My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

“We told them we wanted natural, bright, and happy pictures, and they delivered exactly that. They even scouted locations beforehand to get the best backgrounds. During the wedding, they made us feel so comfortable that we forgot the cameras were there. When we saw the final results, we were speechless. It was everything we imagined and more.”

When asked when I first knew I wanted to be a photographer, it's hard to pinpoint a specific time, as I feel I have always had an eye for photography. From ripping up magazines, photoshoots with friends, the rise of Tumblr & Instagram, to taking a 35mm black & white film photography class in high school, going on to get my BFA in photography, and establishing my business - photography is truly in everything I do. I have been photographing weddings for over 7 years now. My work is a combination of unfiltered documentary, funky fashion editorial, and timeless fine art with a modern twist.

“Choosing Liv as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions my wife and I made for our wedding day. Liv was an incredible partner in planning out what we wanted for our big day, and captured it in a way that was more stunning than I could ever imagine. Liv is so kind, inclusive, and thoughtful with their work, and made the whole process easy and enjoyable. 6 years later, Liv remains a good friend of ours, and we've even taken gorgeous boudoir photos with them! I highly recommend Liv to capture your most important moments.”

Hey there, I’m Lauren! I’m a wedding and boudoir photographer based in Grand Rapids, MI. I believe your photos should feel like you—natural, honest, and full of emotion. No stiff posing here—just real, unscripted moments that tell your story. I’ll help you feel confident and comfortable, whether it's your wedding day, a boudoir session, or a just-because adventure. Outside of photography, I’m usually hiking, doing Jiu-Jitsu, or traveling with my wife. Let’s create something timeless and unforgettable together!

“We all know that hiring vendors for your wedding is stressful, but Lauren was stress free and my BEST choice! She communicated with me throughout the entire planning process and helped me iron out all the details surrounding the big day. As someone who didn’t use a wedding planner, this was huge for me because I had no idea what I was doing. Lauren helped me through this by providing some timeline templates, and answered any questions that came up (even if it didn’t relate directly to photography). Aside from planning, I knew I had made the right choice when we shot our engagement photos. Obviously the final product is why you hire a photographer, but Lauren provided high quality photos AND a great experience! My husband does not like his photo taken and will usually morph into a toddler who throws tantrums when asked to stand in front of a camera for too long - but not with Lauren. We had so much fun shooting with her, she really made it an awesome experience and my husband actually enjoyed himself! For our wedding day we had exactly the same experience, just on a much larger scale. We had a few last minute changes to the plan, and Lauren made sure that for every sacrifice that was made, that there was no detail or photo opportunity missed. She even spent 20 minutes in a broom closet with my mom and I to try to get my bustle buttoned before the dances. Everyone who interacted with Lauren on that day had nothing but great things to say about their experience working with her, and she was absolutely my favorite vendor on my wedding day. Our photos were sent to us before the date they were promised by and they are absolutely PERFECT. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives! Lauren is phenomenal at what she does, but more than that she is an amazing person. I truly feel like I’ve gained a friend by working with her and I will never use another photographer to capture my memories. I’m so lucky to have found her, and if you get the opportunity to do so I would 1,000,000% recommend it!”

“I am going to try and get off my soapbox for this review but I make no promises. Hiring Jessie Harris and Wildcrest Studios for my wedding was the single best decision I have ever made, except for marrying my husband. We had a small wedding, with a small budget, a very specific vision, no planner or coordinator, and no freaking clue what we were doing. From my first phone call with Jessie I knew that she was something special. She is experienced, organized, diligent, detail oriented, creative, kind, patient, and funny as heck. She truly listens to what you are hoping for and - somehow, despite all odds - she makes it happen. She LITERALLY threw off her shoes and climbed into Lake Michigan to get a shot of my husband and I on a dock at sunset. She kicked the groomsmen out of the area during our first touch because it was ruining the moment and I was too emotional and nervous to say anything. She drove across the state to shoot a pre-wedding reception for us. Alex, the second shooter, tied my husband’s bow tie for him before he walked down the aisle… and my brother’s… and my dad’s… and I’m pretty sure half the groomsmen’s bow ties too. She helped us create the timeline for our wedding day. She even gave us advice on what to pick for our first dance. And, to top it all off, she has provided us with the most unbelievable and stunning engagement, reception, and wedding day photos I could have imagined. Grateful doesn’t begin to cover how I feel when thinking about finding Jessie and Wildcrest Studios. Do yourself a favor and at least send an inquiry. Or don’t, and I’ll keep her all to myself :)”

I’m Anissa, a Grand Rapids–based wedding photographer and videographer with over 8 years of experience behind the camera. My approach is documentary at heart, focusing on real moments, genuine emotion, and natural interaction. I’ll guide you when needed but never over-pose or force anything to feel “perfect.” I know weddings can be overwhelming and expensive, so I aim to provide high-quality photo and video coverage with clear communication, transparency, and a calm, supportive presence from start to finish.

