Let’s Break Away from Tradition and Plan Your Perfect Michigan Wedding or Elopement
Hey There Friend!
Together, we'll create a day that speaks to the heart of your relationship, without the stress.
I'm Gabbie - your Michigan Wedding and elopement Photographer.
You’ll often find me curled up with my Kindle and a latte—stories have always been my thing. So, it’s no surprise that I found my way to becoming a Michigan wedding photographer. Telling your love story through photography is truly an honor, and after 5 years of capturing intimate weddings, I’m still amazed by the beauty of marriage.
When my husband and I planned our wedding, we quickly became overwhelmed by all the rules and traditions. It felt like a lot of stress for something that was supposed to be meaningful. So, we made the decision to elope. Choosing an intimate Michigan elopement was the best decision we made—it was all about us, our love, and doing what felt right.
That’s exactly what I want for you—an authentic, stress-free wedding day where you can focus on what truly matters: each other. Whether it’s an intimate lakeshore ceremony or a relaxed, non-traditional wedding, I’m here to help you make your day truly yours
