wedding photography true to you,
your relationship,
and the magic OF MICHIGAN

Distilled into heirlooms that will last a lifetime

Your wedding means more to you than endless close-ups of a bridal bouquet.

You want the big emotions captured and the little moments memorized.

You’re all about the people and less about the centerpieces.

I’m right there with you.

big moments.
little moments.
and everything in between.

I’m here to help you remember them all through photography.

Your wedding day goes by fast; I’m talking Delorean 88 mph fast.

There is no possible way that you’re going to be able to absorb everything important about your wedding.

But that’s why I’m here; to tune into the emotional moments. I’m here to catch the expression on your face when you first catch a glimpse of your bride, or how your best man choked up during his speech, and your flower girl getting distracted by shiny objects.

You can’t be everywhere at once – but I’m here to see for you. So that way when you look back at your photos years from now, you’ll remember how it felt because I was there to help you see.

LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!

look like a perfect match?

I’m so glad to hear it!

Before booking, let’s make sure this is the best possible fit for you. Because Iife is so impossibly busy, an in-person meeting isn’t always possible.

That’s why they invented Zoom!

I want to be sure that we are a great fit for one another. I’m going to be accompanying you throughout your wedding day – so getting friendly early on is the best way to set the stage for a fantastic wedding day experience.

LET’S MEET!

Aloha! I’m Angie

bold. vibrant. authentic. cinematic.

Hi there! I’m Angie and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Michigan wedding photographer that just moved back to the area after 17 years of living in Maui, Hawai’i.

Your wedding day is one you’ll revisit for the rest of your lives and you want amazing photographs to remind you of every moment.

I believe in moment-driven photography and epic portraiture.

Ya know – the kind of photos that make you laugh and cry. Or maybe laugh-cry.

And also the photos that make you say WOW. Because that image of you and your sweetie and gosh darn does looks like something ripped straight from a movie. But it’s your photo from your wedding.

The flowers will wilt, the dress will hang in a closet, and the guests will leave – but your photos will stand the test of time. It is my aim to make you feel what your wedding day was like through your photographs.

i believe in heirlooms

IMAGES TO RELIVE YOUR BEST DAY FOR A LIFETIME

Creating a visual legacy that will outlive you and your spouse is what I believe in with all of my heart and soul.

That’s why every wedding collection comes with an album and wall art to adorn your home.

This means that after your full online gallery is delivered, we set up a time to create your very first family heirloom – an album that will allow you to relive the memories of your wedding day any time you choose at the turn of a page.

Designing and delivering luxury heirlooms that take you back to the moment you said “I Do” is one of my favorite parts of this entire process because you’ll get to showcase these beautiful images in your home for years to come.

EXPLORE ALBUMS AND PRINTS

Every story is unique, every story is timeless

That’s why cookie cutters are for cookies – not for weddings!

Your photos won’t look like everyone else’s, and that’s a promise. I take time to get to know the two of you so I can create irreplaceable art just for you.

questions? Bring them on!

Absolutely. I don’t believe in holding images hostage for an extra fee. What you see is what you get.

No matter what Michigan wedding photography package you choose, I deliver your images in an online gallery with the print release so you can print them whenever and wherever you choose.

I typically shoot around 50 images per hour for weddings with guests. That being said, depending on what is going on, I may shoot more or less. During cocktail hour, for example, I will not get as many shots as during the ceremony and romantics because there just isn’t as much happening!

Heck yeah. I know the best vendors who can help craft your incredible wedding day. Coordinators, Hair and Makeup, Videographers, DJs, Caterers, Florists – I’m here to help you every step of the way! If you’re looking for a wedding venue, check out my comprehensive list!

Rain? I’m not afraid. Look, when Mother Nature doesn’t cooperate, I’m more than happy to step in with my knowledge of light manipulation so I can still give you those romantic photos you’re dreaming of!

Yes! I’ve done 15+ years in Maui, weddings in Colorado, and California, Washington, Arizona and beyond. This girl and her Platinum Medallion status is not afraid to travel!

Send me an inquiry through the contact page or the form at the bottom of the page so we can make sure that your date is available! The very first thing we will do is schedule a Zoom call so we can see each other face-to-face! It is SO important that we ensure we’re a good fit for each other! Or if you’re in Chelsea, let’s grab a coffee!

From there, I send you a contract that requires a 30% non-refundable retainer to secure your wedding date! Once we lock that in, we can start chatting about your big day!

I have VERY limited availability for portrait sessions. Drop me a note and let’s see if we can make it happen!

RESERVE
YOUR DATE!

I can only book a limited number of weddings each year. Let’s make sure yours is one of them!

First step, drop me a note in the contact form below so we can touch base!

Next, we’ll set up a Zoom call to make sure we are a good fit!

If we both feel good about our meeting, we’ll share a virtual high-five and I’ll send over all the good stuff so you can lock in my services for your wedding day.

READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP?

Let’s get this party started! Drop me a note and tell me about your big day.
I’ll be in touch within 24-48 business hours.

Award-winning Ann Arbor Wedding Photographer specializing moment-driven and cinematic portraiture. Personalized wedding albums, wall art, venue expertise, and Hawai’i weddings are what sets my heart on fire.
