I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Sean gave us an incredible experience with stunning results. He was punctual, professional, and gave very clear instructions for his shoots. He also was very excited to be a part of the process and involved in our special day. When it came time for the ceremony and reception, he was sure to stay out of the spotlight and took incredible pictures without us having to remember that he was there. 10/10 experience and 10/10 quality on the final photo results. We would highly recommend him for any event you may have coming up!

I have been in the wedding business for over 10 year with owning a day of and rental business first!

Natalie and Jason were absolutely amazing to work with! From the time I booked, through engagement sessions, pre wedding calls, and the wedding they were on top of it all. Natalie and Jason made us both very comfortable to where we could be ourselves and as well as the bridal party also, so our pictures showed our true day!

Working with Brian and Joelle completely eased my anxieties about being photographed for the first time. From our very first conversations during the planning process (where Brian took the time to create a personalized timeline for our wedding day) to engagement photos in a gorgeous spot Brian recommended to us, to the celebration itself, the powerhouse of a team made every step feel effortless, comfortable, and exciting. If you’re someone who feels awkward in front of a camera, this is the team for you. They have an incredible way of melting away those worries and guiding you through the experience, leaving you with lifelong memories and photos that make you feel like you’ve been modeling your whole life! The two of them struck the perfect balance between offering direction and allowing natural moments to unfold, so nothing ever felt forced or awkward. Their professionalism, kindness, and calming presence made such a difference. They even felt like part of our guest list, as if we’d known them for years, and they helped us feel completely relaxed throughout the entire day! Their communication/planning skills are also superb, and being in touch months before the wedding with check-ins beforehand made all the difference in our pre-wedding "panic". When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. Every image beautifully captured not only the big moments, but also the little details and emotions that made our wedding so special. Brian and Joelle have truly set the standard for what a wedding photography experience should be, and we couldn’t have imagined a better team to document one of the most important days of our lives. We also chose to have our wedding professionally filmed, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Watching our wedding film instantly transported us back to the day, allowing us to relive every emotion and moment in a way that even the best phone videos never could. Thank you both for giving Jon and me memories we’ll treasure forever. To anyone wondering whether professional wedding photography and videography are truly worth the investment, we can say without hesitation that they absolutely are, especially with Brian and Joelle. We wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple looking for photographers who are not only incredibly talented, but also genuinely caring and invested in making your day as special as possible. By the end of your wedding, you’ll feel like you’ve known them for years. You won’t just receive stunning photos and a beautiful film... you’ll gain two wonderful people whose experience, guidance, and heartfelt passion will make your wedding day even more unforgettable. This is the ONE day you get to make it count, so choose Brian and Joelle to capture it for you!

Wedding photography is more than just taking photos to me but it’s about capturing real emotions, meaningful moments, and memories that couples can cherish forever. I’m passionate about documenting love stories in a way that feels natural, timeless, and authentic.

As I continue growing in the wedding industry, My goal is to tell each couple’s story through photographs they can look back on for years to come and relive one of the most important days of their lives.

Kloé is a phenomenal photographer. A normal planned family photo shoot between my boyfriend and I turned into a surprise engagement orchestrated by the two of them. Kloé’s the type of photographer that doesn’t just take photographs but captures the emotions, feelings, and moment so perfectly. She made the session fun and enjoyable. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

We can't recommend OLAS enough! Our photographer, Victoria, was amazing—super bubbly and made us feel comfortable right away during both our engagement and wedding shoots. She was so fun to work with while remaining highly professional and knowledgeable. The variety in our photos was incredible, but some of my favorites were the natural ones that perfectly captured our personalities. The rest of the OLAS team was also fantastic, helping us develop a detailed timeline and sharing portfolios of potential photographers to choose from. We received our photos quickly, and they were beautifully edited and of exceptional quality. Be sure to check out OLAS—and definitely ask for Victoria!

My husband and I cannot recommend Ali enough to anyone looking for a photographer!! We first got in contact with Ali last year for our planned wedding, but due to unforeseen circumstances we were unable to have our big day, BUT we were lucky enough to transfer her services over to my sister and brother and law! After meeting Ali in person on their wedding day and seeing the magic she can do, it was an absolute no brainer that she would be there for our big day and any and every other event we need photography for! She truly became family and we cannot thank her enough for everything she’s done! She goes above and beyond in her work and truly makes the day so much easier and more fun than ever!

