Shauna Wear Photography

I'm Shauna, your Detroit wedding photographer and partner in weaving timeless tales through the lens. With a heart full of romance and a lens crafted by years of expertise, I'm here to capture the essence of your love story and - to be honest - be a breath of fresh air amidst the chaos of planning. With a blend of romanticism and expertise, I'm committed to encapsulating your love in every photograph - and have a damn good time doing it. Each click of my shutter is infused with the passion I have for telling stories through images, ensuring that your wedding album narrates a tale that will be cherished for generations.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was lucky enough to have known Shauna through my sister-in-law, who spoke so highly of her and immediately recommended her to be our photographer when we began planning our wedding. It was important to us that our vendors knew us—either individually or as a couple—because every single person involved in our wedding day was there for a reason. From the moment Shauna arrived until the very end of the night, she made our day truly special. When she delivered our gallery, that feeling was only further solidified. She captured every detail of our day—even moments we never thought to include. She was our coordinator, our hype girl, our visionary, and our artist. Since sharing our gorgeous wedding photos, we’ve received countless comments about how incredible our photographer was. And even that doesn’t come close to describing her work. Shauna is truly a master of her craft, and we could not recommend her more. We love you, Shauna! Thank you for being such a special part of the best day of our lives. — Kody & Candis

ON HIATUS until further notice. Hi there and congratulations!

Anastasia Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $12,000
  • Serves Southgate, MI

It all started for me back when I was a teenager, taking pictures of my little sister with my first camera. I remember her running around, playing, making faces, and giggling. At that time I thought to myself, even as a child, that moments like this are so short and that I want to capture this exact moment forever in my head.

The minute I met Anastasia, I absolutely loved her energy. Then I noticed just how experienced she was in this industry. As someone who has a shy husband, Anastasia’s posing advice and tips were BEYOND helpful. We would not have achieved the photos we now have had she not given us her pointers. Anastasia is timely, professional and NEVER misses a shot. Some of my most beloved photos for life have been shot by Anastasia. She also has such an eye for detail — she captured photos of our holding hands and grabbed all of my tiny accessories without my direction. Had it not been for her, I never would’ve remembered to get a shot of my perfume or my shoes. Lastly, her energy. You cannot be a stressed or overwhelmed bride around Anastasia. She’s so encouraging and kind. She talks you up while she’s shooting and makes you feel so confident behind the camera. I would shout it over and over: BOOK ANASTASIA! You won’t regret it.

Kayla Bouren Photography 

5.0

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Southgate, MI

With a passion for blending editorial sophistication and candid spontaneity, I have honed my craft over the last 6 years, capturing the laughter, tears, and all the tender moments in between. The commitment I make to you extends beyond photography. My meticulous approach begins with anticipating your needs even before they arise, ensuring a seamless, elegant experience. I hold the value of family close to my heart, treating your loved ones as if they were my own, collaborating harmoniously with your vendors, and providing clear communication to ensure your day unfolds flawlessly.

If you're looking at these reviews, I am assuming you are interested in booking Kayla as your wedding photgrapher, and all I have to say is DO IT. Kayla is amazing. She photographed both mine and my brothers weddings. Here are a few things I loved most about having Kayla as my photographer (from a bride)! 1) stress free. Kayla asks for your input and list of wanted photos weeks leading up to the wedding. She then creates a list for day of and takes care of the rest. I did not have to do a single thing managing what photos I wanted the day of my wedding. It allowed me to really enjoy the moment and be present (which is exactly what I wanted). 2) natural candid photos. Kayla does an amazing job of getting your natural smile in photos. I loved my photos. 3) SO many good photos. Kayla provided us with SO many photos to choose from. This allowed me to print off a variety so I didnt have the same few photos all over my house. 4) Comfort. Kayla did an amazing job making me and my husband feel comfortable day of and in the photos. 5) made my vision come true! With both venues we booked, I had a vision of wanting to use the entire venue to allow for different photos opportunities. One of the ideas I had were 'getting ready' photos with my husband in the kitchen. Kayla made my vision more than come true. These are some of my favorite photos she took, and allowed my husband and I to spend time together before walking down the aisle. I am a very picky person, but I would do everything all over again the same exact way for my wedding, including having Kayla as the photographer. I could not recommend Kayla enough!

My dream was to build a wedding company that couples could rely on. I am proud, as the owner of Falcon Film Studios; to work day to day with such talented individuals. “The Falcons” have a different touch than other vendors. We are a family business. There is no better place than a wedding to bring families together! I look forward to meeting yours. Thanks for taking the time to look into our team!

We used Falcon Films for our day of coordinator, DJ, photo, and video for our wedding and the entire crew did amazing! Logan, our lead photographer, made our day so special and adapted photos, as I have a broken leg, to make it as normal as possible. Jake, our videographer, was on point with everything! Ashlyn (day of coordinator) was incredible at making our day go smoothly and helped with whatever needed! Ginger, our DJ, handled our ceremony great, incorporated important songs so well, and had the dance floor going! Also, our second photographer, Kenzie was amazing as well! She got some truly great shots and was super kind and creative! Jaylen, our second videographer, was great as well and got some creative shots too!! Altogether, a great team that captured our day and helped it come together so beautifully!

