Best Photographer Grand Rapids Near Me

Cler Harkins: Just like mostly everyone else, my husband and I had an AMAZING experience with Amanda (amazing may even be an understatement). She was kind and friendly, and an overall joy to have on the day of our wedding. We had so many obstacles when it came to the timeline of our engagement photos and even the day of the wedding, but Amanda took every challenge and ran with it. I would highly recommend her to anyone and everyone for your special event.

Leigha Nunnelly: Amanda was absolutely incredible for our big day. I haven’t even seen all the finished photos entirely yet, but I can say with confidence you want to hire Arrae Photography for your special moments. She was a huge help in making the day run smoothly, and the previews of photos so far look absolutely incredible!! I will definitely be coming back for all my future family photos and special events!!

Sarah Haggart: Positive:ProfessionalismVery professional services. My experience was altered immensely by the pandemic, but I truly appreciate the hard work put fourth by Amanda.

Renee Coulter: Amanda is absolutely amazing! She did our engagement, wedding, and second wedding (thanks covid). I can’t imagine having anyone else with us through this ride! She works with you, talks through every detail, and handles a crowd like no other! She takes amazing pictures and makes you feel comfortable while doing it. We didn’t know the area and she found the perfect spots for the most amazing pictures! As A lgbtq couple it isn’t easy to know who is going to work well or if things may be awkward. No worries here! Love love love her!!!

Rose Kodsy: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueAmanda was so much fun to work with! We can’t thank her enough for capturing our beautiful day perfectly. We had to postpone due to covid and she was so responsive and accommodating. So many favorite pictures from the best day ever! We can’t wait to use her again for family photos in the future.

Kelly Harness: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueAmanda was amazing to work with! Her photos captured our special day beautifully! She was so pleasant to work with and responsive to any questions we had. We would highly recommend her for your special photo needs! Kelly & Steve Moorman

Corey Block: We cannot say enough positive things about Amanda. My partner and I wanted to do our engagement session on the beach - Amanda was totally up for a hike and a last minute addition of our dog. She was spontaneous, so fun and easy to work with, and made us feel so comfortable. After our engagement session we were even more excited to work with her on our wedding day. She captures even the most fleeting special moment so that anyone who sees her pictures is drawn into the emotion of it. Our family and friends continue to comment on how fun she was to work with and the beautiful pictures that she took. Amanda is simply the BEST!

Tyne Kreiner: I am known to be someone who rarely stops sharing her feelings. With Amanda, it's truly hard to find the precise words that adequately describe how amazing she is to know, let alone work with. She recently photographed our wedding... and the experience was nothing short of magical. I could list a ton of reasons I loved the experience with her and why I would recommend her to anyone, anytime, to shoot anything. However, here are a few:1. She communicates like a champ prior to the event. Calls, emails, FaceTime, whatever - she is on it.2. She has confidence like a boss, but is still able to take ideas/suggestions before, and during, the shoot.3. Amanda, quite literally, fit in perfectly with our families and friends. By the end of the evening, everyone wanted to be her friend, adopt her, and make sure she got home safe.4. As any expert in her field - she nailed making us feel comfortable during the process. (I have been with other photographers - they can get real stern, demanding, etc).5. Her personality is a genuine, compassionate, patient, and professional one. She mixes being friendly and professionalism better than any I have ever met.6. She was in our price range. You'd think work like Amanda's would cost you a zillion dollars - BECAUSE THE WORK IS THAT FANTASTIC, PEOPLE. However, she is significantly well priced for the hard work she provides. Well worth the memories to bond with her during the wedding AND get the artwork after.7. She encourages you to ENJOY the moment when you forget to do so with all the business that comes with events. She helps you live in the now, which is hard to do at weddings, so you can remember what you can of the day and use her photographs later to remind you. She's got you.Again, these are just a few things - but they were HUGE to us. It's literally just bonus after bonus. She's a gift. Her talent is incredible. Do not second guess yourself if you're needing the most epic photographer and immensely kind human - please look no further. I cannot speak highly enough about her... so I guess I am grateful I could find some words for my new friend. Stop reading this and HIRE HER ALREADY! Love you, Amanda!

