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.

From the very first interaction, the team at Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. was incredibly responsive, patient, and detailed in their communication with us. On our wedding day, their incredible attention to detail was evident in the stunning photos they captured. They were constantly checking in with us throughout the reception to make sure we were getting all the shots we wanted. As a couple who isn't always comfortable in front of the camera, Mario made us feel at ease and was able to create the exact type of photos we had envisioned. Our wedding day was truly unforgettable, and we have Once Like a Spark to thank for preserving those memories so beautifully. We would absolutely recommend them to any couple planning their big day!

Hi! At Promani Weddings, we are a local wedding media team that specializes in capturing the magic of wedding celebrations. Led by owner and accomplished photographer/filmmaker Benjamin, our dedicated team of talented photographers and videographers excels at transforming your special day into timeless memories. In thanks to high demand from all of our amazing couples, we have established incredible teams in Michigan, Tennessee and North Carolina!! I can't wait to hear from you and learn more about your wedding.

Exceptional Wedding Photography Experience I recently had the pleasure of working with a Ben and his team (shout out Mike!!), Promani Weddings, whose talent and professionalism made our wedding day truly unforgettable. From the moment we met, it was clear that he wasn't just there to take pictures—he was invested in ensuring our special day was captured in the most beautiful and authentic way possible. -Personable and Friendly Approach One of the standout qualities of our photographer was his warm and personable demeanor. He immediately put us at ease, making us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. This was especially appreciated during those hectic pre-ceremony moments when nerves were running high. His ability to connect with us and our guests on a personal level created an atmosphere of trust and camaraderie, which translated into natural and genuine photographs. -Unique Candid Photography Technique What truly set our photographer apart was his innovative use of candid photography. Instead of staging every shot, he discreetly captured spontaneous moments that perfectly encapsulated the emotions and relationships of everyone present. This approach resulted in photos that felt alive and authentic, reflecting the true essence of the love and joy we experienced that day. Looking through our wedding album, we were amazed at how he managed to capture moments we didn't even realize were happening, yet are now some of our most cherished memories. If you’re on the fence about doing candid photography for your wedding, this is your sign to DO IT! -Superb Communication and Understanding Throughout the planning process, our photographer was incredibly communicative and attentive. He took the time to understand our vision for the day and worked closely with us to ensure every detail was accounted for. His professionalism and dedication were evident in his proactive approach to logistics and his responsiveness to our questions and concerns. He was not just a hired vendor but a true partner in ensuring our wedding photography exceeded our expectations. -Execution of Vision On the day of the wedding, Ben seamlessly executed the vision we had discussed. His keen eye for detail and mastery of light and composition resulted in stunning images that captured the beauty of the venue, the emotions of our guests, and the intimacy of our ceremony. He balanced capturing the big moments with the subtle nuances that made our day unique, ensuring that every aspect of our celebration was documented with care and artistry. I cannot recommend Ben, Mike and Promani Weddings highly enough. His talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his craft shone through in every interaction and in every photograph. He not only met but exceeded our expectations, delivering a collection of images that we will treasure for a lifetime. It’s been two weeks since our wedding and we already have our edited photos, highlight reel and full ceremony video. If you're looking for a photographer who will not only capture moments but also enhance your wedding day experience, look no further. Hiring him was one of the best decisions we made, and we are forever grateful for the memories he preserved so beautifully.

Jeron was fantastic throughout our entire engagement and wedding process! He was super communicative, professional, and knowledgeable which was a huge stress relief throughout all the planning.

It's the most cliche thing to say but we love love here at Moonrae. We are a team of five photographers and four videographers. We travel all over the US and out of the country🥰 Not only do we love love, but we absolutely love our couples. We believe that love is love no matter shape, size, color, gender, etc and we believe that you should feel loved and accepted by all. You will always be welcome and your wedding day will always be our priority.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about working with Mikayla from Moonrae! She is so kind, friendly, caring, thoughtful and considerate of all your wants, needs, and especially your vision of your wedding day! She made the planning process so simple. Mikayla was very accessible and had clear, concise communication throughout the entire process! My goal was to have documentary style, candid photos that showed the joy we felt that day the and love we felt for each other. She did exactly that! We used her for our engagement shoot, and for our photography and videography on our wedding day! Our sneak peeks were AMAZING and exactly what I wanted! Our amazing photographer day of, Ali, was quick to put out small fires and think on her feet, all while making sure we were happy and didn’t need anything! Whether we needed encouragement, direction or even another drink, she was there! So many people told me they were impressed with how much our videographer, Jackson, captured EVERY moment! He was constantly moving around, getting different angles, and getting different perspectives of our day. Overall, my experience with Moonrae Photography was excellent, and I have nothing but positive things to say about the company, and it’s lovely owner! If you’re looking for an amazing photographer with great attention to detail, strong professionalism, a caring heart and a creative eye, look no further!!!

