ve found her!

of your day. She is insightful, knowledgeable, and always willing to go above and beyond. We also appreciate how kind and warm Monika is behind the camera, as it helped us relax and feel comfortable as we went through portrait sessions. She takes the time to get to know her couples and it shows. We are so happy with our photos and our experience. 

we made after saying "yes" to each other. From the moment we met for our pre-wedding consultation, we knew she was the perfect fit for us. She took the time to get to know us, making us feel comfortable and confident that our big day was in good hands. On the wedding day itself, Monika was punctual, organized, and incredibly helpful. She kept us on track amidst the whirlwind of events, ensuring everything ran smoothly despite the tight schedule. Her ability to manage time without sacrificing the quality of her work was truly impressive. Monika's passion for photography is evident in everything she does. Her energy and enthusiasm are contagious, and she even managed to get the little ones at the wedding to smile and pose perfectly for the photos—no small feat! The final collection of photos exceeded all our expectations. The quality of her work is outstanding, and the number of beautifully edited images we received was beyond generous. If you're in Michigan and searching for a photographer who will not only capture your special moments with impeccable skill but also ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience, look no further. Monika is the perfect match for couples who want to relax, enjoy their day, and have stunning photos to remember it by. We wholeheartedly recommend Monika for your wedding photography—she’s truly one of the best in the business!

day beautifully. She knew how to frame the photos to enhance the gorgeous scenery. She made everyone comfortable and relaxed and looking their best. She took so many photos and all so spectacular it was difficult to choose which ones to display! I would definitely recommend her for your special event!

horough, and she made us feel so comfortable during both our engagement and wedding photos. My wife and I are both awkward when it comes to taking photos, but Monika made us feel totally natural! We had so much fun with Monika during our engagement photos session! I didn’t think it could get any better, but I found myself corrected when she shared our wedding gallery with us. I was absolutely blown away by how she was able to perfectly capture everything we asked for on our day. Your wedding day goes so fast, and so being able to look back on it through photographs is priceless. Monika captured every special moment and it felt like experiencing the day all over again! I can’t recommend Monika enough. Hiring her for our wedding photos was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and I am forever grateful to her for her beautiful work.

planning process. She also goes with the flow and brought out great laughs and poses for my entire wedding party. I could not think of a greater photographer. I am obsessed with the MANY photographs that were provided to me. I was nervous about my face and other features prior to the wedding - but Monika and her team gave everyone posing suggestions and did wonderful editing. Nothing but great things! I’ll be calling Monika again for my other photographer needs

excited about the wedding as we were! She was so personable and great at communicating. I cannot recommend her enough!

ts! She is great with communication and was always there if I had any questions. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer that takes charge and gets the job done! She is also very accommodating to any schedule you have and keeps everyone on track so the process is seamless.

hroughout the day, especially with our formal portraits. Even though she hadn't shot a wedding at our venue, she was able to find great locations for photos and made the most of the scenery. Monika is definitely a professional and is wonderful to work with. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again!

al and makes the experience so fun. Her pictures are very colorful, great quality, and print really nicely. We are so happy with all of the photos she has taken, and can't wait to work with her again in the future. Thank you so much Monika, you've truly done an incredible job capturing some of the most precious moments in our lives!

i've ever gotten the privilege to work with. Super professional! Insanely talented. And an UNBELIEVABLY nice person :-) As a wedding DJ, I highly recommend her!

attention and her detail is priceless. Her creative aesthetic is like fairytale magic for your wedding day! I will always recommend her for your special day!

eat to see that!! Having a photographer that can get your 'true self' on wedding day is so important!

and is fun to work with! Thank you Monika for capturing my daughter and son-in-law's special day!

ul banter with the wedding party and the obvious enjoyment she exudes at what she does! PS the photos turned out even more beautiful once she posted them. My initial review was just after the wedding and having interacted with her and how great it was, but the photos she produced were wonderful! Thank you, Monika!

nment light and joyful. She is a pleasure to work with and an expert at her craft.

y may like her work a little more than our actual big day. Her personality is so warm and inviting. Add that to her eye for lighting, and we had an album of beautiful pictures where we felt comfortable and so incredibly special. Her formal portraits were excellent and my husband loved the candid shots she took. She did a wonderful job capturing us along with our loved ones on our day. She took special care to ask us what kind of pictures we wanted and did a great job capturing them. We can't recommend her enough! Thank you again, Monika!

as well.

