Portraits By Sean 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Cincinnati, OH



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

My husband and I were from out of town and hired Sean to photograph us at a Christmas gala at the place we got married. He was accommodating to last minute changes to make the most of the session and even went above and beyond to make it happen. Upon first impression, he was upbeat and had a vision. We were outside in sub 30 degree weather with fading evening light as well as low light inside a building and he was up for the challenge. We ended up with beautiful images in less than ideal conditions and that is what makes a great photographer. Sean has a sense of humor and an eye for that perfect photograph. He was fun to work with and his heart for people and creativity shows through. Thank you Sean for capturing this time in our lives.

Sound Originals Photo & Video 

4.9

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Cincinnati, OH

Sound Originals Photo & Video is a team of EMMY award winning storytellers. Our photography and videography packages are tailored to you, customizable and perfect for every wedding. We offer engagement photography, wedding photos, highlight films, wedding coverage and more.

Awarded Best of Zola
We initially went with Sound Originals out of cost consideration and ease of booking because their combined photo/video package seemed so much more cost effective than many of the quotes we were getting from individual photographers and videographers. We assumed therefore that the quality might be a bit diminished by comparison, but were quite pleasantly surprised to discover that this was not the case! We are beyond pleased with the coverage they provided of our wedding and reception, and would certainly recommend Sound Originals to anyone seeking photo/video of their big day. Our team on the day of the wedding were absolute rock stars. Kate, Trung, and Travis all were incredibly friendly and helpful, and went above and beyond in ensuring we had excellent photos and video--both candids and plandids. We're so grateful to each of them for their excellent work! If you're considering booking Sound Originals, there is one practical consideration we might offer, however: Their business model seems streamlined to provide a standardized product and level of quality to many clients at once by contracting with local photographers and videographers--this is great for ensuring that clients know what to expect visually and that the company has backup photographers ready in case any members of the assigned team can't make it, but this also seems to come at the cost of personal touch when communicating with the company and the photo/video team. Our communications with them were always through a portal on their website and often felt rather impersonal. This was a trade off we were perfectly fine with, given the very affordable price we paid for our package and the piece of mind in knowing that even if our lead photographer got sick or something, someone else would be there to fill in. If you, however, require a high level of customization or personal touch and want to cultivate a close relationship with your photographer, then you may want to hire a photographer/team directly.

Working with Images By Daniel Michael was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Dan and his team have an open and matter-of-fact communication style put us at ease throughout the planning process. Their professional, authentic, and genuine approach to photography resulted in breathtaking shots that captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Dan and his crew were able to wrangle in our huge bridal party without bringing the mood down, and he was willing to jump in and do whatever we asked, even if it wasn't originally planned. Dan brought a sense of stability to the day, and his positive disposition really helped keep my spirits up throughout that incredibly long day as well. His work is second to none, and there was no stress or sales pressure to sign with him, which I greatly appreciated. I cannot recommend Images By Daniel Michael highly enough.

Right Here Photography 

5.0

Cincinnati, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

For over 14 years, I’ve been one of the lucky ones who gets to have my passion also be my profession. Under the big skies of Wichita, Kansas, where I was born and raised, I bought my first DSLR camera in 2008 and was hooked for life. Then I landed a job with a national portrait studio and was suddenly getting paid to do what I loved. My love for the craft took me to several cities as a regional manager, and eventually landed me here in Cincinnati. Though I moved on from that job, Cincinnati sunk its claws into me for good. I, my wife Katie, and our four (or more depending on when you ask) beloved cats now call the Queen City home.

We hit the jackpot with Jason as the photographer for our wedding in Cincinnati, OH (via Wedding Bug). He was beyond spectacular- Calling the week before exactly when planned to iron out details, ensure we were all on the same page, and was already so nice to work with and clearly wanted to capture our special day precisely how we wanted. Unsurprisingly, he arrived promptly day-of and went ABOVE & BEYOND- Maneuvering into any needed position to get the best shot, making goofy faces for our kids to smile, kindly getting unruly groups’ attention to look at the camera, keeping checklists of group photos, and being chill to roll with whatever we asked while remaining extremely efficient to quickly get the right equipment for various types of lighting/ locations. He even risked some incredible shots in the middle of a busy street for us! This is who you want. We truly can’t say enough amazing things about this awesome, kind, professional, talented man :)

My passion for photography likely stems from my ability to capture moments that evoke emotion and tell stories!

I’m not the type to want my pictures taken but she made me feel so beautiful the entire day. And the pictures breathe taking. And my favorite she gets them back to your in a timely manner. She will be the only one taking our family photos for now on.

