Awarded Best of Zola
Our wedding was filled with whimsy and charm - Original Weddings was able to capture that energy in video and film, so we can revisit that experience for a lifetime. Thank you for your attention to detail and level of care - we are overjoyed with the results! EXPERIENCE - We interviewed a few photography companies to compare prices, offerings, and aesthetic appeal; we ultimately decided on OW because they offered the best rates for videography and photography packages. From the beginning, the customer experience was favorable with multiple opportunities for touchpoints and planning. Their pricing is transparent and straight-forward; the add-ons will be tempting, and it will cost you. However, we appreciated that our interactions with the office staff weren't sales driven; they shared the options for add-ons without it being pushy. All communication and planning details are handled through a personalized portal and its the easiest way to ask questions and relay changes to the photography team. If you are someone that is not particularly organized, you'll love this feature and the imbedded questionnaires. They'll serve as a guide to crafting the look, identifying highlights to be captured, and a space for notes to the team working with you on the day of. During the wedding day, everything went smoothly and everyone was professional and personable. Their presence didn't feel intrusive and they expertly worked around our timeline to maximize efficiency. RESULTS - Our gallery was a fantastic mix of curated moments and candid memories. Each cluster of photos creates a timestamp throughout the day and it was a welcome reminder of all the small details of the wedding that can be easily missed among the shuffle of it all. In our package we stuck with 8 hours of photography and videography; electing afterwards to request the raw footage for an additional charge. I believe the quality of the photos and videos is phenomenal for the price - something similar may be double the price, especially if you're looking for more aesthetic/Instagramish vibe - we went traditional and it exceeded our expectations. SHOUTOUTS - I have to give special kudos to the team that worked directly with us. For planning and logistics, Sarah and Gabriella were attentive and quick to respond to questions. Sarah was very sweet and made our wedding feel like a priority and not just one of many they're juggling. I appreciate her collaboration on capturing the specifics to ensure even the smallest details were relayed to the team; and the results speak for themselves. The true heroes of the day were Pricilla, Sanaa, and Collin; they were the team tasked with documenting the magic of the day in a fashion that captured our essence as a couple. They quickly became a highlight of the experience - we hit it off immediately and their energy was uplifting and reassuring. We are eternally grateful for their patience with our families and the lighthearted approach they took to dealing with grumpier relatives. Overall, it was a beautiful day, and we are overjoyed to have been paired with this team because they did a phenomenal job.

I'm Chel, a Michigan-based wedding photographer specializing in meaningful celebrations, and candid storytelling. I photograph weddings throughout Michigan and beyond, creating images that feel natural, connected, and true to the people in them. I would love to share how I support couples throughout the planning process and on the wedding day itself. From Detroit estates and historic venues to waterfront celebrations in Northern Michigan, I document weddings with an editorial & heartfelt approach.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very first moment we stepped in front of Cheleana's camera, we felt like we were friends—her warm and welcoming spirit made us instantly comfortable. Over the years, we have shared nearly every significant life event with her, and we can't imagine our lives without our annual sessions! Cheleana always goes WAY above and beyond to capture the perfect shot, guiding us effortlessly throughout the process. It's like magic; you don't even realize it's happening! With her easy chit-chat and infectious laughter, every session feels like a joyous reunion. What stands out the most about our experience with Cheleana is her genuine heart and love for photography and people. Every time we work with her, it feels like we are her only and favorite clients. Nothing about our sessions feels fake or repetitive; it’s truly special. The artistry in her photos is astounding—it's hard to believe a magazine hasn’t snatched her up yet! Each image is infused with emotion, making them feel like art. The editing is tastefully done, allowing us to feel elevated and confident while remaining 1000% ourselves. Her candid shots are my absolute favorite; many of the photos she’s taken of my husband and me, as our family has grown, have brought me to tears. She has given me the priceless gift of slowing down time and cherishing this beautiful life! She is worth Every. Single. Penny!!! Working with Cheleana is an absolute delight. Her fun-loving and laid-back personality makes everything incredibly smooth and comfortable, even when working with little ones and occasionally reluctant husbands! She always has a great joke ready and a treat in her pocket—I'll let you figure out which one is for whom! :p Plus, she goes the extra mile by asking ahead of time if it's okay to give something to the little ones, which shows her thoughtfulness and professionalism. Honestly, we have witnessed her handle every situation over the years with extreme grace and professionalism—whether it was battling the heat on our wedding day while super pregnant or navigating crazy weather, or finding the perfect spot for our photos. There’s absolutely no room for improvement in our eyes; we just hope she never leaves us! Cheleana has truly become a part of our family, and we look forward to many more years of capturing memories together. Thank you, Cheleana, for everything you do! If you’re thinking of booking…. DO IT!! Trust me!!!! She will make you feel like you had the wedding of the century and you’ll want to stare at the pictures on your walls for decades!!!

