Capturing Moments Since 2020
Upper peninsula of michigan weddings never looked so good
Its surreal to think that we are already looking ahead to the 2026 wedding season and I am here for it! One of the most important aspects of your wedding day is booking your photographer and I am here for every step of the planning process.
For 2026 my package offerings and packages are changing slightly. I am moving to a more full-day aspect as it captures the heart of your day from start to finish and the up to 8 hour timelines allow for my couples to slow down and take in each moment without feeling rushed. You won't get this day back-so relax, enjoy family and friends and each other and dance the evening away while I capture each precious moment as it unfolds.
If you are planning an elopement or micro wedding in the western Upper Peninsula area-keep reading, I have an option available for you! (Keep scrolling down!)
"I had the best experience working with Hannah and Scott! They were professional, great communicators, and the wedding day went flawlessly with their help. It is clear they know what they are doing and I am SO happy with how my photos turned out. And Hannah got the gallery back to me less than a week after my wedding! I would highly recommend Otter River Images to anyone getting married!"
Hailey, 2025 bride
"Otter River Images photographed our wedding and they did not disappoint! We went for a non-traditional wedding and they did not blink an eye at our weird schedule and flexibility. In fact, they seemed to fit right in with our vibe and captured some amazing moments. They were both so personable and friendly, it helped to make my (now) husband and I comfortable and natural during photos and did a great job incorporating our canines into the photos as well. Hannah had our photos ready within only a week after our date, it was incredible and the photos are something we will cherish forever. I highly recommend Otter River Images to anyone in the UP or surrounding areas!!"

Northern Lights package
With up to 12 hours of continuous coverage, this package takes you on a full-day wedding journey.

Tell us what we get
How many images do we get and how are they delivered?
With all of my photo packages, you get a minimum of 75 images per photographed hour. For weddings, you get a sneak peek gallery within 24-72 hours after your wedding date (don't worry, these images will be included in the final gallery). I use an amazing platform called Pixieset to delivery your gallery! For weddings, please allow 30 business days for complete gallery delivery.
How soon should I book?
At this time, bookings are coming in very fast for 2026 and I highly suggest booking your favorite vendors as soon as possible! 2026 is projected to be a big year for weddings and I would love to be able to squeeze you in on my calendar!
Do you offer a second shooter?
While I typically am the primary photographer and photograph on two camera bodies at all times so we don't miss a shot, I do bring a second shooter along to 99% of my 8, 10 and 12 hour wedding packages so we get that extensive photography coverage you will love. When I do bring a second shooter, this is at no charge to any of my clients. And the awesome news is Scott is my primary associate/second shooter and we make an incredible team!
Are there travel expenses included in your packages?
No travel fees to the upper Midwest region! For weddings outside of the Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota regions, please reach out for a custom quote for destination weddings!
