Amy Carroll has been a wedding photographer for over 15 years. She is one of the most sought after wedding photographers in West Michigan. Amy also photographs numerous family and portrait sessions each season. In 2015 she launched her online printshop and currently has work on Minted, West Elm, PB Teen and Urban Outfitters. Amy and her husband, Jeff, bought a cottage in Northern Michigan to use when they photograph weddings and decided to become Airbnb hosts when they are not using themselves. Amy’s exceptional talent put her on the map, but her kindness, warmth, genuineness and willingness to adapt has kept her there for over a decade and a half.

Liv Lyszk is a LGBTQ focused wedding photographer. As a queer woman, she saw a hole in the market and created and launched an online inclusivity workshop in 2019. She also does corporate and 1-on-1 coaching on the same topic. Most recently, she launched a watercolor print shop, featuring kitschy, diversity-celebrating prints and greeting cards.
