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!

Ever since childhood, I’ve been captivated by the power of photos and the stories they tell. Growing up, I’d lose myself in family photo albums, fascinated with freezing moments in time led me to photography, a medium that became my canvas for expressing emotions and creativity. What fuels my passion for wedding photography? It’s the profound belief in the power of love stories. In a world where adult milestones are fewer, the journey of marrying your best friend and soulmate stands out as a core memory. I find immense joy in capturing the moments when love, support, and celebration intertwine, creating memories that last a lifetime.

I am a luxury destination photographer based in Michigan, Florida & Colorado! I am ALL over Michigan and all over the nation! I have a home in Lansing and Holland and I travel all over Michigan capturing my clients from Lansing to Grand Rapids to the west coast of Lake Michigan to northern Michigan, Mackinac Island and Traverse City to areas of Detroit! I also have condo access in Clearwater, FL and Breckenridge, CO. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Dani was phenomenal to work with from the very beginning. Her communication and professionalism are top notch yet she made us feel super comfortable like we're old friends. My now husband & I had never had professional pictures done and we were really nervous for how our wedding photos would turn out naturally because of that and being naturally introverted. Dani got us comfortable at our engagement session and all of our photos from our engagement session to our wedding day turned out so amazing!! HIGHLY recommend to hire Dani!!

I live with my husband Clayton, our two little kids, & our sweet little puppy, Xander. I love coffee, seltzer, attempting to learn to play the guitar, & wine. Mainly, I live & breathe weddings. I adore the challenge & joy of shooting your wedding day- capturing every little moment of your day is my very own marathon and I absolutely live for it. So much so that if you want to share every wedding detail with me, prior to the big day, I'm all for it!

Hiring Kelsey Combe Photography was one of our best decisions throughout our wedding planning process. From the beginning her communication was prompt and it was clear that she cared. She even reassured me throuhought the planning process, when I was doubting other wedding vendors abilities. She’s incredibly easy to get along with and made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. Her work is beyond beautiful and timeless. I am over the moon thrilled with how she captured our special day (and engagment photos)! She is truly a master at what she does!

Breanne Rochelle Photography

  • Classic style
  • Serves Houghton Lake, MI

I’m Breanne, a Michigan-based classic wedding photographer and creative with a big heart. Coffee is my love language. Super passionate about black and white photos, sunshine, real love stories, travel, pearls, and my husband & goldendoodle Brinkley. Detroit | Northern Michigan | Florida

Awarded Best of Zola
Best. Decision. Ever. We booked Breanne maybe two weeks after we got engaged, after pricing out a few other options. She is extremely organized and professional, provided us all the documentation we needed to review, and promptly set up an initial meeting. Once we booked her for the wedding, we scheduled engagement photos. Breanne traveled significant distances for both our engagement session and our actual wedding. Her pricing is competitive with other Detroit photographers but I really don't think her work product is competitive because she is leaps and bounds above other photographers. Take a look through her galleries and you can see why she is so highly rated - you can literally see individuals' personalities through her photos. That's what drew us to her initially, and she did not disappoint. I will say the engagement session is necessary practice, so that Breanne can get to know you and you get to know her. I don't think our wedding photos would have turned out as outstanding as they did without that practice. Prior to the wedding, Breanne was very responsive to communication and she goes above and beyond to help you with any part of your wedding - she just truly loves love. Her timeline was the backbone of my wedding and I tailored all the other vendors and reception events around her schedule. Working with Breanne was the least stressful and most enjoyable part of wedding planning. She is exceptionally professional and prepared, and yet she communicates with personalized attention that makes you feel like she's your friend helping you plan your wedding. It is the perfect mix of professional competence and genuine interest. At the actual wedding, Breanne was a rockstar. She gives you everything you need in advance to prepare, like checklists and timelines. Once there, she is a calming presence. My makeup people were running an hour behind so instead of plenty of time to get dressed and do bridal portraits, we had about ten minutes. Breanne jumped right in to assist with my MOH and I've never seen buttons get done so quickly. And she still managed to take breathtaking bridal photos in about 3 minutes. She was also flexible when she saw we weren't going to stick to the timeline, she improvised and took venue photos while she waited for me. After the wedding, she was quick and efficient with the family and bridal party photos and kept the focus on the bride and groom, which I really appreciated. She manages all expectations when it comes to gallery delivery as well. AND THE PHOTOS ARE UNBELIEVABLE. I cannot stress this enough. She provides photos that are true and authentic to who you are, and how you feel the day you get married. She is not a bystander to your wedding, just doing her job until it's on to the next wedding. She truly participates, learns the names of your bridal party, remembers the little details or special requests that are important to you, and always gets your good side. Like most couples, my groom doesn't usually like how he looks in photos. But our wedding photos were the perfect depiction of "us". Every time I go through them (which is very often) I keep thinking to myself, "yes, this is us, this is exactly how I remember that moment". A lot of wedding websites tell you not to skimp on the photos and it's true because after those 24 hours fly by, you will only have these photos to remember them. And you will not be disappointed if you chose Breanne Rochelle Photography to capture your day.

