Hello, I'm Lisa!

 Hello, welcome to my creativity. I look forward to meeting you and creating beautiful portraits for your home!

- Lisa Kahler, 

Award Winning & Published Owner/Photographer

And, now Certified Boutique Photographer.

My What:

I am a certified boutique photographer, which means I specialize in creating beautiful, heirloom quality artwork to live on your walls. There is an assurance of exceptional portrait artistry in what I do. Portrait art pieces that remind you of a wonderful time with the most important people & pets in your life. I have a passion for treating photography as what it is; Art. I am an award winning photographer who takes pride in giving impeccable attention to detail, from my years of photography experience & knowledge. As well as a passion for crafting experiences for my clients that will be remembered forever! 


My Why: 

I'm driven to empower our youth, strengthen a family bond and create lasting memories that outlive our own with my gift of photography because as a child I felt invisible in my family. Sure I have snapshots of me as a child and even a few small prints but nothing was in view so my perception of myself was what I heard from others and it was not the truth. We never once had family portraits done and we were never really a family unit with a loving bond. My desire is to be sure every child feels the love of their family during our portrait adventures and can see that love in the portraits I create that will forever hang on the walls of their homes for generations. So as to never forget themselves or their legacy. So a child can look up and see themselves as they are and not as someone at school or on the playground might make them feel. You are special, you are loved, and you are enough!  

My Certification

Being a Certified Boutique Photographer is something I’m truly proud of, but what matters most is what it means for you and your family. In September 2024, I earned this certification after completing a rigorous process designed to ensure the highest level of care, artistry, and professionalism. I’m honored to be the only Certified Boutique Photographer in the SE MI to NW Ohio area, and one of just 2 in Michigan. This certification is a reflection of my commitment to creating a luxury experience and heirloom-quality artwork for families like yours.

• Professional guidance from our first conversation through the final artwork delivery
• Meticulous attention to detail in every aspect of your experience

"Lisa was absolutely amazing to work with. I wanted some photos with my newly adopted fur baby, Zaida. Lisa was not only a patient saint, but she gives great direction & the photos turned out incredible! Colors were vibrant & she captured so much love in her shots. My family loved them as gifts at Christmas time & I couldn't be happier to have them up in my home! Thank you Lisa!"
