waterford, MI

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.

Working with Sammy is an absolute dream. I am so grateful not only for her talent, but her kind heart. Sammy goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. Sharing funny stories, telling you how amazing you look, etc. and she quickly becomes your best friend in those moments. It’s an absolute pleasure being on the other side of her lens. Sammy captured my husband and I on three occasions so far. First we had an hour-long shoot at a very sentimental place for the two us, to serve as memories and wedding invitation/thank you photography and we quickly fell in love with her style and personality. Secondly Sammy came to our wedding welcome dinner for two hours to capture the space and the guests. She was a fly on the wall and did a phenomenal job capturing the evening and special moments of everyone gathering. Lastly, our wedding day - Sammy and her team went above and beyond. She did an hour of flat lays (which turned out incredible) and then 10 hours of coverage and kept the night moving along perfectly. She melded well with our other vendors and captured everything we could have hoped for, including chasing our car around for adorable get away shots. Her assistant even dropped everything to help us fix a minor emergency with our seating chart. Sammy and her team will exceed all of your expectations should you choose to work with her!

I'm a wedding photographer and portrait photographer that specializes in capturing your candid moments, genuine smiles and timeless memories. When deciding on a wedding photographer it’s SUPER important that you not only love my work, but that you also like me. We will spend 8-10 hours together. I’m going to capture your day how it unfolds while also giving direction and keeping the day moving smoothly. I’ll be your honorary bridesmaid, biggest hype girl, dress fluffer, and most importantly your storyteller. I really can’t wait to capture your day.

With other photographers I find it awkward to understand how they want me to pose, but Keri made everything feel fun and natural. I love our engagement photos and can't wait for her to our wedding and hopefully our future family pictures as well!

Green Holly Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Waterford, MI

I'm a Narrative Wedding Photographer. That means my goal is to create images that tell the story of your day exactly how it happened. Your photos shouldn't be an assembly lined output of a generic wedding day. They shouldn't feel moody and serious when you were sharing a beautifully happy and joyous moment. When documenting your wedding day the end photos should feel how your day and the moment captured actually felt; that is my ultimate goal! You will be holding onto your wedding photographs for life and will become family heirlooms. I'd love to photograph your wedding and create these meaningful images for you, your family, and your guests!

We are so grateful that Holly was the photographer capturing such a special day for us! When we started the search for a wedding photographer, Holly was the only one already on our shortlist. I used to work for an organization that also hosted events, and one of the experienced coordinators mentioned in passing that Green Holly was one of their favorite photographers to work with. Even years later, it always stood out to me that a busy venue coordinator who had encountered so many vendors felt that Holly stood out. From the moment we met, she made us feel comfortable and confident that our wedding memories were in the best hands. Holly’s work really does speak for itself, and while it is easy to be impressed with her stunning portfolio, Holly behind the camera is even more incredible. She has a warm and calming presence that is invaluable on a day that can be beyond hectic. And her very straightforward approach made the entire experience as seamless and easy as possible. Like most couples, we met with a few photographers before booking. With each one, we communicated concerns that we weren’t the most comfortable in front of the camera or confident that we were super photogenic. Time and time again, we heard “oh, everyone says that and then looks like a model” which might be true but isn’t very reassuring. Holly took time to listen and understand what made us feel that way, which meant she knew how to pivot when needed to get us photos we truly loved. Her work is timeless, elegant, and full of life. The quality of the photos exceeded our expectations, and her ability to tell a story through her lens is remarkable – often capturing the tiny moments and emotions you simply can’t plan for. If you're looking for a photographer who is professional, personable, and an absolute master of her craft, we can’t recommend Green Holly enough. Thank you for giving us such incredible memories to look back on!

Photographs By Emily

  • Serves Waterford, MI

Hello, my name is Emily! I am a passionate full-time photographer with an affinity for coffee! Seriously, though, you will usually find me with a cup in hand! Anyway, enough about the most important food group in the world (coffee......). Let me tell you a little about myself. I am a firefighter wife, dog-mama and a photographer. I'm the sole owner and CEO of Photographs by Emily, LLC, which I started in 2009. Opening my own studio space in 2020! I feel so incredibly lucky that I get to do what I love every single day! Capturing life's most important memories with my camera is my passion in life. I like to keep things simple!

Emily is so great to work with! Emily did our engagement photos on Saturday (January 2019) (it was quite cold and pretty windy). She was great and helped us get all the shots we wanted. Emily was great with our dog and got a lot of shots with her as well. Many other photographers say they’re good with animals, but Emily proved it! She stayed happy and excited the whole time despite the cold. She let us be ourselves, and I love that our pictures don’t look posed and fake. They look like us! Emily photographed our wedding in July 2019. Unlike our engagement photos, it was quite warm on our wedding day. Emily was a champ once again! She came early and got getting ready shots. We did a first look, and I love how they turned out! Emily was great the whole time. She got every picture we asked her to take even though it was sweltering out.
