Jamie Fodale Wedding Photography

10/18/2024

Debbie and Todd's wedding was very laid back. They have been planning it for sometime. They did not stress about anything. The weather was gorgeous. Their friends and family were fun. The bride's daughter made the bridesmaid and flower girl dresses. The bride's sister and daughter did her makeup and hair. Debbie and Todd had a wine ceremony and wrote each other letters to open later. It was all so personalized, just like a wedding should be. I don't photography many weddings, but if they were all like this, I could be tempted. Congratulations Debbie and Todd!

A special thank you to Beth for her help. I couldn't have done it without you!

Happy engagement to this couple. It's a bit of a wait, but I will be photographing their wedding next year. The countdown is on. I just love using this pond for sessions.

154 Photographers in the Metro Detroit area, coming together to create something to show support for hardest thing many of us has ever had to do: Stay home, and put our businesses on hold. Both Legally and ethically.

It's not easy - Financially, emotionally, all of us has so much to lose but we know the risks are far greater than the alternatives. We stay home because we want to get through this pandemic safely and the more we all stand together, the quicker it will pass and the quicker we'll all be back photographing our clients weddings, portraits, events, and memories again.

Every one of the photographers involved created a unique self portrait to represent a color of the rainbow. We chose the rainbow as a show of positive support to everyone in these dark times, and the rainbow has been so prevalent throughout Michigan, across the USA, and worldwide throughout this coronavirus pandemic . Rainbows, like photography, are made by LIGHT, and we wanted to shine a light to let everyone know we're with you, we miss you, and we're staying bright together.

Please remember to support all the workers in every industry right now who are working either by potentially putting themselves at risk for your safety, like the amazing healthcare and frontline emergency workers, restaurant workers or really any essential-to-life workers, or like us photographers and creatives, who are doing our part by just-staying-home. There are thousands of us in this industry alone and for this project, 154 joined together to show just a small part of this amazing community we're a part of.
And when this is done and the pandemic has passed, we'll be right there to capture your light again.

Part of our Happily Ever After series. Celebrating 48 years of marriage. ❤️

This is part of a personal project I am creating called Happily Ever After. I’m celebrating couples that have been married 40+ years. It’s not too late to nominate your favorite couple.

We celebrate couples when they begin their lives together at their weddings. Rarely do we get to celebrate the life they’ve created together, the love that they share, and their Happily Ever After.

Just leaving another 40+ wedding anniversary session for my Happily Ever After project. Gorgeous morning and a lovely couple.

Not too long ago, Jamie Fodale Photography was hired by Erica and Ashlea for their upcoming wedding. As part of the wedding package, we worked in the engagement session. These sessions are so important for a number of reasons, not just for save the dates, although that is reason enough! But also so that the couple and the photographer get a chance to get to know each other before the big day. I adored my time with these two! Such a fun and laughter filled session downtown at Eastern Market and Greek Town. Is there anything sweeter than dancing in the street and sharing a pastry? I cannot wait for the wedding. Thank you both, for choosing my studio to capture this happy event!

Hey everyone! Just wanted to let you know that we're still here, still photographing weddings and portraits... I'm in the process of combining my wedding page with my portrait photography page so be sure to check both for awhile!

Tuesday, July 23 LADIES NIGHT at the studio.

We had so much fun in May at our last event, with PR guru Tina Connery that we are planning another ladies party at our studio in downtown Armada.

$100 for the event will get you $50 in Pure Romance products, a mini photo session, and a 5x7 print.

Sessions are 30 minutes, one outfit, and by appointment only. You are welcome to indulge in any type of session you would like - from a business head shot, to a beautiful artistic glamour portrait, or a bo***ir session. We will have a variety of sets at the studio. We have also added a second photographer.

Sessions WILL SELL OUT! Bring a friend, get pampered with having your hair and makeup done in our studio, your personal photo session, and then head out for dinner all dolled up! Make it an all day experience!

Contact me for additional info and sample images.

Edit : CLOSED

The response was quick and I had some wonderful candidates. I’ve decided to photograph all 10 couples who were nominated! Can’t wait for these sessions!

This is so sweet. I’m working on personal projects and would love to photograph a couple that has been together for 40+ years.

The session is on me. You are welcome to post below or DM me your nomination.

❤️,

Rosa and Russo didn't have a photographer on hand in 1957.

I'm searching for a fun playful couple to photograph. I have a specific styled session in mind. If you think it could be you or a friend, tag them below. You don't have to be engaged or newly married. I'm interested in a couple comfortable around each other. That's the only requirement. Send me a DM!
