Lynzee Harrison Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $5,500
  • Serves Sanford, MI

I believe love and light are two of the closest things we have to real magic. We're so fortunate that photography utilizes both. Art, storytelling, and connection have stood the test of time throughout human history. We were designed to create, entertain, and love. I approach each wedding day like it's the most important love story that will ever be told. Because to you, it is. I approach most of the day with a photojournalistic approach. Then during portraits I'm skilled at both posing you beautifully enough to be an editorial piece and prompting you in ways to bring out cinematic romance.

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Lynzee. From the very beginning, during both our engagement session and wedding, she made me feel so comfortable, like we had been friends for years. She is such a warm, welcoming presence, which made the entire experience feel natural and stress-free. She immediately understood my vibe and vision and brought it to life perfectly. On our wedding day, she worked seamlessly with all of my other vendors and was incredibly helpful in creating and managing our timeline. Even when we got way off schedule, she handled everything with total ease and professionalism. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and I always felt confident knowing I was in good hands. These are photos I will cherish forever, and she was truly worth every penny. If you’re considering booking her… do it. You will not regret it!

My husband and I hired Edgar (Anchor Studios) as our photographer for our wedding on July 7, 2024. He did an amazing job!! Since we started working with him for our engagement pictures up to the wedding and after, he has been great at communication and very professional. He went above and beyond by helping us create a timeline for our wedding because didn’t know how weddings usually go. He worked so hard on the day of our wedding to get the best shots, and was very kind and helped us a lot with organizing order of events. He had great ideas for poses and was very mindful to get all the pictures we wanted with family members and bridal party. And even better than all of this, when we got the pictures, they came out amazing!! It’s very clear that he put a lot of hard work into making them look incredible. He is a very talented and skilled photographer. We were blown away by how they turned out! We are very thankful for how hard he worked and how great he made the picture look! We highly recommend him!

We had a great experience with Amative Creative for our wedding! One thing that really made them stand out was that they offer so many different editing styles to choose from, so we were able to pick exactly the look we wanted. They also got our photos back to us super quickly—about a week after the wedding—which was such a nice surprise. The photos turned out beautiful and they captured all the big moments and some great candid shots. I especially love how cool the dance floor shots turned out. We received tons of compliments on the pictures! Highly recommend!

I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

13 years of experience has created an obsession with wedding photography. It's a day that encompasses almost every type of photography. Documentary, portraiture, the art of curated cinematic moments... I fell in love with the challenge of doing it all. Not everyone is cut out for the emotional and physical rollercoaster of wedding photography, but I'm glad I am!

I'm lucky to call Kelsie not only an amazing photographer but also an incredibly good friend. We met at a wedding where she was photographer and from there it was destiny. She's now our family photographer and she produces some of the most amazing looking photos--which is a not easy to do with my high energy kiddos. I've never been disappointed in her product and her wit, charm and humor also makes the session so much fun and full of laughs! You won't be disappointed in Kelsie's services and if you are like me, you will find yourself using her for all of the big life stages throughout the years!

  • Serves Sanford, MI

Capturing and documenting the fleeting nature & intricate details of your life and love—woven together with intention + grace into a nostalgic photo collection. I strive to tell your story and preserve your legacy with wholesome imagery you will lovingly cherish and share with future generations.

My husband and I decided to have a very intimate wedding on Mackinac Island with just immediate family. We had about 6 weeks in total of planning and my ability to find a photographer on the island was not fruitful. I actually found Kristin on a Facebook page for elopements and emailed for time to call. We had a FaceTime call within a couple days and at that time I had 2 locations we were looking into. Kristin was very understanding given that a location had not fully been secured but once we decided on the day and place (Wings of Mackinac Butterfly House) she was able to help us bring our wedding day and photo ideas into life m. She took both digital and film photos that were stunning and were just the icing on the proverbial cake (we actually got ice cream cones as our wedding dessert)! Kristin has always held fantastic communication leading up to our special day and has always gone the extra mile to assist in anything we needed. Since our wedding, she has also taken beautiful newborn and family photos for us and we cannot be happier with the outcomes! We treasure her work and friendship and we look forward to more captured memories with Kristin!
