Hi, I’m Tracy Grant—the Photographer and Owner behind KarunaPhoto. I photograph Traverse City Engagements, Weddings, Families, and people/events all over northern Michigan. I started KarunaPhoto because I saw a NEED for a compassionate, approachable, stress-free photographer.

Tracy is wonderful to work with and a very talented photographer. I have worked with her at a variety of events from weddings to specialty dinners to a chef's potluck. She always brings a smile and a lot of care and professionalism to each job. I am always excited when I see her company on the vendor list!

Best decision we could have made. Communication was wonderful from the start and the photos are amazing. I felt Hdi has a gift of photography and what will look great. From the little details they were on it. She made me feel like family. Mostly, her images are what we have left of our day and I’m so glad we went with Timeless Imagery. Don’t cut your hours short - so you don’t feel rushed. Best advice I could give.

They took care of everything so calmly, it actually helped me relax. The photos are breathtaking, they captured my husband’s huge smile when he saw me for the first time. The video literally makes me cry every time I watch it, and my friends say it feels like something from Netflix. They made sure to include all the people that mattered to us, so no one feels left out. I love the small candid ones, like my grandma laughing at the reception. Those are the things you never want to forget. They were more than just photographers, they were like extra support for me that day. I’d choose them again a million times.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

I am Kimberly Hibbard. Why am I a photographer? After I graduated from Eastern Michigan University with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and Hearing-Impaired Education, I didn't plan to be a photographer until one day. I picked up my camera and took some random pictures. I posted some pictures on FB and several friends told me, "Girl! Seriously, you need to start a photography business and I need a family session! " Here I am. I have been doing it for seven years now, over 100 weddings and I love it!! I have amazing clients and I consider them to be family.

Kimberly was truly the best photographer we could have asked for! She was always responsive and truly was able to bring our vision to life. She went above and beyond and we will always be grateful that she captured our engagement photos and wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone who asks!

Soul Stories was born out of a love for the moments words can’t quite hold — the quiet glances, the laughter between vows, the way love feels when it’s seen rather than said. We’re Sena and Shelton, a husband-and-wife duo based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, capturing weddings across the Midwest and beyond. For us, photography isn’t just about the picture — it’s about the story within it. We blend fine art detail with genuine emotion to create timeless images that feel alive, so when you look back years from now, you don’t just remember how it looked — you remember how it felt.

We had a lot of fun with the spontaneous shoot! We felt super comfortable with the whole process and the vibes were there!

Lauren Perrin Photo

  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Big Rapids, MI

Hey there, I’m Lauren! I’m a wedding and boudoir photographer based in Grand Rapids, MI. I believe your photos should feel like you—natural, honest, and full of emotion. No stiff posing here—just real, unscripted moments that tell your story. I’ll help you feel confident and comfortable, whether it's your wedding day, a boudoir session, or a just-because adventure. Outside of photography, I’m usually hiking, doing Jiu-Jitsu, or traveling with my wife. Let’s create something timeless and unforgettable together!

We all know that hiring vendors for your wedding is stressful, but Lauren was stress free and my BEST choice! She communicated with me throughout the entire planning process and helped me iron out all the details surrounding the big day. As someone who didn’t use a wedding planner, this was huge for me because I had no idea what I was doing. Lauren helped me through this by providing some timeline templates, and answered any questions that came up (even if it didn’t relate directly to photography). Aside from planning, I knew I had made the right choice when we shot our engagement photos. Obviously the final product is why you hire a photographer, but Lauren provided high quality photos AND a great experience! My husband does not like his photo taken and will usually morph into a toddler who throws tantrums when asked to stand in front of a camera for too long - but not with Lauren. We had so much fun shooting with her, she really made it an awesome experience and my husband actually enjoyed himself! For our wedding day we had exactly the same experience, just on a much larger scale. We had a few last minute changes to the plan, and Lauren made sure that for every sacrifice that was made, that there was no detail or photo opportunity missed. She even spent 20 minutes in a broom closet with my mom and I to try to get my bustle buttoned before the dances. Everyone who interacted with Lauren on that day had nothing but great things to say about their experience working with her, and she was absolutely my favorite vendor on my wedding day. Our photos were sent to us before the date they were promised by and they are absolutely PERFECT. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives! Lauren is phenomenal at what she does, but more than that she is an amazing person. I truly feel like I’ve gained a friend by working with her and I will never use another photographer to capture my memories. I’m so lucky to have found her, and if you get the opportunity to do so I would 1,000,000% recommend it!

