Documentary Wedding Photography Studio in Michigan

As a professional photographer, I am passionate about documenting stories through photographs, on the streets of Detroit or Los Angeles, in everyday scenarios like at family gatherings, on vacation (even 80 feet below underwater!) or home alone with my wife and my dog.  Spending the entire day with the bride and groom presents unbelievable moments to capture emotional, personal and unique images that collectively share the story of this once in a lifetime event!  Images that will be looked at and shared for generations to come that will make you relive and experience those moments again and again. Not every wedding photographer understands this or even attempts to photograph your wedding as a documentary photographer.  Most will certainly capture “candid” photos here and there, but will spend most of their time trying to stage and pose their images while real life is happening all around them. You will need to ask yourself what is most important to you when deciding between others and what we have to offer as Michigan’s premier documentary wedding photography studio. Consider the following reasons as you explore your wedding photography options:
