I'm Chel, a Michigan-based wedding photographer specializing in meaningful celebrations, and candid storytelling. I photograph weddings throughout Michigan and beyond, creating images that feel natural, connected, and true to the people in them. I would love to share how I support couples throughout the planning process and on the wedding day itself. From Detroit estates and historic venues to waterfront celebrations in Northern Michigan, I document weddings with an editorial & heartfelt approach.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were referred by another photographer who was unavailable to do our wedding back in September of 2023 and it truly was a match made in heaven! Chelena is by far one of the most talented photographers we’ve ever worked with. Her professionalism, outgoing personality and eye for capturing the most amazing and creative photos is beyond what we could have asked for. She met with me a few different times before our wedding to get to know myself, my husband and each of our families. She took the time to truly dig deep and figure out our style and what we wanted. She is SO sweet and even a year and half later I still get teary eyed looking at all of our photos. She captured the day just how we wanted and I could not be more grateful for all that she did! I would recommend x1000!!

Our Original Weddings team in Georgia was great! All of them were very nice and seemed like they were enjoying capturing our special day. They captured so much of our wedding including many little moments and did a great job at being there but not taking up space. It never felt like they were in the way and they were great at directing us in moments we needed them to. We opted for the 4-12 weeks delivery and they delivered within 4 weeks on Christmas day which was a nice present! Overall was a great time with them and we are very happy with the photos and videos!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Promani for our April 2025 wedding for both photo and video and I was so, so happy with how everything came out. Both Taylor (photo) and James (video) were so great to work with. And it was so fun being able to see the photo and action shots that they directed for us, come to life in the final product. I was originally a bit apprehensive, given I wasn’t going to be able to see the direct work from my day-of photographer and videographer, but Benjamin the owner assured me that style and quality were trained to Promani’s standards. I really wish I could have told the anxious bride (me) that everything would be okay and turn out beautifully. Post-wedding, Benjamin was super responsive in working with me to make some final tweaks to the video and albums. I’m in the Boston-area and Promani has recently started expanding their work here. I would highly recommend - beautiful work, and super fair pricing for their photo/video bundle, especially for the quality of their work.

JLB Wedding Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (27 reviews)
Detroit, MI
  • 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
From our first interaction with Jeffrey, it was clear he would be kind, supportive, and genuine throughout the process. He had a creative and artful approach to documenting our celebration, and captured the day in unique and authentic ways. He made my partner and I feel completely comfortable and at ease. We love the documentary-style shots he curated of us exploring our favorite spots around town—it was like having a close friend there to document all the little moments. He never missed a beat, quickly curating effortless and natural poses that featured our relationship meaningfully and authentically. It's clear he loves what he does! I recommend Jeffrey 100 times over.

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.

From our first conversation with Jasmine, she made it clear she wanted to understand exactly what we were looking for. We had multiple meetings before the big day, and each one made us feel more confident about our choice. On our wedding day, she was fantastic about keeping us on schedule and made sure both of us felt comfortable in front of the camera. She worked fantastic with our videographer after just meeting him that day as well. She listened to what we wanted and guided us through poses so we looked our best in every shot. The photos turned out incredible, she truly cares about capturing your special day the way you envision and want it. We couldn't be happier with Jasmine (JSphotos) and feel so lucky to have found her. I would recommend her to every one that wants a stress free day and beautiful photos to remember such a special moment/day.

Awarded Best of Zola
A rave review does not do Shauna justice! She is beyond words unbelievable. I booked her very early in my wedding planning process and she was so accommodating start to finish (years lol). We did our engagement session with her in 2022, and she made us feel so comfortable. My husband does not like doing the cheesy photo thing but Shauna's images and her presence working with us.. Nothing cheesy about it! My husband thanked me for finding her during that session then again on our wedding day because she is in human form, a saint! Her personality is so friendly and makes you comfortable and her professionalism is levels above excellent! We just received our preview, and her website is laid out so nice and easy to navigate, can't wait to see the rest of her vision on our wedding day. Shauna, I've said it I think 10 times since our wedding day to you personally, but "WE" can't thank you enough for all you do!

Chettara T. Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
Detroit, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Chettara made everything so easy. She made us feel confident when deciding to book with her or not, answering questions and being completely transparent in packaging her services. Leading up to the wedding she only reached out when necessary, allowing us to focus on everything else. Day of, she was early to explore the venue, finding locations for later; in place for every planned and unplanned moment; and the most comforting and reassuring photographer. We were glad to have booked Chettara but once we received the photos we were over the moon with happiness in our selection!

