Jamie May Photography

If you are searching for a photographer who is talented, thoughtful and genuinely excited to be part of your big day, you will want to hire Jamie!! Jamie's gift with natural lighting and bright edits are attractive and timeless. She is extremely helpful with ordering the pictures as well, that process can be confusing but Jamie took the time to walk us through everything in detail. We hired Jamie for our engagement and wedding pictures... now she has become our official family photographer! Jamie came out for our extended family pictures, our son's 1 year photos and plenty more to come!

I have worked with Jamie on family photos in the past, but more recently, my niece and her fiancé hired her and her team for their wedding. They captured the day beautifully and my niece was ecstatic about how all of the pictures turned out. From a guest and family perspective, they not only took amazing shots of everything, they were unobtrusive, accommodating and efficient all while being friendly and helpful with everything my niece was looking for in capturing her day. I couldn’t believe how many pictures were provided. The pictures were stunning and I am so happy that my niece and her new husband had such a variety to choose from. You are hiring the best if you hire Jamie May!

Jamie May Photographed my daughter Lauren’s wedding in July 2023. She did a fantastic job and as a professional photographer myself I would recommend her services 150%

We love Jamie!! I hadn't thought about how much time you spend with your photographer on your wedding day and I was so glad we chose her! She was fun, professional, and enjoyable to work with. The photos turned out stunning. Overall awesome experience!! Thank you for everything!

I used Jamie to do my engagement photos and she was great! She was so kind and had so many great ideas. She was patient and accepting of my ideas. I look forward to having her photograph my wedding!

Our experience with this photographer was disappointing and unprofessional. We paid for the unlimited package but 4 days before our wedding I was told that 12 hours of coverage was too long. We paid for a second shooter to man a PhotoBooth we had built but the week of was told they couldn’t accommodate and suggested we buy a ring light, so guests can take their own photos. After trying to offer hotel accommodations because she complained about the drive, I was told I was taking advantage of her and was asking for things no one else has. Please keep in mind, I was asking for a photo with our dogs, a last dance photo, and sparkler photos which I was told during our initial call would not be an issue and things she had done in the past. The day of the wedding, Jamie told me she had not done these types of photos before and it is all photoshopped. People in our wedding party and guests all felt like they were putting out our photographer when asking for photos. During our wedding party photos, the group felt rushed and like we an annoyance to Jamie even though we had everything built into the timeline. Multiple vendors and guests heard her complaining about the event itself. When the photos came back, they were nice. It did seem like she was not interested in positioning people during the formals or editing them as several came back seemingly undone. While talking with a guest and I, Jamie asked for the guest’s software and said if she did not give it to her than the guest can just edit the photos because she will not. Thankfully, I do have LightRoom on my own computer and was able to go back over and smooth out some flaws and edit the photos in questions. Overall, I had many great vendors that made the day wonderful. She, however, was not one of them. We had a good experience with her during our engagement session, however our relationship should have ended there. I would suggest she update her contract.

Jamie is AMAZING! She did our family photos growing up and we were so excited she was available for our engagement photo session and our big day. She was so easy to communicate with and she had all details drilled down to a T. Jamie was extremely organized and so fun to be around the day of the wedding. She and Marie were so much fun and made sure we stayed on track. They are both excellent and we are so lucky to have Jamie and Marie to capture our perfect day. Thank you both!

Jamie did the engagement photos and our wedding photos. They did not disappoint. She's very easy to work with and is always looking at capturing the perfect moment. There's a reason why she has 5/5 stars on the knot from everybody she's worked with due to being easy to work with, professional, and quality work. I highly recommend her for your next photo session!

We are so happy we had Jamie to photograph both our engagement photos and our wedding day. I normally am not someone who likes my picture taken as I don’t believe I am very photogenic but I absolutely loved every photo we’ve gotten, even the candid moments! Jamie and Marie were a wonderful photographer team to work with, not only professional but also super fun having them be apart of our day! 10/10 recommend!

Loved working with Jamie & Marie!! They took charge of our bridal party and got all of the shots we wanted plus MORE. They were so lovely to be around and a calming force in an otherwise stressful day. Great quality photos and delivery was ahead of schedule! Don't pass up on working with them for your BIG day.