“Nissa J Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the beginning, their communication style was thorough, detailed, and empathetic - they truly took the time to understand our unique wedding concept and vision. The quality of their work is simply outstanding, with an artistic and professional approach that captured all the candid, special moments of our engagement shoot in a timely and responsive manner. Nissa and her husband have gone above and beyond to ensure our vision is met, even acting as a supportive bridesmaid-like figure throughout the process. We couldn't feel more at peace knowing our wedding is in their capable hands, and we are thrilled to have them capture our wedding. She traveled wherever we needed her to for these shots, and she even helped capture some other special moments during our shoot. We had lost our dog last Christmas and ended up rescuing his brother. She not only got us a beautiful family portrait together, and some collegiate graduation photos, but worked with me and my budget to include video after discussing our needs post-loss. Nissa J Photography is truly a cut above the rest. She treats you like so much more than just a paycheck, but like your bestie who wants nothing more than to be a part of your special moments and help you have the most beautiful keepsakes of them. I love my man, but she’s the best choice outside of him that I’ve made for this wedding!”

“It is really hard for me to put into words just how amazing Katie and her husband Matt are. We found them through our friends who used them for their wedding. We knew we wanted to do a destination wedding, and our friends had attended one the year before in Jamaica which Katie and Matt photographed. Because of that wedding, they chose them to be their photographer for their wedding in Michigan. After we saw the photos from the destination wedding and our friend's engagement photos we knew they would be perfect for us. After we saw our friend's wedding photos we knew made the right choice. Katie and Matt from the beginning were super helpful and were incredibly integral on our wedding weekend and day. When they arrived in Mexico, they met up with us and started to work immediately. They came to our rehearsal helping us decide where to put our camera for filming the ceremony and other helpful advice for the day of. They helped find the PERFECT first look location. On the day of the wedding, Katie and Matt were energetic and came ready to help put us to ease. Katie and Matt just have a way of making you feel at ease and then make you look like models. They did a great combination of classic portraits but a lot of candid photos mixed in (which were my favorites). They stayed through the our whole reception and the photos we got look out of a bridal magazine. We had a secondary shoot the day after as a Trash the Dress photo shoot, and the sunset photos we got look like post cards. The only down side of using Katie and Matt is that they gave us too many photos we want to print and get framed! Book them for your destination wedding (or Michigan wedding) and you will absolutely be making the best decision!”

Taylor Rae Photography

“For starters, we had Taylor do our engagement pictures- my fiancé and I never had professional photos together and to say I was nervous, was an understatement. Taylor drove over 3 hours to do our little engagement shoot and came with this little speaker and the most warming personality. She made us feel completely comfortable and the pictures really spoke for themselves. She directed us and really made the experience something so fun. Fast forward to a year later, we obviously used her for our wedding. Not only did she help with our wedding timeline, but was easy to communicate with, prompt with response times, and really was excited for our big day. On our wedding day, Taylor was a complete professional. We stuck to a strict timeline and were able to get all our pictures done, still have time to enjoy cocktail hour, and mostly be present during our reception. Taylor has the most vibrant personality and makes everyone feel special on your day. She will hype you up and the next moment have you cracking up. Our wedding photos were exactly what we wanted. The pictures really captured the essence of our wedding, the feelings we had throughout the day, and the love we shared with everyone there. I would and DO suggest her to anyone who asks. Taylor really was the best choice a couple could ask for.”

I'm Sydney, the photographer behind Sydney Marie Photography. Based in Grand Rapids and serving couples throughout Michigan and Chicago, I’ve been photographing weddings since 2012 and have documented more than 300 celebrations. My approach blends natural, candid moments with gently guided portraits to create imagery that feels timeless, refined, and true to each couple. From the first conversation to the final gallery, I provide a high-touch experience so you feel supported, present, and able to fully enjoy every moment of your wedding day.

“Aside from getting married, choosing Sydney Marie Photography was the best decision we made regarding vendors. Sydney kept us in the loop throughout the entire planning process - sometimes we needed that extra communication and we appreciated it more than we expected. We scheduled an Engagement Session to get to know her in person first and get comfortable with the camera and it was so worth it because not only did we get incredible shots, we also got to know her on a personal level which helped guide all conversations and interactions leading up to the wedding. Engagement photos came back quick, and we loved what we saw. She even came into town to do the venue walkthrough with us and see our hotel getting ready space which was above and beyond what we expected her to do. It didn't matter that she was based out of Michigan - she knew Chicago and the wedding scene so well, and was availble for anything we needed. Her years of experience shined through in helping us plan photo locations and curating the perfect timeline and shot list. We felt ready for the big day thanks to her. On the day of our wedding, she had this natural ability to capture moments as they happened while staying flexible enough to try new ideas we threw her way. She genuinely felt like part of our celebration rather than someone hovering in the background. Sydney guided us when we needed direction but mostly let our love and joy shine through in every shot. We are already obsessed with our sneak peek and cannot wait to see the whole album. We are moving to Michigan later next year (where she is located) and will definitely be keeping Sydney in mind for any future photoshoots our life may bring our way. Who knew a photographer could make or break how everything came together? Sydney was certainly our glue. We cannot recommend her highly enough.”