ept the energy up for the individual portraits and took care of all the things my husband and I had no clue about. Our engagement session was also a ton of fun and memorable. Definitely recommend for great quality photos and professionalism. Monika definitely cares about what she does!

ot stung by a bee and STILL she pushed through and delivered stunning photos. She has been very personable, friendly, encouraging and always there when we had questions. We cant say enough great things about her!

ything and everything. She really makes you beautiful on your big day and make sure nothing but positivity is around you when Monika was with me there wasn’t a stress in the world. And now onto the photos they are absolutely BREATHTAKING!!! Every single photo is absolutely gorgeous photos that I didn’t think would turn out to be the best are probably some of my favorites! Monika work is like magic. Going through the photos you can actually FEEL what everyone was feeling in the photos that Monika took. She’s definitely a professional and definitely know what she is doing. Without Monika my wedding day wouldn’t have been as amazing as it was. Thank you for everything Monika I can’t say it enough. BEST. PHOTOGRAPHER. EVER.

captured throughout the entire day. She is the BEST!

as organized, kind, helpful, and answered all of our questions through the whole process. We absolutely how our photos turned out. She was able to capture both of our personalities and all of our special moments. We highly recommend! Thank you Monika!

eciated all of the time, effort, and care that she put into photographing our special day. We had so many beautiful pictures to choose from it was hard to pick which ones to print! The pictures also printed very well. The nighttime photos are especially unique. We are very happy with our wedding photos!

eat job keeping our spirits up even though neither of us are super comfortable in front of the camera, and our photos turned out beautifully! She was so helpful with planning our shot list and timeline for the day, offering suggestions on timing to make the day run smoother. Her attention to detail was so appreciated, and both Monika and her second photographer Ryan were great at putting both us and our wedding party at ease for portraits and group shots! We had sneak peak wedding pictures the next night, and can’t wait to see the rest! We’re a couple hours drive from her, but will absolutely be using Monika for any future photo sessions!

tured every important moment to me and my husband. Would recommend!!

future photos!

the biggest most natural smiles out of even the toughest to photograph. She has an eye for amazing photos. My daughter wanted some photos in a flower field. We were in the city with no fields in sight but Monika spotted a flower bed. She laid on the ground and took the photos from an angle that made it look like we were in the most beautiful flower field in the middle of the city. The photos turned out STUNNING!!! I highly recommend Monika to all of my friends and will most certainly be calling her for all of our families needs.

g to push our date back a year and she was so easy to work with helping us navigate such an unexpected experience for everyone! The day of the wedding, she and her second shooter were both extremely professional. She gives wonderful direction and is very good with big group shots! I loved the timeline she helped me create and even with the timeline being completely off the day of - she rolled with it and got all the important pictures. She provided us with SO many pictures!!! I love them all, I have no idea how I'm going to be able to choose which ones to print out! Also - if you have a funny mishap (like my husband doing a dance to start the reception and completely splitting his pants - she will most likely capture it! It is one of my favorite pictures, ha!) Just goes to show how attentive she is. I will definitely be using her in the future for any family photos, etc. If you're looking for a competent, kind, funny, professional, outgoing photographer - Monika is your girl!

nika really works to understand what you are looking for in your photos. She has a true understanding of time frames, and helps to keep you on schedule. Our photos are beautiful, and numerous!

e with, and we highly recommend her for all of your photography needs!

’ or ‘light, airy’ I am NOT your girl.” I can’t stress how important it is to look at a photographer’s work and make sure it aligns with what you love. Her use of vibrant color and lighting techniques absolutely made our photos stand out. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, and was flexible after our original venue cancelled. Her connections in the wedding industry are amazing and she helped us with an officiant, flowers, and hair and makeup. But what really sets Monika a part is her personality. She had us laughing throughout our engagement and wedding pictures. I remember during our engagement shoot looking back at her as she was laying in a bush to get the perfect shot. Not only is she a hard worker, but she will make you laugh in the process! The day of the wedding, she kept me calm even with torrential downpours. You wouldn’t even know it rained that day when looking at the pictures. Choosing Monika was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. We had so much fun working with her, and have her beautiful work to remember our special day!

ing about the entire situation. Not to mention how amazing she was the day of our event. My bridal party was very difficult to work with but Monika did an amazing job reigning them in and keeping them focused. And when they were too focused on the bar to take photos, she was incredibly patient and resourceful. I cannot recommend her enough. She hasn’t finished editing all of our photos yet - but I can tell you by the sneak peaks I’ve seen, they’re going to look amazing! I’m so happy I found her and I recommend her 1000%.
