“From the very first moment we stepped in front of Cheleana's camera, we felt like we were friends—her warm and welcoming spirit made us instantly comfortable. Over the years, we have shared nearly every significant life event with her, and we can't imagine our lives without our annual sessions! Cheleana always goes WAY above and beyond to capture the perfect shot, guiding us effortlessly throughout the process. It's like magic; you don't even realize it's happening! With her easy chit-chat and infectious laughter, every session feels like a joyous reunion. What stands out the most about our experience with Cheleana is her genuine heart and love for photography and people. Every time we work with her, it feels like we are her only and favorite clients. Nothing about our sessions feels fake or repetitive; it’s truly special. The artistry in her photos is astounding—it's hard to believe a magazine hasn’t snatched her up yet! Each image is infused with emotion, making them feel like art. The editing is tastefully done, allowing us to feel elevated and confident while remaining 1000% ourselves. Her candid shots are my absolute favorite; many of the photos she’s taken of my husband and me, as our family has grown, have brought me to tears. She has given me the priceless gift of slowing down time and cherishing this beautiful life! She is worth Every. Single. Penny!!! Working with Cheleana is an absolute delight. Her fun-loving and laid-back personality makes everything incredibly smooth and comfortable, even when working with little ones and occasionally reluctant husbands! She always has a great joke ready and a treat in her pocket—I'll let you figure out which one is for whom! :p Plus, she goes the extra mile by asking ahead of time if it's okay to give something to the little ones, which shows her thoughtfulness and professionalism. Honestly, we have witnessed her handle every situation over the years with extreme grace and professionalism—whether it was battling the heat on our wedding day while super pregnant or navigating crazy weather, or finding the perfect spot for our photos. There’s absolutely no room for improvement in our eyes; we just hope she never leaves us! Cheleana has truly become a part of our family, and we look forward to many more years of capturing memories together. Thank you, Cheleana, for everything you do! If you’re thinking of booking…. DO IT!! Trust me!!!! She will make you feel like you had the wedding of the century and you’ll want to stare at the pictures on your walls for decades!!!”

Hey there, I’m Angie! I’m a wife, mom of two adventurous boys, and the face behind Angela's Angles Photography, LLC . Based in Clio, Michigan, I serve couples and families all across the surrounding areas. What began in 2020 as a creative outlet quickly became my greatest passion. Through countless hours of learning and dedication, I’ve built a thriving photography business that I truly love. Capturing genuine emotion and real connection is what drives me. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.

“We could not be more happy with Angela and Kat!!!! They made our wedding SO simple and easy. I am such an anxious person and I hate getting my photos taken, but they made it feel so effortless! Kat was so uplifting and kind as well, such a big help on such a crazy day!!! She designed a perfect timeline for us and we were even a little bit early! I had her take out some time for my husband and I to relax and truly we didn’t even need it because we just felt so comfortable with them and it did not feel like a chore. Everything was so perfect and I could not recommend her more! We just recently did our family pictures with her and we had no doubts she would do amazing! She is amazing with giving directions to our 2 year old as well! It’s hard enough to try and get pictures with a toddler but again she just makes it feel so effortless. We will continue to get all of our family pictures from Angela! If anything I recommend getting the full packages with more photos because you are going to love them all!!!!!”

“Millennial Lens Photography LLC was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From the moment we first reached out, Amber was fast, personal, and incredibly effective in their communication style. Her passion for their craft was evident in the beautiful photos she captured that truly tell the story of our special day. Amber was our wedding photographer for seven or eight hours, and she made sure we were both feeling comfortable (my husband and I are both incredibly awkward at taking pictures) but she walked us through everything and directed us on where to go and gave us ideas on what to do. We even mentioned to her at one point months later that we were missing a photo that would be important and she ended up finding it for us later - I’m sure that wasn’t easy after looking over photos of pictures and finding one specific one! My husband and I are thrilled with the quality of Millennial Lens Photography's work and will cherish our photos forever! Highly recommend them to any couple looking for a wedding photographer!”

She not only did an amazing job and captured great photos but she is professional, has open communication and handles "issues" with grace.

“Samantha Lee Photography was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was extremely fast and detailed, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of, Samantha's positive attitude and fantastic time management skills were a huge asset - she got all of my groomsmen, who usually hate having their pictures taken, to smile and feel comfortable. I never felt rushed, and Samantha made sure to capture every photo I had imagined. At the end of the night, when her time was technically up, she noticed me dancing with my dad (who I don't have the best relationship with) and pulled her camera back out to capture that special moment. It meant so much to me, and is just one example of how Samantha went above and beyond. I will forever recommend Samantha Lee Photography to anyone looking for an amazing wedding photographer.”

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.

“Kendall Jewel Photography LLC was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the very beginning, Kendall maintained open and helpful communication, taking the time to understand our specific wants and needs. Their work is truly stunning, beautifully cinematic, and has an earthy and powerful aesthetic that feels so natural and not staged. We were blown away by the gorgeous photos from our engagement session, and can't wait to have Kendall capture our wedding day as well. Kendall's professionalism and talent have made this process so easy and enjoyable, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a wedding photographer who will beautifully preserve the magic of your special day.”
