Here's what wedding couples are saying about highly recommended,
top rated, ranked best Michigan wedding photographer and wedding
photojournalist Marci Curtis on Michigan wedding review sites and thank you notes ...

"We couldn't be happier with our good luck in hiring Marci to photograph our wedding. She's a terrific photographer, first of all, who knows how to capture spontaneous candid photos of guests having fun as well as the more formal posed photographs and the ceremony itself. She's got a great eye for a memorable pic and is willing to do whatever it takes to capture her shot, even if it means getting herself a little dirty. But you can probably see her skill for yourself if you check out her portfolio.
What you won't be able to see is how great Marci is to work with in every other way. She's thoroughly professional, punctual, and quick to respond to any questions you might have in the weeks leading up to your event. She's also so knowledgeable about weddings that she can act in some ways as an unofficial wedding planner, reminding you (or informing you for the first time) of a dozen things you can do to make your event go more smoothly so that you're more free to enjoy yourself on the day.
She had terrific advice for us, ranging from how to wrangle relatives for photos to how to choose the kind of makeup that looks best under the lights. And to top all of this off, she's delightfully friendly and easygoing. Just having Marci in your corner is going to allow you to enjoy yourself more and focus on the most important parts of the day. And at the end of it you're going to have lots of amazing pictures! We recommend her unreservedly and enthusiastically."

♥  Brad and Blake - June 2024 at the Detroit Opera House

"We hired Marci Curtis for our engagement photos in May 2023 and then our wedding on 12/16/23. I'm not even sure where to start because she was absolutely amazing to work with! She is creative and talented; we couldn't be more pleased with how both our engagement and wedding photos turned out. She uses her photos to tell a story and doesn't do the staged or fake photos that have become so popular lately. Her photos evoke genuine emotion. When we look back at our photos now, she captured an actual moment in time that we can remember instead of some silly pose we were forced to do. She is an exceptional communicator and had so much information to offer for planning a wedding that wasn't even related to photography! Marci answers emails quickly and is extremely thorough. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and actually anticipate doing so when we can come up with another occasion we need to capture! Thank you Marci!"

♥   Megan and Marc - December 2023 at the Gem Theatre

"I can't say enough good things about Marci! My husband and I also hired her for our engagement shoot to get to know her before the wedding, totally recommend other couples do the same! She was so laid back and warm, but also professional and ready to work hard. Our photos are beyond gorgeous, worth every penny!"

♥  "A" and "E" - December 2023 at Lovett Hall at the Henry Ford Museum

"Marci is just incredible! She knows so much about weddings and how to make them run smoothly. When we got off track of the timeline she found ways to get us back on track, and she was so fun too! My favorite photos were the candids she got of our friends and family. She was helpful not just the day of but in the lead up as well. And the best part is that we got our photos back in only a week and they are absolutely beautiful!"

♥  Kenzie and Greg - November 2023 at Iroquois Club in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan

"Marci was great to work with, and she provided a great level of service. From day one she was very responsive with her communications, which is greatly appreciated. Our engagement and wedding photos all turned out great!"

♥   Lindsey and Chris - October 2023 at Beacon Hill Golf Club in Commerce Township, Michigan

"Marci was absolutely amazing! I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. She was professional, on-time, relaxed, and just overall so kind! My husband and I got our photos back in record time, all 2,000 of them! A real 10/10 experience!!"

♥   Elizabeth and Joe - September, 2023 at the Bull Estate at Addison Oaks in Leonard, Michigan

"Marci, Thank you for capturing so many incredible photos from our wedding day! We have so enjoyed going through all of them and reminiscing! You are incredibly talented and I really appreciate you pushing us out of our comfort zones a bit! All the best!"

♥   Ashley and Michael - September 2023 at Strawberry Lake Lodge in Pinkney, Michigan

"Marcie and Rodney, Thank you so much for coming to our wedding and taking the most beautiful photos of our day. We will cherish these photos for the rest of our lives, and we are so grateful to have had photographers with a personal connection who clearly truly cared for us throughout the day. Thank you so much for your support."

♥   Love, Hannah and Eric - August, 2023 at a destination wedding in Burlington, Vermont

"Marci is incredible to work with and she gets incredible shots. Honestly, I couldn't imagine my wedding day without her! She's so down to earth, can put you at ease, and has a lot of creative ideas. Not to mention... she's so affordable, she delivers hundreds of pictures, and you don't have to wait months for your pictures, either. Thank you so much, Marci, I literally couldn't have gotten through that day without your presence!"

