“We truly cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Brittney! On the wedding day, she was calm, organized, and blended into the background while somehow capturing every single special moment. The photos are beyond stunning—authentic, emotional, and full of life. They didn’t just document the day, they told our story. She made sure to capture every shot I wanted and then some! She was on top of it!! We got soo many compliments on her day of and still do! If you’re looking for someone who gets it—who can balance artistry with real emotion and make you feel completely at ease in front of the camera—look no further.”

Inspired by joy, childhood and fairytales, natural light, and classic simplicity, I create emotionally honest imagery that is clean, modern classic and forever timeless. I photograph the split-second interactions, glances, and intimate details...it’s about a feeling rather than posed, forced photographs. My greatest gift is to give you timeless images of what you've joyfully created in your life. It's an honor to be invited into your story to photograph moments and deliver those honest moments for you and your loved ones to keep as family heirlooms, that you will look back on for years and years.

Moments Captured By Vanessa

  • Serves Bad Axe, MI

I’ve been capturing weddings for over 20 years, and I still find myself falling in love with the magic of every single one. I actually started my journey at just 18 years old, and 600+ weddings later, my passion for storytelling has only grown. To me, wedding photography isn't just about the 'big' moments; it's about the love, the smiles, and the laughs that weave together to tell your unique story. My goal is to make sure you feel completely at ease so that your true personalities shine through in every frame.

“Moments Captured By Vanessa was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography. Vanessa is friendly, prompt, and completely professional. Her communication throughout the planning process was excellent, and she made sure we were comfortable and confident every step of the way. On the day of our wedding, which happened to be one of the coldest days of December, Vanessa didn't miss a beat- capturing beautiful, heartfelt, and creative images that we will hold on to forever. The final photos were truly timeless and classic. We are also so grateful to have such gorgeous shots of our reception, including some stunning photos featuring Christmas lights in the background (which can't be accomplished by every photographer l!). Vanessa's talent, hard work, and passion for her craft were evident in every single image. We couldn't be happier with the service and value we received from Moments Captured By Vanessa.”

Hi, I'm Kendall, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Mid Michigan. 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. My mission is to capture your story as beautifully as you've lived it through the perfect mix of a candid and editorial approach.

She captures the true feel of a moment so vividly that looking at her photos instantly brings back the music, laughter, and magic of the day. Choosing Kendall was hands down one of the best decisions we made! When weather forced us to pivot our photo schedule, Kendall and Tanner rolled with the punches effortlessly. They brought such a fun, relaxed vibe to the whole day—it felt like hanging out with best friends who were just as excited for us as our guests were. Overall, Kendall was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire planning process. Her care and passion for her work shine through everything she does, and we couldn't recommend her highly enough!”

Our photographer for the day was Malak. She was amazing! We love the photos from the day and are so grateful we will have these memories for years to come. Aside from gorgeous photos, she was also a lovely person and incredibly kind. She made sure we got each of the photos we wanted, was flexible when changing around the order of the shot list, and she had some great ideas for locations given it was a somewhat wet and overcast day from the rain.

I'm Lauren, a Michigan wedding photographer based in Grand Rapids, documenting weddings and elopements with a candid, documentary approach & an editorial eye. I believe your wedding should feel like a wedding. You deserve to be present for the people, emotions, laughter and little moments happening around you, while trusting that they're being documented beautifully. I'll guide you when you need it, step back when you don't & help create an experience that feels comfortable & natural from beginning to end. The result is a gallery full of intentional images that don't just show what your day looked like - they bring you back to how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
“From the very first moment we connected with Lauren at the Wedding Expo at the Grand Rapids Public Museum, we knew we were placing the photographing of the biggest day of our lives in the most-capable hands. Her professionalism, warmth, and incredible eye for detail completely blew us away right from the start. What she delivered wasn't just a set of photos, it was a breathtaking, emotional time capsule of our engagement shoot and wedding day that we will treasure for the rest of our lives. There’s something truly special about a vendor who becomes more than just a part of your wedding team - someone who feels like a trusted friend. From the moment my wife and I connected with Lauren, we knew we had found someone exceptional. Throughout the entire journey leading up to our big day, Lauren was a steady, joyful, and deeply supportive presence. We first worked with her offically during our engagement shoot, and to say we were blown away would be an understatement. The photos were stunning! So beautifully composed, natural, and authentically us. That experience only amplified our excitement for what she would capture on our wedding day. Lauren’s turnaround time is nothing short of incredible. Despite her demanding schedule (a testament to how in-demand and talented she is), she delivered our photos with unbelievable speed and care. We’re still in awe of how quickly we were able to relive the magic of our day through her lens. Her prep work leading up to the wedding was flawless. Working seamlessly alongside our Day-Of Coordinator, Lauren helped us map out a photography timeline that not only made the day run smoothly but also allowed us to be fully present. Thanks to her thoughtful planning and attention to detail, our First Look and post-ceremony portraits unfolded effortlessly - a massive weight lifted off our shoulders. And then came the photos. Every single one radiates with emotion, artistry, and intention. Lauren didn’t just document our wedding, she told our story in the most breathtaking way. Her talent behind the camera is undeniable, but it’s her warmth, intuition, and joy that truly set her apart. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only at the top of their craft but also brings a glowing, calming, and genuine energy to your wedding day, look no further than Lauren. We feel endlessly lucky to have had her by our side - and now in our hearts.”