JLB Wedding Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (26 reviews)
Detroit, MI
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $4,900

I started photographing weddings in 2003 and eventually left my day job as a designer to do photography full-time, but I’ve never been able to turn the designer off. In addition to photos, I create a few animated gifs from every session. My style is influenced by design principles, architecture, Edward Hopper paintings, plus films by Stanley Kubrick & Denis Villeneuve. While composing I put as much attention into the scene as the subjects. I prefer to cover events solo and do my own editing, posting teasers the next day. I’m based in the Detroit area but cover weddings all over America.

Awarded Best of Zola
JLB Photography was the first vendor my husband and I booked for our wedding. His eye for light, structure, and how to place subjects in a frame is impeccable! He is an expert in his field Our photos turned out incredible! We were so delighted by the time he took to take unique portraits of our guests, all in different locations at our venue. I will continue to recommend his services for years to come!

Awarded Best of Zola
There are no words to describe how blessed I feel to have found Emily as our wedding photographer. My wedding was the happiest day of my life (so far) and one that I will not soon forget, but as my memories start to fade, I know I don't need to worry because Emily not only captured every detail, but every emotion of the day. She genuinely captured the scenes so poignantly that I am transported back to that time to feel each moment again. She really is that good. With Emily you will get a variety of stunning shots. Some could be sent straight to Vogue and some straight to Mom and Dad's frame, which is exactly what we were looking for. Not only is Emily an amazing photographer - she's also just an all-around great person to spend your day with! She is so sweet, calm, professional, and fun. You don't even realize you just spent 3 hours taking pictures! Emily also did our engagement shoot as part of our package which we recommend as it gave us a chance to work with Emily before the big day and build the relationship. Not to mention we got awesome photos to use for our save-the-dates and website! We cannot recommend Emily enough. This is someone I feel so confident vouching for to all my family and friends. You are truly in the best hands on your most special day, and you'll have the photos to prove it!!

I’m addicted to capturing who you are and your tale as it unfolds (the photojournalistic approach gives me life). I can occasionally be found sipping on bubble tea while indulging in Doctor Who, Sherlock, or Merlin marathons. Being diagnosed with Lupus at 16, I had to give up my ultimate goal of being a pilot in the Air Force. After my first year of Law School, I felt a bit empty and sat down to take a serious look at my life. I never saw it as a career path and pretty much wrote it off until 2016. I'm extremely blessed to be able to work with so many amazing people.

Creating truly unique wedding photography starts with seeing more than the moment itself. Every location offers its own light, architecture, textures, and atmosphere — and I use those elements with creative composition to create photographs that feel distinctive and personal. By keeping the experience relaxed and embracing the natural rhythm of your day, I'm able to create images that don't just document what happened — they capture it in a way that feels intentional, immersive, and truly different.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were looking for fun, romantic, light & bright photos that are also timeless and true to color, and man did Rich deliver. Communication was amazing- he doesn't take long to respond and is easy to get ahold of. He was so easy to work with from handling a little last minute chaos with engagement photo locations to us replanning our entire wedding within three months. He made sure our engagement and wedding photos went without a hitch. Not only was Rich fun to work with, but he was a fantastic resource and we enjoyed the levity and expertise he brought to every step of the process. Our photos are STUNNING.

