From the owner: Sage Studios specializes in wedding, senior and portrait photography. We know the best photos -…read morethe ones you will treasure forever - are those which capture that special moment in time while reflecting the personality and uniqueness of each individual. Your photographer shouldn't be just a "face behind a camera", but someone that has a sense of who you are. Senior portraits are a blast for us! Your photos won't be the "same old thing" as everyone else in your class. Getting out "on location" and doing your photo shoot where you are comfortable and relaxed is our preferred method. Yearbook pictures are taken in the studio and, if you wish, more conventional photos. For weddings, the future bride and groom actually meet their photographers during the initial consultation. As they discuss their plans and desires for their special day, the details are worked out to ensure all the important and special photos are covered. There is no charge for this initial consult and its the best way to find out if we are the company for you. Family, individual and business portraits are done either on location or in the studio - depending on your preferences and the style of photography you'd like. Feel free to give us a call and we'll talk!

Amanda was wonderful as our wedding photographer! She was very helpful in planning out the timing…read moreof the day and was great at keeping us on schedule for the photos. The photographs came out beautifully, and the book she designed is an automatic keepsake. I definitely recommend working with her. Edit- I don't know why it says San Francisco by my name, but I'm in metro-Detroit.

Oh my goodness, I love Amanda. I really do- and I am not the only one. :) Amanda's business has…read morebeen mostly word-of-mouth and she has become crazy-successful. She is a super fantastic photographer who does weddings, engagement photos, senior photos, family, kids - all that fun stuff. She does some of the posed type photos, especially if that is what you are looking for - but she excels in taking photos with a little more artisic flair, photos that truly capture people in the moment, and photos of the potentially missed details. We did engagment pictures with Amanda and our wedding photos in 2007. My sister used her for her wedding in April of 2009, and she is doing two friends weddings in 2010. As you can see, the whole word-of-mouth business works amazingly well for her. Amanda's personality sold me on her services even moreso than her work. My husband HATES having his picture taking - so when we met with Amanda and it was obvious how awesome and hilarious she is, it became obvious that she was the perfect choice for us. Let me tell you, we were not disappointed. (And it helps that her prices are more than reasonable) Our engagement pictures were super fun, and a great way to get my husband even more warmed up to Amanda prior to the wedding. We brought our dog along with us and she took some pictures of us with him- for the record, she is great at photographing animals too. We had a few hundred pictures when she was done- and she releases the rights to the photos so you can make copies however you want, as many as you want, as cheap as you want. Bonus! Wedding day - Amanda met us at my parents house to take some "getting ready" pictures. She then followed us downtown Detroit to photograph the wedding, and to Woodward between the Fox and Comerica Park for some more fabulous pictures. Amanda is not afraid to do what she needs to do to get a good picture. For one of the photos that I posted to this listing, she was literally lying down in the middle of Woodward to get the best angle. Now, I should mention that she was sick as a dog through all of this. Her personality still sparkled and shined, but it was obvious that she was not doing so hot. If I remember correctly, she came to our wedding after being in the hospital for a while. Needless to say, she wasn't able to come to the reception, but sent her now-cohort Jen to take over. I think this was one of a handful of times that Amanda has had to send in a replacement. Sad as I was that Amanda wasn't going to be able to join us, I was definitely pleased with the way Jen covered our reception. She tooks tons of pictures and didn't leave until she was sure we had gotten every picture we wanted. My sisters wedding went equally well, and she was very happy with the end results. I give her credit too, because my sisters videographer was a pain in the a$$ and Amanda was very professional in not telling him just how obnoxious and sucky he was. :o) We hope to have Amanda do some family pictures for our sons first birthday in the summer- if she can capture adults and dogs, I am sure she can capture some amazing things with cute little buggers too. Amanda is awesome - I think that with most of her customers, she becomes not only their photographer but also a friend. Love her.

I paid her almost 1000$ from pictures and canvas. I been calling her and she keeps telling me soon in a week or two they will be ready and now she's not answering my phone calls or my text messages and it's been over 6 months. I think she scammed me. So if you do pictures with her don't pay her in advance till you get you pictures. I'm filling lawsuit against her!!!! Sooo disappointed!!!

She was welcoming, caring and very open to our ideas and any concerns we may have had during our session. Not only did Trudi move quickly, she was very professional and patient.

