Michigan Film Photographer | Weddings, Brands, Events & Lifestyle

Are you looking for your iconic moments captured like they belong on the front page?

I'm Ali Folster, a Michigan-based film photographer and content creator specializing in weddings, lifestyle photography, brand photography, events, and editorial storytelling. My career began in Los Angeles, where I worked alongside influencers, creatives, and growing brands, before taking me to New York City to collaborate with hotels, models, and businesses while immersing myself in the art of 35mm and medium format film photography.

Today, I blend documentary storytelling with editorial direction to create imagery that feels both timeless and unforgettable. From candid, paparazzi-inspired moments to intentional portraits captured on film, every image is crafted to tell a story with authenticity, emotion, and style.

Whether you're planning a wedding, launching a brand, hosting an event, or documenting a season of life, I create cinematic, nostalgic photographs that preserve moments exactly as they felt.

Serving Detroit, Royal Oak, Ferndale, Ann Arbor, Rochester Hills, Birmingham, New York City, and destinations worldwide.