Hello! My name is Tonya. First and foremost, I am a mom to a beautiful little boy (who, let's face it, is completely tired of mom's camera!). I started behind a camera almost fifteen years ago when my grandpa first showed me how to use his. I live for the click of the shutter, capturing those moments that will be gone but never forgotten. Having been a previous cast member at Walt Disney World (and other theme parks), I found that I love the organized chaos that comes with photographing a wedding. Not to mention, who doesn't adore capturing the love between two people?

Awarded Best of Zola
Tonya was incredible. I got engaged December 2019 and was looking to book a photographer pretty early on. Then the pandemic began and my plans changed, slowly at first, then drastically. Tonya was caring and understanding of my situation even before i was an official customer. She kept my date closed in her books until i was finally able to pay in full. She's a very sweet person and so easy to get along with. She's versatile in her editing style and is great if you are looking for something "light and airy" or something a little more "moody". Booking Tonya was hands down the best decision i made with my wedding (second only to picking the man i married).

Barry's professionalism and dedication to his craft were evident in every aspect of his work at our event. He went above and beyond to ensure that every moment was captured perfectly.

Awarded Best of Zola
McKenzie was everything I could have asked for in a photographer. I spent a lot of time looking through photographers in the area, as having nice photos to look back on was super important to me. We don't live near where our venue was, so I was a bit nervous about not being able to meet the vendors ahead of time, but this was not a problem at all. McKenzie was very communicative and video called me for our meetings, was up front about the costs and payments, and honestly just so so sweet. I genuinely felt like she was just as excited about my wedding as I was. Her positive attitude was so reassuring and I knew right away that we made the right choice. On our wedding day, she gave great direction for posing, which was super helpful as our bridal party (bride & groom included) were not very experienced working with a professional photographer. I have a pretty big blended family, and McKenzie was so helpful organizing everybody and making sure everyone looked their best for photos (even making it work when some family members made things complicated). We had a videographer as well that McKenzie had never worked with before, but you couldn't tell that they had just met that day, as the worked so well together. When people were at risk of interrupting our photos, she kindly asked them to move, and snuck me out for sunset photos during the ceremony with ease. We had our "sneak peek" photos sent to us only a few days after the wedding which were so sweet to look at during our honeymoon. She even included a sweet card in our card box. Not only is she talented, but she is kind, helpful, understanding, and it felt like I was working with a friend (despite basically being strangers). These are photos I will have to look back on to remember these moments forever and I am so grateful I chose the right photographer. I would highly recommend McKenzie to anyone looking for a wedding photographer, or a photographer for any service she offers.

I captured my first wedding in August of 2018, it was the day I fell head over heels in love with wedding photography. It's all about capturing the love story for me..the feels from beginning to end. When you book with AGS, you're signing on for an adventure. Your engagement session is a celebration full of us getting to know one another, lots of laughter, and having fun! As your wedding nears closer AGS will help with your timeline, connect with your vendors ( or introduce you to some of the best) and help plan out the perfect photo locations, along with any other needs to create the perfect day.

Gosh, I don't know where to begin with Arleigh. From the beginning, it felt like we knew Arleigh for the longest time. She made us feel so comfortable from the get-go. Her friendly and full of positivity and love personality made us feel so sure about choosing her as our wedding photographer. She captured our personalities and love in the most beautiful way. The photos she took truly showed who we were as a couple. In addition, she was a calming force as I was full of anxiety before walking down the aisle in front of a huge crowd. She made sure we were happy and calm the entire day and was always willing to take care of us in any way she could. I know I will be forever recommending Arleigh to others, as well as using her in the future for family portraits.

I’m Katy, a Michigan based wedding + event photographer who loves to travel. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016. My love for photography started out when I was about 6 years old. I’m a huge goofball, so if you’ve ever thought “I’ll be too awkward in photos," I know what you mean. We can be goofballs together, and I promise I won’t let you look awkward in any of your photos. A little more about me: I'm a foodie. Send bar/restaurant recommendations please! I spend a good portion of my time at concerts when I'm not photographing anything. I'm also a HUUUUGE Detroit Red Wings fan!

Katy is AMAZING! Our photos turned incredible and were everything we dreamed of. Not only that, Katy was such a wonderful part of our day. We had a very small wedding and every person that interacted with her or saw her working was obsessed with her. All I heard the following day was how great she was and how fun she made the day. I wish I could get married again to have her so my pictures again!

