Hi, I'm Liv! I'm a photographer in the Marquette, MI area. I mainly shoot in the Upper Peninsula, but I also travel to lower Michigan (Frankenmuth Area) for weddings. I specialize in weddings and engagement sessions. I love capturing the special moments between couples and their loved ones on their big day! Visit my website to learn more about me!

I’m speechless!! I am so in love with our photos and this was only our first session with her!! We received sneak peaks after one week, and got our engagement session back after two weeks! Olivia was so wonderful to work with and it was so fun to see her ideas and our own come together! We have another engagement session later this year and I can’t wait!! Following that, our wedding session will be right around the corner!

Emily Diane Photography

Based in Marquette, Michigan, I’m your introverted, homebody, oat milk latte, obsessed photographer. Oh, & I can't forget awkward! When I'm not building relationships & serving couples & families, you can find me hiking, sitting down by the Ore Dock, & photographing nature in the Upper Peninsula just like my father & I used to do when I was a little girl.

Emily Diane Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. She were very easy to contact and quick to respond throughout the entire planning process, which was a huge relief. The quality of their work was excellent - she kept us on track and was helpful with anything we needed on the day. Emily is a wonderful photographer and person, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend Emily Diane Photography!

Ink & Opal Co. 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Big Bay, MI

You’ve probably heard the meaning of opal as, “precious stone,” or “queen of gems,” but we’re really focused on the reflected light that an opal emits (we’re photographers and videographers after all, we're kind of obsessed with light). We’re really here to be a light to our clients, meaning it’s our priority to show love to everyone because of the love that we have been shown.

Tiffany is amazing at what she does. She is beyond professional and puts her clients first. I have always admired her work, as a fellow photographer. I recently attended a workshop she designed and hosted, and it was beyond my expectations. If you're a couple, looking for their intimate wedding photographer or a photographer looking to expand their knowledge and portfolio- don't hesitate to reach out to Tiffany!

Sabrina Leigh Studios 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,400
  • Serves Big Bay, MI

Established in 2014. I have been a lifelong artist. In fact, when I was in 2nd grade, I said when I grew up I wanted to be an artist with insurance haha! I went to school at Northern Michigan University and got a BS degree in Art Education with a concentration in photography. While in college I started taking portraits and shot my first wedding in 2014. After teaching K-12 Art for three years, I was able to shift to become a wedding photographer full time in 2017. I am so grateful to have my dream job - I'm officially an artist with insurance!

Wow—speechless doesn’t even begin to describe how we feel about Sabrina! After seeing her incredible work at one of our friends’ weddings, we knew—even two years later—that she was the only person we wanted to capture our own wedding day. From start to finish, Sabrina was everything you could ask for in a photographer and more. She’s personable, outgoing, gentle, and unbelievably talented. She takes the time to get to know you—what you like (and don’t like), your bridal party’s names, your parents, and family members—so that everyone she photographs feels comfortable and cared for. By the end of the day, she didn’t just feel like our photographer, she felt like a friend. Let’s be honest, being in front of a camera can feel awkward—but Sabrina made us feel like naturals, like we’d been doing it our whole lives. Her ability to put people at ease is unmatched. If I could, I’d hire her for every occasion—not just weddings. Her personality, her artistry, and her editing style are all truly top-notch. You will not be disappointed with Sabrina—we can’t recommend her enough!

Hi there! My name’s Molly Holmstrom-Bolster, and I’m the Molly Jo of Molly Jo Photography. Photographer. Mom. Wife. Dog mom. Ordained minister. Yooper. I was born & raised in Calumet, MI (in the beautiful Upper Peninsula). I picked up a camera over four years ago to get some shots of my younger brothers racing cars & playing hockey, but realized very quickly that my passion was not sports photography - it was capturing love.

Molly was so wonderful to work with! She texted me and settled me several times. When I couldn’t decide what to put my boys in for engagement pictures she helped me thru it and I sent her several pictures! The day of the wedding she was flawless and helped and did so much more than a photographer should.

Hi, I'm Curtis and as you can tell I like taking photos...a lot! I'm a born and raised Michigander, but you'll find me traveling the world, whenever I get the chance. If I'm not taking photos or traveling, you can find me in the kitchen trying to prefect the perfect pizza recipe (any tips are appreciated)!

Our experience with Curtis was absolutely fantastic! Our wedding photos turned out to be stunning! Curtis was so kind, professional, and skilled. It is clear photography is his passion, and working with him on our wedding day was a joy. He is extremely talented and is excellent with people. I am so thankful we were able to work with him. We truly could not have had a better experience and I feel so lucky to have such beautiful photographs of our special day. I highly recommend working with Curtis to photograph your wedding day or any special occasion!

