Hello Love, I'm Taylor Rae!
I am so excited for you to get to know me!
I'm Taylor, your (hopefully) soon-to-be wedding photographer! I am a 2026 bride and cannot wait to elope and marry my best friend later this year. I am so excited to finally experience this from your perspective, and planning my own dream day brings a whole new appreciation for all of you! The attention to the fine details that really feel like you and capture the essence of your relationship is something that shouldn't only be captured, but truly seen and appreciated.

So why wedding photography?
Well, I LOVE love (and who doesn't love wedding cake?!)
My goal is to provide you with beautiful, timeless photos that will become a cherished heirloom for you and yours for years to come. It is a gift to not only capture your day, but to also feel the love and laughter just as you do on that day. Preserving the moments of your wedding day is an immense honor and it brings me joy knowing I am able to provide you with timeless images that will become a cherished he
I would love to hear about your story and the vision for your wedding day.
Where are you based?
I am based in West Michigan, but travel all throughout the state, the Midwest, the U.S., and internationally.
How many pictures will I receive?
While I typically over deliver for every wedding, I would rather underquote couples than to make a promise I can't keep. So, here are the absolute minimum number of photos you would receive:
8 hours - 600 photos
10 hours - 800 photos
Can I include my pet(s) in my session?
HELL FREAKING YEAH!
I love meeting your fur babies (especially if it's a corgi).
Is travel included?
150 miles are included for local wedding collections. Anything outside of this range will consist of a travel cost.
For destination weddings, travel is calculated directly into the collection cost.
What style photographer are you?
I am a Fine Art & Editorial photographer. I use a combination of poses and prompts to create and capture candid yet classic moments throughout your day.
I am interactive with my couples, helping guide them through their engagement session and wedding day.
Do you offer film photography?
Yes! This is something new I just started offering! It is an incredible add-on option for your day.