Jamie was awesome from the engagement pictures to the wedding day. We have so many great pictures to chose from and they were great at making sure we got all the pictures we wanted. They were so friendly and nice and so easy to work with. I would definitely recommend booking them for your wedding. You won't be disappointed!

This was my best choice in vendor, she has such a good eye and is so friendly and accommodating. I am in love with my photos.

We hired Jamie for our wedding and we are blown away by the photos! I had a very specific vision in mind for our bridal portraits, formals, etc., and she nailed every one. She and her assistant, Steve, also took a ton of candid photos of our guests that have been so fun to look back on and made the photos more memorable. They truly did an incredible job and captured details I wouldn’t have even thought of. If you are looking for a classic, timeless photographer, Jamie is for you!

We love our photos and loved working with Jamie and her team. There was good communication before, during, and after our wedding. Everything was above and beyond our expectations. We highly recommend Jamie May Photography!

We absolutely LOVED working with Jamie’s team! They were so fun and easy to work with and accommodated all of our needs throughout the whole process. The photos we received are absolutely stunning!

100% would recommend Jamie May for all your photography needs! Jamie and Marie photographed our wedding in June of 2022 and every single one of our pictures were perfection. Jamie specializes in natural light photography, which is so beautiful and timeless. Jamie and Marie were very professional, fun, and made sure to capture every detail of our wedding day. We will cherish our photos forever. Thank you Jamie and Marie!

The pictures Jamie took at our wedding were absolutely gorgeous- I've never spent so much time starring at pictures, but the ones she took were truly unbelievable! Both Jamie and Marie were such a pleasure to work with, and made our day extra special- I would HIGHLY recommend!

Jamie was amazing! I got the best photos for our engagement shoot and for our wedding day that I will cherish forever!

Jamie is great to work with! She is very quick to respond, is easy to schedule with, and takes amazing photos! The pictures we have from our wedding are beautiful and we will cherish them forever.

Jamie, Marie, and Team are absolutely phenomenal! They were so flexible and fun to work with. We were always in communication and the day was planned perfectly. One bonus, we get to celebrate our reception with them next year. We are so excited!!

Jamie is absolutely amazing. Our wedding was supposed to be in Ludington, MI, but due to the pandemic we had to quickly change our plans to Ann Arbor with only our immediate family. Jamie and Marie made the day. They were able to accommodate our location change and be there for us next year for our vow renewal and reception! I look at our photos all the time and am amazed how they were able to capture how special of a day it was. Taking pictures was fun and easy with them. I am so excited for next years photos and working with Jamie some more!

Where to begin? Jamie is phenomenal. From the engagement session to wedding day. She helped plan and double check our day of schedule, calm nerves when stress was rising, and was available at the drop of a hat to chat through questions. She makes everyone feel comfortable, never misses a shot and LOVES to have fun with you! She also has wonderful assistants, especially Marie. Our bridal party is still talking about how fun they were and our guests keep talking about how late they stayed to get the "best shots". I would recommend her to anyone willing to enjoy their day. Thank you for all you do for couples, Jamie! You are the best.

Wedding planning was not what my fiancé and I had except this year. Jamie took away any worry I had with photography. With having to have limited guest due to the pandemic I expressed wanting as many pictures as possible for family and friends to be able to view and feel apart of the day. Jamie and Marie captured everything! Better yet they were amazing to work with through the whole process. I loved my photos so much I rebooked her next year for our reception! I can’t stress enough how amazing Jamie and her team is. If you are looking for a photographer that will truly capture you and your significant other contact Jamie May Photography right away!!!

If this year has taught me anything is that we need Love, Laughter and Happiness more than ever. Jamie and Marie were amazing and helped bring an everlasting photo gallery of this Joyous Adventure me and Amanda started together. If you are looking for Professional, Courteous, Fun Loving and 2 amazing Photographers to capture the essence of your marriage Jamie May Photography is a must!!! Thank you Jamie and Marie for everything.

Jamie and her team were so wonderful to work with! She photographed our wedding on March 7 and we already have our photos 2 weeks later and they are everything and more than what we were hoping for! Definitely worth the investment and something we will have for years to come. Couldn’t be happier!

