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.

Choosing them was the best decision of our entire wedding. I didn’t worry once about pictures or video because I trusted them fully. When I got everything back I literally sobbed. They caught moments I never saw, like my dad wiping a tear during the vows. The colors are stunning, warm but not fake. The way they caught golden hour shots of us holding hands looks straight out of a magazine. The video is beyond what I imagined, especially with the music choices. I loved that they included clips of our guests laughing and hugging us. My best friend keeps saying she wants to hire them for her wedding too. Every single guest I’ve shown the photos to says they are incredible. Honestly, they’re worth double what they charge. Truly unforgettable.

JLB Wedding Photography

Detroit, MI
  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,900

I started photographing weddings in 2003 and eventually left my day job as a designer to do photography full-time, but I’ve never been able to turn the designer off. In addition to photos, I create a few animated gifs from every session. My style is influenced by design principles, architecture, Edward Hopper paintings, plus films by Stanley Kubrick & Denis Villeneuve. While composing I put as much attention into the scene as the subjects. I prefer to cover events solo and do my own editing, posting teasers the next day. I’m based in the Detroit area but cover weddings all over America.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was immediately drawn to Jeffrey’s creative and artistic style — his portfolio stood out from every other photographer I came across, especially with the unique GIFs he creates. He did not disappoint! He was incredibly thorough throughout the entire planning process, taking the time to build a detailed timeline of our wedding day and reviewing it with us to make sure everything ran seamlessly. On the day of, he balanced his creative vision with professionalism — capturing stunning, artistic shots while also being amazing at posing everyone so we all looked our best. He’s also one of the most personable photographers I’ve ever met, making everyone feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. And his turnaround time is unbelievable — I had edited photos and GIFs to share within 12 hours, and our full gallery was delivered in less than two weeks. I couldn’t recommend him more!

Awarded Best of Zola
There truly aren’t enough words to express how grateful we are for Chelcie. From day one, she brought so much heart, warmth, and care—not just to her work, but to every interaction with us. It never felt like we were working with a vendor; it felt like we had a friend by our side, and that’s something we’ll always treasure. Chelcie came highly recommended, and now we understand exactly why. From our first call about the engagement shoot, her calm confidence and genuine passion for her craft stood out. She never overcomplicated things like so many others do—everything with her felt smooth and effortless. Choosing her as our photographer was truly one of the best decisions we made. From the engagement shoot to the wedding day, Chelcie consistently went above and beyond. She stayed true to her creative vision while embracing everything we hoped for. She listened, guided, reassured, and made us feel seen and supported through it all. On the wedding day, Chelcie (along with Sarah and Jeremy!) was a total rockstar. She came fully prepared, found the most beautiful locations, followed every request, and wasn’t afraid to try new things to get the perfect shot. She brought such a sense of calm and control—exactly what every bride needs. The 24 preview photos alone have us and our families raving. Chelcie captured exactly what I had dreamed of my whole life—even when I wasn’t sure how to put it into words. She just got it. We already can’t wait to see the full gallery (and to print hundreds of them!). Chelcie isn’t just an incredibly talented photographer—she’s someone who made our wedding feel even more magical. We’ll be forever grateful.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was lucky enough to have known Shauna through my sister-in-law, who spoke so highly of her and immediately recommended her to be our photographer when we began planning our wedding. It was important to us that our vendors knew us—either individually or as a couple—because every single person involved in our wedding day was there for a reason. From the moment Shauna arrived until the very end of the night, she made our day truly special. When she delivered our gallery, that feeling was only further solidified. She captured every detail of our day—even moments we never thought to include. She was our coordinator, our hype girl, our visionary, and our artist. Since sharing our gorgeous wedding photos, we’ve received countless comments about how incredible our photographer was. And even that doesn’t come close to describing her work. Shauna is truly a master of her craft, and we could not recommend her more. We love you, Shauna! Thank you for being such a special part of the best day of our lives. — Kody & Candis

I’m addicted to capturing who you are and your tale as it unfolds (the photojournalistic approach gives me life). I can occasionally be found sipping on bubble tea while indulging in Doctor Who, Sherlock, or Merlin marathons. Being diagnosed with Lupus at 16, I had to give up my ultimate goal of being a pilot in the Air Force. After my first year of Law School, I felt a bit empty and sat down to take a serious look at my life. I never saw it as a career path and pretty much wrote it off until 2016. I'm extremely blessed to be able to work with so many amazing people. Full: www.chettaratphotography.com/about

