She somehow managed to get us some wonderful portraits of the 11 of us, each individual family, and captured some gorgeous candid shots as well. This was quite a feat with 5 children (4 of which were toddlers!) She's a miracle worker! Love the quality of the images she sent us! Highly recommend! We will be using her again.

The best of the best!!!…read more My husband and I dreamt of having our engagement photos taken at the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes and Pierece Stocking Drive, and when we found Rayan's portfolio we knew we had to meet her. Rayan is one of the most genuine people we have ever met. She is someone who honestly loves to capture moments of love. She gives back so much more than beautiful photos. Rayan gave us an experience we will never forget during our engagement session and her presence on our wedding day was exactly the kind of support we needed. We could not imagine anyone else navigating the day so closely with us. Rayan's work ethic and creativity is unrivaled, words honestly can't express how incredible her talent and personality are. We will always go to Rayan for life's precious moments. If you're thinking about meeting her for your wedding, do it. You won't be disappointed.

While we will take photos in the Frankfort/Traverse City area, we are also willing to travel where-ever you would like to go!

My now husband hates having his picture taken but she was so patient and kept the mood light. Having Linda do our pictures felt natural, not "now place this hand on that hip and turn your chin to an uncomfortable angle." On top of her great personality and talent, Linda put together a beautiful package deal. I love our prints and everyone who comes over comments on how nice they look. Thanks again Portraits by Linda!