For those who seek more than just photographs, we offer a rare opportunity to witness the beauty of truth in its purest form.

I can’t put it into words how amazing of a person and photographer Faith was for our wedding July 2024. From getting engaged, to picking a venue, and trying to find our next most important vendor (photographer) it was stressful. Once we found Faith, i was passed feeling stressed and i was feeling relieved. She understood my vision, was receptive to my opinions. Faith was available for phone calls and answered so many questions i had along the whole way. She helped me with things big and small, and the day of the wedding her magic really began. She made me, my fiancé, bridal party and family feel SO comfortable, and my fiance said “i feel like a model” because the way Faith was directing and perfecting every shot. She made it fun, and memorable and we couldn’t have imagined our day without her. She was on her feet all day, hustling and was always excited to capture that next shot and hype us up. AND THEN WE GOT THE SNEEK PEAK, and i had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I was and still am speechless at her work. She captured moments we thought we would forget one day, and now we never will. Faith is everything we could have wanted and more. Thank you Faith for all you do. Can’t wait to book you for baby showers, birthday parties and have you be apart of our life’s crazy journey!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Nigel as our wedding photographer. From the very beginning, he made us feel comfortable, understood, and truly cared for. His eye for detail is unbelievable, he captured moments we didn’t even realize were happening and somehow managed to bottle the entire feeling of our day into every photo. Nigel was incredibly easy to work with: kind, professional, creative, and so calm in the midst of all the wedding-day chaos. He guided us without ever making anything feel posed or forced, and the result is a gallery of photos that is even better than we could’ve hoped for. Every image feels alive. Every shot tells a story. We’re so grateful we chose him. If you’re looking for someone who not only delivers breathtaking photos but also elevates your entire wedding experience, Nigel is the one.

Hello, I'm Kaley — the founder and lead photographer at KTP for the past seven years. What began as a creative passion has grown into a thriving business, and I’m so grateful for the journey so far. Four years ago, my deep love for storytelling through photography led me into the wedding industry. Since then, I’ve discovered a special connection to destination and elopement weddings. There’s something incredibly moving about witnessing couples exchange vows in meaningful places, surrounded by those they love most. Capturing those genuine, emotional moments is truly what drives me.

Kaley Toth Photography was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. From our first interaction, Kaley's communication style was fast, genuine, and friendly - she made us feel at ease right away. The quality of their work is excellent, with a moody, romantic style that captured the essence of our special day. Kaley helped pose us in a way that felt natural and not overly posed, and she really put her all into making us, who are typically awkward in front of the camera, look wonderful. We are thrilled with the final photos and would highly recommend Kaley Toth Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

I document love for a living, and what drives me is capturing authenticity in the moments that I am privileged to become a part of with my clients. I've been photographing weddings for over a decade. I know how to make you look good, and how to take away the "overwhelmed" fake vibe most couples feel and replace it with meaningful photos in 1/250 of a second.

Kay was referred to me by two different brides. I had seen their wedding pictures posted and reached out immediately. The turnaround time for receiving our photos took TWO WEEKS. I know brides that didn’t get their photos back for months. It was so special to be able to see them so quickly after our wedding. Especially considering the exceptional quality and attention to detail in each image. The final edits were flawless, and the photographer managed to enhance the natural beauty. I got every single photo I had put on my shot-list. But what stood out most was when we noticed that we didn’t get a picture of my parents alone and I asked her if we ever took one. She offered to photoshop a picture of them together and the final result was unbelievable. You would have never known they were not standing next to each other. My parents could not be happier with it. I wholeheartedly recommend Kay to anyone in need of capturing their special day. Their talent, professionalism, and commitment to delivering outstanding results make them a top choice. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!