Hi :) I have a background in social work so am used to walking into all kinds of situations and interacting with all sorts of people.

Not only do I love capturing those candid moments but I also enjoy guiding loved ones through interacting together to come up with more natural moments to capture actual good times! To help the day run as smoothly as possible we also send out a wedding photography survey going over times and shot details to make sure we are on the same page ahead of time, with wanted poses on this list as well.

Rachel and Andy were THE BEST!!!! They delivered the most beautiful pictures and video to us, exceeding our expectations. Not to mention how quick we received the pictures! Something I absolutely loved was how detail-oriented they were. Every shot that I had mentioned to them when we first started chatting, they made sure to incorporate on our big day, such as candids, small details, and black and white pictures. Last minute, I asked them if they’d be able to go to the location where the groomsmen were getting ready and just like that, they did! Super flexible and extremely great to work with. If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, hands down the best!

While I've been photographing weddings for 20 years, my professional career began far from cameras. I created NPR's first satellite news stream and in 2006, after I left the NPR world, I fell in love with photographing weddings! I spent the majority of my wedding career in Washington DC, and relocated to Cleveland in 2023.

My husband and I could not recommend Andrew more highly. We were immediately struck by his unique documentary-style and engaging photography. From our first encounter with him, we were inspired by Andrew’s passion, creativity, whimsy, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Over our planing calls, we got to know one another well and build a vision for the day that Andrew executed above and beyond any hopes or expectations. He captured organic moments of joy, connection, reverence, and raw emotion that tell a story of our relationship and community, not just a highlight reel of posed moments. Prepared with jokes, candor, and some serious running shoes, his energy and warmth made him a huge hit with our guests - people are commenting on how wonderful he was weeks later. Look no further for your photographer!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

What started as a spontaneous purchase in 2019—a $50 camera from eBay—turned into a dream I now get to live every day. Not long after picking up that camera, I won an award, showed work in galleries, and was published. With years of encouragement from others, I eventually made the leap to full-time photography—and I’ve never looked back. Weddings are where everything I love about photography comes together. I get to witness and capture the best moments from every angle—those quick glances, bursts of laughter, and quiet emotions that pass in a heartbeat.

Photos By Michael U were the perfect wedding photographers for our special day. From the start, Michael was kind, and patient, taking the time to understand exactly what we wanted. His communication was specific and thoughtful, and he brought a beautiful, personalized experience to our wedding. The quality of his work was impeccable, and he provided great value at an affordable price. I didn't have to worry about a thing, as Michael thought of every detail and went above and beyond my expectations. We are thrilled with the gorgeous photos that perfectly captured the joy and love of our wedding day.

We're a happily married Pittsburgh couple that met in a philosophy class in college (both Saint Vincent grads.) We instantly bonded over our love for philosophical debate and adventure. We are obsessed with what we do for a living and have been shooting together since we met. We offer both Photography and Videography services, and are skilled hybrid shooters.

Devan and Kaleigh took our fall family photos and they turned out amazing! By far the best family photos we’ve ever had taken. They were so patient with my kids and made it so fun for them! The kids had a blast!

Abigail photographed my Halloween themed wedding in 2021 and absolutely knocked it out of the park. The photos were beautiful, working with her was so easy, and the turn around time on the pictures was incredible. My husband and I get constant positive comments on the photos and we will treasure the captured memories for years

Hi there! I’m Amanda. A passionate photographer from Trumbull county, Ohio! My photography journey began back in my junior year of high school in 2015, and since then, I’ve developed a deep love for working with families and little kids to capture life’s greatest moments and biggest milestones. There’s something truly magical about freezing those special memories in time for my clients to cherish forever.

Amanda did our engagement and wedding photos. Both were amazing and such great quality. Amanda really puts her all into her clients. She helped with any and everything she could on our wedding day. She’s easy to get comfortable around and talk to. We will continue to book with Amanda for any and all future photos!!
