Awarded Best of Zola
Our videographer, Jonathan, was professional and meticulous. He paid great attention to our requests and what we wanted for our video. We also had the flexibility to choose a song from a large platform, which made the video feel more personal. As a bonus, Jonathan has an amazing voice and even sang us a song during our karaoke session, which was a fun and memorable touch. One thing to note is that the original package does not include revisions, so a few scenes we felt less satisfied with were included in the final video. Overall, we appreciated Jonathan and the Originals team’s dedication and creativity, and the experience was a positive one.

Hi!! I'm Jen, the heart and soul behind Jen Marie Imagery! I'm passionate about creating unforgettable memories through my lens. Beyond being a dedicated photographer, I'm a coffee lover, taco enthusiast, concert junkie, Netflix aficionado, and proud pet parent. My journey with photography started as a childhood passion, using up all my mom's film on disposable cameras. What began as a hobby transformed into my life's calling in 2016 when I booked my first wedding. From that moment, I knew I had found my true purpose. There’s nothing I love more than photographing love!

We truly could not have asked for a more incredible wedding photographer. From the very beginning, Jen and the second photographer made us feel so comfortable, confident, and genuinely cared for throughout the entire process. They captured every single moment so beautifully — the big emotional moments, the tiny details, and all the candid memories we never want to forget. Jen sent sneak peaks the day after and I was obsessed! We’ve already had so many people compliment our photos, and we honestly will treasure them forever. If you are looking for someone who goes above and beyond and truly pours their heart into their work, Jen is your girl! We are beyond grateful and cannot recommend her enough!

  • Serves Lapeer, MI

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!

Hi, I'm Kendall, a portrait and wedding photographer based in Fenton, MI. 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.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kendall is a phenomenal photographer and vendor to work with. She is so talented and natural behind the camera. My husband and I are not the most camera-confident people, but she made both of us feel so relaxed and poised the day of our wedding and our pictures show it. She is so tremendously gifted and professional to work with. I’ve looked at our sneak peaks 100 times since getting them and each time I am still speechless at the creativity and raw emotions she was able to capture on our day. They always say the photos are all that are left of your wedding and they are right; she captured them so eloquently and exquisitely, they’ll be something we will cherish forever.

Hi There! I'm Marci... photographer, nurturer, and lover of life. You'll find me taking photos, traveling, in the water or preferably doing all three. I've been a full time photographer since I graduated from UMich and absolutely love what I do. Weddings are my happy place. I'm both calm and fun. I take my job seriously, but wedding days are a ton of fun and so I have a good time too... being creative, bonding with clients and enjoying capturing love stories. I think the joy I have for life is reflected throughout my photos. As one of my clients put it, "It’s wonderful energy to be around someone that loves what they do."

What can I say? Working with Marci was a blast! She was laid back, fun to be around, professional, on time and very helpful. She’s worth every penny. Because we were ahead of schedule, we were able to take photos at a cool park close to our reception venue. The photos were so fun to take and she really got us into it. I’m certainly open to hiring her again for future events!

We were so lucky to have Katelynn as our photographer! She was truly amazing to work with! We found Katelynn through a friend who had previously booked her for her wedding. Wedding photos were really important to me and I wanted memories that we could cherish for the rest of our lives. After seeing her work, we knew that we wanted her to capture our wedding day! She made coordinating locations and poses stress free. We had a large bridal party and were a little worried about pictures being chaotic, but Katelynn was so patient with everyone and made it look like a breeze! Her kindness radiated all day and our families could not say enough good things about her. She was so great at making us feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera!

My name is Erin Oginsky and I am the owner and photographer behind EJO Photography. I first learned how to use a camera in 1999, when I took a photography class in college. Since then I have loved taking pictures, but did not start taking photos professionally until 2008! Since then I have learned and grown as a photographer. I love photographing weddings, engagements, and families. In addition to photography, my passion is my children, my husband, and the non-profit we run, Mission 25.

Awarded Best of Zola
I have been in the wedding game for many years. I have seen it all. I have worked with all types of people. I want to give my honest opinion about this company: E.J.O. is absolutely top notch. The last event that we worked together was to say the least a very demanding wedding that required us to all be on our A games. Let me put it this way, a lot of photographers would have probably walked out due to stress and time constraints. EJO held it together, controlled the situation like a pro, and absolutely NAILED it! The event went off without a hitch. Without such a professional company working alongside mine (at Rockstar Weddings), i’m honestly not sure how things would have turned out if they had hired someone different. I personally was shooting video that day so I literally was with the photographers from EJO nearly the entire event. I cant recommend EJO enough. You get what you pay for in this industry. Highly recommended!

