  • Photographer

Hi, I’m Baylie! I’m a photographer and storyteller who loves capturing life’s most meaningful moments—from weddings and engagements to seniors and pets. I focus on authentic, heartfelt images that let you relive the emotions of the day for years to come. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m a wife, lifelong equestrian, and animal lover. My goal is simple: to make your experience relaxed, fun, and truly yours, while creating timeless memories you’ll cherish forever.

Baylie D Photography LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding day! From my first interaction with Baylie, she was kind, professional, and incredibly responsive. She immediately made me feel comfortable and was always available whenever I had a question or concern about our wedding photography. On the wedding day, Baylie was an enormous help from beginning to end. She made my husband, our family and friends, and me feel as though we had known her for years. She arrived early and ready to work, carefully photographing all the details that were important to me. She was flexible, accommodating, and attentive throughout the entire day. She even took pictures of my dog, who was very special to include in my wedding day. Baylie beautifully captured our venue, ceremony, and all the special moments with our family and friends. She also helped keep everything organized and running smoothly, which I deeply appreciated. We received our photos within a month, and they were absolutely stunning! Her attention to detail truly brought our wedding day to life, and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out. I highly recommend Baylie D Photography to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and caring wedding photographer. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her! Rachel Dean

Cannot say enough good things about Ace Wedding Djs! They were so professional and prepared. Our dj, Wes, was absolutely amazing. He was the orchestrator of our entire wedding and I am so thankful we had someone we could trust to make sure everything flowed smoothly. He asked us questions we wouldn't have ever thought of and made sure we were completely prepared for everything. During the wedding day, he made sure guests knew where to go, handled all of the mics for the ceremony, kept the vibes up and just did everything perfectly. Thank you so much Wes!!

We couldn't be more thrilled with our experience with Kelly! We booked her for our destination wedding in Punta Cana and everything was smooth sailing. She was incredibly kind, professional, and made the entire process low stress. You can tell she is experienced with destination weddings and was able to work well with the resort staff, including their videographer, and work around their schedules as needed. All of our guests kept commenting on how wonderful she was at capturing shots and just as a person! The photos are absolutely perfect! She captured every moment beautifully, and we received our pictures back so quickly, which was such a pleasant surprise. Communication was always easy, and she was so responsive to any questions or requests we had leading up to and after the wedding. We truly feel so lucky to have had her as part of our big day.

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.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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 :)

With a background that blends logistics, bridal styling, and event management, I bring both creative vision and practical organization to the planning process. That’s how Mallory Joy Wedding Events was built—not just from experience, but from intention.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my partner and I started planning our small/medium wedding, we were sure we could do it all on our own. One location, short ceremony, limited guest list, buffet dinner. But as planning moved forward, we realized that we simply couldn’t do it all AND still really relish and enjoy our day together with all of our friends and family. Mallory and her wife were fantastic in filling those shoes so that we could have the intimate, special day we dreamed of. Mallory’s attention to detail kept problems from happening before we could even realize. From decor assistance, to timeline management, to behind the scenes clean up, she was always on top of it. When my feet were tired on the dance floor and I kicked my heels off, she already had back up sandals on standby! We so appreciate her coming from out of town and keeping our vendors, families, and ourselves organized and feeling our best so that we could get the most out of our day!

Hi. I'm Jaymi! I'm a West Michigan wedding photographer specializing in creative, documentary-style wedding photography for couples who want authentic, story-driven images with a blend of candid moments and artistic composition. Michigan is home, but I'm available for travel worldwide!

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.

HEY! I'm Liv Lyszyk Maxwell (pronounced LY-zick, blame it on my Polish and Ukrainian roots) and I am a 20-something wedding and portrait photographer based in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Most days you can find me designing for my other business Liv Lyszyk Prints, wearing leggings (I don't do zippers), and eating too much sushi. I spend my time fighting for equity in the interest of all marginalized groups. I am always looking for my next travel adventure whether that be to a new town on lake Michigan, or half way around the world, I want to see it all.