Awarded Best of Zola
Breanne was so much more than our wedding photographer – she was such a steady, calming presence and truly became a friend throughout the entire experience! From the very beginning, she went above and beyond, even traveling to Chicago to photograph our engagement session in a place that means so much to us. On our wedding day, she kept everything on track, checked in on us, and stepped in wherever needed so things felt smooth and taken care of. She went far beyond what you expect from a photographer – helping with little things like fixing a veil or fastening a bracelet, and just being someone we could rely on throughout the day. That kind of care meant so much. Her work is just incredible. She captured the joy, the laughter, and all the in between moments in a way that brings us right back to how happy we felt that day. So many of our guests, family, and even vendors commented on how amazing she was and how well she captured everything. We feel so lucky to have had her as such a big part of our wedding and cannot wait to work with her again for future special moments!

I have always loved telling a story through photographs. Since high school I've been obsessed with taking pictures. That obsession carried on into my college ambitions and I ended up with a BFA in Photography from the College For Creative Studies. Since graduating in 2011 I started freelancing and soon wedding and portrait photography became my calling.

Amber did a great job at our wedding! The previews we've gotten so far are fantastic! She was really easy to work with, very friendly, and helped us get great shots that didn't feel too staged or unnatural. Her editing is great too and just what we were looking for! Highly recommend!

  • Serves Detroit, MI

I’m an IT professional by day, a photographer by night, a mom & wife every second of the day. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m married to my soul mate and together we have two young, rowdy boys that we have LOTS of fun with. I grew up in Argentina and that’s shaped me in more ways than I can explain. I have a deep rooted connection to people & places and often wear my heart right on my sleeve. I am very ‘laid-back’ & focused when in a photo session. I do more looking than talking to make sure I get the vision just right. I provide specific direction when it’s needed and vague direction to get the intimate candids.

I had no idea our small, low-key wedding could look so incredibly beautiful. The finished photos ooze sophistication, refinement as well as fun! Not bad for a simple courthouse wedding! If you value photography and want someone who is a master of their craft and a true professional all-round, look no further. Genevieve did everything she could to empower and coach us into really just feeling like our best selves. At no point did we feel self-conscious. We will treasure these photos forever. Thank you, Genevieve DeVries Photography

  • Starts at $12,000

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.

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!

We are a husband and wife team that recently just planned our own wedding on our 10 year anniversary so we know what it's like to plan a wedding! We have built quite the life together and our lives revolve around this business and our 2 pups, Pablo + Pedro. We love sushi, iced coffee, ultra-zero monsters, trying new pasta joints (ok, more so Ashley), Breaking Bad, and anything from Kid Cudi. I (Ashley) am the main point of contact for our couples and oversee the majority of the back end work while Austin shoots the weddings with me. It's so fun to be able to do this together!

Wow! Ashley completely blew us away. She made our intimate, backyard wedding look so incredibly stunning. She captured the true joy of the day and the beautiful lighting of golden hour. Her energy was amazing, she was easy-going and collaborative which was great for this anxious bride. We've gotten so many compliments on our wedding photos and we're forever grateful to her for capturing the day so beautifully.

Hey! Hello! What's happening? I'm Erika, owner and lead photographer of It Clicks Photo. I love learning about your love story, how you knew your significant other was the one, and any embarrassing stories you two have endured over time. I'm sure I have a few I feel the need to tell you about, too! I'm a very accepting, down to earth lady who values and appreciates your authentic- straight to the core- self. Capturing your wedding day fills me with life, and makes me feel all butterfly-ish and bubbly inside. Can't wait to meet you both! (PS- I love to travel! There isn't a place I won't go- honestly.)

