Hi I am Kate! I have a bachelor of fine arts in photography, and have been photographing weddings and elopements for around 5 years. There is nothing I love more that LOVE and all of the emotions that surround a wedding day. I am an LGBTQIA+ & BIPOC inclusive photographer, celebrating diversity is so important to me. I shoot both digital and film, and have a documentary fine art shooting style with a modern twist.

Kate is the best photographer! Not only is she incredibly talented, she is so fun to work with! She always made us feel so comfortable and made the experience fun. She is amazing! We have worked with Kate from engagement to baby! We will forever treasure her work.

Tylee Shay Photography

5.0

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,500

I’m Tylee- a Michigan wedding photographer with a passion for marriage. As your photographer, I'll capture images that are timeless, romantic, and honestly illustrate your love for one another so that you will always remember exactly why you fell in love. Whether you're eloping just the two of you, or getting married in your favorite place with all your favorite people, I will capture the photos that will help you to cherish your marriage for a lifetime.

Choosing Tylee for our photographer was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. It was the best investment, and something I’ll always thank myself for choosing to do. From the beginning to the end, she filled our wedding planning journey with support, encouragement, and intention. It truly was like having another wedding coordinator/bridesmaid. She learns her couples, individually and together, and tailors her talent to their specific “vibe”. Tylee met with us multiple times and ways throughout our engagement. We had video calls, phone calls, Pinterest boards, google forms and more. As an indecisive bride, I was so nervous about choosing locations, outfits, and photo prompts. Tylee quite literally held my hand through it all—style guides, location ideas, photography “styles”, even VENUE ideas. I was 3000% confident in her ability to capture our love beautifully and in the exact way I wanted, without me even knowing what I wanted. THATS how much effort and intention she puts in to know her couples on a personal level. She made our wedding day go so smoothly, between the separate wedding photography timeline we created, and her fun interactions with the family and wedding party. I didn’t have to think about what photos I wanted, because we had already planned it, and because tylee had already thought of it and done it before it came across my mind. We are so grateful and amazed by the turnaround time for our photo sessions and particularly our full wedding album. We’ve heard so many of our friends talk about waiting months to see their photos, so the short time we waited is truly astonishing. We still can’t get through our wedding album without crying, and I don’t think we ever will. Tylee caught so much emotion and detail in these photos, I’m tearing up even thinking about it! Tylee felt more like a friend than a photographer by the end of this journey, and part of me wishes our engagement was just a *bit* longer so we could enjoy Tylee a bit longer.

Avery Kate Photography, LLC

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.

Avery was amazing, easy to communicate with and helped our day run so smoothly. We've only received our sneak peaks so far and they are amazing! Looking forward to getting the rest of them back :)

Kaitlin Jude Photography

5.0

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.

My husband and I had the greatest experience working with Kaitlin, I cannot say enough good things about her! We both are not super comfortable being in front of the camera and she made the entire experience so comfortable for us and so fun! She brought the best vibes to our day and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer and wedding day hype girl! I am so lucky to have found her and we would love to work with her again!! I know booking with a vendor that you never met before can be stressful but Kaitlin made us feel so at ease and comfortable. Her portfolio really speaks for itself. She does amazing work and we LOVE how the pictures turned out as well! She just captured the day so perfectly! We highly recommend working with Kaitlin for your big day!

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!

Hey there!! I'm a candid & documentary style wedding photographer based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where I love to go on long board rides and watch the sunset (because Michigan has the BEST sunsets, am I right?). I'm a journalistic photographer focused on capturing authentic moments + emotion. I love finding those moments that tell a story - they say that a picture is worth a thousand words, right? I've been capturing weddings for three years now + still loving every second of it. If I sound like your kind of photographer, then kick off your shoes + let's do this thing!

We could not recommend Cassidy enough. Not only are her photos absolutely incredible, she genuinely cares about capturing moments you can have forever. Cassidy is professional and makes every session fun!!! We have no idea how to pose, what to do, and Cassidy always guides us to make sure our photos look natural and flattering. With Cassidy not only will you have high quality, beautiful photos, you will also have a fun, refreshing, and enjoyable experience!

