Michigan Wedding & Portrait Photographer I'm April, a full-time wedding and portrait photographer serving Michigan and beyond. No worries! I've got you covered!

I am a joyful person who loves to laugh and enjoy life. Are you afraid of being in front of a camera and worried you won't know what to do? I work with all my clients to help them feel relaxed, at ease, and confident in who they are. I combine traditional posing with a mixture of movements to create an experience unique to me. Whether you're graduating from high school, getting married, welcoming

a little one, or simply interested in capturing this season of life, I want to turn your moments into lifelong memories.

The wedding day goes by so much faster than anyone tells you. You spend months making decisions about flowers, invitations, timelines, menus, music and all the little details. Then suddenly, you are standing at the altar wondering how the morning disappeared so quickly.

That is why I always encourage couples to leave room to breathe. Take a few minutes together after the ceremony. Step away from the crowd. Walk somewhere quiet. Hold hands and take in the fact that you just got married.

You do not need to spend every minute of your wedding day accomplishing something. Some of the best memories happen when there is nothing on the schedule except being together.

And those quiet minutes make some of my favorite photographs.

I think there is something really special about photographing a couple who has been together long enough to know each other's little habits.

The way one reaches for the other's hand without thinking.
The inside jokes that make absolutely no sense to anyone else.
The look that says everything without either person saying a word.

Those things are easy to overlook when you are taking pictures.
They are also the things I want to remember.

Your relationship does not have to look like anyone else's. It does not need to be perfectly posed or picture perfect.

I want your photographs to feel like you.

A little laughter. A little quiet. A lot of connection.

Because when you look back at these years from now, I hope you see more than two people who looked good in a photograph.

I hope you see yourselves.

One day, you will not remember every detail of your wedding day.

You probably will not remember exactly what was served at dinner or whether the flowers looked perfectly arranged on every table.

But you will remember how it felt.

You will remember the way your spouse looked at you during the ceremony. You will remember your dad's face when he saw you for the first time. You will remember the friend who cried harder than you expected. You will remember the people who traveled from far away just to stand beside you.

That is what I want your photographs to hold onto.

Not just what your wedding looked like, but what it felt like to be there.

Because the best wedding photographs are the ones that make you stop years later and say, "I remember this."

There is always a moment on a wedding day when everything gets quiet.

Maybe it is the bride sitting alone for a few minutes before everyone arrives. Maybe it is a groom looking around the room before the ceremony begins. Maybe it is a parent seeing their child dressed for their wedding day for the first time.

Those moments are easy to miss because they are not part of the timeline.

But years from now, they may be the moments you wish you could step back into.

That is one of the reasons I love wedding photography so much. I am not just watching for the big moments. I am looking for everything happening around them.

The nervous hands. The deep breaths. The way someone looks at you when they think you are not paying attention.

Those are the pieces of your wedding day that tell the whole story.

08/27/2026

There is something so special about photographs of people who have loved each other for a long time.

The way they look at each other changes.
The laughter comes easier.
There is history in the little things.

And that is exactly why I believe photographs of couples are important at every stage, not just during engagement or on the wedding day.

Love deserves to be documented in the middle of the ordinary years, too.

Whether you have been together for six months or sixty years, I would love to tell a little piece of your story.

A little wedding photography advice from someone who has watched a lot of wedding days unfold: Leave room in your timeline.

Not every minute needs to be accounted for. Give yourself time to breathe. Time to hug your mom. Time to actually look at your husband or wife during your portraits. Time for something unexpected to happen without immediately feeling like you are behind.

Some of my favorite wedding photographs happen in the spaces between the things on the schedule. Your wedding day is not a production you have to rush through.

It is a day you only get once.

You do not need a Pinterest-perfect outfit, a dramatic location, or a professional modeling background for your engagement session.

You need clothes that make you feel like yourselves. Choose something you can move in. Something you feel confident wearing. Something that feels like you. And please do not be afraid to bring a second outfit.

Your engagement session is not a test run for being photographed perfectly. It is an opportunity to spend an evening together, get comfortable in front of the camera, and create photographs that feel like the two of you.

And honestly, that is my favorite kind of session.

08/17/2026

Your wedding gallery should not feel like a collection of poses. It should feel like your wedding day.

The people who showed up for you. The little moments you almost missed. The nervous excitement before walking down the aisle. The tears. The laughter. The dance floor. The quiet five minutes together when you finally get a chance to breathe.

Of course I want you to love your portraits.

But years from now, I want you to look through your gallery and remember the entire day.

One of the questions I hear from couples planning their engagement session is, "What are we supposed to do?"
My answer is always the same. You do not have to know what to do. You just have to show up as yourselves.

Walk together. Talk. Laugh. Hold hands. Steal a kiss. Tell each other something ridiculous. Let me guide you when I need to, and forget about the camera the rest of the time.

The best engagement photographs usually happen in the moments when you stop worrying about having your picture taken.

08/12/2026

There is something about being photographed in the middle of a season of life that makes you realize just how quickly it all moves.

The engagement season is short. The wedding day is even shorter.
That is why I love giving my couples more than just beautiful portraits. I want you to have photographs that take you right back to how it felt to be there.

The way he looked at you before the ceremony. The nervous laugh. The way your hands found each other without thinking.

If you are planning a 2027 wedding, now is a beautiful time to start talking about your photography.

Your wedding deserves to be remembered for more than how it looked... it deserves to be remembered for how it felt.