I always have a bottle of champagne in the fridge while Aj is always trying different kinds of scotch. Hence the names of our wedding packages.

I'm a love storyteller from Grand Rapids, Michigan. I primarily photograph weddings and engagements in and around the Midwest as well as destination weddings. I aim to tell love stories as honestly, candidly and uniquely as possible and I hope those attributes come across in my imagery. I firmly believe Love is Love and that everyone deserves beautiful images. I promise I will go above and beyond for you and be genuinely invested in your photographs far beyond just taking pictures. I've told hundreds of love stories and I hope to tell yours one day.

Awarded Best of Zola
It is really hard for me to put into words just how amazing Katie and her husband Matt are. We found them through our friends who used them for their wedding. We knew we wanted to do a destination wedding, and our friends had attended one the year before in Jamaica which Katie and Matt photographed. Because of that wedding, they chose them to be their photographer for their wedding in Michigan. After we saw the photos from the destination wedding and our friend's engagement photos we knew they would be perfect for us. After we saw our friend's wedding photos we knew made the right choice. Katie and Matt from the beginning were super helpful and were incredibly integral on our wedding weekend and day. When they arrived in Mexico, they met up with us and started to work immediately. They came to our rehearsal helping us decide where to put our camera for filming the ceremony and other helpful advice for the day of. They helped find the PERFECT first look location. On the day of the wedding, Katie and Matt were energetic and came ready to help put us to ease. Katie and Matt just have a way of making you feel at ease and then make you look like models. They did a great combination of classic portraits but a lot of candid photos mixed in (which were my favorites). They stayed through the our whole reception and the photos we got look out of a bridal magazine. We had a secondary shoot the day after as a Trash the Dress photo shoot, and the sunset photos we got look like post cards. The only down side of using Katie and Matt is that they gave us too many photos we want to print and get framed! Book them for your destination wedding (or Michigan wedding) and you will absolutely be making the best decision!

I'm a Michigan Native and moved north 6 years ago - best decision I've ever made. I prefer whiskey and lakeside campfires, but I also love a night out on the town. I'm a mom, major cat lady, and I'm currently loving Seinfield reruns. I'm a teacher by degree, and have worked in the event industry for years. I'm a big true crime junkie - podcasts, books, shows - all of it, but I cannot for the life of me watch a scary movie. I believe the best moments happen in the in-between, and these in-betweens tell our story. I love stopping time in these moments, just for a minute, so you can tell your story for years to come.

Featured on Today show and Wedding Day Magazine. I believe everyone deserves to have life's biggest moments captured on camera. But photos turn into heirlooms when the moments are documented in a way that feels absolutely authentically you. No forced emotions, no fake smiles, and certainly no awkward prom-pic poses. Whether you’re dressed to the nines on the day of your wedding or, the dirty white dress that spent more time on the dance floor than the altar let’s capture the authentic you and have a damn good time doing it.

Mary was such an incredible photographer and person to work with for our wedding!! We are not too comfortable in front of the camera and she did such a fantastic job helping us and coaching us so our pictures were the best they could be. The day of the wedding she went above and beyond to make sure it was special and memorable and I cannot rave about her enough. We love Mary!!!

I am a huge advocate for capturing the world you see before you and not a fake perception of that world. I am welcoming of all and will photograph all regardless of race, religion, gender expression and identity, sexual orientation, age, size, ability, ethnicity, or culture. Our world is diverse and my portfolio should be too.