Joy Photo and Video was a fantastic choice for our wedding photography and videography needs. They always answered my questions as fast as they could, which put me at ease during the planning process. I loved that I can have access to all the pictures they took, not just the edited ones. The video they put together is amazing - they were able to make it so special in just a few short minutes. The photographer and videographer told us exactly what to do and how to pose, which was so helpful since we didn't know what kind of poses we wanted. The only thing I knew I wanted was some under the veil pictures, and they made sure to get those first. I also loved knowing that if my photographer or videographer were sick that day or something happened, there would be a back-up person there to ensure our day was captured perfectly. Overall, Joy Photo and Video exceeded our expectations and I would highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

Hi, I’m Katy! Your new favorite Detroit, MI based photographer. I am always down to travel and always here to hype you up. I really just love love. Since 2016, I’ve been capturing love stories with heart, laughter, and a whole lotta good energy. I’ll guide you when needed, but I’m also all about letting the real magic unfold naturally. Whether you're camera-shy or a total ham, we’ll keep it fun, relaxed, and full of moments that actually feel like you. When I’m not photographing amazing couples, you’ll find me exploring new restaurants or bars, headbanging at a concert, or yelling at the Detroit Red Wings like they can hear me through the TV.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to begin? Finding Katy was truly one of the biggest blessings of our wedding process. It was very important to find a photographer who we felt had, and actively displayed, the ability to photograph in an inclusive, respectful and honest manner. We are an interfaith couple with family and friends who fall everywhere along the social, identity and religious spectrum. Once we found Katy, we were blown away by the love, care and diversity showcased in her portfolio. Upon meeting with her virtually, we were convinced that she was the right person. Katy is kind, understanding and VERY good at what she does. When it comes to the work, Katy was proactive without being pushy and really took to heart what we wanted out of our photos. Over the course of the experience, we were able to develop a real friendship with her because she is that good of a person. The day of the event, Katy was locked in and on top of everything. Prior to our weekend, she had done an amazing job of giving us prep sheets and coordinating as much detail as possible so the big day could just glide. Katy and her second shooter Jen (who was amazing, too!) were professional, fun and didn't miss a moment of the day. Everything from planned photos to impromptu shots felt fun and natural. Getting back the album completely blew past our expectations. Every photo captured exactly what we had discussed with her. So many photographs left us speechless. Katy should be at the top of your list if you want great photos full of love, care, and magic. She is down to earth and was the only photographer we spoke to that didn't make us feel like we were just another gig for them.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot begin to talk about how wonderful Christine is--as a professional, as an artist, but as an individual who deeply cares about her craft and the people she is creating memories for. Christine is spunky and makes even the stiffest models let loose; she makes being photographed comfortable and enjoyable. Her photos truly do speak for themselves. She does an amazing job capturing personalities, candids, but also the deeply emotional and sentimental moments and portraits every bride and groom want to have from their wedding day. Through our engagement session and wedding day, you can truly see our love for each other and personalities shine through in her images. This is truly because of the thoughtfulness, passion, and love Christine has for her profession and the couples she photographs. I cannot emphasize enough that you need Visual Folklore for your wedding or other significant life event!

Hi I'm Sam! Congratulations on your engagement! What an exciting chapter in your life! When I’m not behind the lens, you can usually find me bossing my husband around and trying to keep up with my 3 wild children Kate, Jack and Luke. ​I am a natural light, true to color, documentary style wedding & portrait photographer, bringing a playful and authentic vibe to every session. I live for those candid, unscripted moments. When couples choose me to capture their big day, it’s a true honor—because once the celebration is over, the only thing left to relive those memories are your photos. Happy Planning ;)

Samantha Lee Photography was amazing to work with for our wedding! They had great communication throughout the entire process, which put us at ease. Samantha even helped me get into my dress and made sure everyone was where they were supposed to be, contributing to our special day in so many ways. I highly recommend Samantha Lee Photography for any of your future photography needs! She made me feel confident!

Hazel Eyes & Co. were the perfect photographers for our wedding day. From the very beginning, Dotty's clear communication, friendly demeanor, and warm welcome put us at ease. Her visionary approach and astonishing attention to detail resulted in picturesque, romantic photos that we will cherish for generations. Dotty listened closely to our vision and made it a reality - she even captured a breathtaking moment of me breastfeeding my son in my wedding gown. Throughout the day, Dotty's professionalism and responsiveness ensured everything went smoothly. We ended up with three stunning wedding albums, all thanks to Dotty's incredible eye for photography. I would highly recommend Hazel Eyes & Co. to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

A documentary, candid, creative wedding photography team offering film & digital photo packages ranging from 8-12 hours. Our editing style is natural with a touch of mood. We love capturing images that make you feel something!

Michelle and Michael are the best! From a great engagement photoshoot with Michelle to working with them both for our wedding, they were incredible. Their communication leading up to the event was great and they had a great questionnaire to make sure everything that was important to us was captured on the day. They posed us in ways where we felt comfortable and had fun- quick and no stress at all. It helped make our day even better by having people we trusted capturing our memories and favorite moments. We got our preview back so quickly and are so excited for the rest of the photos. Book with them early!
