We were referred to Craig and Bonnie by a friend of a friend. They're nothing short of fantastic.

They're the only photographers I've ever seen shooting at the rehearsal.

And I've never seen wedding photos that can compare with what Craig and Bonnie deliver. Their shots are all well composed, balanced, and artistic. They do only what you ask and do a great job of not monopolizing the Bride and Groom.

Their albums aren't just photos in a binder, they're really storybooks of your wedding. My wife and I still look through it from time to time. And the video, with the full, unedited ceremony, the edited version and the 3 minute "summary" is just fantastic. It's hard to sit through someone’s wedding video, but a 3 minute montage set to the music of your choice is just great.

We've been going back to them for maternity photos and pictures of our growing baby and we'll be going to see them for as long as they're willing to see us.

Thanks Bonnie and Craig!

Best. Photographers. EVER!

They were my photographers for my wedding four years ago. And when I look at my pictures or watch the video I still think they were worth every penny!

Craig and Bonnie were excellent....our wedding pictures and video are AMAZING!!! They were both so helpful and enjoyable to work with and we got our gorgeous engagent and wedding pictures back so quickly.

We loved Craig & Bonnie! They really made our wedding even more memorable and relaxed. Our wedding pictures truly look like they are right out of a magazine; they're just beautiful. Two years later, I still hear from other people that our pictures are the best that they have ever seen before. Jen & Shaun (September 2006)

Wow- the best around....They are not only the best wedding photographers in the area, but they captured the most amazing newborn and infant portraits of our son. We'll treasure them forever! We can't wait to work with Craig David Butler Studios again in the future!

Craig and Bonnie are the best, nothing more to say. I have been married for 2 years and still cry my eyes out whenever I watch my wedding video. As a wedding planner, I refer them first to all my clients. They are our family's lifetime photographer!

Amazing is an understatement! They deserve 6 stars! Above and beyond is the only way to sum up this team. I am not sure which I was more impressed with- their gorgeous work or the kindness and care that they give to you along with their work. Instantly likeable and totally credible. It's hard to find photographers who have it all- no question they deserve to be known as Detroit's best.

I attended a wedding this past JUNE that Craig photographed and video taped I was impressed by the different shots and angles he was taking. When I saw the pictures and video a few weeks later it confirmed my feelings of that day. I would recommend this photographer to any one knowing that the results would be spectacular.

Belle Creative / Craig David Butler Studios take wonderful pictures. They took the photographs of my youngest daughter's wedding three years ago. Next year they will be taking my other daughter's wedding pictures. Their videos are also spectacular. Craig and Bonnie Butler are very knowledgeable and friendly people whom I totally recommend.

Bonnie and Craig were the photographers for our daughters wedding in March of this year and they were wonderful to work with! You never saw bright lights shining in your eyes and our guests commented that they never even noticed them. Our proofs were on-line in a matter of days and we all have the most fairy tale wedding albums that you could ever imagine. One of guests from the wedding has a daughter getting married and she is using Craig and Bonnie and we have a family member getting married next year and she is using them. A true compliment to their professionalism and creativity

Amazing! Outstanding! Wonderful! Beautiful! Add any other superlative to the quality, professionalism and abilities of Craig and Bonnie Butler to the list. My wife and I were married in June and Craig and Bonnie provided photography and videography services. Before we saw the pictures/video we knew they would be worth every penny we spent simply based on how they treated us and how hard they worked throughout the day. The best part is they work so hard without being a disruption to the day. They captured so many candid moments that are so much more meaningful than 1000 posed pictures. They are better people than they are photographers, which is saying a lot. My wife and I cried for hours when we first saw a video collage of our pictures upon return from our honeymoon. It was simply amazing. They are not only best of Detroit, I would argue they are the best in the nation. Great work! Even better people. Kudos to Craig and Bonnie Butler and their team.

Craig and Bonnie are not only wonderful photographers, but they are mini- wedding planners on your wedding day. They know exactly what to do and how to get your memorable pictures quickly! We got married two years ago, and will continue to use them as our photographers to capture our future family moments.

Craig and Bonnie was the best decision we had made for our wedding. We were amazed how the captured every detail of our day we cannot say enough how personable and sincere they both are. You guys are the best and it shows through your pictures! My husband and I both still enjoy looking through our album. It's true that a picture says a thousand words.Craig and Bonnie perfected that.

Craig Butler Studios is phenominal!! Craig and Bonnie are extremely professional, lots of fun, very creative, and wonderfully patient. They are so good at capturing your day and yet staying out of the way. I realized after the wedding that most of the time I didn't even realize they were there and yet they captured every moment beautifully!! I would recommend Craig and Bonnie to everyone I know for their photographic needs ... as a matter of fact, my sister is using them next year for her big day!!

Bonnie & Craig are AMAZING people who do AMAZING work! Once we met them there was no going back! When I look at our engagement pictures I still can't believe that it is us! Having them as our photographers makes me even that much more excited to actually get married! I can't wait to see what they do for the wedding! Above and beyond the fantastic moments that they capture, they are wonderful to work with and make you feel like you are the most important person in the world. They are there to support you every step of the way and have answers for anything you need. They have helped make our dreams come true! We have photographers for life!

I am continually impressed by the beauty of our photos and album each day I look at them. If you are looking for the best photographer to capture the true essence of your special day you should stop looking because you have found them!

Craig and Bonnie not only do amazing work but they have to be the kindest people that we have ever met. From the get go we hit it off very well and Craig and Bonnie are two that we walked away and made a new friendship. They made us feel that our wedding was their most important which I think is a wonderful quality with all the other weddings that they had going on. They did a wonderful job at making our day very special and providing us with absolutely beautiful memories.

Imaginative, remarkable, friendly, creative, considerate are just some of the words that come to mind when thinking about Craig and Bonnie. Holly and I could not be happier with the way everything turned out. They somehow captured every intimate moment that we wanted to be able to relive forever. Hands down they are everything we could have hoped for and more!

The Butlers are such a great family! My husband and I are SO glad that I found Belle Creative when it was time to do our wedding. The quality of the pictures is indescribable! I look at my wedding album more often than I thought I would, and every time, I get a tear in my eye, a laugh in my heart and my breath is taken away!! They captured more than just memories with their photographs.

I gave birth to a Son in March, and can not wait to see Bonnie and Craig again and show them our new bundle of joy!!

Belle Creative is so exceptional!!

Thank you so much!

Craig and Bonnie are fantastic and their work is amazing. I still get compliments on my pictures and wedding album. People have told me they wish they could get their pictures and wedding album re-done after seeing ours and how unique and beautiful it is. They are so professional and so easy to work with. There is enough to worry about on your wedding day, if you work with Craig and Bonnie, rest assured your day will be relaxing and their photography will be awe-inspiring.