I thrive on the human experience. I enjoy photographing stories in their organic form, curating a lifetime of memories for my clients. It's a given that I WILL cry at your wedding, celebrate your babies, become your Hype Woman for boudoir, and soak up every moment alongside you. In every sense of the word, I absolutely care about my clients. They become family. I am a lover of ridiculous internet memes, "I Love Lucy," my dogs, and my family. Enjoying life is essential to me. Travel, nature walks, and the smell of a campfire speak to my soul. Target is great, but you'll usually find me at Vertigo Records searching for vintage vinyl.

I always approach each with a fresh mind and remind myself that these photos are not for ME or to gather attention on social media, these are for my client and their family to cherish for generations. I aim to portray exactly how a moment felt through each image or series of images. I am continually inspired by the great photojournalists in history.

As a kid, I asked for a camera for every Christmas and birthday, and finally got a Canon Rebel T3i in 2010 - my Sophomore year of high school. That baby was my prized possession and I rarely left the house without it. I became the yearbook photographer and editor that year and began taking photography classes my Junior year. I ventured off to Central Michigan University in an attempt of becoming a photojournalist. Once I realized journalism wasn't for me, I dropped out and headed back to my hometown of Kalamazoo, which ended up with my finding my sidekick and husband, Micah!

We are traveling wedding photographer and videographer. For 2024, we have 70+ weddings booked in 21 different states. Our shooting style is photojournalistic, natural, CINEMATIC to traditional. Our editing and style depends. Very easygoing and flexible depending on the client's preference. Our team is dedicated in delivering memories.

My Husband and I got married April 14th, 2024 and didn't think we'd "need" a Videographer. This was the very last thing we added to our wedding planning.. yes, even after small things like arranging the seating chart, whether we wanted favors, etc. This by far was THE BEST DECISION WE MADE. We found Ledd Lens on Zola and inquired about their services about 2 months before the wedding. Usually, couples book videographers at least a year in advance. They asked what our budget was, what we were looking for and came back with 3 options to choose from. The prices were VERY AFFORDABLE and included their TRAVEL to Philadelphia. Having every moment on video to rewatch with our family or just alone is the best feeling after all the planning we did over 13 months. Randall was amazing! He had us choose 3 songs to use in our highlight video, but ended up using 1. The other 2, he chose, and they fit even better than the ones we thought would! He also threw in a few bonus footage as well. Absolutely amazing and professional company to work with. We are so happy!! Thank you Ledd Lens!

Hello! My name is Tonya. First and foremost, I am a mom to a beautiful little boy (who, let's face it, is completely tired of mom's camera!). I started behind a camera almost fifteen years ago when my grandpa first showed me how to use his. I live for the click of the shutter, capturing those moments that will be gone but never forgotten. Having been a previous cast member at Walt Disney World (and other theme parks), I found that I love the organized chaos that comes with photographing a wedding. Not to mention, who doesn't adore capturing the love between two people?

I am a storytelling and documentary elopement and wedding photographer based somewhat in Ludington, Michigan. I'm obsessed with nature, rocks, travel, and documenting everyday life. I love art & live music. I went to school for architecture and ended up obsessed with photography. I homeschool my kids and we spend most of our free time hopping from mountain bike parks to national parks to lakes between Michigan, Arkansas and Arizona and everywhere else we can.

Jessica does more than take great photos, she makes the whole experience great! I messaged her on a whim about elopement pictures, I had found her work on a blog post and fell in LOVE! She worked quickly to find a date that worked for us both. She was more than just a photographer, it felt like she was my wedding planner. She sent information on boutiques to find a dress, vendors, and hairstylists. She always kept in touch whether through messaging, phone calls, or meeting in person. When the elopement day was finally here, she made sure to meet up with me before getting ready. When I didn’t like my updo, she got her own styling tools to help me fix my hair. It felt like I had my best friend there, not a photographer. She knew all the right locations for photos and was extremely adaptable when things didn’t go as planned. She was very go with the flow, but always present, which I appreciated. The turn around time for my elopement album was very quick, maybe 3 weeks max. They were flawless and exceeded my expectations! I will be using her again!

