Ciera and her team are absolutely amazing! I can’t thank them enough for capturing our special day. I would recommend Ciera and her team any day!
Ciera and her team are the absolute best! I was so happy to have them capture our special day. Ciera & Katie make sure they get all of the special moments on camera. It’s so nice to be able to go back and look at them all and relive your wedding day through pictures. From snapping pictures of the small details like accessories & decorations, to capturing special moments like the first kiss, having the help of your mom button up your dress, first dances, and everything in between, they don’t miss a thing! Vicki is always around with a helping hand. From fixing your dress, coming in clutch with boutonniere pins, last minute touch ups for hair, you know you’ll be in good hands. This team is so professional and on top of their game, I couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing our wedding day!
Ciera and her team were the photographers for my son and daughter-in-law's wedding. They go above and beyond what is expected. They do everything possible to make sure that it is the perfect day. Ciera, Vicki and Katie are very professional, caring, and talented. We will forever cherish the photos that were captured during this special day.
I can't even begin to tell you how amazing Ciera and her team are!! They are more than just photographers for us. I was a covid bride and Photos by Ciera came into our lives when we needed them the most. As my husband and I made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding we felt that July 25th, 2020 was going to be a bitter day for us. That was until Ciera reached out and mentioned a photoshoot to celebrate our original date. We laughed, danced to our first song, enjoyed a sunset over the lake, and now have beautiful photos and memories to remember our "first" wedding date. They truly turned a dark time into one of my favorite memories! When the time came for our wedding, they were a blessing as well. Vicki was there for anything and everything as she helped with her emergency kit, fixing our hair, and making sure everything was perfect. Katie was an amazing photographer that helped to bring the whole day together and she was so fun to be around with her cheery personality. Ciera was just amazing. Leading up to our wedding she was extremely organized, so reliable, and a vendor/friend that I could lean on and really trust. She orchestrated the day of so well, and I am not sure it would have gone so smoothly without her!! On the day of our wedding, our photos were a breeze and they made it a fun experience. Their team truly made us excited for our own wedding and you can see their passion is 110%. We would hire them again in a heartbeat and we are forever grateful for Photos by Ciera!!
If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! Ciera and her team stuck with us when we had to postpone due to covid. They had no problem accommodating for us and any last minute changes we may needed. Ciera, Betsy, Katie and Vicki were a blast to work with! They had great energy, made everything very easy/comfortable and they were very organized! They kept the pictures on schedule and I have a big Italian family so trying to keep people are in line is a big job in itself but they had no problem!! The day of the wedding these women came prepared! Whatever we needed they seemed to have it! For instance, I wasn’t feeling well and all of a sudden I had an electrolyte gummy and a liquid IV packet handed to me. It was exactly what I needed! Our photos turned out beautiful and we can’t thank Photos by Ciera enough and they will always be my recommendation!!
I cannot say enough amazing things about Ciera and her partner/sister-in-law Betsy! It leaves me speechless every time I see our photos! These two plus their mother Vicki are the most amazing group ever. They’re so outgoing and fun and making you feel extremelyyyy comfortable. They’re always so happy and have so much energy! Not only do they capture your perfect day, they also come prepared with anything you may need! I don’t know how many times I asked Mama Vicki for something and she had it available! She’s the bobby hair Queen!
Ciera has amazinggg talent. The photos she captures are breathtaking! I had a cathedral vail and the way she captured it and had it blowing in the wind was amazing. I also lost my mom two years before my wedding. I had given a picture of my mom to Ciera and she was able to add my mom to photos and it was absolutely perfect!
I’m so glad I had her capture our big day. Ciera, Betsy and Vicki are now our friends and part of our family! I can’t wait for them to continue capturing our life events! I will ALWAYS choose Photos by Ciera! (And Betsy!)
This review is way overdue, as our wedding was over a year ago now. We had a wonderful experience with Photos By Ciera! What a great family team they make for a photography business. 2 photographers is a must for a wedding and a third person to help with the fine details was a bonus. We actually changed the date of our wedding so Photos by Ciera could be our photographer.
The engagement session several months before the wedding was a great way to get get to know the crew and their style of photography. It was a perfect way to get comfortable with each other. Ciera was great about staying in touch all the way up until the day of the wedding and seemed well organized throughout the process. This is comforting in the midst of all of the stress of planning a wedding.
