Erin Evangeline Photography

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,600
  • Serves Elk Rapids, MI

I'm Erin. I'm a photographer, traveler, and wide-eyed wonderer. I split my time between the Midwest and my bungalow near the beach in Oceanside, CA. My favorite pastimes include exploring Disneyland, watching Schitts Creek & Ted Lasso, and cuddling my dog. I have a loud laugh. I love cabernet franc, chocolate chip cookies, and I'm on a constant search for the best tacos in the world.

Erin is an incredibly warm person and immediately made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot. We had never done a shoot like this and were nervous and worried about feeling awkward, but her easygoing demeanor and natural instructions took all the stress off of us and we really enjoyed the experience. Erin has a detailed eye and a talent for capturing the natural beauty of the outdoors which was important to us. After our first great experience, we asked her to shoot our wedding as well on a cliff overlooking Sedona, AZ. She captured the scenery and golden hour lighting in breathtaking shots that were flattering of us and perfectly captured the grandeur of the red rocks around us. We will treasure the photos forever. Thank you Erin!

I'm Sophie, a documentary style wedding photographer passionate about capturing your wedding day's unscripted, candid moments through a relaxed and genuine approach. I act as a fly on the wall majority of the day, giving you the space to be fully present with your loved ones and feel all the feels as I capture it all. Don't worry about feeling awkward in front of a camera - I will help direct you through our engagement session and your wedding day portraits with light posing that will feel natural and fun!

Sophie was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She is so fun, funny, and real—just an absolute joy to be around on a day that can otherwise feel hectic. What really drew me to her was her background in the arts and the fact that she’s truly skilled in photography—not just someone with a camera, but a real artist. Her style is so refreshingly authentic; the photos aren’t overly edited or forced. Instead, she captured our day exactly as it felt—joyful, emotional, and real. Every photo tells a story, and flipping through them feels like being right back in those moments. We’re beyond grateful to have had someone so talented, genuine, and down-to-earth document the happiest day of our lives.

FêteFone / The Original Audio Guest Book

  • Starts at $149
  • Serves Elk Rapids, MI

FêteFone® is a modern twist on the traditional guest book—where guests talk instead of write. Using a stylish vintage phone, your loved ones can leave heartfelt, funny, and unforgettable voice messages that capture the true spirit of your celebration. Your big day goes by in a flash, but with FêteFone, you’ll have the voices, laughter, and love preserved forever. Imagine hearing your grandmother’s kind words, your best friend's inside jokes, or the excitement in your guests’ voices—all at the lift of a receiver. FêteFone helps you capture the magic of your celebration—the joy, the tears, the laughter—in a way you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

We were initially drawn to FêteFone because it was such a fun and different idea—but I had no idea just how meaningful it would become. Hearing our grandparents’ voices, our best friends cracking up, and even the sweet slurred messages from our dance floor crew—it all made us laugh and cry in the best way. The setup was truly plug-and-play. We now keep our vintage mint-green FêteFone displayed on a shelf at home, and every so often we pick up the receiver just to relive that joy. It’s not just a guest book—it’s a time capsule of love. I can’t recommend it enough.

Hey! I’m a wedding photographer based in Central Michigan, and for the past five years, I’ve been capturing love in all its joyful, emotional, beautifully real forms. My style is laid-back and documentary—I’m all about the soft looks, loud laughs, and in-between moments you’ll want to remember forever. Weddings are my favorite thing to photograph, hands down. When I’m not working, I’m probably out with my dogs, reading, or hanging with my husband (snacks included). I’d be so honored to tell your story in a way that feels like you.

When Gabbie’s taking your pictures, you don’t feel like she’s posing you. She takes the time to bring out that true smile that brings out your best side without feeling like you’re being told what to do or how to look. The photos you’ll get when you use her as a photographer will display who you are and expose the angles you never knew you would love.

I'm so glad you're here! My name is Lindsay, and I was put on this earth to capture all the special, in-between moments that tell your story. When I’m not trying out a new recipe, kidnapping a puppy to love on, or packing my bags for my next adventure, I’m spending time with couples telling their story in the most authentic way possible. If you’re not afraid of some PDA, or getting a bit dirty just to grab the perfect shot, then we’re probably the perfect match.