Rachel Holland: Don’t give it a second thought when choosing a photographer! After seeing how our engagement and wedding photos turned out we will choose Amanda to be our photographer for every big event/milestone in our lives.

Phing Chov: Amanda is one of the best photographers in West Michigan. She has years of experience and skills to back it up. We hired her for a session to take family photos. It turned out to be a bad day for photos outdoors, so we had to change location last minute. We were also a difficult family to deal with, but Amanda took it with stride. Definitely recommend!

Jonathan: Amanda is talented, organized, and I couldn’t be more happy with how she ran the photos for my wedding. We did a DIY wedding, and she basically was our wedding coordinator for the day. Without her, our wedding would not have been as organized as it was because she was able to prompt us when we were running over for time. She is kind, she has well thought-out shots, and she was very flexible for whatever shot we wanted or any other family member requests. 10/10 would book again.

John Malefyt: Amanda did a wonderful job capturing our wedding day. Despite bad weather, tight timing, and some disorganization on our part she managed to take beautiful photos that we'll cherish for a lifetime.Amanda also exceeded our expectations on timing, returning all of our photos in only a couple weeks. Not only that but these were delivered with the best presentation I've seen for digital files and makes for an excellent keepsake and storage for such important photos (see the attached photo).My wife and I are extremely thankful we selected Amanda to be a part of our event and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented photographer. Thank you, Amanda!

Fangyuan ren: Amanda was really good. She was friendly but not obtrusive, especially during my wedding ceremony. So many photographers are walking all over during the ceremony and really detract from the wedding. She didn't at all. Also the photos that she took, turned out really nice! It is fun for me to re-live my wedding through all the pictures! My husband and I are so glad to have her do our wedding photos.

Lizz Croote: Amanda did our engagement and wedding photography, and we can't recommend her highly enough! Her work is beautiful, and she has the experience to make the day run smoothly. We genuinely enjoyed getting to know her and spending time with her throughout the process, and we are in love with our photos and will treasure them for a lifetime!!

Kelley Young: Absolutely love the family and newborn photos Amanda took in her studio of our family of 4 this past June. I am putting together digital photo books for family as Christmas gifts with some of these photos, and am still nearly tearing up at the moments she captured. Also, she was wonderful to work with! Thank you for the perfect photos!

Abigail Sterling: Amanda is the best! She was able to help me out in a pinch to meet a marketing deadline. Not only was she able to work me into her schedule quickly, she took beautiful photographs that captured the essence of my event space. Her work speaks for itself but she is also a delight to be around and smiles come easy when she is around :) Grab her up if she is available!

Lauren Schaftenaar: My husband and I were beyond thrilled with our experience with Arrae Photography! We had 7 month photos taken of our baby girl and family shots too. Amanda was a blast to work with, and she was incredible with our baby and getting her to smile and look oh so cute! She is a creative genius when it comes to where to have photos taken and props to use as well. We were very happy with our experience and will absolutely use her again and recommend her to everyone we know!!

Eric Monsma: My wife and I are super happy with Amanda; she did a great job with our wedding photos! Her price was low, her agreement is easy to understand and our pictures turned out GREAT! Amanda is really nice, easy to get in touch with, and was just fantastic to work with - we would highly recommend her to anyone!

Shelby Shay: We were very happy with our wedding photos! I am happy that we also did an engagement session before the big day as we got to meet Amanda before all of the wedding craziness and it put my mind at ease knowing that on the big day, the photography was not something I would have to be worried about! We were not dissappointed! Also we loved the flashdrive the pictures came one. Very cool!

Brittany Lutz: Amanda worked hard to make sure we were happy and comfortable while shooting on our wedding day. She has such a positive personality which made the day so much fun. I had a blast taking our pictures before the ceremony! She is professional and knowledgable while always being one step ahead on what needed to happen next. Organization skills were top notch! The photographs we got back are beautiful and I'm so glad to have them as a reminder of one of the best days of my life! I wouldn't hesitate to book her again. Thank you, Amanda!

