"Phrene is such a sweet and genuine person! We both went to the same salon and the manager there connected us. I had the pleasure of meeting with her in person while we discussed our businesses. Both just starting out, we were eager to network and bounce ideas off each other. She does REALLY great work and has wonderful attention to detail in her shots. I would certainly recommend her to any of my brides. "

I would recommend Phrene in a heartbeat! She is extremely fun and easygoing, and her work is absolutely beautiful. She is also very flexible; she always has creative ideas to try but if you have your own ideas she will basically do whatever you want! Hands down the best investment I made in our wedding.

Phrene is absolutely, completely fabulous! Her photography is phenomenal, and she has a gift for capturing the perfect moments, as well as the perfect lighting and backgrounds. Her photos are artwork that I would display anywhere.

Not only is her work amazing, but she is so incredibly sweet, passionate about photography, easygoing, and so much fun! Her energy is contagious, and the way she puts you at ease makes you smile all the more and look great in your photos.

We had an engagement session with her, and we clicked right away. She put my fiance and me at complete ease, and we had so much fun just enjoying the moments and letting her snap away.

On the wedding day, she and her crew (shout-outs to Brooke and Genevieve) just blended into our crew of friends and family. They were terrific with our friends/family, and made everyone feel excited and comfortable. They caught all the right moments throughout the day. Looking at our photos takes me back through the entire day, and every moment that they caught brings back a flood of memories.

And the cherry on top - she got our photos back to us faster than we could ever imagine.

Hope I've sold you!

We were so impressed and pleased with Photography by Phrene. Both our wedding and engagement pictures were beautiful. Phrene has a way of getting the perfect and unique picture. She has a way of making having your picture taken fun and comfortable, its hard to get sick of it. We had such a fun time both at our engagement session and wedding. She is very professional, but personable, we both were comfortable with her. We loved our pics, we had such a hard time picking which ones we wanted because we loved all of them. We recommend anyone wanting quality, beautiful and unique pictures taken to have Photography by Phrene. Thank you Photography by Phrene for making the most memorable time in our life special.

Phrene was fantastic as our wedding photographer. We got engaged in October and married in December, and she was completely able to roll with us in that short of a time. Things didn't quite go as planned on the big day -- weather, scheduling/timing issues, the fact that nobody's cellphones worked where we were in Northern Michigan -- but she was totally flexible, friendly, and fun. She was actually even kind of a rock for me as things reached near-chaotic proportions around me. The pictures are absolutely beautiful, and several people have commented that they look like something they'd see in a bridal magazine. I would recommend Phrene to anyone getting married in Michigan. She captured so many special moments of our big day, and I just can't thank her enough. Yay for Phrene!

Phrene provided excellent service on the day of our wedding! She was friendly and funny and got along great with all members of the wedding party and the guests. Before the wedding she was extremely flexible with time and location for meeting to discuss wedding plans. She helped a very busy bride not have to worry about one more thing!