“I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Ali! She reached out to me on Zola and I am so glad she did. I was impressed with her portfolio and I really loved seeing how she would capture little moments in the weddings she had done. We set up a video call before booking and we clicked. She is very calm and helped with my pre-wedding nerves. She worked with us on a payment plan and she was always very quick to respond to any of my questions. She really listened to what we wanted. She got to the venue early to scout out different shots and came to check in with me a couple of times before we even began taking photos, which I did not expect but was very sweet and considerate of her. When we were taking photos, she really helped to guide the more “posed” photos but she also captured a lot of beautiful candid moments. We had so many guests come up to us and compliment her and that was before we even got the photos back. She sent us our sneak peeks the next day and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. She captured so many beautiful moments and her style is exactly what we wanted. Nothing felt “overly edited” just perfectly genuine. I cannot recommend Ali enough. I cannot wait to see the full gallery of photos because I know they will be nothing short of perfect.”

From the beginning, the price was great and the photos looked promising, so we decided to go for it and we are so glad we did! Turned out to be well worth it. Michael connected with us immediately, assured us he would make it happen and not to worry about a thing. We communicated over the phone and through email, he always answered every time I called, ready to listen and note my requests. The day of, the photographer Michael booked for us, Michaela Gardener drove hours to be there for our special day and even brought an assistant. She was willing to be hands on all day, treated my children like family and even stayed late to capture extra shots. Her experience shows from her work. Both the DJ and Photographer arrived early to set up and are experienced business owners. The photos are great quality and high resolution. They came out so beautiful, even with our imperfect family and little ones running around, she somehow made us look great. We are so satisfied and blown away by how the pictures turned out that every little thing that didn’t go as planned that day just melted away because the photos just perfectly captured our love and the great time our guests had. Wedding planning can be very stressful and chaotic and so I’m very glad we found someone to make this part of the wedding easy. All within our budget.

Soul Stories is our passion project in the truest sense, it was born out of a love for the moments words can’t quite hold — the quiet glances, the laughter between vows, the way love feels when it’s seen rather than said. By day, Sena (lead photographer) is a nurse and Shelton (lead photographer) works in cybersecurity — and as a couple, photo and video has always been the way we remember and cherish life. Documenting love, celebration, and the moments that matter most is something we've always done naturally. We simply decided to share that gift with others.

Awarded Best of Zola
“As I finally begin to write this review, my mind does not know where to start. Sena and Shelly have made it hard to find such meaningful and beautiful words to describe just how wonderful they are. Having phenomenal, near & dear photos of my wedding day was extremely important to me and as I spent hours meticulously researching and thumbing through every vendor– photographers ranked at the top of that list. As a bride, Sena was my main point of contact throughout the whole process and I could not thank her enough for being my hype man and being SO understanding. Furthermore, I truly feel that the attitude of your vendors can change everything when planning your own wedding, and Sena was such a delight to chat with. From over 300 days out to the big day, she came with such a calm yet electric energy that was contagious! She would've been my bridesmaid if she wasn't holding the camera and I mean that from the bottom of my heart! Again, knowing that your vendors want to be there for you and not make a quick buck is so relieving. They understood my budget and worked hard to make it happen without underselling themselves, or giving me less than what I wanted. Seeing them both be so excited to capture such a day meant the world to me. seeing the sneak peak after, not only can I obviously see the love poured out between my husband and I, but I can see their love poured out unto their craft. Each photo has so much love and energy behind it. To brag some more about how phenomenal these people are, Sena and Shelly even went out of their way to pick up my bridal flowers and make the bouquet for me! They adjusted my veil at my ceremony, helped me put my heels on, offered to get me my food at the reception, even asked the bartenders for dish soap when my dress got pollen on it, and proceeded to scrub it off my dress! I'm sure I'm missing some things, too! Okay, okay, if you’ve read this far, I think you're thinking what I’m thinking and that’s: HIRE THEM! Honestly, (although I don’t think I have to) I beg of you, hire them. These are great and amazing people and I cannot wait to see where else their photography takes them. Sena and Shelly create photographs for generations to come, timeless, elegant, warm and thoughtful. I could not have asked for better. “Most beloved, if God has so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4‬:‭11‬ ‭CPDV‬‬”

“I didn’t even want a video at first but thank God I changed my mind. The photos and video together make me so happy. Our wedding was October 2022 and it still feels like yesterday when I watch the highlights. Seriously, 10/10 experience.”

