Northern Michigan + Upper Peninsula Proposal Photography
Proposal photography across northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula, with an experience-first focus and thoughtful planning to keep the moment honest. I help with details so you can relax, stay present and truly soak it all in.
Proposals are personal, and the experience matters as much (if not more) than the photos. I take a people-first, experience-focused approach, offering local insight and steady guidance while staying out of the way for the moment. You’ll be supported from planning through to the proposal, with help around location, timing, weather and back-up plans to every tip, piece of advice and reassurance along the way.

Michigan weather can be unpredictable, but we’ll have a backup plan in place! Light rain or snow can add a unique and romantic touch, but if the forecast calls for heavy rain, strong winds, or anything that might disrupt the moment, we’ll have a plan to adjust as needed—whether that means shifting the time, choosing a more sheltered location, or rescheduling if possible.
-
Of course - if you want to include friends/family in the moment and/or day somewhere, we can definitely work together to create a plan to keep the surprise while including those loved ones.

I’ll send you a sneak peek the same day, usually within a few hours.
