“Mike Staff Productions Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was prompt, informative, and engaging, making us feel completely at ease and confident in their abilities. On the day of the wedding, Vesna and Taylor were not only incredibly talented and creative, capturing the most beautiful, warm, and artistic photos, but they also went above and beyond to make sure every detail was documented, including special photos involving my great grandmother's handkerchief and a touching moment with my grandmother.

A bit about me. I am a mom of two, Parker (sassy little girl) and Booker (strong little man). My husband and I had fur children before welcoming our little blessings into the world. Two German Shepherds (Hank and Bane) and one cat who basically runs the entirehouse, humans and all, named Benny. Everything I do in my life is for my family. Without them, I wouldn’t be able to share my love of photography with you all. I am so thankful for support from friends, family and complete strangers for support up to this point in my career.

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.

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Kendall! She has done two different photo sessions now for my husband and I, one of which was our super secret elopement and she freakin killed it!! The photos from the day were a huge priority to us considering it was just us and our two best friends, and I’m so glad to say that Kendall literally blew us away and everyone who sees the photos has complimented how wonderful she did. She took our first ever formal photo session together and even though we were walking into it feeling sort of silly and awkward, Kendall made us so comfortable and did an incredible job of capturing our genuine personalities. She is the absolute sweetest and she knows how to hype you up when you need it! We have found our lifelong photographer and I seriously could not be any more grateful. I recommend her to everyone and can’t say enough great things about her!”

Bold, unfiltered wedding photography for couples who want their photos to actually feel like them. You don't need to know how to pose. You don't need a Pinterest-perfect wedding. And you definitely don't need to tone yourselves down for my camera. I'm Katy, a Detroit wedding photographer capturing the big feelings, belly laughs, happy tears, packed dance floors, killer portraits, and all the beautifully chaotic shit in between. Most of my couples tell me they're awkward in front of a camera. Good. Those are my favorite people. My job isn't to turn you into models. It's to give you enough direction to look damn good while still letting you be yourselves.

I truly believe that a wedding day is as magical as the first snowfall — both fleeting and beautiful in their own way. As time goes by, those precious moments start to melt away, and as the saying goes, 'a picture is worth a thousand words.' There’s something deeply rewarding about capturing the perfect moment, but the real magic happens when you see the look on someone’s face as they experience that moment for the first time. It’s as if the photo becomes a timeless treasure, something they can hold onto forever, and that feeling? It’s truly indescribable!

“Absolutely amazing photos taken that I will cherish forever. Me and my boyfriend had dozens of photos taken that we now have printed out and made collages with and even turned into puzzles. Extremely professional and easy to schedule with. I could not be any happier with my photos. Usually I don’t care to have my photo taken but I am absolutely in love with these photos. I also love how inclusive Winter Lily Photography is. If you’re on the fence about having these photos done just do it you won’t regret it!”

I’m Julia - people always ask me how long I’ve been a photographer for and the cliché (but true) answer is for forever. I’ve walked through many alleys that led me to photographing weddings. I worked for the Field Museum photographing meteorites during my college years in Chicago, then worked as a freelancer in the automotive industry when I moved back to Michigan, and worked in a studio photographing everything from seniors to pets. It wasn’t until 5 years ago I decided I loved photographing weddings and couples. I feel like they’re all connected somehow. I'm lucky I found my niche and even luckier that I got to run with it.

“Buckle up, we are planning on writing an incredible review. To future brides & grooms reading our review: If you are going to do anything right for your wedding day (besides marrying your best friend), hire Julia as your wedding photographer!!! We can not stress enough how much Julia impacted our wedding day. First, she has your back. She helped us keep calm and keep our timeline on track. Julia had a great sense of reading the room. She was by our side when we needed her. Second, we had a BLAST! Julia kept our energy UP (she's a Leo, if you know you know). She had both of us laughing, smiling, and overall happy. Even our bridal party and family LOVED Julia's professionalism and how she conducts group photos. My bridesmaids were obsessed with her and plan on using her in the future. She's seriously that good. Third, her photography style was exactly what we needed. She is super knowledgeable about poses, lighting, background, etc. She was honest and explained why she had us do certain pictures. She took into account any preferences we had (standing on the left side rather than the right, mobility concerns, etc). Also, be ready to get creative! Overall, Julia is the best wedding photographer we could've asked for and so happy she got to capture our wedding day! Service we chose: 8-hour package with engagement photoshoot To Julia: thank you so much for making our wedding day amazing. You played such an important role in our day. We talk about how we miss you already and hope we can plan some photoshoots in the future!”

Communication was amazing- he doesn't take long to respond and is easy to get ahold of.
