You’re Getting Married!!

YAY!

Weddings are pure magic! This is what it’s all about - total happiness, larger than life smiles, confetti in your hair, and the best memories all wrapped into one fabulous day. Your photos should reflect that joy, vibrancy, storytelling and, of course, some epic black & white photos!

I’m so grateful to say that my calendar for 2025 is currently closed.

I look forward to focusing on this new season before opening my calendar for 2026 bookings!

If you would like to learn more information and are planning a 2026 or 2027 wedding in Metro Detroit, Ann Arbor, Chicago or beyond, feel free to scroll here and on my Instagram for more information and updates!

“Courtney took the time to get to know us on a personal level and we had such a wonderful time with her. I left it up to Courtney to do her magic and guide us in the right direction and it was incredible what she captured! Our pictures turned out FABULOUS and I have never gotten so many compliments on photos in my life by friends and family. I had tears in my eyes after viewing the photos and I wouldn't dream of having anyone else photograph us!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

“Courtney didn't leave us guessing at any step of the process and set clear expectations about when we would receive our photos; in fact, we even received them early! Courtney was easy going and relaxed during the day and she handled small (unavoidable) hiccups with ease. We have really wonderful photos, thanks to Courtney, that will help us remember and relive our special day forever!”
