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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Eivan's photo and video services were very affordable and were a major reason why we went with them. I think the photos we received turned out very well and captured many of the amazing moments that we had at the wedding. The service we paid for only included one photographer and one videographer but they were both very attentive and made sure to be where the action was the entire day. Overall, the experience was positive and for a bride who was more focused on living through the experience of her wedding, Eivan's did a good job of handling the stuff you don't really want to think about.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,000

HELLO THERE! I'm so pumped you're here! I'm Kayla, a wedding photographer based in Ohio. I've always had a passion for being behind the camera—I held the camera, capturing all our old home videos. I love capturing life's sweetest moments, and hopefully, I can't wait to work with you!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was very unsure about getting video of our wedding, but reached out to Kayla at the recommendation of a friend. After a phone conversation, it was clear that videoing weddings was Kayla's passion and I knew we needed her to capture our big day! Kayla was great to work with leading up to our wedding- she was available when I had questions and flexible when I changed the plans ten different times. On our day, Kayla was prompt and worked great with our other vendors, especially our photographers. She even stayed late to make sure she caught the best moments of our dance floor and our sparkler exit. Just a few weeks later, Kayla sent us the most beautiful 10-minute video that I've been rewatching every day for the last four months. Kayla personally dropped off a wood engraved USB with our video on it too. I can't begin to say how highly I recommend Kayla and her beautiful videography skills!

Sophie was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She is so fun, funny, and real—just an absolute joy to be around on a day that can otherwise feel hectic. What really drew me to her was her background in the arts and the fact that she’s truly skilled in photography—not just someone with a camera, but a real artist. Her style is so refreshingly authentic; the photos aren’t overly edited or forced. Instead, she captured our day exactly as it felt—joyful, emotional, and real. Every photo tells a story, and flipping through them feels like being right back in those moments.

Melchy Hill Photography

Columbus, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $995

Columbus Ohio Wedding Photographer | Stress-Free Timeline Planning + Candid Storytelling I've always had a love of storytelling—it's why I fell in love with photography. When I'm not shooting weddings, you'll still find me behind my camera creating short films. My work has been featured at Gateway Theater for the 48 Hour Film Festival and Studio 35 for 3 Weeks of Terror. There's an incredible rush watching your film on the big screen and hearing the audience's reactions—I bring that same cinematic passion & energy to capturing your wedding day. I'm extremely passionate about what I do, and I hope you can see that when viewing my images.

Melchy provided exactly the wedding photography services we were looking for: minimalist, using natural light, and adaptable. She was very familiar with our venue of Franklin Park Conservatory, and was able to choose locations, times, and methods that made the entire process efficient not only for us, but all of our family members and wedding party members, as well. She was very understanding and accommodating of sensitive family dynamics and made the family wedding portraits run smoothly and easily. She was even able to change the location of the photos at the last minute to a different area that was both beautiful and cut down walking distance in order to accommodate family members who found walking difficult. Within the first few minutes of speaking with Mel, we felt like we had known her for years. And by the time our wedding actually rolled around, Mel felt more like a guest and friend than a vendor. She even sent us previews of our wedding photos within hours of our reception ending! Amazing. We were very pleased with our entire experience with Melchy and would gladly recommend her to all those looking for a professional, kind wedding photographer. You will be in excellent hands!

These are your first days of what you'll build a family & life around - - days of grandeur that you'll share with those you love most for decades to come. The stories you tell and the story that is yours is important. Marriage is worthy of celebration and deserves print. Nothing of what you're doing in preparation of this wedding will last longer than tangible documentation of it. It's a preservation of why you're doing what you're doing. Your first heirloom piece is here for you. You deserve it. Few things are more radical than joining your life with another person on paper- - it's a proposition of vulnerability and that is radical.

Brian does PHENOMENAL work. His attention to detail and artistic eye make for unique photo moments that you did know you needed. I’m so grateful to have had him as our wedding photographer!

