AN ADVOCATE

GET TO KNOW YOUR MICHIGAN ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I’m Emily! I live in Southwest Michigan. The path to now started with a point-and-shoot camera, documenting all the fun I had playing outside, traveling with family, and running with my teammates over the years. Unknowingly then, I was being prepared to serve you! Today, I’m blessed to be able to help couples plan elopement experiences immersed in God’s creation to start their marriage.

I’m an Enneagram type 1w2 in regard to personality. I enjoy mid-century modern furniture, dark chocolate + peanut butter, and cabins. My favorite movie is Shawshank Redemption. I enjoy spending quality time with my family out in nature and in my cozy home.

I truly hope to get to know you on a personal level and serve you with my time + talents. A genuinely enjoyable photo experience is also something I want for every couple. Feeling safe and comfortable to be yourselves is important.

I avoid heavily-posed images and will intermittently guide you. I won’t leave you hanging there not knowing what to do. Movement in images is key. None of that “hold still and smile” stuff. Well, maybe a few of those. Calling all fun-loving folks who like to be in nature.

I edit every image you will receive. No outsourcing for someone else to do. In addition, I do not use associate shooters. When you hire Emily Hary Photography, you get me on your day. Simple as that. I take on a couple handfuls of elopements per year, in order to give you the attentive and high-grade service you deserve.