I'm all about balance, so I'm the perfect combination of organized and flexible, proactive yet not overbearing, knowledgeable but not bossy, and a comforting presence both with and without a camera in hand. When you hire me, you get someone who genuinely cares about comparing photos of our dogs, sharing recipes for dinner, and listening to your book recommendations.

I hired Madalyn for my wedding in 2020, and have since recommended her to every bride I've met! No one in my family was necessarily comfortable in front of the camera, but Madalyn has a way of calming people and getting them to relax. We have beautiful posed photos from our wedding, but some of my favorites were the natural, candid shots! Additionally, she is always responsive and timely; she delivered sneak peeks of our pictures just days after our wedding, and the rest of our photos came exactly when she set the expectation for delivery. If you're looking for a vendor who is personable, calming, and kind, she's your gal!

Michigan-based wedding, elopement & lifestyle photographer. I call my style naturally posed/documentary. My galleries are filled with both artfully posed photos and candid moments. I will be your biggest hype woman (:

I found Heidi Koerber Photo scrolling through instagram and it ended up being the best vendor decision we made for our wedding. Heidi had great communication - she responded thoroughly and thoughtfully to all my emails and texts, and was so incredibly helpful every step of the way leading up to the wedding. She helped me tweak and finalize my entire wedding timeline, and I would not have gotten through my wedding day without her calming voice and guidance. Heidi's photos are beautiful, thoughtful, unique, authentic, and joyful - her work truly speaks for itself. She is the sweetest, and booking her as our photographer was a decision I would make over and over again.

I love capturing the moments that matter most, from the first look to the last dance, and telling the story of your day through photos and video. I see myself as an extended family member on your wedding day, bringing a calm presence, jumping in to help, and making sure you feel supported every step of the way. For me, it is all about starting families, sharing your joy, and creating timeless memories you will cherish forever.

We received our photo gallery and were in such awe. I knew when booking with Aaron that he had the photography style we were looking for - but getting the photos back exceeded all expectations. It was also such a breeze working with him. It had felt like we were working with a close friend that was able to allow everyone to relax and truly look candid and enjoy the day. I went into this not really having a shot list and Aaron and his team delivered everything I didn’t even know I needed! I could not recommend Daniel’s Portraits enough and we will definitely be booking with him again in the future!

The quality of their work is truly outstanding, and the photographer has an incredible eye for the most flattering poses. We've only done our engagement session so far, but the results were amazing - she made us feel so relaxed and comfortable, and the pictures came out beautifully.

HI! I’m Mel. I’m a wife, mother, want-to-be chef, and the creator of Mel Anne Photography LLC, specializing in Detroit Michigan based Wedding and Portrait Photography Services. My mission is create beautifully authentic images, that take you back to a moment in time. I love timeless imagery with a fun and upbeat feel mixed with classic romance.

Melissa was everything we could have wanted from a photographer and more! She is kind, knowledgeable, steadfast, professional, friendly, helpful, proactive, insistent, flexible, joyful, and all around fantastic! Her portfolio can speak for itself, I mean just look at those shots! They are timeless and capture the essence of each couple perfectly. What really drew us to Melissa though, was her unique ability to capture the candid moments. Looking through our gallery, there were of course the fantastic formal photos and more guided shots, but my absolute favorites were all of the other shots, the in the moment shots. She does a great job of capturing people in their best light, even when they’re not posing. Based on how flawless our engagement shoot with her went and how stressed I (the bride) was on the day of our wedding, we were a little nervous about the pictures. The engagement shoot was so smooth and we vibed together so well. The wedding day was very overwhelming and we both were worried that it would show on our faces. But every time Melissa was around (which was often thank goodness!), we were both immediately more calm. We had to pause looking through the gallery because they were too good and we were crying too much. 

We cannot recommend Melissa more! She is top of the line, folks!!!!! For what it’s worth, we are both 29, got married in East Lansing / Grand Ledge Michigan, and bought “The Ultimate Package” (which was super worth it!!)

We have now been using Denisa for our family photos every year for the past 3 years. She does a great job working with our kids and getting them to smile and I’m always impressed with how well she captures us. I would definitely recommend for your next photo needs.

Hello there! My name is Mariah Kasten and I am a Michigan Wedding Photographerphotographer. I love watching my couples interact and seeing their love for one another. I have absolutely fallen in love with couples, engagements, and wedding photography. As an extrovert, I find it so fun to meet so many couples and capture these moments in their lives. I would love to work with you and capture some beautiful moments in your life!

If I could give her more than 5 stars I would. Not only did she expertly capture all of the precious moments of our wedding day, but she was also very friendly as well as very professional. I loved how she made a wedding photo site for all of the photos and they were just edited so nice and quick with care. If you’re looking for a photographer for your wedding day, I would choose Mariah Kasten.
