Tessa N. Brediger Photography 
Rating: 5.0 (4 reviews)
Dayton, OH
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,300

I’m Tessa Brediger! I’m twenty-nine, living in Dayton, Ohio at the moment (but always moving thanks to the Air Force), married to my best friend Jake, a mom to the sweetest little boy named Will, and I’m a lover of: a good and smoky single malt Highland scotch, beautiful light, inclusivity, and punk rock (I never moved past my emo phase in high school). I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like. I don’t believe there’s a limit to the amount of pasta you can consume. I quote New Girl and The Good Place way too much. I have a lot of houseplants and always get sucked into buying more because I have no impulse control. I absolutely love, love.

Tessa blew our expectations out of the water! She was an absolute gem on our wedding day! You can tell that photography for Tessa is so much more than a job. She is truly invested in each couple and wants your wedding to day to be everything you wished and more! Tessa was a great planner/communicator before the wedding day. She had a great questionairre that helped us plan the photos we wanted on the day. She was extremely fast to edit our photos! I think we received them one week after our wedding! She also created a montage video of all of our pictures which was the perfect way to show all of our friends and families our wedding photos! I was so impressed with her work. Especially our reception pictures were the best I've probably ever seen (reception photos I feel like are the most difficult to capture but she nailed it!) Our portraits were stunning! The small moments that meant the world to us, she captured. I love Tessa's style and creativity. She is incredibly talented and was amazing to work with! Highly recommended!

The Daydreamer Diaries 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Dayton, OH

I’m a hardcore believer in documenting and capturing memories in their most authentic form, as you would write about in your diary in words to remember forever. Your life is worthy of being captured with absolute authenticity and boldness. Your existence is timeless, yet so completely unique. Humans are complex and incredible, and my craft is driven by the deep love of the human experience.

I can’t put into words how incredible our experience with Katie was. We knew she would deliver beautiful images after seeing her portfolio, but from our first interaction with her it was clear she goes above and beyond in every interaction. She was amazing to work with. She knew how to navigate working with EVERYONE and she made the entire process a breeze. My pictures from that day are worth their weight in gold and I have never seen a photographer articulate people and their stories the same way Katie does. I cannot recommend her enough. She has a beautiful soul and it shows.

She did such a stunning job with our engagement and wedding photos, we have received so many compliments on them! She got so many beautiful candids too.

Joe and Ashley are the best photography team out there!!! We chose them as our wedding photographers, and it was the best decision I've ever made. From start to finish, they made the process so easy - with phone calls to discuss details and answer ALL of my questions, super fast responses over email, and then seamless photo-taking on the day of! They were so fun to be around too, and made everyone feel at ease - even my now-husband, who doesn't love getting his picture taken. The photos themselves are to DIE for - we received the sneak peek on Thursday (our wedding was Sunday 5/24), and I was FLOORED. They turned out even better than I imagined, and all of our family and friends have been raving about them. We're so excited for the full gallery, which I know will be just as amazing as the preview!

We met with Julia for the first time at a wedding show hosted by Rhinegeist Brewery. By the next morning she had already reached out to us and we started planning a date to meet to discuss wedding photography! She is absolutely fantastic and really made me feel comfortable with her during our initial meeting by taking time to answer any question I had, and helping explain her process to me. The first time I got to witness her in action was during my proposal. My fiancé reached out to her and she helped him plan a lot of it, which I was so grateful for! She has such a unique and mesmerizing artistic vision which I absolutely loved in my proposal. The pictures turned out even better than I could’ve imagined!! I’m awkward in front of a camera but I felt like I was able to be myself while she was there. Our Super 8 video made me cry when I saw it for the first time, it was everything I could’ve wanted and more! You can tell she really takes pride in what she does, and she’s the best at it!! I can’t wait for our engagement session and wedding. I know she’s going to do an absolutely incredible job!

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 was a fantastic wedding photographer to work with. Their communication was always professional and they responded swiftly to any questions or requests. The quality of their work was extremely high, showcasing their talent and unique style. They produced amazing, show-stopping photography that captured the highlights of our special day perfectly. This photographer was incredibly reliable and professional throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Photos By Michael U to any couple looking for a talented wedding photographer who delivers beautiful, one-of-a-kind results.

Being the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I saw how precious photos become in life. Some photos are the only tangible connection we have to a person or place that is dearly missed. Thanks to my dad, I was introduced to the world of photography the same day I was introduced to the world. Because of my parents, our memories growing up are preserved. When I was 6, I received my own camera, marking the beginning of a lifelong dedication to documenting every aspect of my life.

Nicole was a dream to work with! From the second she stepped foot on our property, she was friendly, inviting, eager to her thing! She was so kind and professional the whole time. We absolutely loved having her work with us and she also takes amazing photos! We can’t wait to see her back at the farm and get to work with her again! Thank you for being one of the sweetest people we ever met Nicole! Please come back soon!

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
