KIND WORDS

Wellers Carriage House Saline wedding photographer

“We found Natalie at a LGBTQ wedding expo and she proved herself to be not only professional but open and accepting, which is so important for members of our community. Thank you Natalie for your beautiful work. I have and will continue to recommend her to others.”

“We loved all of our photos — she has such an artistic eye for angles. Bonus: She loves animals and was more than thrilled to capture our dog, Stoli, in all the shots for the rehearsal and wedding. LOVE HER!”

“Natalie was an amazing photographer for our wedding day! She captured all the right moments and you could truly tell she loved what she was doing! She is also so adapting to any changed plans and brought a fun personable energy to our day.”

Photography has always been a part of my story, inspired by my grandfather’s Polaroids that turned fleeting moments into lasting memories. That deep appreciation for preserving time is why I fell in love with wedding photography. As a Brighton, Michigan wedding photographer, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful these images can be. Wedding photos can become a family’s most cherished keepsakes—a reminder of love, resilience, and the fleeting nature of time. For me, photography isn’t just about the images; it’s about preserving the people we love and the moments that define us.