She listens, is laid back and her work is phenomenal, and she's punctual. Can't ask for anything more! We're a goofy couple and she captured us perfectly

Hi there! My name is Mackenzie. I am 25 years old born and raised in New Boston, Michigan where my studio is located. I love traveling and going to new locations so don't hesitate to ask me. I have worked in Healthcare for almost 7 years. I'm blessed to be able to do Photography in my free time and now make it a full time second income. Something I have realized in over three years of owning my business and creating precious moments is that a captured moment can tell a thousand stories and you should never hide yours. Capture every moment. Wanna know more about me? Message me and let's chat soon.

Me and my fiancé were newbies at getting our photos taken and Mackenzie helped to ease our nerves by giving us great direction. The turn around time was sooner than expected and I am obsessed with how our photos turned out. Will definitely book with Small Beginnings photography in the future and highly recommend to others as well!

I have used Becca Gail Photography over and over. She does amazing work and makes you feel very comfortable. Becca offers greet suggestions and posing to really make you photos look amazing. She has shot boudoir, engagement, and family photos for me and is shooting my upcoming wedding in a few months. Booking her as my photographer was by far the easiest decision and I know once we booked I wouldn’t have to stress about photos anymore. Definitely recommend!

I am focussed on gorgeous lighting, poses that are natural and flattering and the luxury that embodies your magical day.

Awarded Best of Zola
8 years ago I became an Astrid Cordier Bride and it was one of the best decisions I have made in my life! Looking back at my wedding day, the most valuable thing to me by far is the unbelievable photos! It is my most beloved memories of the day I married my soulmate and best friend, and also the day my mother was still alive- walking me down the aisle! I cherish these everlasting memories captured perfectly on the photos that my children now admire, and that their children will one day look at and talk about. Our photos will pass from generation to generation and I am proud of my photos. Astrid Cordier captured each moment perfectly! She made us feel confident & beautiful in front of the camera and she could even get my husband (who does not like photos in general) to smile and enjoy taking each photo! I will book her services for as long as I live. Soon when my 10 year anniversary comes up, she will surely be the first person I contact to take the photos at our Wedding vow renewal ceremony. Highly recommended!!! I am proud to call myself an Astrid Cordier Bride!

I am a full time photographer, momma of two boys, and wife to my hubby out here documenting love stories just like yours! I have been a photographer for over 25 years, professionally capturing weddings for over 7 years.

We had Nina shoot our wedding on May 20, 2023. She is super professional and organized. She is very good with going with the flow but also following the plan. She’s also extremely good at getting candid photos and tricking anybody into being less awkward with the camera on them. Another huge plus is that while her return time might be longer, you get all of the photos from your day rather than a select amount which was a huge thing for us. We love Nina and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for an amazing photographer.

Hi I'm Patty, your wedding photographer. I am based in West Michigan and spend over 50% of my season servicing Detroit & Chicago couples. Along with servicing the Michigan and Chicago market, I have slowly begun to expand my territory to include destination work with places like Texas, Virginia, Florida and Spain. I serve couples who understand that this season is one worth being celebrated and remembered. The couples who embrace their family and their people however that looks. Most importantly I serve those who see these photographs as an investment into their legacy.

Choosing Patty to be our photographer was the greatest decision we’ve ever made! From the moment we met her to receiving our wedding photos, Patty was INCREDIBLE. She made a wonderful effort to get to know us before our engagement shoot. Not only is Patty a phenomenal photographer, but she has also become such a sweet friend - going as far to lend me her Hulu password so we could be caught up on How I Met Your Father together. I felt like she understood our style and matched our energy wonderfully. During our engagement shoot in Saugatuck, Michigan, I was insistent we went to the beach to take some photos. Little did we know it would be a nearly mile hike in the heat of summer to get there. Despite sweating our butts off, Patty had a smile on her face the entire time and was incredibly professional. The photos were breathtaking and exceeded our expectations. During our wedding day Patty was there for every special moment, big and small. We didn’t worry once about the photos because we knew we were in wonderful hands. We had about 225 guests and both have big families, Patty was able to manage all of us during our family portraits! Patty is such a genuine person with a remarkable eye and talent. We can’t recommend Patty enough to be your wedding photographer!