Sophie Seay Photography

Cincinnati, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,500

Hi!! Im Sophie and I’ve pretty much had a camera in my hand since I was 12 years old. I’ve always been obsessed with the “aesthetic” and romanticizing every moment possible. Being able to pause the present moment, and create art that will last a lifetime…. That feels like magic to me! I strive to create images that feel like a movie, images that tell your unique love story. My mission is not only to capture the special moments, but everything in between. The laughs and the love… the tears and the makeup mess of getting ready. All of the authentic beauty of your wedding day that you will be able to look back on forever.

Sophie Seay Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding day. From our first interaction, Sophie was a responsive, professional, and personable communicator who provided us with extremely informative guidance. The quality of her work is simply outstanding - she delivered high-quality, customized photos that captured our day with confidence and creativity. Sophie made me feel completely at ease in front of the camera, allowing me to be myself and creating the best memories for us to look back on. She truly helped bring out a vibrant, passionate side of me that I had forgotten existed. We are thrilled with the end result and couldn't recommend Sophie Seay Photography more highly.

Hi there! I'm so glad you found me on this little corner of the internet. My name is Taylor, and I'm a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Cincinnati, Ohio. But I do love to travel and will go anywhere! I'm your golden sun, chasing love, wine night having, pizza eating, dog loving, crazy mess behind the camera. I started this journey of mine in 2019, and fell in love with the ability to tell someone's story in photos. I strive to tell your story in these memories, by putting my full heart into it each time. So when you look at them you are brought right back to that moment in the years to come.

Taylor is not only an incredible photographer, but an incredible person! From the very first time i spoke to Taylor on the phone, we instantly clicked. She immediately met all of my needs and expectations that I had for my engagement and wedding photos. She was also willing to do anything to make us happy. Not only was she our photographer, but worked actively as a “day of coordinator”. She spent the entire day helping me relieve stress, and serve as my personal hype woman. I seriously could not picture our special day without Taylor in it. Not only did we love her, but our bridal party loved her as well. Her work is incredible and you will not regret booking with her!

Annie and Mike were absolutely wonderful to work with! We had multiple calls leading up to the big day to discuss the details and all the shots we wanted. We ended up having to make the decision to fast forward our wedding 4 months due to Covid, and Annie was so easy to work with and accommodating of our needs! I would definitely recommend them, and we actually did recommend them to some of our close friends who also had to rearrange their wedding due to Covid. They booked Annie and Mike and it was great to see them at their ceremony as well!

Marissa Belle Photography

Cincinnati, OH
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $6,000

I'm a Midwest-based film wedding photographer, although my work often takes me from the east to west coast, and sometimes the world. Being an artist is something I knew I wanted to be from the time I was teeny tiny, and I truly cherish every chance I get to tell someone else’s story and grow in my creativity. I love being able to create and preserve memories for my clients, and turn those moments and memories into pieces of art.

My husband and I planned/paid for our whole wedding ourselves and I can honestly say Marissa’s photography was so worth the investment! Not only is she so sweet but she has great attention to detail, and overall easy to work with! It was really hard looking for a photographer for our wedding since it can be hard to trust someone with your vision but Marissa’s photography exceeded out expectations. Her style is so fresh, beautiful, and timeless! I truly think she is one of the BEST photographers in Cincinnati/Dayton area! Please don’t miss out on her work!! She is a true gem and I am so glad we trusted her to take care of our special day!

The Smyth Collective

Cincinnati, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,600

When we got married in 2007, our only regret is that we didn’t hire a wedding photographer. We had a few friends bring their cameras and thought that would be good enough. Our photos are fine, they are enough to help us remember what happened, but they don’t fully capture US. What we have isn’t quite wall-worthy, except that’s all we’ve got. We want more for you! You want to love your story, to love your photos and appreciate them years from now when you’re sharing stories with your grandkids gathered around. You will want your memories hung forever where you can see them to remember your beautiful day!

Daniel has captured a ton of real proposals/engagements for my clients, as well as weddings and does a great job. His attention to details is perfect and he is a very skilled photographer. Styling is more bold and colorful, not moody or light/airy. Daniel delivers very full and detailed galleries very quickly compared to industry standards. The Smyths are so nice and caring and are great people to work with.

I feel so honored to be a part of the most memorable moments in so many people’s lives. My desire as an artist is to create photos that are full of life and meaning and express beauty in an honest way. For this reason, I choose to photograph your wedding in an organic nature mixing film and digital photography. My career in the arts started in a more traditional setting, studying painting and drawing and I went on to graduate with a degree in Visual Communication. I do love all the mediums I’ve studied, but my true passion is photography. I have now worked as a photographer since 2010 and I am so blessed to be doing what I love.

