I specialize in weddings and portraits, creating timeless editorial imagery filled with emotion and detail.

Hi, I’m Taylor Zinn! I’m a wedding and portrait photographer based in Harrison, Michigan, a cozy little town right in the heart of the mitten. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m soaking up the chaos and joy of life with my husband of 12 years and our two kiddos (ages 4 and 10). I live for salty ocean air, hot tea, and the dream of one day finishing my very ambitious book collection. Around here, The Office reruns are a staple (as soon as Bluey wraps up, of course). Let’s make some magic together.

If you’re looking for a photographer, please consider using Taylor. My husband and I were so lucky to find her for our engagement photos and wedding. Our photos turned out amazing! We will definitely be using her for all our special moments we want photographed!

Lynzee Harrison Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (6 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Bay City, MI

I believe love and light are two of the closest things we have to real magic. We're so fortunate that photography utilizes both. Art, storytelling, and connection have stood the test of time throughout human history. We were designed to create, entertain, and love. I approach each wedding day like it's the most important love story that will ever be told. Because to you, it is. I approach most of the day with a photojournalistic approach. Then during portraits I'm skilled at both posing you beautifully enough to be an editorial piece and prompting you in ways to bring out cinematic romance.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Lynzee. From the very beginning, during both our engagement session and wedding, she made me feel so comfortable, like we had been friends for years. She is such a warm, welcoming presence, which made the entire experience feel natural and stress-free. She immediately understood my vibe and vision and brought it to life perfectly. On our wedding day, she worked seamlessly with all of my other vendors and was incredibly helpful in creating and managing our timeline. Even when we got way off schedule, she handled everything with total ease and professionalism. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and I always felt confident knowing I was in good hands. These are photos I will cherish forever, and she was truly worth every penny. If you’re considering booking her… do it. You will not regret it!

Mary Shelton Media 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Classic style
  • Serves Bay City, MI

Featured on Anti Bride, Today show and Modern Luxury Magazine. The couple who appreciates the classic elements of a wedding, while still wanting to do something unexpected. The couple who values both the ease of the digital camera, and the iconic and everlasting impact of the film camera.

Mary was absolutely marvelous, start to finish. After I reached out she got back to me in less than 24 hours, and was so easy to communicate with in the months leading up to our wedding. We had a mixed wedding with traditional elements and a modern day twist. Mary went out of her way to learn about our culture so that she'd be able to capture all of the special moments. The day of the wedding she was our biggest cheerleader, made us feel so comfortable, and herded people in the right direction. Mary is so passionate about what she does, and her love for story telling bleeds over into everything she does. We're looking forward to receiving our pictures back soon, but from the sneak peak we got, her work is just magical. Highly recommend reaching out to Mary for your special day!

Although I can offer plenty of guidance in posing and setup, I have never lost sight of the importance of the candid and spontaneous moments. I strive to create balance between the two with every wedding I shoot.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wedding photos were one of the most important things to me on my wedding day, as it is most brides, because they capture the memories made that’ll last a lifetime. Working with Ryan eliminated absolutely any stress I had of getting the perfect photos. Starting with the planning process he helped guide our “day of wedding” schedule and added input to ensure we got every photo we wanted. During our wedding day he made everyone feel VERY MUCH at ease. Our bridal party was laughing, joking, smiling, having an amazing time and nobody felt they were put into awkward poses and that was evident when we received our photos back. The natural feel of every photo is priceless! Ryan went above and beyond and I could not be happier with choosing him to photograph our wedding! 20/10 recommend.

We are committed to helping people find their voice and tell their unique stories through photography! Every story is unique and it is our goal to get to know you so that we can document your story authentically. If you're looking for super posed photos of your day, that's okay but Im probably not the best fit! But if youre a fun-loving couple that oozes chemistry and can't keep your eyes (or hands) off of each other, and you want that captured genuinely, I'm your girl!

What can I say other than they are ‘outstanding’ having you both capture moments that we will look back on and treasure forever, is SO incredibly special. The dream team duo! I could not be happier with the end result and we would happily recommend them to anyone. I cannot recommend them more to be at the top of your guest list. Not only were the quality of the photos perfect, the communication was the BEST. They really helped move our timeline along and stayed on top of everything and really captured the day the way I saw it. I have never been so happy to have them on our team, thank you so much!

She was great with coordinating our timeline, identifying photo opportunities, and was very personable with everyone. Our videographer Austin was equally as amazing! He was able to capture all of our favorite ceremony and reception details throughout the day in our wedding video. You can tell they have a passion for capturing authentic moments, and the photos speak for themselves.

Hey, I’m Savannah! I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016, and somewhere along the way, it became the love of my life (well, one of them). I’m all about honest storytelling—documenting the real stuff, the in-between moments, the things you didn’t even realize were happening. My style is documentary with a creative edge, and my approach is simple: get to know you, show up with intention, and create photos that feel like you. If you’re into big feelings, warm tones, and someone who will hype you up while also fixing your flyaways, we’ll get along just fine.