Teresa J: Kelly is absolutely phenomenal and an extremely talented photographer! Not only is her work stunning, but she is so kind, personable, and fun to work with. My husband and I drove 3 hours to have her take our maternity photos along Lake Michigan and it was so worth it. We weren't too familiar with the area, but she was super helpful with helping us pick a location. Not only was she very friendly and professional, but she also was so accommodating and picked up a floral bouquet we had created for our shoot for us! Kelly has amazing attention to detail and it shows in her work. Her work is one-of-a-kind and her images are high quality. You will not be disappointed hiring Kelly for any event or photo session. We would gladly book her again in a heartbeat!

Herb Gilbert: Kelly did an amazing job! She was professional, accommodating, and extremely talented. The pictures were wonderful. I would highly recommend Kelly Sweet Photography.

Sarah Raske: My husband Ryan and I could not be happier with Kelly and her artistic talent! She was one of a kind and an absolute joy to work with. From the beginning, Kelly made things so easy for us, especially since we were from Chicago planning a destination wedding. We felt relaxed, comfortable, and stress free. She was responsive, kind, accommodating, gracious, trusting, and professional. Kelly went above and beyond to make our day as perfect as we pictured it! She truly has a gift and her passion for her job and capturing the essence of love at each wedding is incredible. We are so lucky to have found this wonderful photographer!

Stellaluna Events: We hired Kelly to travel up to Glen Arbor, Michigan for our beach wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made in the whole planning process! As a wedding planner, I knew that photos were important to me and as I toyed around with "less expensive" photographers I ultimately decided a good photographer was worth the investment and let me tell you Kelly was worth EVERY PENNY! Not only did we get back stunning photos from our wedding day, but we also got to work with a true artist that cared about us on our wedding day. If you are considering having Kelly capture a big moment in your life, just do it. You will not regret it! Thank you so much Kelly!

Chris Bouza: I'm not sure how to convey how much Kelly helped us by not only providing a crazy number of amazing photos, but also in helping run the wedding itself. We didn't have any kind of wedding planner for a smaller wedding and she helped out when we didn't even ask and made the day a complete success. Do no, for a second. hesitate to enlist Kelly for her services. The friends and family who have seen the photos rave about them. The delivery of the photos was prompt and professional. She even included prints that we were not expecting.

Deirdre Lieder: We are so pleased that we hired Kelly as our wedding photographer! She does amazing work, and I am convinced that she can make anything look beautiful. Not only is her photography beautiful, but she was very easy to work with from beginning to end. I've heard of wedding couples who hire great photographers but they are difficult to work with. This is not the case with Kelly. She is very helpful, fun, easy-going, and professional. You have made the perfect choice if you choose Kelly as your photographer!

Christina Noe: Hiring Kelly to photograph our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. It was a little difficult spending about 18% of our total budget on our photographer, but I simply could not find anyone else that had the skill level and style that I wanted. And you absolutely get what you pay for! From the beginning Kelly was excellent with communication and a pleasure to work with. She arrived early on our wedding day, was professional while also being personable and fun, and I love that she seems genuinely personally invested in making our day memorable. Our engagement and wedding photos turned out absolutely perfect. It's a bit of a cliche in the wedding world to say this but when everything's over, other than your new spouse, truly all you have are the photos. Don't settle. You absolutely can not go wrong hiring Kelly!

Carolyn Ferrari: Always a great experience! The studio is fantastic and the offerings at Naughty Bettie are beautiful and well curated.

Steven Schuitema: I went with my girlfriend to watch her photo shoot and it was amazing. It was inspiring to listen to the makeup artist and photographer stories and what drives them in this passion. This is not some glamor shots in the mall, this is a life-affirming experience! Highly recommended.