♥   Jacqueline and Brandon - April 2023 at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.

"Marci is so easy to work with. Clear communication and so affable that you can't help but love spending time with her. She can coordinate a wide array of folks and provides guidance that truly helped our picture taking process go down without an issue. Also, Marci's always snapping pictures and she captures all the candid, wonderful moments that really make a wedding magical."

♥   Leann and Bobby - April 2023 at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan.

"Before I had even booked Marci she was already worth the money that I paid. She had invaluable recommendations that transformed the wedding into something even better than I had planned before we even signed a contract. We had a winter wedding and she did such a good job capturing the aesthetic. She used so much of the background for amazing shots and made sure to let us know different times of the day/night that would make for good pictures so we could enjoy a fun variety. The amount of information she gave me before the wedding was so appreciated, it was our first time getting married and she helped us really get a feel for what to expect. Hire her, you will not be disappointed."

♥   Holly and Chase - Outdoor Wedding Jan, 2023 at the Fenton Brewery and Winery in Fenton, Michigan.

"Marci PERFECTLY captured all of the love and fun of our New Year's Eve wedding. We don't love posing for photos so we were nervous, but Marci made the process fun and easy and made us feel so at ease. She was incredibly easy to work with, and insanely fast--she sent our 1,700 photos ONE WEEK after our wedding! I initially regretted not having a videographer, but Marci's photos totally made up for that. She captured all of the special moments and her photos truly tell the story of our perfect day. We cannot be more grateful to Marci for doing such an amazing job capturing the memories of our special day!"

♥   Emily and Drew - December 2022 at Greystone Golf Club in Washington, Michigan.

"Marci was easy to work with, on-time, organized and fun. Marci helped to keep the bride and groom on schedule, while finding beautiful places in the venue to capture pictures. Having a winter wedding in the Atrium of the Southfield Westin, Marci knew the lighting would change and made great use of that in the pictures. We were especially pleased with the many candid pictures of family and friends that Marci took. Marci really was personable and truly fun. Booking Marci was simple, she gave great advice as far as timing, makeup, "first look" etc., and her services were reasonably priced. We were very happy with Marci."

♥   Shelly for Monica and Brady - December 2022 at Westin Southfield in Michigan.

"Marci Curtis is an incredibly talented photographer who captured the special moments of our Fall wedding perfectly. From the candid shots of our guests to the posed portraits of the bride and groom, every photo was stunning. Marci has an eye for detail and a knack for finding the perfect angle, which is evident in the final product. Her creativity shone through in the unique and beautiful shots she captured, which we will treasure for years to come. Marci's patience and direction made our photo sessions stress-free, allowing us to focus on enjoying our special day. We couldn't be happier with the results and highly recommend her for any photography needs. She is a joy to work with, responsive, always professional, and easy to communicate with. We highly recommend Marci Curtis for any photography needs, she truly exceeded our expectations."

♥   Suzie and Raja - November 2022 and the Siren Hotel and Laila’s restaurant in Detroit, Michigan.

"Marci took so many photos of my husband and I and my family. She was fantastic with everything! She was super flexible with rescheduling for Covid multiple time and then with the military. I am very grateful to have the memories of my grandmothers and more! "

♥   Gabby and Noah - November 2022 at Woodside Church in Troy, Michigan.

"From the first moment we met Marci, we knew we were in good hands. There was such a comfortableness felt immediately from her that makes you feel that you're in good hands. We had so much fun with our engagement photoshoot, we knew that our wedding photos would be equally amazing, and they were and then some! Thank you for sharing the moment with us and capturing everything perfectly! We really loved working together with Marci and can confidently say you won't regret hiring her for your special day as well!"

♥   Jennifer and Ryan - October 2022 at the San Marino Club in Troy, Michigan.

"If you are considering booking Marci as your wedding photographer, do it!! She is professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and brings so much more than just her photography skills to her assignments. She was prepared with last minute emergency items that helped make the day go smoothly. I had a vision of taking photos outside in the streets of downtown Detroit and she captured them beautifully! I am not always comfortable in front of a camera, but Marci really helps make the photography process relaxed and helped calm some nerves before the ceremony. Even months after my wedding, I still obsess over all my wedding photos for hours because they turned out so beautifully. I would 110% recommend Marci Curtis to anyone for any occasion!"

♥   Morgan and Cameron - October 2022 at Westin Book Cadillac in Detroit, Michigan.

