The best of the best!!!…read more My husband and I dreamt of having our engagement photos taken at the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes and Pierece Stocking Drive, and when we found Rayan's portfolio we knew we had to meet her. Rayan is one of the most genuine people we have ever met. She is someone who honestly loves to capture moments of love. She gives back so much more than beautiful photos. Rayan gave us an experience we will never forget during our engagement session and her presence on our wedding day was exactly the kind of support we needed. We could not imagine anyone else navigating the day so closely with us. Rayan's work ethic and creativity is unrivaled, words honestly can't express how incredible her talent and personality are. We will always go to Rayan for life's precious moments. If you're thinking about meeting her for your wedding, do it. You won't be disappointed.

From the owner: We specialize in portrait and wedding photography, specifically Lake Michigan Beach photography and…read moreoutdoor weddings and portrait photography. While we will take photos in the Frankfort/Traverse City area, we are also willing to travel where-ever you would like to go! We love family photographs at sunset on the beach, beach weddings, photographing engaged couples, and photographing people having fun! My style is photo journalistic.

The results will be a combination of semi-posed and candid shots. I believe in providing our client with casual, easy going experiences which translate into beautiful, relaxed portraits that showcase the beauty and intimacy of you and your family. I would like you to come away with beautiful photos that you will treasure for life.

I simply cannot say enough good things about Heidi. I recently got engaged in Door County,…read moreWisconsin. I was looking for a scenic engagement at cave point, and Heidi delivered exactly that.  From the instructions given over the phone ahead of time, to the absolutely amazing prices, she is the absolute best! Our photos turned out beautifully, and we have already received so many compliments on the shots.  She was extremely timely delivering the results afterwards, and her communication was top notch. She captured the beauty of cave point, while also capturing such a special moment of me and my fiancée. I felt all of the pictures we took look very natural, and none of them looked forced or uncomfortable. I would recommend Heidi to anyone looking for a photographer in the area!

She was incredible to work…read morewith, was able to easily and efficiently line everyone up (including kids and difficult adults ;) ) in various creative shots and in a fun way, and is clearly very talented as evidenced by the beautiful shots that came of our session that will be cherished for decades to come. What's more, is that Heidi was able to do this on little more than two hours notice, coming to our aid in an emergency situation! Truly above and beyond. We are so grateful and would gladly recommend her services to anyone. Thank you, Heidi!

Some highlights: -Dan goes out of his way to establish a relationship with you as a couple. He gets to know you, asks insightful questions, sends you gifts and messages that he shows he cares and takes your wedding seriously, and (most importantly) he does the research needed to capture your wedding in a couple-curated way. -Dan and his team are wonderful to actually have at the wedding. They're non-intrusive, fun, and helpful in ways outside of just capturing great photos and videos. All lovely people. -The actual photos and video are AMAZING. We have framed and catalogued so many of these, and are very grateful they will be with us forever. Also, we like filming and editing our own videos of life events in our free time, and even still I'm just blown away by the quality of the videos we received. They're so much fun and wonderfully produced. -While it was our least favorite part (as we felt a bit pressured by time constraints), his team that assembles our final photo album were kind and helpful and worked with us for 2+ hours to get our album to where we want it to be. Fortunately, the final product was immaculate. Can't recommend Dan and his team enough. They are caring professionals who made our wedding that much more special. Brad & Rachel

What a great guy to be around!…read more Paul is calm, funny, easy to talk to, and...(obviously by these reviews), a great photographer. We called only a day in advance, yet he squeezed us in after a day of THREE different photo shoots. Long day for him! Even after having so many photography jobs (and us telling him not to rush), he had our photos to us in just two days. The photos are BEAUTIFUL and most importantly, real-looking. Instead of doing a lot of editing, he used the natural light during the photo shoot to our advantage and I was wowed when I ended up liking every photo he'd taken. Would definitely recommend!

She somehow managed to get us some wonderful portraits of the 11 of us, each individual family, and captured some gorgeous candid shots as well. This was quite a feat with 5 children (4 of which were toddlers!) She's a miracle worker! Love the quality of the images she sent us! Highly recommend! We will be using her again.

After talking with several close friends that recently got married, we asked if they had any…read moreregrets about their wedding day or anything that was a 'must have.' They stated they wished they had a videographer to capture the day and a movie for years to come in which they could show their kids in the future. Through our wedding planner, we found Chris Miller.  After having a chance to look at some of his other work ( both photography and videography) we knew whatever he captured would be perfect for our wedding day.  Chris took the time to get to know us to ensure he would capture what we were looking for. He really went the extra mile to even procure extra video equipment so that he could capture our special day with his vision and our vision in mind.  The movie that resulted was phenomenal and something we will cherish always.  He was very skilled at obtaining the footage throughout the ceremony without guests or anyone noticing while getting amazing shots.  Whether for a wedding, special event, or just capturing the the beauty of Door County, Chris is very talented, puts together amazing work and we can't recommend him enough!