He had a true passion for his craft that shone through in every interaction.

  • Serves Big Bay, MI

I'm Lauren, a Michigan wedding photographer based in Grand Rapids, documenting weddings and elopements with a candid, documentary approach & an editorial eye. I believe your wedding should feel like a wedding. You deserve to be present for the people, emotions, laughter and little moments happening around you, while trusting that they're being documented beautifully. I'll guide you when you need it, step back when you don't & help create an experience that feels comfortable & natural from beginning to end. The result is a gallery full of intentional images that don't just show what your day looked like - they bring you back to how it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

After meeting Ali in person on their wedding day and seeing the magic she can do, it was an absolute no brainer that she would be there for our big day and any and every other event we need photography for! She truly became family and we cannot thank her enough for everything she’s done! She goes above and beyond in her work and truly makes the day so much easier and more fun than ever!

Soul Stories is our passion project in the truest sense, it was born out of a love for the moments words can’t quite hold — the quiet glances, the laughter between vows, the way love feels when it’s seen rather than said. By day, Sena (lead photographer) is a nurse and Shelton (lead photographer) works in cybersecurity — and as a couple, photo and video has always been the way we remember and cherish life. Documenting love, celebration, and the moments that matter most is something we've always done naturally. We simply decided to share that gift with others.

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

Hi! I’m Carly :) Your new bestie behind the camera! I am located in Traverse City, Michigan, where I was born and raised, but I am always happy to travel for weddings + elopements. I fell in love with taking pictures at a very young age when I received my first film camera as a gift from my parents and have been obsessed ever since. My goal is to create timeless images that you can cherish forever, images that freeze your favorite moments in time. I’m not just a photographer, but a visual storyteller for loved-up souls.

Choosing Carly was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish! We were pretty nervous going into our engagement shoot because neither of us had much experience in front of a camera, but she put us at ease right away. She gave such clear, natural direction and turned what we thought would be an intimidating process into something effortless and fun. On the wedding day itself, she was nothing short of incredible. She worked seamlessly with all of our other vendors, remained amazingly flexible and adaptable as the schedule shifted, and made the whole day run perfectly. To top it all off, we received our full photo gallery within just two weeks of the wedding, which was mind-blowing! Her talent, warmth, and professionalism are unmatched, and we could not recommend her more highly.

I am so happy we chose Claire as our photographer!! I am absolutely obsessed with our engagement and wedding photos. She was fantastic to work with from the very start, super responsive and professional, and when we got our engagement photos back - I knew we made the right choice!! I wanted photos that felt like real moments where when I saw them - I didn’t think of the pose and position, I thought of the emotions I was feeling and that was what she was able to capture! Our engagement shoot was so fun, and she was so flexible with our vision - meeting us in Lake Geneva, WI for a little bit of everything (lake photos with our dog, sharing an ice cream, and then photos of just myself and my now husband - cuddled up on a couch at a local coffee shop). Come wedding day - she was the perfect amount of letting moments happen naturally but also, making sure things we said were important to us as a couple were captured! Sometimes instead of doom scrolling on Instagram - I happily scroll through the photos she captured!

ignited Photography is a husband and wife photography team specializing in on-location natural and studio lighting. With almost 20 years photographing weddings together, we are passionate about love, life, weddings (and each other)!

If you are in the hunt for a wedding photographer look no further - this is who you want! We received a recommendation to check them out from a work colleague and I am SO THANKFUL because Kevin and Heather were truly the nicest couple we could have imagined working with for our big day. I'm extremely type A and a planner and loved how organized they are. From the initial video chat, to the engagement session, and ultimately our wedding day, everything ran so smoothly. My husband is not a big fan of having his photo taken and they made him so comfortable! They also had a photo preview of some sneak peeks ready for us on the wedding night which was so unexpected and such a nice surprise! I could not have asked for a better experience and am excited to work with them again in the future for family photos or other opportunities. Picture included of us with them at the end of the wedding night.

Marisa was wonderful! We would recommend MSMP to any couples looking for a photographer for their special day. They took the time to have a detailed call with us to make a timeline for the day. We trusted their vision and loved the way our pictures turned out.

I cannot express how amazing Angela was. She has not only a super warm personality. But also an amazing work ethic. I got the package for two photographers and they were both phenomenal. While I was getting ready(we are running about 30 minutes late) she was out taking photos of the venue, the lay flat photos, and the other details pictures. She even held onto our rings for me because the bridal suite was a wreck and I didn’t wanna lose them. All in all my experience with her was a 12/10 experience. She was one of the people who made my wedding less stressful!