Tonya H: I REALLY want to have this experience

Maria Licari: Elise and her team are absolutely incredible! The whole process was seamless and left me feeling like an absolute queen!Naughty Bettie Boutique is attached to the photography studio and the pieces Elise curates are breath taking and there is a style for everyone. The day of the shoot my hair and makeup artist listened to my vision and brought it to life. The photos Elise took are insanely beautiful. She is so sweet and has a magical way of capturing the essence of you in a photo.Rachel helped guide me through the hardest part...the photo choosing process. She was patient and kind throughout and accommodated a digital meeting since I temporarily live out of state. Although it was online she made the whole process so fun and relaxed it felt like two friends going over photos. I got my prints today and I am absolutely floored at how beautiful they are!I cannot say enough good things about Elise and the whole experience. I cannot wait to book another shoot with her.

Lana McEachnie: We had a blast at our family shoot! Elise brings in her make-up artist and hair stylist and they work their magic while we all had cocktails and laughs - what a blast! Not only did we end up with a beautiful selection of prints, but also an afternoon of fun captured on video by her assistant for an additional priceless keepsake. Invest in yourself and put yourself in her hands. You will be so glad you did!

AmyJo Johnson: I've had brand photos and boudoir photos done at ModBettie and they are still my FAVORITE pictures of me!! I constantly get compliments on my branded shots.If you have the opportunity to have a session with Elise, it is an absolute MUST. You will feel AMAZING during and after AND those pictures will bring you right back to that amazing feeling you had during the session. ❤️Would recommend over and over and over again!!

Kel Lat: Great venue, but it is all due to the staff knowing what works and helping to bring your beauty to the lens.

Lexy Smith (Alexis): Absolutely fabulous! You walk out of your shoot feeling like you can conquer anything!

Catherine Wasylewski: I had a boudoir photo shoot done here about a year ago. I sprung for the pro makeup and hair add on for my package-- I'm not a "girly girl" and I really wanted the whole experience. Start to finish, it was a great experience. They took the time to get to know me before the shoot. They solicited my feedback on the makeup and when it wasn't exactly what I had in mind, they fixed it until it was. Elise (the photographer) helped me pick out my outfits from the lingerie I brought with me. They have a well-apportioned lingerie shop on-site for anything else you might need, but being on a budget I decided to use what I brought. I was nervous, but Elise told me exactly what to do (they also send you prep information well ahead of the photo shoot to make sure it's as perfect for you as possible). I was going through a really devastating break-up and this photoshoot helped my self-esteem recover more than any other thing in the aftermath. I felt so accepted and sexy even before the photos came back. When they did, I was absolutely amazed. I didn't even need for them to be retouched-- Elise is a magician. I was so impressed, I bought my sister a package as a gift so that she could experience the same thing... Everyone really should. I can't say enough great things about them!

Kristen Zoetewey: I had my photo shoot with Mod Bettie last year and had an amazing experience! Elise and Nicolette put me very much at ease for the shoot. Elise is a wonderful posing coach and when I first started to see the pictures she was taking, I had tears! She is an expert at capturing one’s beauty and best expressions! Everyone ought to have an opportunity to be seen through Elise’s camera lens. I would definitely recommend!

Nicole Falconer: Positive:Professionalism,ResponsivenessI felt so important and so valued when I shopped here. The staff were so helpful and just lovely.

Audacious Gumption: Positive:QualityThe images are always incredible and I love how they go above and beyond to make every subject feel and look their best.

Casey: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ValueDo you want gorgeous photos? Do you like having a powerful and empowering team of women around you? Yes! This is the place to go!

Katrina Peshka: I haven’t had the chance to book a session with Elise - yet. But I have seen her work in person, and it is one of the most empowering things I’ve ever witnessed. Just watching the experience made me want to get in front of the camera, and I was camera shy!Mod Bettie has also managed to create one of the friendliest feminist communities on the internet in their #SquadBettie Facebook group. This company is grace and class in every way.

Kristie Badder: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueMod Bettie Portrait Boutique takes such amazing pictures!!

Miranda Sorensen: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ValueI haven't been able to schedule my own photoshoot yet, but my friends who have said the experience was amazing 👏 I've followed Elise and Mod Bettie for quite some time now and I'm always amazed at her beautiful photos.

