My name is Comfort and I am a Columbus based photographer who loves photographing real people being themselves! My style is authentic, vibrant and fun, and I pride myself in my ability to capture the spirit of every person and event that I photograph. The comment I hear most from my couples is that I am a calming presence on their wedding day and that my name is very fitting. Helping your wedding day run smoothly is just as important to me as capturing beautiful photographs for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Comfort is the best photographer we could've ever asked for. 5 out of 5 stars isn't enough. From the day we booked her it was truly a joy every step of the way. We dealt with numerous vendors and the best part about working with Comfort is how personable she was. It never felt uncomfortable or awkward and we looked forward to every interaction. As a person who doesn't love planned photo's she made it EASY and natural. Just allowed us to be ourselves and the photos are better than we ever imagined. On our big day she helped things run so smoothly to the point where it all felt perfect. I was highly stressed that we would be pulled in so many directions that it would be hard to balance BUT Comfort came with a plan and by the end of the night we didn't have 1 hiccup or issue. I Couldn't recommend Comfort Photography more. If we ever have the need for a photographer again we know exactly who we will be booking. Looking forward to that day.

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.

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 did a fantastic job with our wedding photos. From the start she was friendly, communicative and reliable. She knew our venue extremely well and had a great eye for where family portraits and first look could go. She deftly handled family dynamics, efficiently got everyone through portraits and took amazing pictures. You’re in excellent hands if you get to work with her! Thanks Melchy! We appreciate you!

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!

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!

She was thorough with all of her questions, and made sure that we were all on the same understanding of how her process worked. During our engagement photos, she made us feel comfortable, and we could be our goofy selves, which made the photos feel so much more real, rather than posed. She is a natural and would make anyone feel beautiful/handsome! Our wedding photos still make me tear up! They are so beautiful, and she and her sister did the most amazing job!

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! Booking Heather and her team was truly the best decision we could have made. I recommend them to anyone from all walks of life. You will be welcomed and taken care of like a friend or even family!

I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. 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. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!