Choosing The Colony Club as our wedding reception venue was one of the best decisions we made. After getting engaged, we toured multiple metro and downtown Detroit venues with the hope of finding something elegant, classic, and timeless. Many were beautiful—but when we walked into The Colony Club, we immediately felt that this was the one. The entire style and vibe were exactly what we were looking for. We fell in love with every space—from Bar Charles to the breathtaking Grand Ballroom. We were also impressed by how much was included without extra add-on costs: tables, chairs, food, liquor, signature drinks, and more. It made planning easier and helped us stay within budget. From our very first meeting, we worked with Amber, our sales manager, and she stayed with us up until the week of the wedding. Amber was absolutely exceptional throughout the entire process. She was helpful, organized, flexible, and so easy to communicate with. We met multiple times at the venue, both with and without her, while making decisions for the big day, and she was always available to answer questions, address concerns, and offer thoughtful advice. Amber took care of coordinating with our other vendors, and I never once felt worried about how things would come together. Even during the stressful week leading up to the wedding—when I was emailing and calling constantly—she was patient, reassuring, and truly amazing to work with. Now the food… wow. It was exceptional! We still have guests raving about everything—from the appetizers to the entrées. The service and quality exceeded all of our expectations, and friends and family continue to tell us what an incredible wedding it was. From our very first appointment with Amber to the moment our reception began, we could not imagine having our wedding anywhere else. We will always look back on our wedding day with so much gratitude, happiness, and appreciation that we chose The Colony Club. If you’re considering this venue, trust me—you will not regret it!

The Eastern is a wonderful industrial, versatile venue in the heart of Eastern Market in downtown Detroit! This venue comes as a blank slate. So many different options as to how you can dress this venue up for a wedding/event. Be sure to use the few large wooden tables it comes with for your buffet table, hors d’oeuvre table, seating outdoors, head-table etc. Look no further than The Eastern or The Norwood for your wedding! I would recommend this venue to any couple looking to have a wedding in a unique spot, rather than a ballroom.

Where do we begin? Breanne was the sweetest, most understanding gal that you need on your side the day of your wedding. She took the time to clearly and kindly communicate from the very first inquiry email I sent her to giving her all on the day of my wedding. She made us feel comfortable and excited for the biggest day of our life so far! I knew from the way she carried herself with poise and grace, the way she listened and her exquisite taste that she would be the perfect photographer for our wedding day. If you appreciate classic and timeless photography, Breanne is the best in the biz. She exceeded expectations in every step of the process. Our photographs are so lovely. She put in so much care and work to deliver a quality product and service. Traditional, classic, timeless. The time and effort she put into capturing our day is priceless. The best part? She was our hype queen on the wedding day. That's something you can't buy and can't fake! Love ya, Breanne!

We cannot reminisce about our wedding without our wedding cake being mentioned. We had so many guests reach out to us after and ask where they got the cake from. My husband and I don't usually like cake too much, but her cakes are different. They are so good!! We live about two hours away from her cake shop, and we have been back for an order of cupcakes. She has so many flavors to choose from.

Kathleen and Melody made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! They easily brought my vision for my hair and makeup to life and helped my wedding party look gorgeous. Kathleen and Melody were also so sweet and made the long get ready process fun. Kathleen’s communication was on point too! I think I ended up emailing her more than any other vendor during the wedding planning process and she was always quick to respond, assist with any concerns, and adapt to unexpected last minute changes. I planned my wedding out of state and she even gave me some wedding planning recommendations that were not hair and makeup related! I cried a few happy tears throughout our wedding and my makeup did not smudge even a little bit. I highly recommend Kathleen to help you feel confident and look gorgeous on your wedding day!

The Gem Theatre was everything we dreamed of and more. The space itself is breathtaking and created such a unique, memorable backdrop for our celebration, but what truly set it apart was the staff. Julia was incredibly kind and attentive throughout the planning process—she answered every question we had (and there were many!) with patience and detail, which gave us so much peace of mind. On the day of, Miranda and Nathalie were amazing—calm, professional, and on top of every detail so we could focus on enjoying the moment. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the venue and the seamless experience from start to finish. We’re so grateful we chose the Gem—it made our wedding feel truly special.

We knew we were going to need a large space with our guest count but there was zero compromise on intimacy along with attention to detail at the Masonic. They offer several customizable options for bridal/ groom suites, catering, cocktail hour, and reception. The main ballroom looked stunning especially the two main chandeliers. Although the packages/ guidelines seemed rigid, we were eventually able to get most of the results we were looking for through some tinkering and back and forth correspondence. We were very impressed by the catering and waitstaff as the food received several compliments throughout the night. The only complaints on our end would be the temperature regulation of the main ballroom, which I'm sure comes with the building being older, and some areas of “hospitality”. There were a lot of things that were agreed upon in person but when it came time to be put into writing, those conversations were either misunderstood or backtracked. As I mentioned before, we eventually got to the result we were looking for but often received some resistance upfront.

I have always loved telling a story through photographs. Since high school I've been obsessed with taking pictures. That obsession carried on into my college ambitions and I ended up with a BFA in Photography from the College For Creative Studies. Since graduating in 2011 I started freelancing and soon wedding and portrait photography became my calling.

Amber did a great job at our wedding! The previews we've gotten so far are fantastic! She was really easy to work with, very friendly, and helped us get great shots that didn't feel too staged or unnatural. Her editing is great too and just what we were looking for! Highly recommend!