We absolutely loved our photos! Jamie and Marie were wonderful to work with the day of our wedding and did a great job making my husband, who hates photos, feel comfortable. They were flexible and easy to work with. Finished photos were delivered extremely quick and a flash drive of our photos came shortly after. Our only problem will be deciding which to print!!

Jamie and Marie were absolutely wonderful! From the first time we met Jamie in February for our engagement photos we knew we made a great choice! Jamie and Marie captured our day beautifully and I can't help but continue to relive the day as I continue to go through the photos. Jamie and Marie made our crew feel so comfortable and we had so much fun having them celebrate with us. For anyone looking for a photographer in the West Michigan area I highly recommend the Jamie May team, you won't regret it! Thank you again Jamie and Marie for your AMAZING work!!

We highly recommend Jamie May Photography! Jamie and Marie were so easy to work with on our wedding day. They made everything run so smoothly and made the process of taking wedding photos so easy. They made sure that they took all of the photos that we wanted and even more that were not on the list. We have a hard time picking out our favorites because we have so many amazing pictures. If you have a chance to book Jamie May Photography for your wedding day and/or your engagement pictures, you will not be disappointed!

Jamie was a pleasure to work with. Connecting and planning for pictures, with Jamie, was a breeze. Jamie, and her partner, Marie, were so kind and supportive. They made us laugh, offered suggestions and made a camera-shy couple look confident and beautiful in every picture. My family and I are still in awe of the beautiful pictures Jamie and Marie captured on our wedding day.

I can't say enough good things about Jamie and her amazing team! She was always very responsive and helpful throughout the whole planning process. She and her assistant were totally calm and organized on our wedding day and helped everything run smoothly. Most importantly, we now have sooo many amazing pictures to choose from! Jamie, thank you so much for doing such a wonderful job capturing our day!

We had an amazing experience working with Jamie May Photography for our wedding and engagement photos! Jamie was extremely professional, responsive, and an absolute pleasure to work with. We actually had an unfortunate experience working with a different photographer and had to cancel two months before our wedding and we were so relieved to find Jamie was available for our wedding date and got back to us immediately to get everything booked, she even made time to take our engagement photos which we absolutely love! Jamie and Marie, her assistant photographer, were so easy and fun to work with, they helped keep us on schedule and made sure we took all of the photos we wanted but also were flexible and were open to any of our ideas and changes in our plan. They both made us feel comfortable and relaxed and our family and friends had nothing but good things to say about them. We are so happy with all of our wedding photos, we have all of the posed photos we wanted and they captured so many great candid moments during the ceremony and reception. I highly recommend Jamie May Photography and hope to work with them again in the future!

Words truly cannot articulate how grateful we hired Jamie and her team to capture our wedding day. Jamie is AMAZING! Seriously, if you're looking for a photographer, look no further. Not only is her work phenomenal, she is so easy to work with, and makes everyone so comfortable. Our wedding photos turned out absolutely beautiful, and Jamie made the day so fun! She's the best!

Jamie was an absolute dream photographer to have for our big day. We first got acclimated with Jamie when she shot our engagement photos. This session was included in our package and was a great way to have an initial meeting and get some great pics for our save the dates. These photos came out great and also helped us feel a lot more comfortable about having Jamie there for our big day as we already had broken the proverbial ice and loved her cheerful easy going personality. As for her work on our wedding day, it was absolutely tremendous. Her assistant Marie was amazing as well and their positive personalities really made the entire photo taking experience fun and painless. My wife and I both look back and are shocked by how many great photos we have since we didn't feel like the photo taking took over our day in any way shape or form like we have seen at other weddings we have attended. Jamie's turnaround on getting us our final pics was such a great bonus as she literally had them to us within two weeks of our wedding. If you are looking for a photographer and are lucky enough that Jamie still has availability on your day, snatch her up ASAP as her work is amazing and you will have beautiful memories to cherish forever.