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

“From the moment we met Isaac, we knew we were in the best hands. He has an incredibly calming presence and a natural way of making you feel comfortable, which meant we were able to be fully present on our wedding day. Our Sonoma farm wedding unfolded with a gorgeous outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner reception, followed by music and festivities in the barn. Isaac captured every moment with such artistry and intention. The images feel effortless yet elevated as every frame tells a story, from quiet, emotional moments to the joy and movement of our guests celebrating into the night. The photographs from our first dance in the barn truly took our breath away. The way Isaac used the natural light, textures of the wood, and atmosphere of the space made the images feel cinematic and timeless. Working with Isaac was seamless, professional, thoughtful, and genuinely joyful. Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day exactly as it felt. The images are beautiful, emotional, and full of life. We are endlessly grateful for his vision and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone dreaming of a wedding that feels both authentic and artfully captured.”

Hi! I’m Carly :) Your new bestie behind the camera! I am located in Traverse City, Michigan, where I was born and raised, but I am always happy to travel for weddings + elopements. I fell in love with taking pictures at a very young age when I received my first film camera as a gift from my parents and have been obsessed ever since. My goal is to create timeless images that you can cherish forever, images that freeze your favorite moments in time. I’m not just a photographer, but a visual storyteller for loved-up souls.

“Choosing Carly was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish! We were pretty nervous going into our engagement shoot because neither of us had much experience in front of a camera, but she put us at ease right away. She gave such clear, natural direction and turned what we thought would be an intimidating process into something effortless and fun. On the wedding day itself, she was nothing short of incredible. She worked seamlessly with all of our other vendors, remained amazingly flexible and adaptable as the schedule shifted, and made the whole day run perfectly. To top it all off, we received our full photo gallery within just two weeks of the wedding, which was mind-blowing! Her talent, warmth, and professionalism are unmatched, and we could not recommend her more highly.”

ignited Photography is a husband and wife photography team specializing in on-location natural and studio lighting. With almost 20 years photographing weddings together, we are passionate about love, life, weddings (and each other)!

“If you are in the hunt for a wedding photographer look no further - this is who you want! We received a recommendation to check them out from a work colleague and I am SO THANKFUL because Kevin and Heather were truly the nicest couple we could have imagined working with for our big day. I'm extremely type A and a planner and loved how organized they are. From the initial video chat, to the engagement session, and ultimately our wedding day, everything ran so smoothly. My husband is not a big fan of having his photo taken and they made him so comfortable! They also had a photo preview of some sneak peeks ready for us on the wedding night which was so unexpected and such a nice surprise! I could not have asked for a better experience and am excited to work with them again in the future for family photos or other opportunities. Picture included of us with them at the end of the wedding night.”

“From our first conversation, Marisa made us feel heard and she really understood what we wanted for our wedding day. She was incredibly thorough during the planning process and answered every question we had without hesitation. On the day of the wedding, Marisa and Robert made sure to capture all the photos I had shared from my Pinterest board and paid close attention to lighting for our outdoor shots—the pictures came out stunning. We got the sneak peek photos back super fast, and honestly, we couldn't believe how beautiful they looked.

Hi! I'm Claire, owner of Copper Stitch Photo Co. and lover of all things weddings. I'm a documentary style photographer that thrives on intimate moments and capturing your day authentically. I'm also a 2025 bride so I know exactly what it's like to be planning a wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
“Claire’s communication was impeccable, I never felt that I had any questions because she would answer them before I knew I had a question! She is wildly professional yet fun. Both my husband and I are not super comfortable in front of the camera unless we’re being ourselves and silly, Claire was happy to work with that and allow us to have more fun and be ourselves (hello awkward family photo style pics!). The day of the wedding she not only arrived promptly, but was bright eyed and bushy tailed. Of course we ran behind, but she was great at keeping things calm but also making sure no time was wasted. 12/10 recommend Copper Stitch Photo Co.!”
