Every single photo and video in these galleries were captured at REAL weddings! In the wedding industry, it's not uncommon for photographers to fill their portfolios with photos taken at "styled shoots". Styled shoots consist of models, hired to pose as brides and grooms, where the scenery has been set up for a photoshoot at the perfect time of day, in a controlled setting. The problem with that, is those are not real once-in-a-lifetime moments. They aren't a good indication of how a photographer handles fast-paced schedules, bad weather or unappealing scenery. We are proud that every single photo or video in our portfolio is of real couples in real moments, so you can see what we're really capable of capturing in the moments that matter!

I'm Kristyn, your friendly wedding photographer and videographer! With a knack for blending in like a stealthy paparazzi, I focus on getting up-close and personal to document the emotions and candid moments that make your wedding uniquely yours.
Since 2008, I’ve been photographing weddings across Michigan, and in 2017, I added videography to my services. I work with a talented team of professionals who share my passion for telling your story through stunning visuals.
As a dedicated wedding photographer and videographer, my goal is to turn your wedding photos and videos into lasting memories. From spontaneous laughter to heartfelt exchanges, I’m here to capture it all. My team and I love weddings and fully immerse ourselves into creating a work of art with your memories at the center of it.

*the information given in this section does not apply to Simply packages.
Yes! We offer the following discounts:
-5% off for military and public service members (first responders, nurses, teachers)
-10% off weekday weddings (Monday-Thursday)
-10% off December- March
-5% off November and April
Do you offer discounts?
Yes, we travel! We have valid passports and have shot weddings in different parts of the world! If you are having a destination wedding, we ask that transportation and accommodations be covered.
If you are in Michigan or the surrounding states/ provinces we do not charge a fee for fuel costs, as we consider that to be a typical business expense.
However, in some circumstances, if your wedding is more than two hours away from where we are based (Spring Lake, MI), we may ask for one night’s accommodation if it is an early-morning start time and late evening end time. This is on a case-by-case basis and we will always be upfront about whether this will be required.
Do you travel and is there a fee?
Our general rule is that we guarantee 50 photos per hour of shooting time. It's nearly always more than that, but that's the minimum that you can expect! We don't limit the number of images we include, so if it's a good image, it's included!
We will go through the photos and hand select the best ones, removing ones that are out of focus, unflattering, or are very similar to others and we'll fully edit them to provide you the highest quality images. You will receive a personal usage license so you can download and print the full resolution images from your online gallery.
How many photos should I expect to receive?
All of our base packages include up to 6 hours of coverage. Additional hours can be added based on the timeline of your wedding and your individual needs. We understand that weddings are not one-size-fits-all, so we will help you develop a timeline that fits your plans and allows us to capture all the best moments!
How many hours are included in your packages?
That's the great thing about our flat booking fee! You don't need to decide on a package before you reserve your date with us! Depending on availability, you can upgrade your package at any time up to two weeks before the wedding.
You can also add certain options up to one year after your wedding, such as the full video, raw video footage, albums, prints, etc.
I'm not sure which package is right for me just yet, do I need to decide before I reserve my date?
Absolutely!
Your invoice allows you to make secure, online, interest-free payments anytime for any amount up to two weeks before your wedding date. If you need extra time, we offer payment plans that allow you to pay up to 12 months AFTER your wedding date with a low, 5-10% interest rate.
Do you offer payment plans or installments?
Once we confirm that we have your date available, we will send you an agreement to sign electronically. We require a flat booking fee of $1200 that goes towards your package, and can be paid online through our secure payment site. Once the agreement is signed and the booking fee is paid, your date will be reserved!
