About Collier Studios

Hi there! I’m Ryan, your future wedding photographer (and biggest wedding day cheerleader).

I’m a husband, dad, and outdoor enthusiast who happens to have the best job in the world—capturing love stories on one of the most unforgettable days of your life. There’s nothing I enjoy more than the energy of a wedding day, the thrill of nailing those perfect shots, and getting to know amazing couples like you.

My photography style blends the best of both worlds: posed and candid. I’ll give you just enough direction to make you feel confident and look incredible, then step back to capture the natural, unscripted moments—the laughter, the happy tears, and all the in-between magic.

Planning a wedding can feel like a lot (trust me, I get it). That’s why I’m here to make the photography process smooth, stress-free, and fun. With 16 years of experience and countless weddings under my belt, I’ll help craft a timeline that’s efficient and works perfectly for your day. You can count on me to guide you through it all while keeping the focus on what matters most—celebrating your love story.

Ready to see if we’re a match? Let’s grab coffee at my favorite local spot and chat about your vision for the big day. I can’t wait to hear all about your love story and how I can help make your wedding unforgettable!

My now husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Ryan for our wedding on October 28, 2023 at the Bay City Country Club. I ran across his name online when I was looking for photographers and I fell in love with the pictures on his website. He made the whole process so easy and was always willing to answer any questions we had. I am obsessed with our pictures! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!

Ryan made the whole process so easy and was always willing to answer any questions we had. From the moment he arrived to the venue to the moment he left I was blown away at his professionalism and his absolute love of what he does. For two people who do not like being the center of attention, he never made us feel uncomfortable or awkward. Ryan is a pro and I cannot thank him enough for capturing the best day of my life in such a perfect way.

It’s my philosophy that you shouldn’t have to plan your wedding around your photographers schedule. Its YOUR day, therefore coverage for all wedding commissions cover your arrival at the church through the formalities at your reception. All wedding collections also include an image disk of (edited) high resolution digital negatives.

2024 wedding commissions start at $2645, with most clients choosing from album collections starting at $3145. I generally fill my schedule from April to October each year, so booking 10 - 12 months in advance is recommended.
