MEET JOANNA

Hey there! I'm Joanna, but you can call me Jo! I am a Michigan wedding and elopement photographer obsessed with capturing the unique and mundane moments of relationships. When I first picked up a camera, I immediately knew that I found something that I loved. My goal as your photographer is to make you feel and look like yourself - because no one can replace you.

From the CLients

Madeleine & Seth

" There are not enough words in the English language to say how much we recommend Joanna! She so perfectly captured our day in exactly the way we wanted and you can see the love, joy, and warmth in every picture. She made us feel like absolute rockstars all day and we could not be happier. Definitely the best investment we made in our day and now we get to look back on our gallery and relive our best moments forever through our gorgeous pictures that are so full of life and FUN. RUN don’t walk to book her!!!"

Carlie & Joe

“ I highly recommend booking with Joanna immediately! She made everything super easy, fun and stress free. On top of that she was an awesome person to spend the day with. She understood exactly what we wanted and captured our wedding day perfectly! Thankfully Joanna also was our photographer for our engagement photos too. My husband and I are both very camera shy and she was nice enough to explain how to position ourselves and was so so patient with us. By the time our wedding arrived we knew we were in the best hands.”

Chase & Megan

" What an amazing photographer! The whole process was great, Joanna was so professional as well as fun to work with. She answered emails with a great response time, she answered all questions thoroughly, and she was very informative right from the start. Joanna was very punctual the day off, she even got there earlier than planed and was able to capture even more beautiful moments. When the timeline or other things didn't go as planned she was a huge help and problem solved with us. We absolutely loved our engagement and wedding photos. She captured us so beautifully and uniquely. She made us feel comfortable with the camera and added creative ideas when we didn't know how to pose. Joanna is truly is an AWESOME photographer!"

Seth & Sara

" Joanna was a delight to work with for our elopement, and we could not be happier with our photos! Not only is she mega talented, she was organized, made us feel comfortable in front the camera, and made sure our adventurous day was exactly what we wanted."

Will & Jordyn

" Joanna was hands down one of the best vendors that we had for our wedding day! I cannot say enough good things about her and her quality of work. The entire process from booking to engagement photos to wedding photos was seamless and straightforward. As a couple that had never done professional photos before, Joanna made the experience feel natural and authentic. She had a wonderful balance of guiding and directing us for the best photography opportunities while also capturing natural moments of our wedding day. She kept in contact with us throughout the entire process, shared helpful tips, and even gave us recommendations for our honeymoon in Ireland! She was timely, communicative, talented, professional, easy going, and SO sweet! Both of our families mentioned how wonderful Joanna was during the ceremony+ reception with guiding them for photos and the skill of the photos speak for themselves. We will definitely be looking to hire Joanna for any future photography needs that we have. :)"

Allie & Slade

" Joanna is not only a professional, but she is passionate about what she does! She makes you so relaxed, and the photos show it. Joanna shot my husband and I on our wedding day and our engagement shoot. Saying I’m not comfortable in front of the camera Is a huge understatement, and I didn’t expect them to look as natural and beautiful as they did! Not only is she wicked talented behind the camera, she pays so much attention to editing even the smallest detains, ensuring the best photos possible. I can’t recommend her enough! If you want someone who cares about you and makes you feel as beautiful as you are, go with Joanna Grace!"

Caleb & Simone

" Joanna is fantastic! She made everything so easy, relaxing, and smooth for us. From getting ready, grabbing coffee with us before the ceremony, and the end of the reception, she was there to capture all the moments. As someone who feels awkward in front of the camera, she’s fantastic at giving enough direction to know how it’ll look on camera while letting us do our own thing. Her editing style is amazing too, I love that we got some film photos in addition to the digital ones. Wherever you’re getting married in the world, I highly recommend her!"

Lilly & Austin

" Joanna shot my wedding and let me tell you, they are the most genuine and stunning pictures I have ever seen! I couldn’t believe she captured all those little moments and made them look so effortless and full of joy. She took all of my (many) notes that I had for pictures and brought them to life, while making me feel pampered and confident knowing she’s got it all taken care of! Joanna knows what she’s doing, but still gives you creative flexibility for what YOU want. She’s not just there to take pictures of a wedding, she’s there to take pictures for you and YOUR wedding!"

Lizzy & Ryan

" I don't even know where to begin! Joanna is amazing! We started planning our wedding in June of 2020 and even with the plans changing many times Joanna was always on board for what we wanted to do. She traveled to downtown Detroit with us and took the most amazing pictures! It was like my husband and I were hanging out with a friend! She even put up with our crazy bunch of a bridal party. If you are looking for a photographer for anything, I highly recommend Joanna!! "

Kevin & Ally

" Joanna is confident, personal, and professional. My husband and I didn’t expect to have a photographer that helped us so much on our wedding day! Not only did she take incredible photos, but she always made sure we were doing okay and treated us like royalty. We couldn’t ask for better photos to remember our special day. I highly recommend Joanna Grace Photography."

Brenna & Jonah

" Joanna is truly better in every way than I could have asked for! She captured both our engagement session, AND after being so in love with her vision, we were lucky enough to book her for a small family session as well. The resulting photos from both sessions were an absolute dream. I love how she captures our genuine selves in such a unique way. My fiancé and I felt like time stopped when we were looking through our engagement photos - I will cherish them and all the love and effort she put into creating them forever. I will also say Joanna eased any potential nerves we had, she is SO easy to be comfortable around, gave us ideas, helped us with everything from locations to outfits, and that made all the difference. I cannot say enough wonderful things! Definitely take the chance to book her if you have the opportunity :) "