Danielle was a phenomenal wedding photographer. From the start I had told her that my partner and I were very shy when it came to taking pictures. She made us feel so comfortable and made sure our height difference still looked great in all of the pictures. She goes above and beyond for her clients and treats you like a friend and not just a customer. She is very personable, funny, and makes sure everything goes how the couple wants it to go. She spends time making sure pictures turn out perfect and I am speechless with our wedding picture results!! I will be using her again for future family photos!! 10/10 would recommend to anyone!!

Our wedding was 10x better with the ease and professionalism of Andrew! We opted for digital and different kinds of film photography, which all came back stunning. He has a great eye and gave us exactly what we were looking for and asked. When I had questions, he was a great professional who gave me guidance. Can’t recommend him enough!

I’m Katy, a Michigan based wedding + event photographer. 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, if you're into any of that, we'll get along great!

Katy has been amazing and flexible from start to finish. She is a consummate professional and I had so much fun taking our photos. Our photos also came out amazing and I love looking back at our wedding. 10/10 highly recommend!

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.

She seamless grabbed shot after shot, getting right in the middle of the action, magically never drawing too much attention to her presence.

This is going to be a long BUT WORTHY review because we cannot say enough AMAZING things about Julie - she is the best photographer ever! Working with Julie was a highlight of our wedding day. She has a very calming presence ad knowing she was there taking my photos made me so happy. She took our wedding photos and an engagement photo shoot and is truly one of the kindest people I have ever met! She has excellent communication and responds to calls and texts almost instantly, which was so reassuring because I was running late getting to the venue and she was fine walking around and getting a lay of the land before I got there. From the initial phone call to hear about her services and ask questions, I knew without a doubt she would be our photographer. She explained her wedding packages, her experience with photography and it felt like I was having a conversation with a friend and throughout the wedding process ad the big day, I feel like we have become great friends. She personalized our photo experience to match our style and that is so apparent in all of the photos. She provided the wedding photos within 6 weeks of the wedding day and kept me in the loop on timing and sent amazing preview pictures. She has a very easy to use gallery in which a link is provided, and you can download all of the photos. I got so many compliments from guests that she was so friendly and took so many great photos. For someone who worries about everything, photos was something I did not have to worry about because she knows exactly what photos should be taken and took suggestions for poses we wanted (it was a wedding on a tennis court so we had a few specific poses we wanted). She got so many great photos of guests, family photos, candid photos during our vow exchange and other times and during the ceremony that every emotion we were feeling was captured on film. My husband hates photos, but Julie is such a calming presence that even my husband and some family members who don’t like photos really enjoyed taking photos. She can strike up a conversation with anyone and is a ball of positive energy, which is a must have on a wedding day! Everyone that talked to her was delighted to meet her and said she was the best photographer they have met, and I couldn’t agree more. I am still amazed at the photos we received. She made the colors of the flowers, my hair (redhead) and the colors of the bridal party dresses pop in a way I didn’t even know was possible. She truly captured every emotion of the day. I couldn’t be happier with the photos and cannot wait for Julie to take more photos in the future for our family!

You can usually find me out on our boat with my husband and three children exploring the Great Lakes. When I am not exploring Michigan, I am definitely traveling to explore other areas around the world. 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.

Rayan is one of the most creative wedding photographers working today. During the leadup, she'll work closely with you to understand the nuances of your day. And when the day arrives, she'll document your sentimental moments in a thoughtful, discreet manner. My background is in art and design, and every time I look at her images, I'm so incredibly impressed by her artistic vision. But perhaps even more importantly, the photographs remind me of how special the day was and how warm and accommodating Rayan was throughout the entire experience. I can't imagine it without her.

