Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Your wedding day is more than a grand celebration—it’s the people, moments, and memories that make it unforgettable.
It’s the cherished memories of laughter shared with dear friends, the gentle glances exchanged when everyone is celebrating, and the heartfelt embrace of family members who traveled from near and far to be with you on your special day. These profoundly significant moments are what I am dedicated to capturing for you.
As an engaged couple, you're searching for the perfect vendors to help turn your wedding day dreams into reality—rest assured, you're not in this alone. I'm Karly, a seasoned wedding photographer located near Traverse City, and I completely understand your journey.
Did you know that over 60% of couples wish they received more guidance from their photographers? This often leads to a bunch of questions, like:
How much photography coverage is necessary for our wedding?
What photo opportunities might we miss?
How can we effectively organize family photos?
How can we trust our photographer to capture our special day?
How can we reduce stress and ensure we have the support we need?
You're not alone in facing these uncertainties. I understand how daunting it can be to sift through numerous photographer profiles and worry about missing key details. That's why we offer a comprehensive wedding photography experience, specifically designed for engaged couples like you. With detailed guidance throughout the entire process, you and your fiancé can move forward with confidence, knowing you can trust us to capture every cherished moment of your unforgettable day.
You’ve been on the hunt for someone who can capture moments that feel natural and authentic to your wedding story, and you've found a perfect fit! You deserve to be completely present on your special day knowing that you can rely on your photographer to offer direction and capture every moment.
At Treehouse Studios, we blend the authenticity of candid storytelling with the timeless elegance of classic portraiture, giving you the best of both worlds.

We absolutely LOVED having Karly as our wedding photographer. My husband and I don't like getting our picture taken, but Karly made it so easy to relax. She's so fun and so sweet. We love her and are so impressed with what she did, we hired her to do our maternity photos the year after. Once again, she did an outstanding job and you won't regret hiring her!

If you’re looking for an amazing photographer, look no further! I had such an amazing experience on such a big day. She was very prompt in responses And was very detailed prior to the wedding on what my expectations were. She made sure on my big day that we captured everything Even some things I may have forgotten. I was given sneak peaks within a few days That were absolutely stunning. She was an absolute blast to work with and everyone in my wedding party had fun taking photos together. You will receive great quality photos for such a reasonable price. I truly enjoyed her company at my wedding and if you book with her, you will have the same experience.
Any questions?

Karly's work is absolutely amazing! Our photos are gorgeous. She is timely in her responses, comes with a wealth of knowledge and ready to go for any lighting. She made us feel comfortable and she caputred the best photos I have ever seen of my Fiancé. She has done our engagement photos and will be doing our wedding next October and we can't wait.

Karly has been absolutely amazing! She was so fun to work with and she is great at what she does! You can tell it's her passion! Our pictures turned out beautifully. She even edited and met our picky requests with no hesitation. 2 years later and she is STILL helping us out. You're awesome, Karly! <3

I submitted an inquiry form on Karly ‘s website at 11:49am for golden hour pregnancy announcement photos. I included my number and asked for a phone call or text as I was visiting from out of town. Karly texted me within THIRTY MINUTES of submitting the form! She then booked me for the same day! She was very thorough before hand and asked questions about what we were looking for, in order to maximize our time together. When we met up with her at point betsey, it never felt like getting to know a stranger. It always felt like catching up with a close friend. She was so sweet and made the experience so special for us. Karly even got a few sneak peaks out to us within a day so we could do our announcement the same day! She also did a great job posing us. Any bride or family would be very lucky to have Karly capturing their memories. I cannot wait to bring my baby girl here and to hire Karly to take our family photos ❤️

Absolutely loved Karly for our wedding photographer. My husband and I got married in 2022, and she did a wonderful job. We wanted more in the moment photos, and she delivered beautifully. We could not be more grateful. We absolutely love our photos! She made the whole process easy, was very professional and easy going. Thank you, Karly!

Amazing amazing amazing services and care! From the moment I hired, it felt like Treehouse Studios (THS) was fully invested in helping me flesh out every aspect of my wedding and how it was to be captured. Open line of communication from “start” to well beyond “finished”! I was so nervous for so many parts of planning my wedding but after finding THS, it was one thing I knew I didn’t need to even think twice on. Plus so much knowledge in them, I was able to get ideas for planning my wedding from THS. Genuine care and desire to help was expressed in all interactions.
