Olivia Faith Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Lansing, MI

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!

Sav was the most amazing photog we could have ever been blessed with for our day! She was so great at capturing what was important to us, from our very unique engagement photos to our whimsical wedding photos. She listened to all of my little details and made everything come to life! She also brought the vibes on wedding day, made sure I wasn’t stressed about time, and made sure my lashes were always glued down and my dress had fashion tape where it was needed. I would recommend her to literally anyone, and hope she can continue to capture all the big moments in my life!

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!

Hi! My name is Mae, and I live in Brooklyn with my girlfriend, our two dogs Apollo and Bia, her cat Gigi and my lizard, Basil! I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I came across Mae’s work when looking for a photographer for engagement photos in Central Park, and I was immediately impressed with Mae and knew we were going to be incredibly happy with the results. Mae responded immediately to all my questions, day or night, and took the time to video chat with me at length twice before the shoot to discuss what we were looking for in our photos. Before the shoot, I had sent her a few examples of what I liked, and not only did the photos come out exactly how I wanted them, but were even more perfect than I envisioned. The engagement shoot itself was so much fun, and Mae made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process, despite us thinking we’d both feel awkward getting posed photos of us taken. Mae truly had a vision for what poses, locations, and lighting would work, and the execution was perfect. Some of the feedback we got from our friends was that the photos looked like a magazine, and that they were “ethereal.” Even better, Mae somehow got us the edited photos back within 24 hours of the shoot. Her pricing is also incredibly reasonable given the quality of her work, meticulousness, and experience in photography, as well as the very quick turnaround time. My fiance and I truly cannot recommend her enough, and we are excited to work with her again in the future. She is truly an artist, and any couple would be incredibly lucky to work with her!

**TO CONTACT: VISIT MY WEBSITE. I AM NOT ACTIVE ON ZOLA.** Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Nicole was nothing short of phenomenal! From our very first conversation to the day of our event, her communication was excellent. Neither my husband nor I are big on being photographed, but Nicole captured us at our best. She made us feel incredibly comfortable—like we were just having fun with a friend who happened to be taking pictures! Our sneak peeks arrived right on time, and she even sent some ahead of schedule so we could use them for our thank-you cards. More than anything, she delivered exactly what we wanted—the timeless, old-film look that made our photos feel so special. Our vow renewal and reception were filled with so much joy, and a huge part of that was because Nicole helped us focus on having fun instead of feeling self-conscious. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!