It Clicks Photo is simply the best! They were one of the first vendors that we picked and it was the easiest choice! The photos are bright, cheery and have a timeless quality to them! Our first meeting with Erika was over Zoom, which was so convenient, and we knew almost immediately that she was the person we wanted to spend our wedding day with! Erika has a bright, calm energy which is what any bride needs on her big day. Sarah was so chill and sweet. Together, Erika and Sara were one stellar duo! We cannot say anough good about them. We received a sneak peek that night and and extended sneak peek before our honeymoon! We were able to request edits, but the pictures were so great, the only edits I really requested were silly things like fixing my worn lipstick! I have so many great things to say, but the pictures are all you need to make a decision! Book them now!

Manny Adeniji Photos

Detroit, MI
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $1,600

I'm Manny Adeniji, a Detroit-based photographer behind Manny Adeniji Photos. I capture weddings, anniversaries, and engagements across Michigan with a style that blends candid, in-the-moment emotion with thoughtfully composed portraits. What I love most is the storytelling—the quiet glance before the vows, the burst of laughter on the dance floor, the tears during a toast. Those unscripted moments are the heart of your day, and getting to preserve them so you can relive them for years is what makes this work feel less like a job and more like a calling

Booking Manny was the best decision we made for our wedding. He's professional, easygoing, and genuinely passionate about what he does. From the pre-wedding consult to the final gallery, everything was seamless. The candid shots are our favorites—he has a gift for catching the real, unscripted emotion. Beautiful editing, fast turnaround, and a private gallery that was so easy to share with family. Thank you, Manny!

I capture the stuff that makes you stop, take a deep breath, and remember that moment. That thing that happened. Those words he said. Every once in a while, I'll get asked why I do what I do. It's not everyone's dream job to haul around a ludicrous amount of camera gear on most Saturdays….but it's been my dream job for a while. I mean a long while...since the days of film…and I get to spend my days capturing raw emotion and making some crazy awesome photos for people. It's a total thrill.

We cannot say enough about how wonderful Michele is. Our engagement photo session felt like we were with an old friend. She helped us find a few of our other vendors and periodically checked in, always seeing if she could be of assistance. Come wedding day, she was such a rock and we knew we were in great hands. All of my bridesmaids were raving about how wonderful she was! The photos turned SO PERFECT and we can’t wait to look at them for a lifetime. Do not hesitate to book with Michele!!!!

Hey lovers, I'm Kelsey. I fell in love with photography when I was just ten years old. Nearly 23 years later, I'm still obsessed with this art form and how it can preserve life's most precious moments. I've photographed events for prestigious institutions such as The Smithsonian National Museum of African Art and The Washington Ballet, however, nothing brings me more joy than photographing two people in love. Let me help you preserve the fleeting moments of your special day. With expertly captured images and heirloom quality keepsakes, I'll treat your memories like masterpieces worthy of being in a museum.

I've worked with Kelsey for over a decade. She's so accommodating, diligent and prompt. She's flexible with ideas, knows how to handle large groups and even tired children. Working with Kelsey is an experience that you won't regret.

Honestly, we're pretty bad at talking about ourselves, but here we are! We love taking photos, and are grateful we've been able to photograph for over a decade! Collectively our experience has brought us across the country (and globe!) photographing and filming weddings, families, and more for all different clients, specifically with a narrative cinematic feel. We have been working together since we met in college, married shortly after that in Southern California, and have lived in Los Angeles, the East Coast, and planted roots in Detroit. We are parents to two wonderful boys, and caretakers of two cats and a dog.

I had the pleasure of working with Jamie and Paul as a wedding planner. They were easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding, and they were beyond helpful as we developed a rain plan for the couple. Despite the dreary weather, they managed to capture beautiful outdoor and indoor photos. I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again soon!
