“Lola was highly professional and organized from the moment I reached out to her to inquire about availability for our wedding date, throughout the planning process, during the wedding, and in communicating and delivering the photos after. While she is able to effectively manage the chaos of shooting a wedding, she is also able to produce excellent photography. I would absolutely recommend Lola to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.”

“Where do we begin!? We cannot thank Lola enough for capturing our wedding day from start to finish. Lola’s engagement photo shoot with us was just magical in downtown Detroit. We had so much fun and the pictures turned out incredible. She even let us bring our dog along!! The wedding pictures were on a whole other level. We are still in awe! Our wedding was over the 2023 Christmas holiday, yet Lola delivered our photos in less than 30 days after our wedding. We were blown away by Lola’s attention to detail, capturing the day in every way we envisioned it. We couldn’t wait for our wedding day knowing we had this wonderful team alongside us. We had a huge group too, it’s not an easy feat getting people together and they did it like pros. We highly suggest Lola for your wedding day or special event! Thank you will never be enough! - The Horne’s”
