Hi, I'm Abby Bontrager! Congratulations on your engagement! I have been doing bridal makeup for over 16 years in Portage, MI and I own The Beauty Lounge By Abby! I absolutely love making a bride and her party feel special, beautiful and confident on her wedding day!

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Abby enough!! She did such a spectacular job with my wedding hair. I am beyond thrilled with how it turned out. She was so patient with me as I constantly asked questions throughout the wedding process. She was great at communication, organized, prepared, and helpful. She even sent getting ready tips for my bridal party! She goes above and beyond and is such an asset. I know nothing about hair or makeup and she walked me through every step of the process with kindness and patience. She helped me improve my hair’s health before the wedding and walked me through the hair extension process so I could have the wedding hair of my dreams. I’m so grateful to have had Abby as a part of my big day and cannot thank her enough for everything she did!

We are a husband and wife, photo + video duo based in Michigan. We got married in May of 2019 and started capturing special moments in 2020. In 2023 we welcomed our miracle baby, Henry, after 18+ months of infertility. If there is one thing that becoming parents has taught us, it is how fast time truly flies and how important it is to freeze each moment, bringing even more meaning and passion to this little biz of ours. When we aren't behind the camera, we are soaking in every memory with our boy and our wild animals at home. It is such a blessing to us, that you are here. We can't wait to meet you!

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend this fabulous duo for photography and videography. Don’t hold back on adding videography, you won’t be disappointed. We felt like a priority and never felt rushed throughout the whole process. The engagement photo shoot was a fun experience in itself, they both seemed to genuinely have fun finding good shots which made it that much more enjoyable, even on a cold day. With the package we got an engagement video as well, literal tears first time watching. Magical. Not to mention everything they captured from the actual wedding day. Heather and Jordan made everything so seamless and stress free. Heather then took wonderful maternity on a windy day on Lake Michigan and then capture our little girl a few weeks later. Highly recommend!

Lindsay Elaine Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Portage, MI
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $7,800

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.

Lindsay is AMAZING! Seriously, stop researching and book her right now because she was an absolute dream to work with, is SO talented, and all our photos are stunning. Starting from the very beginning when we had our intro call with her, she was so kind, flexible, organized, and truly invested in documenting our love story. We used Lindsay for both our engagement and wedding photographer, and I can easily say the results of both FAR exceeded our expectations. She captured ALL of the special moments throughout the day in an authentic and beautiful manner, so now when we look back at them we feel like she captured our day perfectly. Here's all the finer details, if you are interested! 1.) Our biggest fear/challenge about hiring a photographer was working with someone who didn't make us feel comfortable or relaxed or someone who didn't know how to prompt us for posing. Lindsay was NONE of those things. She instantly made us feel so at ease from the second we met her and her prompts are so easy to follow and produced the best, most natural and authentic photos. 2.) The most helpful aspect of working with Lindsay pre-wedding was her STELLAR organization and responsiveness. Seriously, this girl is organized to a T and always responded to my (sometimes VERY lengthy) emails in a timely manner. She was always so patient with my endless questions, and even took time out of her personal life to preview our wedding photo location to pick out the best spots! How amazing is that?? 3.) Working with Lindsay the day of the wedding was perfect. She arrived to our getting ready location early to make sure she gave herself plenty of time to capture our details photos and followed the schedule perfectly the remainder of the day. She kept us on schedule when we needed it, captured all of our special moments, was prepared and organized, and followed our very detailed (and complex) family photo requests to make sure allllllll the different family combos were included. All in all, if you are looking for a kind, genuine, authentic, organized, talented, and professional photographer.....Lindsay is your girl. We could not be any happier with our experience working with her and the STUNNING engagement and wedding photos she produces. Lindsay honestly feels like she's become our friend and I'm honestly sad that our time working with her for our wedding has come to an end, but we plan on recommending her to everyone and anyone so hopefully our paths will cross again in the future! We love you Lindsay 3

  • Starts at $2,000

Creative Lens & Design | Cinematic Wedding Films & Photography Based in the heart of Southwest Michigan, we serve couples from Kalamazoo and Portage to the Lake Michigan coast and beyond. We are a hybrid studio focused on Cinematic Storytelling and Documentary-style authenticity. Whether it’s a sunset ceremony in St. Joseph or a high-energy reception in Grand Rapids, our goal is to deliver a narrative film that feels as real twenty years from now as it does today. No cheesy clichés—just your story, beautifully preserved.

My wedding at the Hayloft Theatre was a magical day, but Ken of Creative Lens & Design added a new dimension to it by capturing images with a drone. I was happy to step back into my wedding dress so that its beauty could be appreciated from an aerial view, but the video Ken was able to create with the drone was more than I could have dreamed of. The rich, vibrant colors of the red barn, the blazing orange leaves on the trees, and the various shades of blue flowers in the bouquet against my flowing ivory gown shimmered in the bronze glow of the autumn sun as it prepared to slip beneath the horizon. The video created by the drone footage added a beautiful chapter to my wedding story!

And when our wedding day finally arrived, Amy was prepared, organized, and ready to make our wedding dreams come true. Because of her, we were able to relax and be in the moment while getting ready to walk down the aisle. She sent me pictures throughout the morning to make sure everything was perfect.

Even our friends and family who don't dance were out on the dance floor tearing it up thanks to Mike. He did a great job mixing songs and keeping the energy high.

Absolutely loved every minute working with Jordan! She made me feel super comfortable, like we’d been friends for a long time, and absolutely slayed the makeup game. My sister, who has special needs, also got her makeup done by Jordan. She would not stop talking about how pretty she felt and it made me so happy!! Jordan is a pro and will exceed every expectation you have, she made me feel so beautiful for my big day and I will forever be grateful I chose her for my makeup artist!! 3

I had CK Catering for my bridal shower, and I couldn’t have been more impressed! They provided a wonderful variety of sandwiches, fresh fruit, and delicious finger foods that were perfect for the occasion. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the food! Everything was beautifully presented, and the flavors were spot on. They made the day even more special, and I highly recommend them for any event.

Working with Felt was a dream! It was so easy to plan a picturesque wedding there because the house and the grounds are gorgeous as-is. From unique details like walking paths to the lake and a piano for us to enjoy in the house, to the convenience and fun of having the ceremony, cocktail hour, photo shoots, and reception all at different beautiful spots right onsite, Felt was the perfect combination of relaxed and elegant and it made for an absolutely perfect and stress-free day.