Gold & Elm Wedding Photo 
Rating: 5.0 (8 reviews)
Detroit, MI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,699

Creating truly unique wedding photography starts with seeing more than the moment itself. Every location offers its own light, architecture, textures, and atmosphere — and I use those elements with creative composition to create photographs that feel distinctive and personal. By keeping the experience relaxed and embracing the natural rhythm of your day, I'm able to create images that don't just document what happened — they capture it in a way that feels intentional, immersive, and truly different.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were looking for fun, romantic, light & bright photos that are also timeless and true to color, and man did Rich deliver. Communication was amazing- he doesn't take long to respond and is easy to get ahold of. He was so easy to work with from handling a little last minute chaos with engagement photo locations to us replanning our entire wedding within three months. He made sure our engagement and wedding photos went without a hitch. Not only was Rich fun to work with, but he was a fantastic resource and we enjoyed the levity and expertise he brought to every step of the process. Our photos are STUNNING. I will recommend Gold & Elm to anybody who will listen!

Awarded Best of Zola
Breanne was so much more than our wedding photographer – she was such a steady, calming presence and truly became a friend throughout the entire experience! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond, even traveling to Chicago to photograph our engagement session in a place that means so much to us. On our wedding day, she kept everything on track, checked in on us, and stepped in wherever needed so things felt smooth and taken care of. She went far beyond what you expect from a photographer – helping with little things like fixing a veil or fastening a bracelet, and just being someone we could rely on throughout the day. That kind of care meant so much. Her work is just incredible. She captured the joy, the laughter, and all the in between moments in a way that brings us right back to how happy we felt that day. So many of our guests, family, and even vendors commented on how amazing she was and how well she captured everything. We feel so lucky to have had her as such a big part of our wedding and cannot wait to work with her again for future special moments!

  • Starts at $3,500

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.

We’ve only seen the preview photos from our wedding and they are beautiful! Each shot perfectly captures the emotions of the day and we’re so grateful to have these memories preserved. Amber truly felt like a friend from the start, which made the entire experience so comfortable and easy for us -- a couple who has never been in front of a camera together. She blended in effortlessly with our guests and we received many compliments from family and friends about how great she was. During the family photos, she was helpful with making sure everything went smoothly while kindly managing the "list" when others tried to jump in for a photo. We can't wait to see the rest of our photos and look forward to having Amber capture our next "milestone" photos. Amber, thank you for being such an important part of our wedding day and for capturing our day so beautifully!

  • Serves Detroit, MI

I’m an IT professional by day, a photographer by night, a mom & wife every second of the day. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m married to my soul mate and together we have two young, rowdy boys that we have LOTS of fun with. I grew up in Argentina and that’s shaped me in more ways than I can explain. I have a deep rooted connection to people & places and often wear my heart right on my sleeve. I am very ‘laid-back’ & focused when in a photo session. I do more looking than talking to make sure I get the vision just right. I provide specific direction when it’s needed and vague direction to get the intimate candids.

I had no idea our small, low-key wedding could look so incredibly beautiful. The finished photos ooze sophistication, refinement as well as fun! Not bad for a simple courthouse wedding! If you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further. Genevieve did everything she could to empower and coach us into really just feeling like our best selves. At no point did we feel self-conscious. We will treasure these photos forever. Thank you, Genevieve DeVries Photography

It all started for me back when I was a teenager, taking pictures of my little sister with my first camera. I remember her running around, playing, making faces, and giggling. At that time I thought to myself, even as a child, that moments like this are so short and that I want to capture this exact moment forever in my head.

Hands down, the best thing I did was hire Anastasia to photograph my wedding. She has such a good eye for beauty and elegance. She was professional, organized, and so easy to work with. I trusted her completely, and boy, did she deliver!

  • Starts at $6,500

With a passion for blending editorial sophistication and candid spontaneity, I have honed my craft over the last 6 years, capturing the laughter, tears, and all the tender moments in between. The commitment I make to you extends beyond photography. My meticulous approach begins with anticipating your needs even before they arise, ensuring a seamless, elegant experience. I hold the value of family close to my heart, treating your loved ones as if they were my own, collaborating harmoniously with your vendors, and providing clear communication to ensure your day unfolds flawlessly.