"Marci captured the most magical moments from our special day, and was honestly a breath of fresh air! She was incredibly professional and flexible, and payed such close attention to the little details that can easily be missed. Through looking at her photos, we are able to go back and relive our wedding day over and over again. I honestly can't stop looking at them! She captured so much love and happiness from that day, and we are forever grateful! She is honestly the best of the best, and we can't say enough great things about her. Trust us, you will not be disappointed with her work!!"

♥   Clarke and Nathan - September 2022 at Meadowbrook Hall in Rochester, Michigan.

"Our engagement and wedding photos turned out beautiful. Marci absolutely deserves recognition as the best wedding photography. Her experience, creativity, and professional commitment all lend themselves to capturing real and meaningful expressions.
You will quickly learn, as I did, that she has a way of injecting fun into any situation using her sense of humor so that nothing feels for unnatural or forced. Her ideas for unique poses and backgrounds that make use of nature also led to some very memorable photos.
Lastly, I am a planner and love to have all the fine details mapped out well in advance. Marci always responded promptly to my emails and provided all the answers I could possibly need. Her wedding guides were also very much appreciated and helped us to get the optimum flow for our special day. Thanks to her advice we were able to greet all of our guests earlier than planned which freed us up to truly enjoy the rest of our evening. "

♥   Nathan and Maddi - August 2022 at Idyl Wyld Golf Course in Livonia, Michigan.

"Marci is the ultimate professional and wedding photographer. She did our wedding on August 13, 2022 and we've already had amazing feedback from family/friends on our photos. She's calm, creative, and the exactly the person you need on your wedding day (or any other important event where high quality, beautiful photos are needed). We received our photos within 2 weeks of our special day, which was awesome. Everything ran smoothly and we really appreciated Marci's fun, calming, and professional approach. She keeps an "emergency kit" with a crochet hook or whatever that thing is called. It literally saved the day for getting the buttons on the back of my dress looped (I had like 20 small buttons). In closing, we are forever grateful to Marci for capturing our special day so beautifully and wanted to send a heartfelt thanks publicly. Marci for the win!"

♥   Aisha and Kennon - August 2022 at the Westin Book Cadillac in Detroit, Michigan.

"Marci was the best photographer that we could have asked for! She is incredibly fun and very talented - she captured the night perfectly and beautifully. Not to mention, we had our photos back SO fast! Highly recommend Marci to anyone!"

♥   Lisa and Charlie - June 2022 at St. Johns Resort in Plymouth, Michigan.

"My daughter got married recently and Marci was the photographer for the engagement photos and the wedding pictures. I did not know a photographer could capture not only the beauty of the wedding, but the emotions and joy we all experienced. The photos are spectacular in every way. And Marci was so easy and fun to work with. I can't recommend her highly enough!!"

♥   Laurie for Ira and Gabby - June 2022 at the Detroit Opera House in Detroit, Michigan.

"Marci was the best! We received fast and easy communication over email and she was extremely helpful and flexible during the event (she figured out how my dress worked when I was at a loss). Photos arrived promptly and were gorgeous--we have sooo many to choose from for prints and the like."

♥   Taaja and Case - June 2022 at the Ypsilanti Freighthouse in Ypsilanti, Michigan.

"Marci is both incredibly talented and super fun to work with. She was always very responsive and professional, and overall was just a joy to work with. She has a true eye for her craft and that can sometimes be rare in the wedding business. Our pictures turned out AMAZING. She managed to capture US but like the very best versions of us. We also received our pictures super fast! We were still on our honeymoon when they came in. I have heard horror stories of other couples waiting months, or sometimes never getting them at all. Marci met every deadline she committed to, and we never had to pester her for anything. She also gets very big bonus points for successfully managing a group of slightly intoxicated groomsmen. 100% recommend Marci! :)"

♥   Michelle and Jon - June 2022 at the Peacock Family Farm in Laingsburgh, Michigan.

"If you are thinking of hiring Marci... do it!!! She was so much fun and got TONS of great pics. There are so many good ones we cant choose which ones to order! She also got our pictures back to us very quickly after the wedding. She goes above and beyond to get the best shot, and is a blast to be around. My whole family/wedding parties loved her- would 100% recommend!"

♥   Paige and Mark - May 2022 at Waterview Loft in Detroit, Michigan.

