I can't express how thrilled we are with the incredible work of March81 Photography, especially with Michael and Jennifer capturing our wedding day. Their talent and professionalism shone through, and the photos they delivered were absolutely breathtaking. We couldn't have asked for a better team to capture our special moments. Having both Michael and Jennifer was a brilliant decision, as it allowed them to be in multiple places at once, ensuring no precious moment was missed.

Kate English Photography

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500

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 went above and beyond on our wedding day to ensure our special moments were fully captured. Both on film and digitally, she understood the essence of our day and worked diligently to showcase that through final imagery. The film aspect was a sweet initial treat to receive. To see our day in a raw, one shot kind of experience. She was on time to her delivery of our final gallery and blew us away with her talent! Moody, clear and candid. Not to mention, she’s got a laugh that makes you laugh, a personality that allows you to feel yourself around and was professional from start to finish. She really cares for her clients and the work that she does. You can tell it’s more than just her business, it’s her entire heart! 100% recommend!

Wildcrest Studio, established by Jessie Harris, is a natural light, lifestyle photographer. I aim to capture the magic of your wedding day and you as a unique couple through peerless, stunning photographs!

Awarded Best of Zola
I am going to try and get off my soapbox for this review but I make no promises. Hiring Jessie Harris and Wildcrest Studios for my wedding was the single best decision I have ever made, except for marrying my husband. We had a small wedding, with a small budget, a very specific vision, no planner or coordinator, and no freaking clue what we were doing. From my first phone call with Jessie I knew that she was something special. She is experienced, organized, diligent, detail oriented, creative, kind, patient, and funny as heck. She truly listens to what you are hoping for and - somehow, despite all odds - she makes it happen. She LITERALLY threw off her shoes and climbed into Lake Michigan to get a shot of my husband and I on a dock at sunset. She kicked the groomsmen out of the area during our first touch because it was ruining the moment and I was too emotional and nervous to say anything. She drove across the state to shoot a pre-wedding reception for us. Alex, the second shooter, tied my husband’s bow tie for him before he walked down the aisle… and my brother’s… and my dad’s… and I’m pretty sure half the groomsmen’s bow ties too. She helped us create the timeline for our wedding day. She even gave us advice on what to pick for our first dance. And, to top it all off, she has provided us with the most unbelievable and stunning engagement, reception, and wedding day photos I could have imagined. Grateful doesn’t begin to cover how I feel when thinking about finding Jessie and Wildcrest Studios. Do yourself a favor and at least send an inquiry. Or don’t, and I’ll keep her all to myself :)

Her style of photography was exactly what we were looking for and we are so thrilled with the outcome. Lyndsey set up a meeting prior to our wedding and created a whole timeline for photos that went along with what our coordinators at the venue had planned. As a big planning person this was so nice for me to see how the whole day would fit together. My favorite thing about working with Lyndsey was just her in general. She is truly a kind person who is passionate about her work. She has an eye for photography that I haven’t seen in any one else’s work. The poses that she created felt natural and came across beautifully. I can’t recommend her enough. If you are looking for timeless looking photos that don’t fit into that standard wedding photo box then she is the one for you! I am so thankful to have worked with her during my wedding journey, she made everything amazing! I look forward to working with her again in the future.

Kaitlin Jude Photography

Grand Rapids, MI
  • Photojournalistic style

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.

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!

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! She was great with communicating with me about the weather and good times and days for photos leading up to the shoot. Then she arrived on time and was very professional and had poses picked out for us and directed us through the whole thing for amazing pictures. A very short amount of time later we received our beautiful sneak peeks- followed very closely by the rest of our gallery! Could not recommend more I am very happy with her and her work!

Hi, I'm Rayna! I grew up on a fifth generation farm in Kansas, studied photography in the Rocky Mountains, and now I live what I like to refer to as my "Hallmark Movie Life" residing in a quaint lakeside town working as a wedding photographer. Life is good! During your wedding day, my main focus is to document moments as they come, embracing each interaction and emotion with full arms. Encouraging authentic moments- I aim to not interfere with them. Each wedding photography experience through its entire process is specially tailored to its individual client from inquiry to gallery delivery, each one unique and true to themselves.

From the moment we first reached out to Rayna, her communication was efficient, helpful, and kind. The quality of her work was truly priceless - exceptional and irreplaceable. Rayna went above and beyond to make sure we got all the shots we wanted and that we felt comfortable and had fun throughout the entire process. She is the best wedding photographer we could have asked for, and we are overjoyed with the photos that captured our special day so perfectly. The guest loved her as well, commenting on how sweet she was and she blended in with the dynamic so well.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We were so pleased with OLAS and glad we hired them for our wedding. By far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They were prepared, communicative, and always available for questions. We were impressed from the beginning with their clear communication and responsiveness and we stay impressed after seeing the end result. We hired OLAS for photography and videography. Both did an amazing job and we were so happy with the results. OLAS also took the time to understand our needs and the unique cultural components of our ceremony (Indian Catholic ceremony) that needed attention. Highly recommend this company for your wedding. We were also so happy with the video quality - it was like watching a movie!

I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story.

Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

Hi, I’m Katy—a Michigan-based wedding photographer who loves to travel! I’ve been capturing love stories since 2016, blending vibrant, warm, and moody vibes with a mix of documentary, candid, and romantic styles. I’m a goofball at heart, so if you’re worried about feeling awkward in front of the camera, don’t be—we’ll have fun and create photos you’ll love. When I’m not behind the lens, I’m enjoying good food (send me your bar and restaurant recs!), live music, or cheering on the Detroit Red Wings. Let’s connect and tell your story your way!

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to begin? Finding Katy was truly one of the biggest blessings of our wedding process. It was very important to find a photographer who we felt had, and actively displayed, the ability to photograph in an inclusive, respectful and honest manner. We are an interfaith couple with family and friends who fall everywhere along the social, identity and religious spectrum. Once we found Katy, we were blown away by the love, care and diversity showcased in her portfolio. Upon meeting with her virtually, we were convinced that she was the right person. Katy is kind, understanding and VERY good at what she does. When it comes to the work, Katy was proactive without being pushy and really took to heart what we wanted out of our photos. Over the course of the experience, we were able to develop a real friendship with her because she is that good of a person. The day of the event, Katy was locked in and on top of everything. Prior to our weekend, she had done an amazing job of giving us prep sheets and coordinating as much detail as possible so the big day could just glide. Katy and her second shooter Jen (who was amazing, too!) were professional, fun and didn't miss a moment of the day. Everything from planned photos to impromptu shots felt fun and natural. Getting back the album completely blew past our expectations. Every photo captured exactly what we had discussed with her. So many photographs left us speechless. Katy should be at the top of your list if you want great photos full of love, care, and magic. She is down to earth and was the only photographer we spoke to that didn't make us feel like we were just another gig for them.

Hi, I’m Heather! (that's me on the left) I'm a wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing the genuine moments and raw emotions that make each wedding day so special. I’ve always been drawn to storytelling through photography, and over the years, I’ve developed a style that combines artistry with authenticity. My goal is to not just take pictures, but to tell the unique love story of each couple I work with, from the grand moments to the quiet, intimate details. My husband is a wedding videographer. So, if you are also looking for video, look no further!