If you're looking at these reviews, I am assuming you are interested in booking Kayla as your wedding photgrapher, and all I have to say is DO IT. Kayla is amazing. She photographed both mine and my brothers weddings. Here are a few things I loved most about having Kayla as my photographer (from a bride)! 1) stress free. Kayla asks for your input and list of wanted photos weeks leading up to the wedding. She then creates a list for day of and takes care of the rest. I did not have to do a single thing managing what photos I wanted the day of my wedding. It allowed me to really enjoy the moment and be present (which is exactly what I wanted). 2) natural candid photos. Kayla does an amazing job of getting your natural smile in photos. I loved my photos. 3) SO many good photos. Kayla provided us with SO many photos to choose from. This allowed me to print off a variety so I didnt have the same few photos all over my house. 4) Comfort. Kayla did an amazing job making me and my husband feel comfortable day of and in the photos. 5) made my vision come true! With both venues we booked, I had a vision of wanting to use the entire venue to allow for different photos opportunities. One of the ideas I had were 'getting ready' photos with my husband in the kitchen. Kayla made my vision more than come true. These are some of my favorite photos she took, and allowed my husband and I to spend time together before walking down the aisle. I am a very picky person, but I would do everything all over again the same exact way for my wedding, including having Kayla as the photographer. I could not recommend Kayla enough!

We are a husband and wife team that recently just planned our own wedding on our 10 year anniversary so we know what it's like to plan a wedding! We have built quite the life together and our lives revolve around this business and our 2 pups, Pablo + Pedro. We love sushi, iced coffee, ultra-zero monsters, trying new pasta joints (ok, more so Ashley), Breaking Bad, and anything from Kid Cudi. I (Ashley) am the main point of contact for our couples and oversee the majority of the back end work while Austin shoots the weddings with me. It's so fun to be able to do this together!

I am absolutely obsessed with the photography for our wedding. Diffuse Media did an incredible job not only photographing our day, but also assisting with building timelines and countless other things. Their communication was incredible, and they did such an amazing job making my fiancée and I (both people who normally hate being in front of a camera) comfortable. Highly recommend!

Hey! Hello! What's happening? I'm Erika, owner and lead photographer of It Clicks Photo. I love learning about your love story, how you knew your significant other was the one, and any embarrassing stories you two have endured over time. I'm sure I have a few I feel the need to tell you about, too! I'm a very accepting, down to earth lady who values and appreciates your authentic- straight to the core- self. Capturing your wedding day fills me with life, and makes me feel all butterfly-ish and bubbly inside. Can't wait to meet you both! (PS- I love to travel! There isn't a place I won't go- honestly.)

Erika has been my favorite photographer to work with since we met a few years ago. I just love her work! As a DJ it is important to be able to work well with vendors. Especially the ones capturing the big day. It has always been very easy for me to work with Erika and her team so I recommend her every chance I get. I have noticed over the years that she is naturally a creative fun and easy going person which in my opinion is always a great quality for a wedding professional. I look forward to working with Ericka and the whole itclicks team for years to come.

I'm Manny Adeniji, a Detroit-based photographer behind Manny Adeniji Photos. I capture weddings, anniversaries, and engagements across Michigan with a style that blends candid, in-the-moment emotion with thoughtfully composed portraits. What I love most is the storytelling—the quiet glance before the vows, the burst of laughter on the dance floor, the tears during a toast. Those unscripted moments are the heart of your day, and getting to preserve them so you can relive them for years is what makes this work feel less like a job and more like a calling

Booking Manny was the best decision we made for our wedding. He's professional, easygoing, and genuinely passionate about what he does. From the pre-wedding consult to the final gallery, everything was seamless. The candid shots are our favorites—he has a gift for catching the real, unscripted emotion. Beautiful editing, fast turnaround, and a private gallery that was so easy to share with family. Thank you, Manny!

I capture the stuff that makes you stop, take a deep breath, and remember that moment. That thing that happened. Those words he said. Every once in a while, I'll get asked why I do what I do. It's not everyone's dream job to haul around a ludicrous amount of camera gear on most Saturdays….but it's been my dream job for a while. I mean a long while...since the days of film…and I get to spend my days capturing raw emotion and making some crazy awesome photos for people. It's a total thrill.

From start to finish, Michele was an incredible partner to us. Her energy and excitement brought so much to the planning process and she always made us feel like we were the center of her universe. Then, when it came to the wedding weekend, she was nonstop. We were so incredibly impressed with her and her team - they were everywhere, capturing everything. We don’t think a single moment was missed, and she went WAY beyond what was asked of her. We even got comments from family and guests about how amazing she was and how we were going to have a miserable time trying to pick what photos to hang around our house. Nothing ever felt forced and she completely matched our energy all weekend long. She was energized yet grounding at the same time, and it was exactly what we needed on a day full of both excitement and nerves. We only have a preview of our gallery so far, but we look at the photos every single day and we know this will not be the last time we work with Michele. We had quite high standards for our photos and would absolutely recommend her a million times over to any couple looking for their photographer.

Nearly 23 years later, I'm still obsessed with this art form and how it can preserve life's most precious moments.