On the day of the wedding, they were on time (actually a little early i'm pretty sure). They were very professional throughout the day and you could tell that they worked hard for every picture all day long. Ciera did a great job of taking the reins and getting everyone rounded up for the pictures. She did this very tastefully and had fun with the bridal party while doing it. Betsy was so sweet to everyone and she was always there getting pictures from other angles. Vicki was there to take care of all of the fine details, such as straightening out suits or dresses, fixing a piece of hair that was out of place, holding flowers, etc. She was a life saver at the reception. My sweet husband, bless his heart, accidentally spilled dark red wine all over the sleeve of my wedding dress. Vicki swooped in with some magical wipe that she had in her bag and i'm not kidding you, the wine effortlessly and completely came out of the dress! I still want to know what that magic wipe was!
The pictures were ready in a timely manner and we couldn't be happier with how they turned out! Excellent quality of photos and many to choose from. You can tell that the cameras are high quality. Ciera also added other special touches after the wedding such as a complimentary prints, a hand written heart felt thank you note and other gifts (I won't spoil the surprise for future couples).
Overall, we were very happy that we chose Photos By Ciera as our wedding photographer. All around great experience! She is talented, professional, fun and we couldn't be happier with our photos from our special day. Thank you Ciera, Betsy and Vicki!
Before I even got engaged, I knew Ciera and her team would photograph our day. I booked my wedding two years ahead of time and switched the date to have Ciera capture our wedding. Starting with our engagement session, which is included with the wedding package, everything was a dream. Ciera was so easy, professional, and flexible to work with. She took her time to know both my fiance and I and made every aspect of the day special. She meets with you beforehand to understand what and who are important to you. Getting the sneak peaks just a day after is incredible. I sat looking through the pictures all day, and now that I have all of them, I cannot take my eyes off. They are absolutely breath taking. Having Ciera photograph our wedding pictures was the best decision we made. We will cherish these pictures forever and anyone would be lucky to have her helping capture their day! All I can say is THANK YOU!!
Ciera and her amazing team did such a wonderful job capturing the beauty of a perfect day. They take the most genuinely beautiful pictures and are some of the kindest people you will ever meet. It is their mission to make your day special and to capture all of the little moments and their passion shines through in the work that they do.
Ciera’s pictures turned out beautiful! The colors popped in every picture. Ciera and her team were so efficient and such a friendly group to work with
Aside from her obviously great photography skills, Ciera also has amazing leadership qualities! We had a very large wedding party and Ciera did an amazing job keeping everyone on track (even our rowdy groomsmen!) and staying on schedule - and she also managed to keep it FUN!
Ciera and her team where amazing!!!! From the minute we signed with her she helped us with every last detail of our daughters special day!!! As the Mother of the Bride Ciera was a God sent!! Her expertise and talent showed in every photo. She made our special day The Best Day Ever!!!! Truly amazing, MOB
Where do I even begin?! Ciera and her team were amazing from start to finish. From the day we hired them, they were truly invested in our special day and all of the planning that led up to it. Our engagement session was so much fun, they even brought a beautiful dress for me to do a quick outfit change! I was really nervous the month leading up to the wedding, but Ciera was flexible, supportive, and so helpful in creating a detailed itinerary for me so that all my vendors were on the same page! Betsy and Ciera captured every single important detail and the pictures were absolutely stunning. Vicki was like my fairy god mother making sure my hair, veil and makeup were perfect. I truly felt like a princess and highly recommend these girls to make your wedding day as special as mine :)
We are beyond grateful and are so thankful for the Photos by Ciera team. I cannot stop looking at our wedding photos; Photos by Ciera captured our wedding day perfectly. Ciera, Betsy & Vicki are the perfect people to work with. If you are considering them for your wedding photos or any photos in general, look no further. They are the absolute best and book up quickly! They take the time to capture every little detail of the wedding. They were extremely prepared; they had toys to make sure the ring bearer and flower girls were looking during photos, hairspray, bobby pins & lipgloss for any touch ups that were needed. Meeting with Ciera prior to the wedding to go over photos that we wanted captured and the timeline of the day made us so comfortable that everything was going to go perfectly. They go above and beyond to make sure your day is captured exactly how you want it; not to mention that they are so fun and energetic! Even Tony & the groomsmen stayed engaged during their portraits, in fact it looks like they had so much fun with it. We have the most beautiful photos, I cannot even choose which one I like the best. Tony & I are so thankful these ladies captured our special day. Thank you ladies! You are the best!!
Photos by Ciera is the best photographer. Ciera, Betsy and Vicki are a very talented team. All three worked their magic from fixing hair, to wiping tears to making the wedding party feel at ease, and they did it all with smiles while having fun themselves. Highly professional. They captured memories that will be cherished forever. Simply the best...♥️
I have attended and been a part of many weddings in my life and these ladies would have to be rated at the top of all of the photographers that I have worked with. They were very personable and fun to work with. The results in both candid and staged shots were incredible. Thanks for documenting such a great day in a great way!
