Brandon Drain is an award-winning filmmaker and photographer. He received his BA in Journalism with a focus in digital storytelling from Michigan State University. Brandon is an outside-the-box, innovative and unorthodox thinker, doer and Swiss army knife communicator. He believes in the power of stories — both fiction and non-fiction — and the impact they have on the human spirit.

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Brandon as our wedding photographer. He was absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. Brandon has an incredible eye for capturing the most special moments, and his attention to detail is unmatched. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, allowing our personalities and emotions to truly shine through in every photo. The quality of his work exceeded our expectations, and we are so grateful for the beautiful memories he created for us.

Allie Siarto & Co. Photography 

5.0

East Lansing, MI
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $2,900

I'm an editorial style wedding and portrait photographer based in East Lansing, Michigan. I photograph real people with real emotions—smiles, laughter and sentimental moments. I promise that you’re going to laugh in your photos rather than laughing at how awkward you were in your photos in years to come (unless your bangs look like mine did in junior high, in which case, I take back my promise).

Allie's photography and editing skills are second to none. She takes true to color photos, does not distort a gorgeous event with editing, and is so knowledgable about prompts to create the most natural looking photos. She doesn't do "posing" but encourages couples and clients to behave naturally and shoots them with the utmost professionalism and care. She is fun and easy to be around for an entire day and her communication is amazing. I would trust Allie with every professional photograph I need taken for the rest of time.

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.

Hi there! I'm so happy you are here, and I can't wait to learn more about you and your dream wedding! I'm a classic, authentic photographer who is ready to be your number one cheerleader on your wedding day. Getting to know my couples is a top priority of mine, so please message me if you want to grab a cup of coffee or set up a FaceTime chat!

When deciding what type of photography we wanted for our engagement and wedding, my husband and I were pretty clueless. All I said was that I wanted our pictures to just reflect our love and look like us. Enter Lauren, from Lauren Wood Photography, and all of the dreams we didn't know we had came true. Lauren is a true master at what she does, she makes you feel and look the most beautiful you've ever looked, while still capturing who you are and how you're feeling perfectly. Her pictures are timeless and gorgeously stunning! She really guided us throughout our engagement photoshoot and our wedding day and helped my husband and I not feel like awkward ducks doing poses that felt unnatural or not like ourselves. I couldn't tell you exactly how she does it except that to say she just made us feel so comfortable the entire time and gave us the space to be silly, and just enjoy ourselves. We couldn't recommend Lauren highly enough and I absolutely know we will be working with her for more family milestones in the future!

Hey there! Thank you so much for checking out my work! I'm a Michigan wedding & elopement photographer based out of the Lansing area but am available for travel wherever your heart desires. 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!

Love Knot Photography

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
A few things that stood out the most about Isaac were how responsive he was, how he was able to accommodate to our budget, and how he took pictures from angles and views that turned out great on the photos. As a couple with demanding careers, I much appreciated how quickly Isaac was with replying to emails. We had a pretty tight budget, and Isaac was able to offer us a package that landed pretty close to our budget and only had the items that we needed the most (mini engagement photoshoot for the website and wedding day). Our ask for him was to get some candid shots as we feel pretty awkward in front of the camera. I personally think that the wedding day pictures came out more naturally because of the setting being surrounded with friends and families, and Isaac and Sushen did a great job capturing the candid moments beautifully. Isaac even had an idea for me to pose by climbing up a wooden stair ladder for a shot that I honestly wasn't sure how it was going to turn out while doing it, but it ended up turning out beautiful and magazine-like in addition to other ones that he asked us to pose for. Isaac put together a behind the scenes video that also showed the reactions of guests to our photo place cards before we had entered the reception area, and this was lovely in that we got to see our guests' reactions that we weren't able to see.

From the very beginning of planning my surprise proposal to my girlfriend, working with Grace was an absolute pleasure. She was not only receptive to my ideas but also shared her own equally creative suggestions. Grace's professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. What truly made the experience special was how she made the entire photoshoot feel like a fun activity for us as a couple. Her creativity shone through as she guided us through various poses that felt incredibly natural. Grace's ability to put us at ease made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. One more remarkable detail was her dedication to research, ensuring we had perfect sunrise photos. It was evident that she went the extra mile to time everything perfectly. What stood out the most, though, was her unique talent for capturing the emotion and joy of the moment. I can't thank her enough for creating such a magical and unforgettable memory for us!

My (now) husband and I chose to hire Jennifer from Captured Couture as our photographer for our wedding. We were both blown away by her images posted on her website and Instagram page and after having a phone interview we were convinced she was the one for us. Jennifer was communicative and so easy to work with. We were able to get a free engagement session with the purchase of our package which was awesome because we were able to meet her in person before our actual wedding. The day of the wedding there were a few minor hiccups as our wedding was the same day as the Detroit Pride fest, and we weren’t sure some of our desired locations would be accessible. Without a moment of hesitation Jennifer, who knows the city of Detroit incredibly well, was able to secure a location for our first look and our wedding party photos which turned out to be perfect. Jennifer and her assistant LeAnn captured every part of our wedding with some much care and attention to detail. Our photos are spectacular and we are so thankful for our photography team. Both my husband and I would definitely recommend Captured Couture to anyone looking for wedding photography.

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!

Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get.

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 didn’t feel like just another client, but like we had made true friends. Can we give them 2000 stars? Highly, highly recommended!

What can I say about Amber… I could not have imagined a better photographer for our wedding! She was professional, excellent at communication prior to our big day, and best of all FUN! She was SO good with our kids and so accommodating. She legitimately felt like one of our guests while still somehow managing to capture every beautiful moment of our day. We have only seen our preview so far (just got marrie two days ago) but every single photo is gorgeous. Amber, I sincerely hope you read this and know how much we appreciate everything you did for us. You made me feel, and look, like a goddess, even though I had no idea what I was doing. I could not have asked for anyone better to capture our special day, and I can never thank you enough!

Barry is a cousin to my husband and he exceeded our expectations!! I really didn’t come across not 1 bad picture in the MANY pictures we received. His personality is great, and it seemed like he had a “crew” with how he captured every moment. I can’t wait to frame some of my pictures and honestly they are magazine quality. Thanks again for making our wedding spectacular, we’ll have memories for a lifetime!!

From the moment we booked McKenzie Blaszak Photography, we were impressed by her responsive, knowledgeable, and articulate communication style. McKenzie and her team were professional, fun, and great at putting everyone at ease during our wedding day. When a few unexpected issues arose, McKenzie helped us troubleshoot and work around them seamlessly.

Hi I am Kate! I have a bachelor of fine arts in photography, and have been photographing weddings and elopements for around 5 years.

I shoot both digital and film, and have a documentary fine art shooting style with a modern twist.

Kate photographed my daughter’s wedding. She is so great at what she does, all the best adjectives apply to her. From engagement photos to the wedding, communication was great, work ethic, professional, putting people at ease! She’s the real deal!