Highly recommend!! Jamie and Marie captured our wedding day so beautifully!! They were a joy to work with on the day of and made everything go smoothly. Not only did Jamie photograph our wedding she also did our engagement photos which turned out incredible! It has been a little over a month since our wedding and I still have people messaging me about how gorgeous our photos were and asking who our photographer was! You will not regret choosing Jamie May Photography. High quality photos for a great price!!

Jamie did an amazing job photographing our wedding! It was a perfect day and Jamie helped make it go smooth while capturing our favorite moments! I am from out of state and chose Michigan as my destination wedding, I would recommend any bride to choose Jamie May Photography for their photographer! We have had SO many compliments on our sunset pictures, I couldn't have asked for anything more!

Jamie's photos were incredible. She made everyone feel so comfortable, was extremely professional and so easy to work with. She seemed like having your best friend there taking photos. We have had so many comments about how beautiful the photos were and how she captured so much in her photos. We could not be more satisfied with her work.

We loved Jamie May Photography! We first had her do our engagement photos a year before we had our wedding. We had hundreds of engagement photos to choose from, in just a one hour session! We also got them back in days, we were amazed! We knew from that experience, our wedding day photos would be nothing short than amazing. Jamie and Marie were able to capture all of our special moments and more! We had so many great pictures of our guests and little details that we will treasure forever! If you are looking for the perfect photographer for your day, look no further! Thank you again!

Jaime May Photography is outstanding. Jaime and her assistant were very creative and captured excellent memorable photos of our daughter's wedding. I would definitely recommend them!!!!!

BEST PHOTOGRAPHER EVER! There is only one problem-all of the photos are amazing and there are too many to choose from. Jamie and her assistant took the stress away from the day and made it so fun! She is so talented and knows just how to find the perfect light and capture those candid shots that I love. My husband and I cannot stop looking at our photos. Everyone that sees them wants to know who our photographer is. Wish I could give 10 stars!

My family was so fortunate to have Jamie May and her assistant Marie as photographers for our daughter's wedding and reception. As mother of the bride I can say that Jamie and Marie deserve over a thousand stars, they were bubbling with enthusiasm and just fun to work with. The bride and groom with our family and friends were super comfortable, and of course all smiles in working with Jamie and Marie. Our day started with lots and lots of rain, but Jamie and Marie arrived promptly at our designated time. The sun came out as we began the outdoor photos on a beautiful beach by Lake Michigan. Jamie and Marie had many creative ideas for our photos. The wedding photos arrived in a timely manner, we are thrilled, they are beautiful and captured the fun filled day. We found Jamie and Marie to be very professional, creative, and just so wonderful to work with.

I cannot thank Jamie and Jamie May Photography enough for the amazing moments she captured on our wedding day! Jamie makes you so comfortable and so relaxed and you have so much fun with her. I highly recommend Jamie to any future bride or to anyone looking to capture special memories to cherish forever!

Jamie May Photography did an amazing job on our engagement pictures and wedding photos. Our pictures we will cherish forever. I highly recommend them to anyone!

One of the main reasons I picked Jamie is because she is so personable, easy to be around and made taking photos so much fun! My wedding was a year ago and I’m still obsessed with my photos, and how many candid moments she was able to capture! 110% would recommend

Jamie May Photography photograph our engagement in Grand Haven and she came to our wedding in Aruba. Doing a destination wedding can be very unpredictable at times but I wanted to make sure our pictures were perfect. I was so happy when Jamie told me she was able to come to Aruba. She captured not only our wedding but the beautiful Caribbean island. We were so happy with our pictures and will be forever thankful.

We love Jamie May Photography! She did both our engagement and wedding photos, and we were so pleased. Her and her assistant captured our special moments with our family and friends, and we enjoy having them to remember our special day. Some of our favorite photos are the candid ones of us and our guests on the dance floor, as the night truly flies by and these fun photos are a joy to look back on. I recommend Jamie May Photography without a doubt!

We were fortunate to have Jamie May Photography photograph our engagement and wedding. We are so happy with the photos!

I can’t say enough about Jamie May Photography. She worked with me to plan my out my day. Even though I was living in a completely different state. Jamie and Marie did an amazing job with our photos, getting everyone organized and I got my pictures so quickly. She is my recommendation to anyone who asks for a wedding photographer.