The photographs from Garret and Tia's wedding were just beautiful. Personal moments were captured to be remembered forever. There were a lot of new ideas for pictures that I haven't seen before. Very nice and fun ladies to share this special day with.
Very impressed with her! I’m not the type of person who likes to get pictures taken but she made it very easy and fun. All of us guys were told what we needed to do and where to be, which let’s be honest as guys this was great. The pictures turned out great and had a blast. Won’t find another photographer with the energy and enthusiasm she has. Highly recommended!
Ciera, Betsy & Vicki are top notch! I couldn't have asked for a better group of ladies to photograph my wedding day. Ciera and Betsy are so talented, they take breathtaking photos. Vicki helped so much with re-pinning hair, make up touch ups and making sure I was not stressed. They are so energetic and make the whole experience fun. They are so organized and took care of a few bumps in the road, making our wedding day go by smoothly. I would 100% recommend Ciera to anyone that has a special event happening in their life. I want to thank each of the ladies that helped make my wedding day the best ever.
Ciera, you captured mine and Garrett's love for each so so beautifully, and you provided us, as well as our families with outstanding pictures and memories that we will forever cherish. I can't stop looking through my wedding album!
Thank you for everything! <3
Ciera and Betsy are not only amazing photographers but also phenomenal people. They are so easy to work with, kind, and accommodating. We made several changes on the day of our wedding and Ciera and Betsy just rolled with it! Our pictures turned out great and I couldn’t be happier with our decision to choose Photos by Ciera to capture our engagement and wedding photos. The value for the price is unmatched.
When you think about your wedding day, you imagine it to be the most beautiful day of your life. Photos by Ciera, including the wonderful team of Ciera, Betsy, and Vicki allowed it to be exactly, that. I cannot thank them enough for their enthusiasm, flexibility, and genuine care for the bride and their wedding. It all began with the engagement pictures being an included portion of the wedding package and their ability to accommodate us, when I last minute asked, "If we could take pictures on a freezing cold day in December with the fresh snowfall". It did not stop Ciera and Vicki from making this happen.
I think having a "sneak peak" is the best part of the wedding pictures, I think I stared at them for the entire next week. I cannot thank Ciera, Betsy, and Vicki for their willingness to capture "The Perfect Day", by sneak-viewing the rehearsal on Friday night to arriving early Saturday to get the day rolling. They not only take amazing photos, but get to know you on a personal level and make it their top priority to capture you at every angle of the day and moment. I thank Vicki for always fixing our hair, pinning the boutonniere on my husband, and making sure the lighting is perfect. I thank Betsy for capturing "another view" of the whole day and being so sweet, smiling, and bubbly. It is not very often that you are blessed with "2 amazing photographers". and lastly, I thank Ciera, for being the big part of our big day. You are accommodating, professional, and prompt. If I had a question, you always answered it within moments. You truly made our wedding day unforgettable with you upmost professionalism, creativity, sense of humor, and continued enthusiasm. To top it off, you provided Marcus and I, & our families with the most beautiful portraits and memories from the most special day in our lives. I continuously scroll through my photos and smile at every amazing angle of the day that you captured. I above and beyond recommend Photos by Ciera to capture your very perfect day. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
I could not have been more amazed by how our photos turned out and the way that the Photos by Ciera team worked with us blew me away! They were so much fun to be around and really know what they’re doing and they have a great time doing it! I would recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a photographer for any occasion at all!
Photos by Ciera, along with her assistant Betsy, is definitely hands down the best photographer in the Upper Peninsula and Northern Wisconsin. My wedding photos turned out absolutely perfect. It's been almost a year since I walked down the isle and I still look at my photos. Ciera is hard working, professional, energetic, and most importantly I think, organized. She really kept my wedding party together and kept things going. The quality of her photos are phenomenal. Anyone who looks at her pictures on her website agrees, very clear and crisp, and unique poses and props (I love the confetti)! I would highly recommend Photos by Ciera and she will be capturing my future milestones, including my new born pictures! Ciera, thank you for providing such top notch quality pictures to our community.
Ciera was absolutely WONDERFUL in capturing our photos! She and her team take the time to know her clients, which helped portray our personalities perfectly in our photos. From our first photos as a couple, to now our family photos, Ciera has made our sessions stress free, fun, and the finished products will be treasured for a lifetime!
Ciera and Betsy did such an incredible job on our wedding photos! They captured every moment. Our wedding photographer was one thing we wanted to be absolutely perfect, and they went above and beyond!! We are so happy with our photos, and will treasure them for the rest of our lives. They both made the photos fun for everyone, and they were able to get all the specific photos that we requested throughout the day. They were well organized and great to work with! Highly recommended:)
Ciera and team are absolutely outstanding! Not to mention the nicest people you’ll ever meet! Ciera, Betsy, and Vicki have a true love for their clients, and made us feel beyond comfortable. They truly went above and beyond making our wedding day flawless! Every moment was captured perfectly, from engagement to the “big day!" I honestly have a hard time choosing which photos to print because I love them all so much!! Without a doubt I will have Photos by Ciera capture future life milestones!
