I’m Cammi! Noelle is my middle name, and I’m a wedding photographer and graphic designer with nearly a decade of experience in the industry. I’m a mama to the sweetest little boy and married to my very best friend—two roles that have shaped my heart for meaningful, honest storytelling more than anything else. I’m deeply people-oriented and endlessly inspired by connection, landscapes, and the moments that matter most. Photography isn’t just my job—it’s the way I tell stories and preserve seasons of life in a way that feels true, emotional, and lasting. I’m incredibly honored to do what I do.

“Cammi and her photos are unmatched. They are simply breathtaking, while at the same time she makes it easy and almost natural to be in front of the camera. Cammi is a radiant person, and it's clear she loves what she does. She has been a resource on all things wedding, and I am so thankful to have worked with her throughout this process!”

I’m Brittany, a laid-back, candid and colorful photographer in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I love working with ALL couples, but especially have a soft spot for non-traditional weddings. My gays, weirdos, ADHDers, D&D players- I'm your girl. Let's connect over our shared passions or fandoms- I'm a lover of all things spooky, Halloween, books, cats, oat milk lattes, Star Wars, and continuing education courses.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Brittany is an extremely talented photographer and a chill, kind human, who I couldn’t recommend more! As two people who are a little awkward having our photo taken, she made the experience feel casual and fun. She came to Chicago for our engagement session where we took photos on the lakefront with our dog, and at one of our local dive bars. On the wedding day itself in Benton Harbor, she and her second shooter Alexa helped us have a relaxed experience. She sent our sneak peek of photos back so quickly and they turned out so amazing - I have been living vicariously through them post-wedding as they perfectly capture the emotion and vibes of the day. I found Brittany through Zola and hope others do the same because she is amazing!”

“We can’t say enough amazing things about Promani! They did both our engagement and wedding photos, and every single image took our breath away. Their professionalism, creativity, and warmth made both experiences feel effortless and fun.

Promani handled it with total grace and zero hesitation. They coordinated everything seamlessly, showed up ready for anything, and captured our day perfectly despite all the last-minute changes. Our photos are beyond stunning, but what we’ll remember most is how calm, kind, and supportive they were during such a whirlwind time.

“We decided to work with Audrey and her team for photography for our rehearsal dinner and wedding day. Leading up to the big day, we primarily communicated with Audrey. She was always so responsive and helped us formulate a plan as we only had a general idea in mind for what we wanted for photos. She was such a joy to work with for our rehearsal dinner and did a great job of capturing so many phenomenal photos without feeling like we had to constantly pose. We worked with one of her associates, Misa, on our wedding day. He and the secondary photographer were great about keeping things moving and capturing our friends and family in their natural element!

“We planned our wedding from all the way across the country (Florida to California) so we already had challenges. From the beginning, the price was great and the photos looked promising, so we decided to go for it and we are so glad we did! Turned out to be well worth it. Michael connected with us immediately, assured us he would make it happen and not to worry about a thing. We communicated over the phone and through email, he always answered every time I called, ready to listen and note my requests. The day of, the photographer Michael booked for us, Michaela Gardener drove hours to be there for our special day and even brought an assistant. She was willing to be hands on all day, treated my children like family and even stayed late to capture extra shots. Her experience shows from her work. Both the DJ and Photographer arrived early to set up and are experienced business owners. The photos are great quality and high resolution. They came out so beautiful, even with our imperfect family and little ones running around, she somehow made us look great. We are so satisfied and blown away by how the pictures turned out that every little thing that didn’t go as planned that day just melted away because the photos just perfectly captured our love and the great time our guests had. Wedding planning can be very stressful and chaotic and so I’m very glad we found someone to make this part of the wedding easy. All within our budget. Two less things we had to stress about and lucky we could trust Michael. Very happy with our experience”