She captured our engagement shoot and wedding day in a way that felt authentically us—moody, real, and lived-in. With my type-Z family and the curveballs we threw her way (including a protest we had to work around), Ashley stayed organized & calm the entire time, keeping everyone on schedule without losing her cool. Her work is modern and high quality while still feeling genuine, and we couldn't be happier with the photos we'll treasure forever. We'd recommend Ashley to any couple looking for a photographer who truly listens to your vision and WILL deliver.”

Jaymi Joy Photo

“I'm absolutely in love with Jaymi and her photography service! Lengthy positive review ahead: Initially, I was drawn to her cinematic style of photography; often intentionally capturing otherwise candid moments lost to time and preserving them forever. I work in entertainment, with a degree in fine arts, so finding someone with a keen eye for color, composition, and bespoke style was important to me and my husband. Jaymi's photography style is very unique in the world of wedding photography. Like I mentioned, her style leans more like stills from movies, rather than structure portraits. Of course, we received many traditional photos (with a touch of Jaymi's style), but I absolutely adore the photos that feel more candid. Aside from taking lovely photos of us and our friends/family, Jaymi does a great job at taking photos of the wedding itself. With how much prep goes into florals, cakes, venues, and decor, having photos that capture the vibe from the day are really important. Her photos truly showcase the feeling of the day, taking advantage of the weather, air, nature, and placement of everything. Additionally, the editing she applies to the photos feels nostalgic, and creates a timeless look! Jaymi's process throughout our entire booking/prep/and big day was professional, attentive, loving, and thoughtful. I dearly appreciated that she wanted to get to know us as a couple, and incorporated that into her work. She checked in with us often before the wedding, making sure we were prepared and feeling good about everything. Most notably, Jaymi required us to fill out a very thorough document to help prep her as much as possible; from minor details about us as a couple to specific information about relationships/photo groupings. Additionally, Jaymi went above and beyond providing sneak peaks and the final photos. I was stunned with the volume of breathtaking photos we received, and the swiftness in sharing sneak peak photos post wedding! One of my favorite memories was driving home the day after our wedding, and going through the sneak peaks admits a 10 hour drive. All these things were something I really appreciated, wedding photos are very intimate and it's assuring to work with someone who cares as much about the photos as we do. Lastly, I want to compliment Jaymi as a person! She is incredibly kind, and really brings the 'joy' in Jaymi Joy. She was cheerful throughout the entire day, keeping things on track and making sure everyone was feeling great. Jaymi is flexible, understanding, patient, and above all else, caring. I truly cannot compliment Jaymi enough, and know she will treat every wedding with the same devotion she treated ours.”

Kaitlin Jude Photography

“Kaitlin was absolutely the best photographer we could have asked for! We are not big photo people and definitely don’t typically feel comfortable in front of the camera. She was so accommodating and if something didn’t feel right/like us she’d pivot to something else. Her photos are absolutely stunning and really captured the essence of our day!”

Hey, I’m Kaitlin 👋 I’m a Michigan-based wedding photographer here for the real stuff—messy happy tears, belly laughs, and all the in-between moments you don’t even realize are happening. My vibe? Laid-back, a little cinematic, and a lot of fun. Think of me as part hype girl, part third wheel with a camera, making sure you feel comfortable, confident, and totally yourself. The end result? Photos that look just as good as the day felt.

“Alexis was great from the start! She traveled for us for our engagement pictures in Ludington and to Bay City for the wedding. She had virtual meetings with us a few times to get the feel for our style and what we wanted. She even helped me decide on our engagement picture outfits! She always had suggestions and was easy to get ahold of too. She was so sweet too. Day of our wedding she had ideas of how to pose us but also took many candid shots too. Our guests loved her and she stayed a little later to capture something we requested during dancing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, she also gives sneak peaks right away, which we loved!!! Can’t wait to see the pictures fully done!”

Hey!! I'm Alexis I'm here to capture all the meaningful moments🪩 I capture it all - between the mix of posed, and candids I capture your day so you can relive it any time you want to! I have been a photographer for 5 years now and my favorite moment of a wedding is when you hit the dance floor and are surrounded by all your favorite people! I am a lover of love, disco balls, and Champagne towers! When im not capturing couples love I am spending time with my dog Brimley or finding new places. I cant wait to be your new hype girl and third wheel!

The editing style was nice and natural, and the turnaround time was quick. Highly recommend for family or couples photos!”

“We could not have asked for better photographers for our wedding and elopement. They took our vision and style and made it even better than we imagined. From the start, they helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera and guided us when needed so nothing ever felt stiff or awkward. It was actually fun. They were incredibly accommodating with last minute changes and kept everything moving smoothly so we could get to different photo spots quickly and efficiently. Their turnaround time was very fast, and we were blown away when we saw our photos. We are so grateful we chose them and would recommend them to anyone looking for photographers who are flexible, professional, and genuinely great to work with.”
