About
Hello, I’m Al from 8K Studios. I’ve spent years capturing weddings and corporate events, and I founded 8K Media to offer thoughtful, professional photo and video coverage.
I see my role as your documentarian. My eye is always searching for those photo-worthy moments—fleeting glances, laughter, and of course, romance. I collaborate closely with you so your photos and video truly tell your story.
From helping you feel comfortable in front of the camera to planning the flow of your day to maximize great shots, you’ll have my full attention and support from start to finish.
If you’re looking for a relaxed, attentive photographer/videographer who focuses on your unique day, I’d love to connect and talk about your vision.

We hired Al to take family pictures while we were vacationing near Fennville. He was very responsive on app and arrived well prepared to photograph a series of poses and locations with all age groups! The pictures came out wonderful and we were extremely happy with his service. Thank you for your skill and professionalism Al!!
