Picture yourself at Meadow Brook.

Photo shoots are more than a way to fill the frames on your mantle and update your social media feed. They’re a way to bottle up the magic of life’s changing seasons and hold onto it long after the newlywed sparkle settles, and the children grow tall.

Request Photo or Video Shoot

Now is such a special moment.
Capture it forever.

Meadow Brook Hall photo shoots are perfect for:

  • Wedding photos
  • Engagement photos
  • Family photos
  • Senior portraits
  • And more

All photo and video sessions are limited to our grounds and gardens, as indoor photo shoots are reserved for facility rental clients.

Rates for photography and/or videography sessions vary depending on the size of your group.

  • Groups 1-5 people: $200 for the first hour and $125 each additional hour
  • Groups 6-15 people: $375 for the first hour and $125 each additional hour
  • Groups 16-25 people: $525 for the first hour and $125 for each additional hour

Sessions that are scheduled outside of our public hours (11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.) are subject to an additional after-hours premium fee of $75 per hour. Groups larger than 25 guests may incur an additional rate per person. All sessions must be paid in full when they are scheduled.

Please allow 1 – 3 business days for a response when submitting your photo shoot request. On days where there is high museum activity, such as public touring or community event days, request response times may be longer. Please note that we may be unable to accommodate requests submitted less than 7 days prior to the requested photo shoot date.

Drone usage is strictly prohibited for private videography and photography sessions at Meadow Brook Estate.

Please note: We do not book photo shoots from mid-November through the end of December because of estate activity during the Holidays at Meadow Brook.