Words simply cannot describe how AMAZING Ciera and Betsy are! 5 stars doesn’t seem high enough ! These girls deserve a million! From the moment we hired them and throughout the entire proces these girls were phenomenal. Our photos turned out beyond any expectations we could have had for our wedding photos- they are truly amazing and we cannot thank Ciera, Betsy and their amazing assistant Vicki enough for going above and beyond on our special day. ❤️❤️❤️
Absolutely stunning and amazing are an understatement when it comes to Ciera and her team. If I could give her 100 stars, I would. From the moment you book her as your photography, she is totally devoted to you and your day. No little detail is ever forgotten from your engagement photos, to the ceremony, and all the little moments in between that you, yourself would never think needed to be captured. But let me tell you , those little moments are some of my favorite pictures! Not only is every moment captured, the pictures themselves are absolutely stunning! In my photo album, there is isn't one bad picture in the bunch. She truly has a gift for photography and I will be using her for every event that I would like photographed!
My daughter and future son-in-law had their engagement pictures done by Photos by Ciera and I was astonished by the professionalism and detail to each picture she had taken! She definitely has an eye behind the camera and captured the perfect snapshots that were both unique and timeless. It was also very sweet of Ciera to capture their pictures on such short notice when the two were home visiting. Although my daughter and future son-in-law will be holding a destination wedding, I would give anything to have Ciera take their wedding pictures.
You cannot go wrong with choosing Photos by Ciera for all of your engagement and wedding photos. She is a very talented young individual and is truly passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend her to any family or friend!
Photo's by Ciera went above and beyond for capturing our engagement pictures. Our wedding is going to be in South Carolina, but I had envisioned having a little part of home for our wedding and she did a fabulous job of making that vision come true. She made us laugh uncontrollably, feel comfortable, and captured our love perfectly. She is definitely one of the best photographers to come out of this small town, and we were so lucky she was available! I highly recommend anyone in the Iron Mountain/Kingsford/Green Bay area to hire Photo's by Ciera for any professional photos you may want - you will not be disappointed!

Ciera is one of the nicest people out there! She was the sweetest to work with! She gave directions, had ideas, made us look fabulous in our photos and even had the back up lip gloss, hair pins and safety pins the day of our wedding. We are very thankful for her talent and everything she did for us!
Not to mention the quality of the photo lab she uses for the prints. They are amazing prints! We have a few 16x20 photos and they are flawless, we have had everyone compliment our photos when they walk into our home.

Everyone always said that the “big day” would go by in a flash and all you have is your memory and your photographs to remind you of the best day ever. Ciera and Betsy did an astonishing job taking our photographs on our big day. The hardest part is choosing which pictures are our favorites because they all are amazing! From pre ceremony to the reception Ciera was phenomenal making us feel comfortable while capturing our special moments. Ciera also took our engagement photos last fall and they made my heart skip a beat. She has a true talent for capturing precious moments between couples and families. Without a doubt Photos by Ciera is the way to go for your big day-trust me, you won’t regret it!!
Photos by Ciera did an amazing job with both the engagement and wedding pictures for my son and daughter-in-law! The engagement pictures are gorgeous and Ciera made them feel comfortable and they had so much fun. Ciera went above and beyond on the wedding day. Her organization and personality are top notch. It was a large wedding party and we also wanted many family photos and all expectations were met. Every moment was captured, from the pre-wedding preparations, the ceremony, portraits in the church, the party bus, cocktail hour, the dinner, and even part of the dance. The amount of photos we received is amazing. This special day has been captured from beginning to end and we will forever cherish these photographs. We could not have had a better experience and we greatly appreciate all Ciera did to help make the day perfect! I highly recommend Photos by Ciera and look forward to working with her for future events.
Photo’s by Ciera absolutely exceeded every expectation in every way. We were so pleased with the professionalism, organization, and care that Ciera put into our special day. Ciera and Betsey made an effort to get to know everyone in the bridal party. They truly care about their clients and want the best for them. From bringing along Ciera’s mom to help with every little detail, to fixing hair and makeup, to helping me get into my dress, they went above and beyond so that everything went smoothly. You won’t regret having Ciera capture your big day. The photos come out absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! So much talent and care; you captured every moment perfectly. Thank you so much for making it fun... thank you for a lifetime of memories that we will look back on through your beautiful photos. We are so thankful!
