Wedding Photography
Editorial imagery for the hopelessly romantic
Artful, wedding photography preserving the beauty, emotion, and moments that make your celebration entirely your own.
Editorial - Romantic - Intentional
photographs that feel like you
Your wedding deservers to be remembered as more than a collection of beautiful images - it deserves to be remembered exactly as it felt
The White Rose Experience
More than beautiful photographs.
From our first conversation to your final gallery, my role goes far beyond showing up with a camera. I'll help you build a photography-friendly timeline, guide you naturally when you need direction, and step back when a moment deserves to unfold on its own.
The result is a wedding day that feels like your wedding - not a photoshoot - and a gallery that preserves both how it looked and how it felt.
Intentional Guidance
Natural direction that helps you look and feel your best without enforcing moments that aren't you.
Story-Driven Coverage
From carefully chosen details to the fleeting, unscripted moments happening in between.
A Calm, Experienced Presence
Knowing when to step in, and when to step back, and how to keep photography flowing naturally throughout your day.

The heart behind White Rose,
Photography has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up watching my dad photograph weddings from his own studio, and what began as something I was surrounded by eventually became something I fell in love with myself.
Today I bring that same love for the craft into every wedding I photograph - creating space for genuine moments while offering thoughtful direction when you need it.
Courtney and Max were absolutely incredible to work with! They photographed both our engagement session and our wedding day, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough. From the very beginning, they were so organized and detail-oriented — they helped us plan out a full wedding day timeline and made sure everything ran smoothly. Their energy and kindness made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos turned out more beautiful than we ever could have imagined. On top of that, they went above and beyond for us — since we didn’t have a videographer, they took the time to capture videos of our ceremony, first dances, and speeches so we could relive those moments forever. Courtney and Max are not only incredibly talented photographers, but also such genuine, thoughtful people. We feel so lucky to have had them as part of our wedding day!

Courtney and Max are so amazing! They did both our engagement photos and wedding day, and all the pictures came out even better than we could have imagined. They made us feel so comfortable with the positive energy they brought, creating a fun environment every session. The attention to detail was above and beyond. They made sure to reference photos from our Pinterest board, and even took videos of special moments, like our first dance, on our wedding day without us even asking. It is very obvious that Courtney and Max love what they do and it makes their talent shine even brighter. I cannot recommend them enough. I’m so thankful they were there to capture our big day!

We truly could not have asked for better wedding photographers than Courtney and Max. From the very beginning, their communication was clear, professional, and reassuring, which made a huge difference during such a busy season of life. On our wedding day, everything felt effortless. They were organized, and knew exactly how to guide us while still letting moments happen naturally. The photos themselves are absolutely perfect! Courtney and Max captured every moment that we were hoping for! We had some fun props that we brought and they were able to come up with some great photo ideas incorporating the props! We are beyond grateful for the care and effort they put into one of the most important days of our lives. We would recommend Courtney to any couple without hesitation! — Braden & Kenzie

Courtney & Max did a fantastic job from our first photoshoot and meeting them until capturing our big day. They were laid back, made us feel comfortable and did a great job at capturing us and our love story! We absolutely love all of our photos from every shoot and loved the editing style as well. Pricing and the packages offered was a big part as well for us when searching and the packages included great perks and additions which was awesome! We are so happy we went with White Rose and highly recommend! Everyone is obsessed over our photos and we will have the memories forever! 10/10!

If I could give 10 stars I would because holy moly Courtney and Max killed this. From prepping and being at three different locations they absolutely rocked every moment. In-laws and family are obsessed with the shots that they captured. I cried when looking through my album and I just absolutely recommend anyone who can book them should do it ASAP. They are so kind and organized and I love the work they do! Have them capture your day and you won’t regret it! Signed one ecstatic bride!
Trent & DeAnna
Courtney and Max were wonderful to work with! They did both our engagement and wedding photos and we couldn't recommend them enough. We love her natural editing style and creativity. They brought a camcorder for our groomsmen to carry around and vlog our wedding and it was such a hit! We didn't have a videographer, and they captured videos throughout the entire day of different moments. Courtney was incredibly kind and so easy to work with! We will cherish these photos forever!
Jordan & Baleigh
Courtney was an absolute pleasure to work with. I wouldn’t have chosen anyone else to capture our wedding. From the engagement shoot to the actual wedding, the whole process, communication and outcome was amazing. It was great working with Max as well. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, got everyone in and out of all the family pics (which looked so amazing), and got the cutest candids. I will cherish these photos forever and I am so happy that I am able to love my wedding photos as much as I do. Thanks again, Courtney!
Will & Jillian
We had the absolute best experience working with Courtney & Max as our wedding photographers! From the very start, Courtney was super responsive, incredibly kind, and so easy to work with. On our wedding day, they went above and beyond to capture every little detail of the day! When we received our gallery, we were blown away. We LOVED our photos and couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Their talent speaks for itself, and we’ll cherish these pictures forever!! Highly recommend!

Courtney and Max are the BEST. They did both our engagement shoot, Courtney did my boudoir shoot, and they did my wedding. My fiance and his groomsmen LOVED Max - he got the coolest getting ready shots of them at our campground wedding. And Courtney is the sweetest ever - her birthday was the day of our wedding. She never told us this and continued shooting and we didn’t find out till the end of the night - she went above and beyond all day and showed us previews on her camera at the end of the night of all the fun candid shots that were exactly what we wanted. You will NOT regret hiring Courtney. She’s organized, prompt, and made our day run so smoothly. Thank you for everything White Rose!!!
Jake & Michelle
Courtney was our photographer for our engagement photos and wedding. She is everything that we hoped for for our photographer. She was flexible, affordable, and got our photos back to us in a timely matter. She went over every detail of the wedding with us before hand and made sure we got all of the photos that we wanted. She also had so many great ideas for different locations and poses which made us so much more comfortable. Most importantly our photos turned out amazing! We highly recommend Courtney and Max!
Chris & Katrina
White Rose Photography was amazing, Courtney truly has an eye for posing and locations for pictures. We had our engagement and wedding photos done by her, got sneak peaks just days after the wedding, and I don’t know how we’re going to pick our favorites because there’s so many to choose from. We also had a lot of family pictures we wanted at different times, and we got all the pictures we wanted and more. Courtney and Max are also very personable and easy to work with, and communication was a breeze. Thank you White Rose Photography!

I am SO glad that I found Courtney and White Rose Photography to do my photos! I originally found Courtney through Instagram, as I wanted a Michigan-based photographer who had taken pictures at my ceremony venue before. I immediately fell in the love with the aesthetic of Courtney's photos and knew that she would be a great fit. Not only does Courtney take beautiful pictures, but her prices are beyond reasonable for the stellar results that you get and she was so easy to coordinate with! My husband is also not great at taking photos, especially staged photos, but Courtney gave such great, easy to follow direction it made the whole process (basically) painless for him. Could not recommend Courtney and White Rose Photography enough!
Shane & Jordan
Matt and Courtney are the best! They were so professional and it was so comforting they were there for us the entire day. They were also so willing to travel for us and work with us to make sure our vision was executed. We are so happy with our photos. I also did a boudoir shoot and Courtney made me feel so comfortable! Would highly recommend White Rose Photography, we are looking forward to our anniversary shoot!
Paul & Michaela
Courtney and Max were both so friendly during our engagement session! We had so much fun and are OBSESSED with how our photos turned out! Courtney was extremely helpful with posing and made us feel so at ease. We cannot wait for our big day to see all of the special moments that will be captured.