Ann Jenks: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,ResponsivenessI scheduled a photo shoot. I am awkward and self-conscious. The support I received is so empowering and affirming! I am very much looking forward to working with them!!

Kaitlin Decker: I am obsessed with everything ModBettie. Elise is the best photographer I have ever worked it. She is the most positive human! Her direction makes the shoot so easy and comfortable. By the time you leave you feel like a queen. Every women should experience a self love moment. My 9 year old daughter had a shoot with Elise and constantly talks about the time she felt the most beautiful. That is a gift that will be cherished forever. Self confidence and self acceptance is so important at any age. Thank you to the team at Mod Bettie for having us. We love you.

Erica Brethauer: I had a chance to watch Elise in action while I shopped in the store. She was very professional with the clients she was photographing at the time. We were able to chat for a few minutes as well and I hope to soon be able to schedule a session with her for myself!

Joanna Chulick: Let me add to what will be a never ending pileof praise for Elise Kutt and Emily Frew for an amazing day at Mod Bettie- A Grand Rapids Portrait Boutique! Emily made me look like Barbie (in a good way 😂) and Elise, of course, made me feel incredibly sexy and comfortable at the same time. 😈And it was SO FUN! 😍This is something I wanted to do for myself for a long time and I am so glad I did. If you’ve been considering a photo session with Elise, do it! You won’t regret it.

Anna Tsaturova: Jodi was fantastic! Her website is lovely - you can check out photo ideas and schedule online. She communicated quickly with me via email to answer my questions. She spent a good amount of time learning what I needed and my preferences. She gave great direction on posing to get the best options. We spent significant time going over the photos- discussing lighting and body styling - before I chose my favorite photo. I had the option to look over some photos before taking more and an outfit change if I wanted it. I highly recommend hair and makeup styling as well as bringing multiple clothing options. I appreciated her insight on the styling of my clothes. I tried two different companies to get an updated business photo and they were horrible - I’m so glad I found Jodi!!

Michael Danic: Fantastic professional Team. Really well done and would recommend for any expo, conference or college program to get the most professional headshot ever.

Shawanna Rapier: Jodi is amazing! I found J photography on a Google search. My experience was beautiful. I felt really special, comfortable and paid attention to. Jodi is very attentive, ask questions to see what best suits you and has a passion for the work she does. I am definitely going back and recommend J photography. I appreciate you Jodi and thank you for my Portrait headshot. My kids love it!

Lori Alburg: Jodi is phenomenal from start to finish! The appointment setting, communication, and photo shoot were all top notch. The headshots came out exceptionally well done. We'll be back when we need new ones!

Jonathan Tonks: Jodi is a true professional. She is efficient, insightful, and produced a high-quality product for my business. I am extremely pleased with the final result.

Ernie Farias: Despite being camera-shy, I’ve had a great and comfortable experience here each time.

Wesley Swartz: Had an amazing session with Jodi! She took phenomenal application headshot photos for me. She knew the exact look that I was going for and did an excellent job capturing images to meet my specific needs. She was friendly and fun but still focused and efficient. She was clearly very dedicated to making sure I was happy with the pictures. Thanks so much!

Nathaniel Oregon: Jodi is great! She has keen eye for detail! It was very low stress for our family picture. She was not only personable and friendly but professional. I am only disappointed that I did ask/pay for more pictures from her because the one we got was great! She was worth every penny!

Jacob Mullin: Jodi was the absolute best! Super accommodating on short notice, and made it an enjoyable experience. Recommend 100%!!!!

tenchaps: I am so impressed with Jodi‘s skills at capturing a variety of moods with different poses and helpful guidance in my professional photos. She takes her time to make sure that the client is relaxed and at their best. I had so many great images to choose from and, by the time I left, I had been able to choose the images I loved. Thank you, Jodi! What a treat.

Cristian Guillen: It was great working with Jodi and got the headshot I wanted.

Adam King: Jodi is great. Scheduling was easy, she took the time to work with me, and the turnaround on the headshots was very fast. Highly recommend.