I believe love and light are two of the closest things we have to real magic. We're so fortunate that photography utilizes both. Art, storytelling, and connection have stood the test of time throughout human history. We were designed to create, entertain, and love. I approach each wedding day like it's the most important love story that will ever be told. Because to you, it is. I approach most of the day with a photojournalistic approach. Then during portraits I'm skilled at both posing you beautifully enough to be an editorial piece and prompting you in ways to bring out cinematic romance.

Lynzee is the absolute BEST of the best! We are a lesbian couple who did an elopement instead of a traditional wedding, and Lynzee absolutely NAILED it! She delivered engagement and elopement photos that absolutely shattered our expectations in the very best ways. She is supportive and has a wonderful artistic vision and is not afraid to incorporate whatever your vision was. She knew how to make both of us feel so beautiful while capturing our love and showing us what everyone else gets to see. The photos were gorgeous, but also still us. She managed to capture gorgeous, authentic moments, time and time again. She was professional, organized, SO fast at getting photos back to us, and gave us so many perfect shots that we can't stop looking at. She was the perfect elopement photographer; I cannot recommend her enough. Our wedding day was just the two of us with Lynzee, and she was the perfect companion for the day and was able to provide guidance whenever we wanted or needed it, but she also let us take the lead. Also, when posting our engagement photos, someone made a homophobic comment, and she immediately defended us to the commenter, deleted the comment, and posted a reminder of her support of the LGBTQ+ community. Lynzee is an absolute gem, and we will never take our photography business anywhere else again!

The easiest and most special part of my wedding!! I got married last August 2022 and planned it all by myself while being a medical student. Gubert Photos made the photography aspect of our wedding so easy and incredible - not to mention the actual photos, which were everything we wanted and more! Having this day captured was one of my biggest priorities and Gubert Photos did not fail me once. I was able to fill a whole scrapbook with all of our favorite moments from our wedding and thanks to the quality of the photos, we look at it all the time. I would recommend this company to anyone looking to capture any special party or event and I anticipate working with them again in the future!! Thanks again for being great!!

When it comes to choosing a wedding photographer there is so much more to think about than just the pretty photos you’re left with or the investment you spent to have them. I’ll be the one vendor you spend majority of your day with, so choosing someone you vibe with is super important.

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 love talking about the Enneagram and will do so for hours if you let me. I binge New girl repeatedly, I love to rock climb, and I look for any excuse to spend time with people. I value hard work and I'm always looking to perfect my craft. Striving to grow and make myself the best version of myself that I can be. Working with people is really special to me and I’m so fortunate to be in a position that allows me to do that.

Cammi was amazing to work with. Her communication was always quick and responsive, despite COVID rescheduling. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and the pictures turned out better than I could have imagined; she is a true artist. Cammi is so kind and loving, she was more than a photographer, she helped button up my wedding dress, when my mother's hands couldn't. We can't recommend Cammi enough! She captured all the perfect moments that we can hold onto.

I'm obsessed with the outdoors so a hike to an epic location is never out of the question with me. I love my Chacos, pine trees, and a dang good s'more. At home you'll find me cuddling with my two cats or dreaming about my next adventure.

Olivia saved the day for my fiancé and I!!!! When our photographer wouldn’t do our outdoor engagement shoot as originally planned and included in our wedding package, we needed to find someone who was able to last minute so we could get our Save the Dates out in time!! Olivia was up for the challenge and it was a blessing in disguise to have do our engagement shoot. She’s easy to talk to, provided great direction for my fiancé who hates cameras, made it fun, and I loved the quality of the photos! The lighting she was able to capture at sunset on the beach was literally the most beautiful I’ve ever seen! She made us laugh the entire time and we were given so many edited photos back! They were all so beautiful it was so hard to pick just one for our save the date! I wish she could be our wedding photographer but I had already put a deposit down for someone else :( YOU NEED TO BOOK HER!
