Hi I'm Katey! Your storyteller behind the lens, capturing the pure magic of love against the breathtaking backdrop of the Upper Peninsula and the serene shores of Lake Superior. I'm not just a photographer, I'm a hopeless romantic with a passion for freezing those genuine moments that not only make your heart skip a beat, but will last a lifetime. Based in the enchanting Upper Peninsula, I've fallen head over heels for the natural beauty that surrounds us. From lush forests to the pristine shores of Lake Superior, every location becomes a canvas for love stories to unfold.

OK... Right out of the gate, my first to do was to book my photographer. Katey was absolutely my number one go to, and I knew I had to try to get her for my wedding. From the first contact, to the end of the night and even to today she has been beyond superior. She worked so dang hard to keep us relaxed and captured everything I envisioned. She's calm, cool and collective. I can't say enough about her pictures, the way she captures the details that you wouldn't necessarily notice on your big day is incredible. I can't say enough about her and can't wait to book her for another shoot one day.

Victoria recently did my hair and make-up for my elopement in Bayfield. I love that she could travel to me to alleviate the stress that morning of getting ready. I honestly didn't have a specific inspiration in mind and was teetering between half-up do versus an up-do, and the masterpiece she created was like having the best of both worlds. In addition, even though I did not provide any inspirational pictures, nor had she met me before this appointment, the details she incorporated fit me, as I often did some of the techniques to my hair. I highly recommend Victoria!!

I started my photography career back in 2010 and have captured hundreds of stories over the years. I found my true passion in intimate weddings and elopements in 2016 when I rode in a chairlift to the top of a mountain to document a small ceremony in the company of 50 of their closest family and friends, their dogs, and an aged bottle of scotch that acted as a unity candle. From that moment I decided to specialize in capturing intimate weddings and elopements in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan!

Hi, my name is Vivian. I grew up in the beautiful state of Oregon and have a huge black great dane. He makes my heart sing! Art has always been my entire life. Aside from wedding photography, I also teach dance for a living and write in my spare time. Some of my other hobbies include hiking, camping and traveling. I’ve spent a lot of time backpacking all over the world and made a ton of amazing memories doing it.

Vivian Claire did such an amazing job on our wedding. She was VERY punctual. She attended our rehearsal to get an idea of our everything would photograph and then was at our wedding day THE ENTIRE DAY, which was amazing because she captured so many little details for us. She was like a ninja and sometimes she was at places we didn’t even know to get awesome shots. We got some of those classic/traditional wedding pictures, but Vivian also captured some non-rational pictures which we loved! She has so many ideas that were amazing! She even brought a speaker to play some music to get some even better shots! Vivian is quiet,but an amazing photographer, who does amazing work!

Our wedding would not have run so smoothly and flawlessly if it wasn’t for Connie and her team! Connie was our day of coordinator. She went above and beyond as a day of coordinator by having multiple meetings prior to our wedding day to ensure that we thought about every detail to make our day just as we envisioned it. As an out of state couple, Connie and her team were flexible to meet with us based on our busy schedule. Additionally, she perfectly executed her job the day of our wedding by doing all the behind the scenes work that would have caused us stress. She did things like ensure set up/ take down of decorations, coordinated with other vendors to ensure they were ready on time, ensured we had tried all of our hor’durves during cocktail hour while we socialized, and much more.

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers

Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

The BEST most nerve wracking decision we made for our big day!!! I was so nervous to go this route but trusted my gut and I’m so glad I did. FM was incredible at walking me through the process and the full service package is worth WAY more than what you pay for it. I felt incredibly prepared for flower arrival from all the phone calls, videos, and paperwork they sent including detailed recipes and schedule for the week. We had some hiccups with Hurricanes and delayed shipping. They called me to initially tell me they would be a day early. Then when they didn’t arrive called again and explained they’d been held up in customs(obviously no ones fault). They then sent out an entire extra box of blooms to be sure we got everything we needed. Flowers were beautiful!!! Spending time with my sisters and family putting them together was truly the most fun wedding prep. My guests and coordinator truly couldn’t believe we had done all our own flowers, and the best part??! We saved ourselves literally thousands!! We would recommend FM to anyone for any occasion anytime.