Jennifer James: Highly recommend J Photography of Grand Rapids. Jodi was easy to work with and produced great results. She used our time together efficiently and she know her stuff!

Garhett Morgan: I’ve had some headshots done before, and I was dreading having to do it again. Jodi was so happy, helpful, and knew exactly what she was doing. I would recommend this studio to anyone!

Rachel Hahn: Arielle is the most incredible fine art wedding photographer. Our portraits came out so amazing. The details shots are incredible- I truly felt like every photograph was straight out of vogue. Arielle is such an artist and very efficient at her work. She didn’t miss a single shot or special moment, and was so calm, cool, and collected all day. They were amazing at giving direction and catching every candid moment. She completely blew my expectations out of the water and her editing style is so timeless and cool. She also had teaser photos to me 2 days after the wedding and the full portfolio finished exactly a month after. Working with Arielle was so easy, and I cannot recommend her enough.

Katherine Bouma: 5 stars doesn't begin to cover how phenomenal Arielle and Nathan were for our wedding. Professional and yet so kind. So talented and yet they quietly captured our story at every step of the day. When showing pictures of our day to friends and family, they marveled at how amazing our photographs turned out. My husband and I cannot begin to recommend them enough! Such lovely people and amazingly talented storytellers. Will definitely be requesting them for future photography sessions.

Michael Thompson: Arielle and Nathan were wonderful photographers to have on-site for our wedding in New Orleans. They were exemplary professionals and exercised calm demeanors throughout the entire wedding weekend, especially when dealing with a few hurdles that sprung up for us. They travelled to New Orleans for the very first time to photograph our welcome party, ceremony and reception, and we clicked immediately once in-person. The way they captured the New Orleans landscape and us within that setting, you'd think they'd been shooting in that location for years. Our collection of photos are simply incredible and timeless. Arielle's eye and the confidence with which she approaches her work was a joy to watch. To say that numerous pictures left us in awe, understates the point. Hiring Arielle was easily our best and most reliable vendor choice we made throughout the entire process. We knew early on that her work was special, but after getting our wedding photos back it made us relive the joys of the weekend all over again in a way that we hadn't anticipated. She's the type of artist you want to capture all future and significant events in your life because she elegantly highlights small moments within larger settings and you feel the energy/emotion that comes with that. Arielle and her husband are also incredibly kind, patient and down to earth. We loved our experience and highly recommend booking Arielle Teft Photography!Michael & Jourdan

M Langer: Professional. Communicative. Personable. Globally published and an overall show-stopping photographer.I was enthusiastically hopeful when I requested for Arielle to be the photographer at our wedding after receiving a glowing referral from my florist. My fingers were crossed hoping that she was available; relieved and elated when she quickly replied back confirming our date. I rushed the same day to put the deposit down knowing frequently published photographers are in high demand.The day of she was punctual and ready to commit to all her time for us. She was polite and unassuming, never barged, pushed-in, was at all unpleasant, or seemed out of place. Her movement was natural and felt in tune with the day like she was a guest. There was never an awkward moment with her, as she possesses a positively friendly aura and vibe.We were not disappointed when we received the gallery of our wedding. Her unique eye for detail, her style, and the way she captures everyone’s candid emotions is incomparable with other copy-and-paste wedding photos seen countless times over again. Classic and timeless is her forte—the photos she takes will stand the test of time and age well. My partner and I consider ourselves fortunate, and are very thankful, to have been able to have our wedding immortalized by Arielle.

Jeff Hoopingarner: We signed the contract, and Arielle booked another event on the same day. She cancelled our contract, leaving us high and dry. Terrible business.

Kelsey Schnittgen: Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness,ValueArielle & Nathan were excellent. I wanted natural, organic photos that were visually stunning, natural, and unstaged, and they accomplished all of this for us. We didn't even realize they were there. I would highly recommend them,

Ayanna Berry: Arielle and Nathan were AMAZING! I could not recommend them enough. My husband and I are beyond grateful for the memories that we have captured in our photographs for the day. When looking for a wedding photographer, I knew that I wanted someone that had an editorial style. Additionally, we wanted a high level of candidness. Our photographs capture all that and more.From a personal perspective, Arielle and Nathan were great to be around the day of our wedding. Their presence was not overwhelming and they worked efficiently to get photographs so that we could still enjoy all aspects of our wedding day.I look forward to a lifetime of being able to enjoy our wedding photographs!