We have known Bri Mason and family for the past 5 years! Not only is Bri an amazing photographer,…read moreshe is also an amazing human being! She has done several of our family's photos, including a newborn shoot with my 2.5 year old! Her work is truly impeccable! In fact, being a parent herself, she is very patient with young children, entertaining them and making them laugh, so that she captures the best pictures possible. To the previous lady who stated she had a negative experience: Your photo shoot was FREE for goodness sake, and you still complain? I am sure that if you had emailed Bri or called her, she would have done everything in her power to rectify any misunderstandings. A suggestion, please be grateful when someone volunteers time out of their busy schedule to do you a favor, rather than bashing them. Signed with Confidence, Randy

I hired Marcie to do maternity photos for me last spring. Right from the beginning, I knew I would…read moreenjoy working with her because she was so friendly and detail-oriented. I explained that I was looking for something different than just typical maternity photos and she did not disappoint. My portraits are beautiful, vibrant, and I've received so many compliments on them. On the day of our shoot, Marcie was on time, and I never felt rushed or hurried. She took her time with me and gave great instructions about how I should pose (because I'm not a model!), and we had a lot of fun laughing together as she worked. I would recommend Marcie to anyone looking for a great photographer in the Ann Arbor area.

I am reluctant to write this review because I don't want to contact Rosy and have her booked up but…read moreher photography skills are too good to keep quiet about.... I met Rosy through a friend and when I was looking for amazing photographers for my daughter's 1st birthday, our mutual friend recommended her. I booked the shoot during a blizzard but Rosy was there and excited to do our shoot. Her studio gives off a fun, retro vibe and exudes Rosy's crisp, clean photography style. My daughter was TERRIBLE during this 30 minute shoot. I thought the pictures would come out blurry due to her all-out craziness but when I got the proofs I was blown away. Rosy not only managed to capture beautiful pictures of my baby girl, but pictures that capture her personality. I don't know how she worked her magic to get these amazing shots but she moved around with my daughter and honored the craziness that comes with a toddler, which I was so grateful for. I have most recently done a family photo shoot that also included a few engagement pictures at the DIA. Rosy knew exactly what style I was going for and knew where to take us to get the best shots. We now have a 1 year old and a 4 year old but she again managed to snap the perfect shots between toddler melt downs and run offs. We selected one of the hottest and humid days of May but our pictures are nothing short of magazine worthy and again, capture our family's personality and bond. She is simply amazing at what she does and adds a sense of calmness that is appreciated when you are preoccupied with perfectly capturing your most important life moments.

**Please keep in mind this is an initial review - we have had our engagement portraits taken and…read moreI'll update once we have our wedding weekend shot by SLS** The process of finding a wedding photographer had been a lengthy one with a lot of disappointments inbetween. With my fiance living several thousand miles away, we had set up a week and a half of all-wedding madness with appointments around the clock including one with Silver Lights Studio who had been recommended to us by some friends. Setting up the appointment was easy. Rosy and Shaun are located quite a while away from us in Allen Park but we arrived to a cute studio with vintage touches and bright accents - it's a happy place. We discussed our needs, our expectations, pricing and everything included in their packages. I'll be the first one admit that I am not an easy person to please but impressing my Dad is even more than a challenge. He's extremely quiet and doesn't seem to express his opinion but he liked their drive and their creativity, the brightness of the colors and their all around-fun attitude. Their albums are of high quality, their hourly rates are fair and they're okay with shooting outside of their 'quirky fun' style - they're flexible and open to ideas. After weighing our options, we signed on the dotted line. We took our engagement photos with them a few weeks ago at the DIA which is of particular interest to me. We took photos outside and inside and both Rosy and Shaun came along with plenty of ideas for our shoot (which we were happy to give a 'yay' or 'nay' to) and the open-mindedness to take a few photos in areas we had in mind (like in front of the Diego Rivera mural which is a personal favorite of mine). Although we were somewhat stiff at times they made us feel relaxed and open and we ended up having a lot of fun. They're a new studio and always so busy with clients but they take the time to address my concerns, answer my questions and take notes on my ideas even though my wedding is next year. We can't wait for them to shoot our wedding next year - I'll be sure to report back!
