Take a peek into Riley and Stephen’s Downtown Detroit Engagement Photos. Riley and Stephen both work in Downtown Detroit so the city has a special meaning to them. Naturally, that made it a wonderful choice for the backdrop of their engagement photo session. We began our photo session at the Detroit Library, one of my favorite places to shoot. The Detroit Library is a classic and timeless piece of historic Detroit architecture. Not only are the grounds beautiful, but the historic feel of the building lends well to creating timeless photos. We then moved into the lawn of the Detroit Institute of Arts, an iconic Detroit locale. I fully recommend the DIA’s grounds if you’re looking for downtown detroit engagement photos. Last we ended up downtown at Campus Martius popping champagne!

Holly's
approach
As part of the most well documented generation, it's important to tell your piece of history purposefully, authentically, and in a meaningful way for your future generations. That is what I do.
At the heart of my work is a deep passion for capturing genuine, heartfelt moments — the ones that truly tell your story. Over the years, we've become known as a premier photographer for small weddings in Michigan, specializing in intimate celebrations where every connection feels personal and every detail matters.
With more than 20 years of experience, I bring not only technical expertise but also a calm, reassuring presence that allows you and your loved ones to feel completely at ease. My approach is unobtrusive yet intentional, ensuring each moment is documented naturally, without interrupting the flow of your day.
When you trust me to photograph your wedding, you’ll be free to fully experience and savor every genuine moment, knowing your memories are being preserved with authenticity, care, and timeless artistry.