Brittany is an amazing photographer! I have worked with her both personally for my own photos, as well as professionally as a wedding planner. Being someone who doesn't love being in front of the camera, Brittany does a great job making you feel comfortable and keeps her sessions light and fun! Her style is very natural and timeless and she creates photos you'll love looking back on for years to come. She does an amazing job keeping to the timeline on the wedding day, and is very communicative throughout the entire planning process. I would highly recommend Brittany to any couple looking for a photographer for their wedding day!

Good Story Co

Cincinnati, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

We believe that there is much more to a wedding than pretty pictures and decorations. Don’t get us wrong, we love to take beautiful photographs, but we long to do more than that, we search for moments that will stand the test of time. It's the people there who have loved you through the years watching as you commit to loving another, it's the way you look at each other during those in between moments, it's dancing the night away because you are so freaking happy, it's your vows, it's your grandparents watching on in love, its' all of that and so much more. We will search for those moments and capture them for you to relive forever and ever.

Good Story Co were the absolute best photographers we could have asked to capture our engagement and wedding photos. The quality of their work speaks for itself. Dave and Stephanie are personable while remaining professional and are incredibly easy to work with. Their focus is on client connection and capturing the moments you desire. They will make you feel comfortable in every situation. We would recommend Good Story Co to anyone looking for engagement photographers and/or wedding photographers.

Your love story is uniquely yours. While it began the day your paths crossed, one of the best chapters is about to be penned - your marriage. This new and exciting part of your story begins on your wedding day. Shelby Street Studios has been capturing award-winning wedding stories in the Cincinnati area and beyond since 2009. We can’t wait to tell yours.

We couldn’t have asked for a more incredible wedding photographer than Rachel! From our very first meeting with her she went above and beyond to make sure our big day was captured perfectly. Rachel’s professionalism, organization and attention to detail really stood out to us. She took the time to get to know us as a couple, understanding our vision and preferences. She was familiar with our venue (hotel Covington) offered creative ideas for unique shots, and always made us, our wedding party, and our guests feel comfortable in front of the camera. On the wedding day, they seamlessly blended into the event, capturing both the big, emotional moments and the small, candid ones that we’ll cherish forever. Whether it was their ability to direct us gently during portraits or their knack for catching guests laughing and celebrating, every photo felt like a piece of art. The final images were breathtaking and full of emotion. She somehow managed to make every single shot feel magical. Beyond their technical skills, their warmth and genuine enthusiasm for their craft made the entire experience even more special. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your wedding day with as much care as you do, look no further. Rachel is a true talent, and we are so grateful to have had her (and her second shooters) as part of our celebration. Highly recommend!

Kati Best Photography

  • Starts at $3,500

Searching for the perfect third wheel? FINDING A PHOTOGRAPHER TO CAPTURE YOUR RELATIONSHIP CAN FEEL LIKE HIGH STAKES. After all, this is the person who will be with you during some of your most intimate moments and the person who you are trusting to capture the fleeting but magical chaos of your special day. Take a deep breath and relax because you’re in the right place. I’ve been photographing weddings for almost ten years and have seen it all: from the traditional to the quirky, from the backyard BBQ to the international elopements, to the simple courthouse shindig on a Tuesday.

Kati is literally the best, she is so so fun and easy to get along with (my bridesmaids were all best friends with her by the end of the night) and obviously so talented. We are so happy with our pictures and we don't even have them all back yet! Speaking of I know people who got literally zero pics from their wedding photographer for 6 weeks after the wedding, I had about 10-15 pre-preview pictures less than 3 hours after she left my ceremony. I had about 100 preview pictures by 1 week from the wedding. I really appreciate how speedy she is getting your photos to you. We had all of our engagement pictures back by 2 weeks after the shoot. Cost wise I feel she is worth every penny we paid. She captured the day perfectly, worked well with all our vendors, and I can't thank her enough! Kati will be capturing all of our important life events moving forward.

Wedding Photography by Tammy Bryan

Cincinnati, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,800

My life in wedding photography started as an apprentice to a master photographer lugging equipment, loading countless rolls of film, and driving all over Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky for two years. I learned a lot during that period of my life and found myself looking forward to Fridays and Saturdays; not for the weekend off, but the next wedding! More than 1000 weddings later, I still believe the best wedding pictures are real moments, photographed in the most beautiful way possible. My photographs are complex, yet simple. They are romantic. Timeless. Authentic. And FUN!

Tammy has officially won best photographer ever in my book. Tammy and her husband are a dream team!! Our photos turned out so beautiful! I'm so glad that my husband and I selected Tammy to be our wedding photographer. She shot our engagement and wedding day. Our guests were so complimentary about how great she was at our wedding and how beautiful our photos turned out. I would re-hire her again in a heartbeat. I really struggled to find good recommendations on a photographer in Cincinnati. Most people told me who NOT to use. I found Tammy Bryan Wedding Photography and couldn't be happier!