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 :)

Hi, I'm Kendall, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Fenton, MI. As a photographer, I view every shoot as an opportunity to capture the beauty in the little moments- to make a masterpiece out of something that, to the naked eye, would seem mundane.

Weddings are hectic and we are terrible at planning. Kendall had the patience of a saint with the chaos we were working through and was still by far the most pleasant person we worked with during our wedding season. In terms of her photos, pricing and proverbial “bang for your buck,” there is nobody who is bringing the level of quality in their photos that she is capable of producing in the price range she offers her services for. We chose her from a list of over 80 photographers offering their services to us, Kendall was the clear and obvious choice for the reasons I mentioned above. We had extremely high expectations for what we were hoping to receive back and she’s already exceeded them with what she’s sent us in the sneak peak. If you’re thinking of doing business with her, book her now, you will regret not securing her for your date, as I promise someone else will!

Hi! It's nice to meet you. I would shake your hand, but I'm more of a fist-bump type of gal. 😃 I have worked full-time as a math and special education teacher for over 20 years, and nearing my 40's, decided to pursue photography since it has been a life-long interest of mine. In 2019, I completed a digital photography degree and while it originally started as a hobby, my work gained a following so I decided to make things official in 2020. Over the past couple of years, my focus has been on photographing families in addition to couples in love. Getting a couple who's madly in love in front of your camera is pure magic!

Sarah did our wedding photos & was absolutely amazing! She really took the time to capture all the right moments and you can see the love and happiness in our pictures. She was also great with our families and guests.

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot express enough how much I enjoy working with Taylor & Jarod! They are not only very talented, yet very fun to work alongside with. The always produce amazing quality work, and their communication with me as the coordinator is always punctual. I of course have them on my Preffered Vendor List and highly highly recommend them to my couples. You will have such a fun time with these two, and all of your special moments will be captured- garenteed! True professionals.

Hi!! I'm Jen, the heart and soul behind Jen Marie Imagery! I'm passionate about creating unforgettable memories through my lens. Beyond being a dedicated photographer, I'm a coffee lover, taco enthusiast, concert junkie, Netflix aficionado, and proud pet parent. My journey with photography started as a childhood passion, using up all my mom's film on disposable cameras. What began as a hobby transformed into my life's calling in 2016 when I booked my first wedding. From that moment, I knew I had found my true purpose. There’s nothing I love more than photographing love!

Jen is amazing. Book her right now, you won’t regret it. Seriously, do it. Both my husband and I were a bit camera shy and nervous about getting our professional photos done but from the moment we met her, Jen put us at ease. Not only did we feel comfortable taking photos with her, but I felt she really captured us, our joy, and our love for each other in all of the photos. After our wedding she sent us hundreds of photos, and every single one is a treasure that I can’t stop looking through. We’ve gotten so many compliments and many have said these are the best wedding photos they’ve ever seen. She’s so committed to you, she even stood in a down pour and slid down a wet hill to get the perfect first look photos. Book her, you will not regret it.

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.

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!

We hired Madalyn to take our engagement photos and to photograph our wedding, and she was the absolute best. From the very beginning, she was super on top of everything, with multiple questionnaires over the course of the year leading up to our wedding. She made a schedule for our wedding day that we were able to share with the rest of our vendors and included so many useful details. Besides how organized and pleasant Madalyn was to work with, her photographs were incredible. She captured so much joy in her pictures and we could not be happier that we hired her for our wedding.

I've been specializing in weddings for nearly 15 years. My style includes capturing the many genuine moments that occur during the wedding day in an unobtrusive and low key way. Documenting the day in an artistic and non cheesy way really tells the story of a couple's big day. I feed off the energy from couple's and their guests and craft a story of their day through photos. On a personal note, I have a loving wife, 3 kids and 2 dogs!

Matt is by far one of the best single shooter photographers I have ever met. He is everywhere he needs to be to get all of the amazing shots you want. He is so easy going and professional! You will love every single picture he takes and it will be hard to pick what ones you will want in your wedding album, and on your walls. He gets to know you on a personal level and listens to what you want. He is the best!!

Kirsten Wray Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding.

Despite having a huge family that was challenging to wrangle, Kirsten was professional, prompt, and thorough in getting all the group shots we wanted. The finished photos are of excellent quality and editing, capturing all the special moments of our day in a way that exceeds our expectations. Kirsten went above and beyond to deliver amazing photos, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

She was organized, thoughtful, and thorough at every point in the process, and can make a wedding at any venue feel special and snazzy. We HIGHLY recommend her to any future couples!
