About The Garden Photo Collective

The Garden Photo Collective

Wedding and Elopement Photographer

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.

We prioritize presence over perfection. I guide you when needed, and know when to step back, allowing natural moments to unfold - it's the in-between moments that sometimes mean the most. Authentic emotion is at the heart of my work. Here I create photographs that not only freeze a moment in time, but preserve a feeling. I'm here to see all the in-between moments that make your love uniquely yours. I'd love to connect with you! You can view more of my work on my website and Instagram.

perfect photographer!
I couldn’t recommend Grace enough! She is the sweetest, kindest person and the best at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. My favorite thing about her photos is that you get to see yourself living in the moment rather than just posing for a picture. Her photos are always so beautiful and natural! If you’re looking for a photographer who captures genuine moments and makes the whole experience feel effortless, Grace is your girl!!

Grace Rocks!
Myself & my fiancée are so fortunate to have Grace as our engagement AND wedding photographer. She is incredibly kind, talented, and goes above and beyond for her clients. We got our engagement photos back a few weeks ago and we were floored. We can’t WAIT for the wedding!!!

The Best Photographer We Could Have Asked For
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about our experience with Grace. From the very beginning, she was the absolute sweetest, kindest, most wonderful person, and having her there on such an important day meant so much to us. She went above and beyond to make sure she captured everything. All of the big moments, but also the little details and memories that we might have otherwise missed. She was so thoughtful, attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in making sure we had everything we could possibly want. You could tell that she cared about our experience just as much as we did. And the photos… absolutely STUNNING. Every single picture is beautiful. Looking through our photos feels like reliving our wedding all over again, and we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. I want to get married again so that I can get more photos from her lol. Anytime we need photos in the future she’s going to be the first person I reach out to.

Best Photographer for your Best Day Ever!!
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! ️

Most Gorgeous Photos Ever!!!
Book Grace!!! My husband, our families and I treasure the photos she took of us for our small wedding in Chicago during the most pleasant and natural 2 hours ever. We were a mix of people who love and despise being photographed, and the verdict was unanimous: everyone adores the photos and had an amazing time. Not only did Grace very kindly and ably direct some gorgeous group shots, but she was also quick to accommodate a ton of spontaneous photos of people having fun that have become our favorites! If you're considering her, book her. :) You'll love the experience and the results!