We take photos you can feel, and that feel like you! We get to know YOU! We take care of you, first! You genuinely get to live and enjoy your day, the way you want to! Then, our photos get to bring you back to relive it! ALL the real moments, feelings, personalities, love, connection, energy! All the things that make you and your day truly yours, and worth remembering! You're way more interesting than some lifeless pose or stiffly staged moment! The real stuff will always be timeless!

Chris and Jess were absolutely incredible as our wedding photographers! From the moment we met them, we knew we were in excellent hands. They have such a natural talent for capturing not just the big moments, but all the little details and emotions that make each wedding unique. Our photos turned out better than we ever imagined. Chris and Jess somehow managed to be everywhere at once - capturing candid laughter during the ceremony, the tears of joy during our vows, and all the spontaneous moments throughout the reception that we might have otherwise missed. The quality of their work is outstanding, and you can tell they truly care about telling each couple's story through their lens. What impressed us most was how comfortable they made everyone feel. Our families and wedding party were completely at ease, which really shows in the natural, genuine expressions they captured. They worked seamlessly together as a team and were so professional throughout the entire process. These photos will be treasured memories for the rest of our lives, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. We wholeheartedly recommend Chris and Jess to anyone looking to capture their special moments - whether it's a wedding, engagement, or any other milestone worth celebrating. They don't just take photos; they create lasting memories that you'll cherish forever. Thank you, Chris and Jess, for helping us preserve the magic of our wedding day!

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

A little about me: When I'm not traveling the world with my camera, I’m at home in Columbus, Ohio, watching The Office, at the gym or playing video games. I’m a self-proclaimed plant geek, 100% extrovert, and a nerd who enjoys laughing loudly and making others laugh loudly, too (which usually means inappropriate jokes or meme references).

We could not be happier with Native Light's wedding photography! The incredible photos speak for themselves, but Caroline's kindness makes it worth writing a review. Caroline was talented, professional, efficient and such a joy to be around throughout the whole process. We look at our wedding photos frequently and we are immediately taken back to the emotions of each moment. Forever thankful!

I put my heart and soul into my work and want to provide you with the best pictures possible.

I also want you to have the best day ever so I work closely with you to ensure we make a schedule that's perfect and that we have SO much fun! More fun, less stress = amazing pictures.

We were absolutely thrilled with Asteria Photography for our wedding! Caroline was a dream to work with - her communication style was attentive, flexible, and dedicated every step of the way.

When we got our photos back, we were blown away - the images were simply stunning, with an ethereal and timeless quality that perfectly reflected the joy and magic of our wedding. Caroline has an incredible eye for composition and lighting, and a passion for her work that comes through in every shot. If you're looking for elite, top-notch wedding photography with images that will take your breath away, I can't recommend Asteria highly enough. Caroline felt like family by the end of our wedding day - that's how invested she was in making sure she preserved all our cherished memories. We'll treasure these photos forever!

I feel so lucky to have found these amazing people! Heather and her incredible team feel like family to us, even though we only met a few months ago. They really care about their clients and want them to have the best photos possible. During the wedding, Heather would always make sure I was comfortable by giving me flattering poses and pointing her portable fan at me when I was too hot from dancing at the reception, ha! She stayed in communication with me, the other vendors, and her own team flawlessly, so I didn't have to worry about a thing. Not only was everything organized and efficient, but it was also fun! Our whole wedding party had a great time making jokes and messing around with the photographers, and seeing them have fun made the whole vibe a lot better. They hyped us up in every pose and made the day nothing but positive. I would highly recommend Heather and her team to anyone who wants a photographer who cares about them! I felt like a million bucks on my wedding day, and I have to say it is mainly because of these incredible photographers. Finally, the results speak for themselves! The pictures we received literally look like they're out of a movie. Their talent is unmatched and should be talked about more. The feelings and emotions of our special day were captured in such a natural and beautiful way. I am so grateful to have these pictures for life, and I can't wait to show my kids one day. I will never be able to forget what it felt like, thanks to these incredible people with unreal talent. I also cannot believe how easy it was to book her and for such a reasonable price!

Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline.
