Hey there, I'm Karah

Through Life, Through Laughter, Your Story Unfolds

I’m Karah — mom, photographer, and your go-to for capturing real moments that actually feel like you. I live for the laughs that sneak in between the big smiles, the quiet glances, and all the little in-between moments that make a story feel alive. Life’s messy, beautiful, and way too short for stiff poses — and that’s exactly what I love to capture.

I didn’t get into photography because I had the fanciest camera or a big business plan.

I started because I loved capturing little moments. At first it was just for Instagram, but it quickly became the way I felt most creative and alive.

authentic storytelling with Karah

WHEN EVERYTHING FADES, THERE’S ONE THING THAT LASTS.

It’s not about how many sessions I’ve photographed, how many photos I’ve delivered or how many kind reviews people have left me

Because none of that compares to what you actually want. You want to remember exactly what life feels like right now.

The butterflies of young love. The freedom of senior year. The way your person looks at you when you’re laughing so hard you can’t breathe.And that’s why I do what I do. If you trust me with your memories, I’ll capture them with all the care, passion, and authenticity they deserve.

family is my heart and my soul

Here’s what I’ve learned along the way:

the best photos aren’t the ones where you stand perfectly still, smiling on command.

They’re the ones where you forget the camera is even there—the ones that feel like you.

That’s why I shoot the way I do. I’m here to create a space where you can relax, laugh, maybe be a little weird, and just enjoy yourself. Because when that happens, the photos tell your story—not a staged version of it.

let’s make magic

My “why” is simple:

michigan couples and wedding photographer

I want you to be able to look back at your photos and remember what it felt like in that moment—not just what it looked like.

Real. Comfortable. Completely you.

That’s the kind of photos I care about creating
