Mikayla was everything we wanted and more. From the very beginning, she was incredibly attentive to our needs, making sure every detail was covered. Her calming presence was a huge relief on such a busy day, and she truly was the best to work with. The photos she captured are stunning and perfectly reflect the joy and love of our special day.

Truly the best investment in our day! Mikayla is such a dream to work with and our photos were absolutely stunning.
When working with me, your story is photographed with an intentional balance of emotion and refinement. As a Michigan wedding photographer serving Detroit, Northern Michigan, and Chicago, my approach goes beyond simply documenting moments — it preserves the atmosphere, design, and feeling of your wedding day in a way that is both timeless and deeply meaningful.
Blending editorial composition with documentary wedding photography, I capture not only how your celebration looked, but how it felt. The images we create together are designed to feel beautiful, elevated, and enduring — allowing you to relive the experience with the same emotion for years to come.
My clients are professionals and creatives planning thoughtful, planner-led weddings throughout Michigan and destination locations. With a documentary-forward approach on both digital and film, I work closely with your wedding planner and creative team to ensure every moment is captured in alignment with your overall vision.
Capturing in-love moments since 2017.

I wanted someone who was detail oriented, a great communicator, and someone that both me and my husband clicked with. Mikayla checked all of those boxes (and more)!
