Detroit Wedding Photographer ServicesMichigan Wedding Packages
The greatest commitment two people can make deserves the same level of dedication in return. Your wedding day, documented with the same care and intention as you bring to your vows.
Approachan experience rooted in presence, not performance.
Your wedding is cared for with a grounded, true to life, and focused approach. You will soon be making the highest of promises two people can make to each other at your wedding, all in the name of love. That is not something to be taken lightly or diminished.
It is something to be shouted from rooftops and shared with your family, friends, and future children. Something to be truthfully preserved for the walls of their homes and the legacy they will create.
I am focused on preserving the elegance and legacy of your day — so your photos remain as enduring as your commitment.
Heirloom photography, not just for today.
Intentional half-day collections to full wedding weekend experiences, built for couples who want their day documented without feeling rushed or pulled out of the moment.
Whether I’m present for your intimate union or your lavish multi-day celebration, the benefit is the same: calm, steady guidance and honest, true-to-color imagery that captures not just what your wedding looked like — but how it felt.
You’re searching for a photographer who sees beyond the obvious. A photographer who notices your parents’ reactions, the in-between glances, the moments unfolding just out of your line of sight. You want clear guidance without being bossed around, a steady presence you trust, and images that will live on long after the day ends — photographs that become heirlooms — a lasting record for your children of the day you married your best friend.
Alaina is just lovely and so is her work. Every part of the process was well organized, professional and thoughtful.
The memories captured are pure and beautiful. She had it all covered and with special touches. Perfection!

Alaina was great to work with! She captured so many special details on our wedding day. She was attentive and so sweet and hyped us all up during photos. She was timely with responses and prompt on the wedding day. I’m so glad we had Alaina on our special day!

Frequently asked questions

My home base is Detroit, Michigan. I serve wedding couples all around Michigan and worldwide.
If my work resonates with you, I’d love to have a conversation. Wherever your celebration takes you, I cannot wait to chat through the finer details with you.

There are no travel fees for local Detroit-area weddings. Weddings over 50 miles from Metro-Detroit have minimal fees for car-travel.
If your celebration is out-of-state or destination, I will provide an all-inclusive quote including travel prior to booking. Depending on where your love story takes us, travel expenses may include a roundtrip flight, hotel stay for an appropriate number of nights, and transportation.

I deliver all galleries online sent to you via email with instructions on how to download for safe keeping. You can share this gallery link with family and friends, and even order prints directly within your gallery.