I would give her more stars if it was possible! Lindsay was absolutely AMAZING and a key part of our wedding. Getting married in the middle of covid was not easy, as we planned and replanned our wedding Lindsay took in all the changes and created a timeline that allowed us to take all the pictures we wanted and get back with plenty of time for the ceremony. She clearly knows what she is doing and gave us more beautiful photos than we could have thought of. Even from the beginning she made sure she knew us before we met and took time to ask the right questions to capture everything we didn't even know we wanted. On the day, she was always there to help hold my dress, fix my hair, and talk with my husband and I when we needed a break from the night. We can easily say that we felt like good friends at the end of the day. Her faith is inspiring and she shows great passion for her work. I have already recommended her to friends who are getting married and trust me when I say you always say yes when she asks you to take sunset photos.

These candid photos will live in your memories. In a time where moments are fleeting, our goal is to go beyond just a “photo”, but the story and emotion behind each frame. Documenting belly laugh, kiss and small glance is a story waiting to be told.

Bridgette is the most incredible photographer around. Not only is she insanely talented, she also brought a calmness to the whole day. She has such a great knowledge of wedding day timelines and acted as our wedding planner in helping us structure our day efficiently where we could take a lot of photos but also have so much time with each other and our guests. Our venue was not traditional and required a lot of moving around. Bridgette took it all in stride and helped direct us to stay on track! And her photos!! She captures incredible genuine images and has such great attention to detail. We look at our photos daily and love every one of them!

I’m Jenna. I take photos the way memories feel — honest, a little messy, completely yours. Based in Utah and California, but always down to follow love wherever it leads. I’m not here to direct a show or stage your connection. I’m just here with a camera and an eye for the quiet, fleeting things you’ll miss until you see them again — framed, printed, passed down. This isn’t about picture-perfect. This is about what’s real. Let’s document your story the way it actually felt.

From the moment we first spoke with Jenna Roden, we knew we had found the perfect wedding photographer. Her communication style was fluid, warm, and professional, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of Jenna's work was truly great - she has an exceptional eye for detail and a talent for capturing all the special moments in a charming and problem-solving way. Jenna gave us invaluable feedback on posing and seamlessly handled an unexpected challenge on the day, ensuring our photos turned out beautifully. We are thrilled with the memories she was able to preserve for us, and we highly recommend Jenna Roden to any couple planning their wedding.

I document love for a living, and what drives me is capturing authenticity in the moments that I am privileged to become a part of with my clients. I've been photographing weddings for over a decade. I know how to make you look good, and how to take away the "overwhelmed" fake vibe most couples feel and replace it with meaningful photos in 1/250 of a second.

Kay was referred to me by two different brides. I had seen their wedding pictures posted and reached out immediately. The turnaround time for receiving our photos took TWO WEEKS. I know brides that didn’t get their photos back for months. It was so special to be able to see them so quickly after our wedding. Especially considering the exceptional quality and attention to detail in each image. The final edits were flawless, and the photographer managed to enhance the natural beauty. I got every single photo I had put on my shot-list. But what stood out most was when we noticed that we didn’t get a picture of my parents alone and I asked her if we ever took one. She offered to photoshop a picture of them together and the final result was unbelievable. You would have never known they were not standing next to each other. My parents could not be happier with it. I wholeheartedly recommend Kay to anyone in need of capturing their special day. Their talent, professionalism, and commitment to delivering outstanding results make them a top choice. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

**I will no longer be paying for this listing, if you're interested in having me photograph your wedding, head to my website to take a look at my work and inquire through my contact form.** * 16 years of creating art from your love. My goal as your photographer is to serve you from beginning to end. You deserve to have images that take you back, that help you relive your day over and over again. These moments deserve to be remembered. We're here to tell your story in the most thoughtful, authentic way possible.

I’m typically not that comfortable in front of a camera but Aliscia gives a lot of praise which helped make me feel less awkward, like I was actually doing things right. She seemed to know when I was getting in my head too much and would think of ways to make me laugh and relax like have my husband tickle me or do something very random and silly, which in turn created some of our favorite photos! She somehow is able to capture true genuine emotions of a simple moment. Now, every time I walk by our photo wall at home I can’t help but smile and be taken back to those moments and feelings. This woman has a gift and is truly amazing at what she does!

Jacquelyn made us feel so comfortable, and understood exactly what we wanted from day one. Very professional, helpful, open minded and always quick to respond with any questions or concerns. I can honestly say that our wedding day would not have been the same without her, and for that we are forever grateful!