"Marci is SO amazing! She photographed my sister’s wedding a few years ago, and we knew we needed her at our wedding, too! She is so much fun to work with, and knows so much about weddings in general, that she is not only an amazing photographer and artist, but also a fantastic resource! She took so many pictures and had so many amazing and creative ideas on the fly, as well as just being fun! After she packed up for the night, she joined us on the dance floor for a dance which was just so fun, too! We got our pictures less than a week after the wedding, which is an amazing turnaround, and they look wonderful! We also really liked that we own the photos, and can do whatever we want with them, just need to give Marci credit, which she totally deserves! We especially loved that we didn’t just get photos of us and our party, but she got at least a couple pictures (and good ones) of every single guest. Marci is an amazing photographer and person and we are so happy to have had her there for our special day! She truly captured the spirit of the day, and we will have so many wonderful memories that we can look back on with joy for years to come because of her talent! Thanks so much for helping make our wedding memorable, Marci!"

Dear Marci,
Our wedding photos are beautiful! There are so many wonderful shots that I'm having difficulty choosing which ones to have printed. If you have any brides that would like a reference, I'd be happy to talk to them, especially those who are out-of-state, like I was. Thanks again! Take care,
Katy (Larkin) Millward 5/20/06

Dear Marci,
I truly love the pictures...in fact, I wanted to post so many of them, I had to make them into two albums. Recently, I saw a friend's wedding album from one of the "typical" wedding photographers (snore!). I love mine so much more- thank you!
Also, many family members commented on how friendly you were and "not bossy like other photographers." As for me, I liked how you "got the job done!" I am the kind of person that loves to look back at old photos often and I know I'll be enjoying the ones you took for the rest of my life. If I can ever provide a reference for you, count me in! You can tell people I said, "Book this lady...NOW!" You captured the fun of our day- we are not boring people and didn't want boring photos- YOU ROCK!
Ever grateful,
Shea Eagle

Hi Marci,
I'm not sure if you got a chance to look at our pictures before we picked them up from you, but they are awesome! We couldn't be happier! Thank you so much for documenting our day in such a natural light.
Beckie and Joe Boczar

Marci, we just finished looking through the photos last night and they are great! You really captured the spirit of the day. Thank you so much for your amazing attention to our wedding. We thought you were so great that day, and everyone else involved in the wedding mentioned how great you were! I think Alison's mom has already recommended you to someone... Once again: thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Christopher Rainone 6/4/06

Marci,
I (we) can't thank you enough for doing such an amazing job with the photos! It was such a relief, not having to worry about the photos... you were always in the background, catching all the action :) The photos are so beautiful - we will always treasure them. Thank you for everything! Love,
Sarah and Matt 5/13/06

Hi Marci,
Mike and I just wanted to say thank you for your hard work at our wedding. We got the pictures in the mail today, and they look great! You were a ton of fun to work with, we really enjoyed our time with you. We will definitely recommend you to any engaged couples we encounter in the future!
Thanks again,
Rosemarie 6/16/06

Marci,
I finally, finally have the time to email you the link with about 1/8th of your photos from our wedding. I cannot tell you enough how much I LOVE them, they are exactly what we were looking for and more. They have been praised by friends and family.
Even the place that I took them to get developed asked me to wait to talk to the manager because he thought that I was the photographer (God forbid a couple actually own their own negatives!). He said how great they were, asked about you and said that all the staff was raving about how personal the wedding was. Recently, a friend paid $10k for her wedding pictures. Nuts, right?
Even though she saw how great my pictures are she is one of those people that thinks price reflects quality. Needless to say that her pictures were VERY generic and not very good and she hates them. I tried to tell her! Anyway, Thanks again. You were wonderful, and the pictures will be treasured forever!
Karen

Hi Marci,
I am speechless...the pictures are AMAZING!!!! You did a fabulous job!!! I will send you a CD with all of the pictures. There are too many awesome pictures...I can't decide which ones to send you! I am still on cloud nine...all of your pictures make me giggle and smile!! All I can say is WOW!!! Please let me know if you ever need me to be a reference! Thanks for capturing our special day!!
Jordan 8/5/05

Marci,
All we can say is - THANK YOU!! We love each and every one of the images you gave us!! You captured our day perfectly and we are so very grateful. Thank you for being such a key part of our wedding day! Thank you!! Many thanks. Much luck. Hope to work with you again.
Scott and Michelle Schommer 4/22/05

Marci -
Thank you, thank you, thank you! We couldn't be happier with our pictures... they're gorgeous! As you probably already know, I've already had two girls at work beg for your number so they can call you about their weddings! You're a wonderful person to work with... we're happy to recommend you to anyone!
Take care - Jill and Dave