Ryan Parkinson: Arielle was professional and meticulous in our pre-meeting - providing straight forward questions and directions to make sure she was able to be self-sufficient on our wedding day in capturing the images and style we were looking for.She has an elevated and artistic style, and had no problem asking us to pause or adjust to make sure the pictures were just right. The online gallery for reviewing and sharing pictures, as well as the mailed thumb drive again made the process stress-free and streamlined.Truly a professional, a lovely person, and fantastic photographer.

Anna Barry: Arielle and Nathan are the definition of dynamic duo with the perfect touch of elegance. Arielle captures the raw, organic, elegant moments that are so subtle in daily life, but she’s able to focus on those moments and highlight them in every photo. She photographed our intimate wedding ceremony and then our reception 6 months later with Nathan. They made our day so painless. The easiest part of planning our wedding was hiring Arielle. The process of booking to final payment was so easy we didn’t have to worry at all. They are the kindest people and I would love to have them photograph every big moment in our lives. We will definitely be hiring her again. If you’re hesitant about booking, just do it. Your life will be so much easier! My husband and I now have our timeless wedding photos that we will cherish forever as the most perfect day, captured by the most perfect photographers.

Jennifer High: Arielle's work is stunning. The quality in her editing, her work, and her professional working relationships is unmatched. She truly is the photographer that you want for your wedding / engagement photos. She shot both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and has become our family photographer.I hired her because of her eye for design, the beauty in her abstract compositions, and the way her images tell a story. The images we received in our personalized photo book were beyond my expectations. You will not be disappointed when you hire her!

Nadija Kadunic: Arielle was seriously one of, if not the, best decision I made for my wedding (besides marrying my husband lol). Her work is not only beautiful, it’s artful. She captures the most special moments and details with such an creative eye. Not to mention, she was so friendly and easy to work with. She made me feel beautiful and at ease the entire day. I can’t say enough about what an amazing experience I had. And the photos, the photos are so beautiful, so special and unique - I have had so many people express how special the moments she captured were. I couldn’t be happier.

Ashley Schleining: Arielle and Nathan were such a joy to work with and have with us for our wedding day! We booked Arielle for our wedding over a year in advance; then covid happened and we had to change our date and location about 3 months in advance and, by some miracle, Arielle was able to make our new date work! And we are so glad it all worked out - Arielle has such a great eye for unique and special moments and our photos are so beautiful!!

Andrea Schaefer: I don’t even know where to begin. Arielle and Nathan are incredibly talented, and on top of that are genuinely kind people. They seamlessly fit into our day and felt as if they were part of the celebration with us. I think the most special element of their photographs is the emotion they capture. They don’t just take photos of people standing and smiling, they capture moments, and you can see peoples personalities in their photos. Their photos are truly art. I would enthusiastically recommend Arielle and Nathan to ALL couples getting married

Delenor Wilson: HIGHLY RECOMMEND Cathy Seaver Photography!!!! Did a corporate photo shoot with Cathy Seaver. Studio was very clean and professional. Studio is conveniently supplied with all last minute accessories for a great photo shoot. Cathy was very resourceful and prompt with providing feedback on pose positioning. Photo quality... excellent, Photoshoot pricing... very fair. Cathy completely went out of her way to overdeliver an excellent photoshoot session. Flawless!

Lisa Lockwood: Cathy did a phenomenal job with our multi-generational photoshoot. We now have pictures worthy of hanging on our walls! The dance photos that she took of my teenager are gorgeous! It was so hard to choose prints because they were all so good!

Shirley Draft: I'm so glad that Cathy finally talked me into a photo session. She certainly knows her lighting and I now have photos the are worthy of the family archives for future generations. Thanks, Cathy!
