My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

I am a luxury destination photographer based in MICHIGAN, COLORADO & FLORIDA! I am ALL over Michigan and all over the nation! I have a home in Lansing, Holland & Traverse City. I travel all over Michigan capturing my clients from Lansing to Grand Rapids to the west coast of Lake Michigan to Mackinac Island & Traverse City to all metro Detroit! I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. 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 (Elle & Co Photography) has an art of being professional while also being laid back and understanding. We had a lot of things pop up on our wedding day and Dani knew how to take charge and keep things going but she has a safe energy and made everyone in our group feel super comfortable. She was a great addition to our day! Not to mentioned was very accommodating to what we’ve wanted and our photos are actually pieces of ART. I cannot believe how amazing our photos turned out. I had a dream of having head turning wedding photos but I wasn’t confident I was capable of having them because I don’t know to pose or act in front of the camera and Dani made it happen for us. We are so happy with our photos and will be bugging Dani for years to come to continue to capture us.

Wildcrest Studio

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Portland, MI

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!

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 :)

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!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

I started in photography in 2008 and travel all over Michigan for weddings.

Awarded Best of Zola
When I was looking for a wedding photographer, Sydney stood out against the rest of them. She is so quick to email you back, is friendly and knowledgeable about all aspects of weddings. When it came to our engagement session she gave us ideas for locations and just made the whole experience so fun and easy. My husband hates his photos being taken and he enjoyed our engagement session and loved talking to Sydney's husband who was with her. When it came to our wedding day, Sydney has this awesome questionnaire that answers everything! There were questions on there I never even thought about!! She showed up early and found places for portraits and checked in on me. She's just the sweetest and made our day so special, even through the stressful parts. She was a blast at our reception dancing with everyone on the dance floor while taking photos, like I said she made the day even better. We were sitting in our hotel room the night of our wedding and I got a Facebook notification from Sydney Marie Photography, Sydney had posted 10 photos from our wedding, I couldn't believe it and it made me so happy. I can't thank Sydney enough for everything, if you're looking for a photographer do not hesitate and hire her.

After being adopted from China, I fell in love with everything creativity. I was always drawing, editing my friend’s insta pictures for fun, and of course having mini photoshoots. I felt so much joy when it came to creating art that could be saved forever. It didn’t take until college that I used all my money from my savings to buy my own camera- yeah I definitely knew my priorities. When I had time in between classes and studying I devoted it to taking pictures of everything. Wedding photography was a complete different realm of opportunities. Capturing the sweetest day and to gift that is unmatched.

I truly cannot say enough kind things about Rylee! From our initial inquiry meeting all the way to the wedding day, Rylee was enthusiastic, joyful, and just so great to work with. She is so easy to talk to and it felt like I immediately gained a new friend. Her work is beautiful and authentic and really captures the moment perfectly. You can tell she really cares about what she does and also cares about her couples. My husband and I did an engagement session with Rylee too and loved all the photos from that as well. Rylee will be your number one hype girl and will make you feel at ease and comfortable. Would definitely recommend Rylee for any of your photography needs!! :)

I have been a photographer for 5 years now and my favorite moment of a wedding is when you hit the dance floor and are surrounded by all your favorite people!

I cant wait to be your new hype girl and third wheel!

Alexis was great from the start! She traveled for us for our engagement pictures in Ludington and to Bay City for the wedding. She had virtual meetings with us a few times to get the feel for our style and what we wanted. She even helped me decide on our engagement picture outfits! She always had suggestions and was easy to get ahold of too. She was so sweet too. Day of our wedding she had ideas of how to pose us but also took many candid shots too. Our guests loved her and she stayed a little later to capture something we requested during dancing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, she also gives sneak peaks right away, which we loved!!!

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 very first phone call, Rayna was incredibly clear and helpful in walking us through her process and what to expect on the day of our wedding. Her communication style put us at ease and made the photography planning a breeze. When the big day arrived, Rayna's experience and expertise truly shone through - she seamlessly executed a perfect timeline and captured all the special moments we wanted without feeling intrusive. The finished product was absolutely amazing, with so many beautiful and creative photos that we'll cherish forever. Rayna made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera and kept everything flowing smoothly, allowing her to get so many incredible shots in a short amount of time.

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

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,700
  • Serves Portland, MI

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.

We’re Kristyn and Jon! We’ve been together since 2014 and got married in 2019 with an epic disaster of a wedding! We planned it so carefully and thought of every detail so we could give our guests the ultimate experience (being wedding pros and all) and ended up with a monsoon that caused our tent to start collapsing! In the end, nothing went as planned except that we did what we set out to do- marry each other! While we can’t control the weather on your day, we can make it an amazing, fun-filled experience and be able to tell your story in the most authentic way possible, creating a work of art with your memories at the center of it.

We've worked with Blush a few times and they are amazing! They get proofs back on time, and their final results are stunning. They are on time, professional, and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them for all of your photography and videography needs!

My name is Alicia, and I'm a designer/photographer living in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I am so thankful that I am able to capture the love stories of real people and provide them with honest, unposed images that they will cherish for the rest of their lives. Thank you for stopping by. I would love to work with you. Let's chase some light together.

We will treasure Alicia’s photos FOREVER. She was so amazing to have around on our big day and made us feel totally comfortable and at ease. We originally didn’t want to spend a lot of time on photos (we’d rather be hanging out with our family and friends!) but Alicia made taking photos so fun that we wanted to keep taking photos! We will really treasure these forever :)

I’m an endless optimist and can (or at least try to) make a joke out of anything. I’m rooted in tradition, but hate following the crowd. I absolutely believe in love at first sight. I love couples who love each other madly, and love to have fun together. I love capturing your true authentic self on camera. From belly laughs to romantic kisses that belong in a chick-flick, I’ll do what it takes to make sure you have the most fun throughout your wedding. I love creating images that are bold, bright, happy, and fun! After all, weddings are happy occasions – why should your photos reflect anything different?!

Jessie loves weddings and it shows with every photo she takes. She made us feel so at ease on our wedding day and was wonderful with organizing our families and capturing beautiful, authentic photos of them. Jessie is also amazing at capturing candids. She delivered beautiful photos beyond our wildest dreams. If you want an amazingly talented photographer who will help keep your day streamlined, calm, magical, and fun, Jessie is your gal!

As a Michigan Wedding Photographer, for over 8 years now we have curated an honest and timeless collection of our couples stories here in West Michigan and throughout the state of Michigan. We have a keen eye for detail and a talent for storytelling. We create stunning, meaningful imagery, that captures the essence of your love story for all couples looking for a Michigan wedding photographer or luxury photographer for their destination weddings in the US. We capture classic elegant shots and a mixture of posed and documentary style photos that you will love.

We loved working with Amy! She was easy to work with leading up to the day, and had multiple meetings talking about the timeline and she would give advice if she thought we missed anything. Day of, she kept everything on schedule! We had a large bridal party and her and the second photographer were great and kept everyone in check. Unfortunately, it rained on our day but Amy was quick to pivot and our shots still turned out amazing. She also sent the previews so quickly and way more than I thought. We are so happy with how the previews turned out and can't wait to see the full album!