Jamie has the skill to capture the best moments on your wedding day! She’s also professional, kind, fun and assertive, which guarantees you get the pictures you want, while also creating a lot of fun for your wedding party! Everything about Jamie May and her team sets her beyond any other wedding photographer!!

Jamie May is incredibly talented! We were so happy with how our wedding pictures turned out. We absolutely love them! I highly recommend Jamie May Photgraphy for your wedding day. She is punctual, thorough, and takes amazing photos!

Jamie May Photography took our engagement and wedding photos and they're wonderful! I'm so happy that we were able to have Jamie for both events for us. She is professional yet fun and bubbly. The pictures are amazing and something we will be able to cherish forever <3

Four years ago, Jamie took my senior pictures. They were so wonderful and I had such a good experience that I had to have her there to take my wedding photos as well. Throughout the whole process of planning the photography timeline, she was there. Then on the wedding day, it rained. Jamie was ready for that and we adapted quickly. We were still able to get outside shots! We were provided with such a variety of photos from every part of our day and they all turned out beautifully. We are so happy with her work!

Absolutely amazing pictures! Jamie and Marie were so fun to work with. They did a great job organizing the wedding pictures and making sure we got every shot we wanted. They both have a great eye and captured our wedding perfectly!

Jamie did a fantastic job on our wedding pictures! It's so hard to choose from them! Jamie and Marie were so fun and easy to work with the day of the wedding. They were very accommodating with the locations we wanted around Grand Rapids. Since I wasn't from around the area, I trusted their judgment and they did not disappoint! They made sure to capture all the pictures we had on our checklist, plus a ton more. We received our pictures only a couple weeks after our wedding, which was very impressive! I would highly recommend Jamie for your wedding!

Jamie has an amazing eye for photography! All of our pictures from start to finish are incredible! To hard to pick which 1's we like...which is a good problem to have. Jamie is just a bubbly friendly person so she makes you feel so comfortable and natural through out all of the pictures being taken. I will recommend her to everyone!

Jamie May has been such an amazing photographer from engagement pictures through the wedding day! We searched for so long to find the perfect photographer for us! After the wedding day I feel like friends with Jamie and Marie! They were amazing making sure we got every shot I really wanted! All of our guests and bridal party kept saying how awesome they were. We met Jamie for our engagement pictures and I had given her little to work with other than we had a puppy for photos and I wanted a Willow Tree picture. Jamie found the perfect spot for our pictures and made us feel comfortable despite the puppy barking!! The wedding day Jamie and Marie covered all the small details and were sure to keep busy shooting even when our decoration set up took longer than anticipated. We could not be happier with the few sneak peaks we have seen so far and can't wait to get all of the photos back. Jamie and Marie really went above and beyond saying later into the night than we had even anticipated, we really love you both!! - Linsey and Travis Childress

Jamie took our engagement and wedding photos and all of them turned out so beautiful. The pictures really captured our personalities and our day. The pictures are beyond amazing and are even better than we could have hoped. Jamie was wonderful to work with and she is so talented, I would highly recommend her services!!

Jamie is extremely talented and has a great sense of the people she works with. We wanted a photographer who could give us a mix of photojournalistic, modern, and classic, and Jamie May Photography delivered ten fold! Jamie has a lot of fresh and fun ideas and is not afraid to try new things with her photography, but she doesn't skimp on the traditional shots. She's also a great listener and will take your suggestions and run with them to create a highly unique product. Jamie is a lot of fun to work with and is always smiling, but she is also highly professional and blends into the background when necessary; for the more candid shots at the ceremony and reception, she was like a chameleon! I hardly noticed that there were photographers around, and yet I ended up with over 1000 outstanding proofs! The bottom line: the photos from our engagement session and our wedding day were phenomenal, and Jamie was an absolute joy to work with. She captured our most special day in a way that was both classic and contemporary, so that our photos will easily stand the test of time. I highly recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a fantastic (and, I must say, affordable!) wedding photographer. Also, if you're interested in seeing some of Jamie's work, her website is a good place to see some of her older photos, but Jamie May Photography also has a facebook page and blog that is updated regularly with her more recent work.
