Your story, captured

I photograph your wedding day through the touches, laughter, and quiet glances across the room — the moments that make your day feel alive and true. Even when something feels imperfect, it’s often exactly what makes it meaningful.

Your wedding exists in a single day, but the photographs carry the atmosphere, the emotions, and the people who surround you — allowing you to return to those moments for years to come.

For Couples Who Value Depth, Not Just Moments

Your Story, Thoughtfully Preserved

You care about the quiet, intimate moments as much as the joyful celebrations. The way a glance across the room or a gentle touch can say more than words ever could.

You’re drawn to honest, romantic storytelling and want images that feel natural, artful, and timeless. Whether your celebration is small or grand, close to home or across the miles, you want your story preserved in a way that feels personal, effortless, and completely you.

Capturing Your Story With Intention

I take on a limited number of weddings each year so every couple receives my full attention and care. Wedding collections typically begin at $4,000 with most couples investing between $5,000–$6,800 for full-day coverage. Each collection is tailored to your needs, offering flexibility for coverage, digital and film photography, and optional enhancements.

Your wedding collection includes thoughtfully captured digital coverage, a blend of film and digital images, preview photographs delivered within a week, and a fully curated online gallery delivered within two months to relive your day for years to come.

For couples seeking something extra, optional enhancements are available, including Super 8 wedding films to capture motion and nostalgia, rehearsal dinner coverage, additional photographers for extended celebrations, and fine art heirloom albums to preserve your story in a tangible, timeless way.

Dreamy northern michigan wedding by Tara Snyder Studio

Every wedding I photograph is documented with intention, artistry, and care. My goal is to capture your story exactly as it unfolds — the anticipation before the ceremony, the emotion in your vows, the laughter during toasts, and all the quiet, beautiful moments in between. If my work resonates with you, I would love to hear more about your plans and what you’re dreaming up for your wedding day.

Tara was the best decision that we made for our wedding day! I was originally drawn to her dreamy / fairytale like editing style and the fact that she really seemed to be capturing moments, not just photos. She was so communicative throughout the entire process, and is just such a genuine, sweet person. She made the day feel much less stressful and was able to capture all of the important moments I wanted in a way that felt so natural. I have never felt more beautiful than I do in my wedding photos! She also was able to capture posed family photos which were important to my husband and his family, and those are beautiful as well! I would 100% recommend Tara for any event and I hope to get to work with her again in the future!