Liv Lyszyk Photography was everything we could’ve hoped for and more. Liv captured every beautiful moment of our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception with such care and artistry. Every photo feels alive — full of the genuine joy and emotion of the day. What really stood out was how effortlessly Liv interacted with our guests. She made everyone feel so comfortable and natural that the photos truly reflect people’s real smiles, laughter, and happiness for us. It’s rare to find someone who can blend professionalism with such warmth and authenticity. We also loved that Liv worked solo. We’ve been to weddings with teams of photographers running around, and it can feel intrusive — but Liv’s presence was calm, confident, and completely unobtrusive. Every moment was beautifully documented without taking away from the experience itself. We are beyond thrilled with our photos and so grateful to have had Liv as part of our wedding day. Her talent, professionalism, and kind spirit made the experience unforgettable.

The quality of their work was incredible - all of my bridesmaids loved how their hair turned out and it held up perfectly throughout the entire event. Carly went above and beyond to ensure we looked and felt our best. I would highly recommend Bridal Hair by Carly to any couple looking for a talented and professional hair stylist to be a part of their wedding.

Hello! What I love about working at weddings is the unique experiences you have with each event. I enjoy tailoring songs and music to the couple's request and creating beautiful background music for their events. I value professionalism, adaptability, and an energetic spirit.

From the moment we booked WilliamVZ Music, we knew we were in good hands. We were so impressed with William and his professionalism, attentiveness, and quick responses throughout the planning process. He is an incredibly talented musician who exceeded our expectations and made our wedding day feel truly special. At the last minute, we noticed we had the wrong microphone extension, but William went above and beyond by letting us use their own speaker to ensure everything ran smoothly. The soundtrack they curated for our morning wedding ceremony and lunch reception felt so intentional and effortless - and is forever engraved in our hearts. William is absolutely the best, and we couldn't be happier with the incredible service they provided.

Hi, I'm Grace, a wedding photographer based in Grand Rapids, West Michigan. I'm here to celebrate your love story on a blend of digital and analog film, documenting your wedding the way it felt. The Garden Photo Collective was born out of a passion for documenting human connection, and has grown into a mission to continue preserving those moments in weddings and elopements across the world.

There aren't enough words to express how grateful we are for Grace. Looking through our wedding gallery felt like reliving our wedding day all over again. Every photo brought us right back to those moments, and somehow she captured every emotion, every little detail, and all of the joy so perfectly. We absolutely swooned over our golden hour portraits—they are everything we dreamed of and more. At the same time, the candid photos are just as special. Grace has such a gift for capturing the genuine, in-between moments that you don't even realize are happening, and those have quickly become some of our favorite images. Every single photo is stunning. We couldn't believe how consistently beautiful the entire gallery was! Grace is an incredibly talented artist with such an amazing eye, and we feel so blessed that she captured one of the most important days of our lives. If you're looking for a photographer who will make you feel comfortable, capture your day authentically, and deliver a gallery you'll cherish forever, Grace is the one. We truly couldn't have imagined a more perfect photographer. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us memories we'll treasure for a lifetime! ️

Distinctive catering was amazing to work with. They did our cocktail hour charcuterie, reception meal, desserts, AND bar service. I have nothing but good things to say! Staff were polite and professional, and the food was amazing. I had several guests tell me it was the BEST food they had ever had at a wedding. And people are still talking about the amazing charcuterie display! The cheesecake was the best I’ve ever had, and the bar service was top tier. They are easy to communicate and work with, and the menu is easy to navigate. I very highly recommend distinctive catering- you can’t beat 4 services in 1!!

Hi! My name is Lizzy, and I am the owner and coordinator of Cranberry Co. When you partner with Cranberry Co, you get someone who is hospitality-driven and friendship-focused. We love and desire to help you craft a meaningful event for you and your guests!

As the mother of the bride, you dream about your daughter’s wedding day for years. Lizzy made that dream even more beautiful than I could have imagined. Her calm presence, attention to every detail, and genuine care for our family allowed us to truly be present in every moment. Instead of worrying about timelines or logistics, I was able to simply watch my daughter walk down the aisle and soak in the joy of the day. That is a gift I will never forget.
