Hi! Welcome to Poniatoski Photography.

I’m Courtney Poniatoski, the photographer behind the lens. I’m based in Northern Lower Michigan, a place I’ve proudly called home most of my life. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m usually with my family—soaking up beach days, cheering on the soccer sidelines, or heading out on our next adventure. Photography is my passion because I love telling your story through real, meaningful moments. My goal is to capture authentic images that feel relaxed and true to you—never stiff, overly posed, or forced.
