On WeddingWire since 2024

Hi! I am so thrilled to congratulate you on your engagement!

I'm Karly, and I believe in treating your wedding day as the most captivating love story ever told. Let's document your journey into forever with your best friend – a legacy I am thrilled and honored to capture for you.

We are a perfect match if you're looking for a pro who knows when to let moments unfold organically and when a little gentle guidance can work wonders.

You can expect personalized direction, candid moments, and artistic details.

What really makes Treehouse Studios really stand out though, is our commitment to providing so much more than a stunning gallery of high quality images.

My absolute favorite thing to do is create an exceptional photography experience tailored to you, from our first interaction to long after delivering your gallery. To me, this is so much more than my work, it is where passion meets my purpose.

My focus is on bringing your vision to life while also crafting a top-notch experience for you. And I do that by:

  • Getting to know you- with a fun couples questionnaire designed to be a fun date night activity.
  • Sending you an amazing planning guide with help for everything from your engagement session to the timeline
  • Taking the time to know and understand exactly what you want and what to expect ahead of time
  • Crafting a custom timeline and shotlist especially for you- no detail left behind!
  • Making you look good! Literally, with lighting posing & direction- but also by having the best attitude and being friendly
  • Caring a ton, being super helpful and communicating well with everyone
  • Sending super fast sneak peeks! Woot! Who wants to wait? Sneaks in 24-48 hours.
  • ETC. I'm your wedding day teammate, so the list really goes on and on.

Let's shed some "light" on the subject (pun intended, apologies for that – I tend to slip in puns).

Lighting plays a significant role in storytelling your day. We often use natural light to capture moments and add artificial lighting for emotion, drama, or brightening darker scenes. Our team excels in adapting to various lighting situations, using light to narrate your story and capture those breathtaking moments.

I wear my heart on my sleeve, offering genuine care to every couple I work with. Beyond being your photographer, I aim to be your wedding day ally, supporting you through each moment – from calmness during anticipation to playful portraits and energetic dance floor celebrations.

While Treehouse Studios is located near Traverse City, MI, I am excited to join you wherever your story unfolds. I look forward to celebrating both of you as we document this truly special chapter in your lives together!

A true gem!

Reflecting back to our wedding day, I can truly say one of the best decisions was hiring Karly with Treehouse Studios. Not only is she warm and welcoming, but very attentive to any questions or concerns you may have. She got praise from our wedding guests as well! She works with you to truly capture the love and emotion of your day and delivers quality, beautiful photos.

Love love love

To say Karly was amazing would be an understatement. She is so fun, so sweet, and so talented. She got every shot that we would've wanted when it came to our wedding day (and 9 months later our maternity shoot)
If we would could redo our wedding day we would hire her again in a heartbeat.
She showed up on time, helped coordinate the day, and even our guests noticed how fun she was! Thank you thank you thank you Karly!!
