Lauren Huels Photography

Q: How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?

Typically, couples book me about 13 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.

Q: Do you have insurance?

I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.

Q: What’s your back-up plan if you can’t photograph our wedding as planned?

In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or my contracted assistant. I’ll also provide you with a list of photographers from the many networking groups I’m in, so you can find the perfect replacement.

Q: How many pictures will we get?

You can expect about 50 to 70 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.

Q: What is required to book?

A signed contract and a retainer secure your date. The remaining balance is split into manageable payments leading up to your wedding.

Q: Do you work with a second photographer?

Yes! All of my pre-made packages include a trusted second shooter. I always recommend having two photographers so we can capture multiple angles, candid reactions, and those little moments happening at the same time. It helps tell a fuller story of your day and ensures nothing is missed.

Q: Do you help with timelines?

Yes! I believe your photos should feel effortless, which starts with a smooth timeline. I help build a photo-friendly schedule so you can be present and stress-free on your wedding day.

Q: What do couples usually love most about working with you?

They often tell me they love how comfortable and cared for they feel. I bring a calming presence while still keeping things fun, and that balance shows up in the photos.

Q: Do you work with LGBTQ+ couples?

Absolutely. All love is welcome and celebrated.

Q: How do you deliver our photos?

You’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view, download, and share your images easily. From there you can also order albums and prints.

About Lauren Huels Photography

Lauren Huels Photography

Michigan & Destination Wedding Photographer

Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m an editorial fine art wedding photographer who loves capturing both timeless portraits and the real in-between moments that make your day one of a kind. My approach is relaxed and intentional, giving you space to be yourselves while I document the laughter, the quiet moments, and everything in between. I believe wedding photography should feel like art while still holding onto the heart of your story. I’m based in Michigan and always ready to travel wherever your love takes you, creating images that feel elevated, genuine, and true to you.

I don’t approach weddings as photo shoots. I approach them as stories that deserve to be lived fully and remembered honestly. My couples get both fine art portraits and raw, unposed moments, but more importantly they get an experience that feels calm, intentional, and deeply personal.

Lauren EXCEEDED any expectations

Lauren Huels was an absolute joy to work with for our anniversary photo session in Savannah. From the moment we first connected, Lauren's communication style was kind, friendly, and quick - putting us at ease and making the whole process fun and seamless!! The quality of her work is truly professional, with a creative and loving touch that captured our relationship perfectly. Lauren wasn't our wedding photographer, we only wish she had been! Her photography skills are clean and timeless, and she was so sweet and amazing to collaborate with throughout our session. We were thrilled with the beautiful, lasting memories she was able to create for us!!!

Lauren Huels Photography was an absolute dream to work with! From our first interaction, her communication was quick, sweet, supportive, and informative, putting us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of her work is simply stunning - the photos she captured are beyond beautiful and worth every penny. When a hurricane derailed our shoot, she was so flexible in rescheduling and made us feel comfortable the entire time. Her kind, understanding nature and the Polaroids she gifted us before leaving were such thoughtful touches. I'm so sad that she won't be in our area much longer, as I would love the opportunity to work with her again. Lauren's work is truly exceptional, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
