Joyfully capturing ALL your true colors. Hi, I'm Becca! I'm Northwest Ohio's joyful and vibrant photographer based in Ottawa, OH. My goal is for you to feel joy beaming off your photographs when you relive your special day. I'll capture every detail you spent so much time planning— from your venue decor, to your ring, to even your furry friends featured on your cake! The colors of your photographs will reflect real life— no weird filters or color casts, just YOU! In my free time I love celebrating each new milestone with my daughter, getting wrapped up in the next best anime series, or trying to be the next superstar in Mario Party.

From the moment we first reached out to Rebecca Maag Photo & Design, LLC, we were impressed by her transparent, easy, and quick communication style. The quality of her work is truly vibrant, professional, and creative - she captured the beauty and joy of our wedding day in a way that exceeded our expectations. Rebecca made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and we have continued to grow our relationship with her, using her services for our maternity photos, milestone photos, and family photos over the years. She is also very pet friendly - which was very important to us as our dogs are family. We cannot recommend Rebecca Maag Photo & Design highly enough for couples looking for a talented, reliable, and personable wedding photographer. She also created our wedding album (2 years after we were married) and the album is fantastic!

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Fort Recovery, OH

I'm Julia - a traveling wedding and elopement photographer based in Northwest Ohio. You deserve to have your story told in an organic way. The problem many of us face (myself included) is that so many of us find it difficult to step in front of a camera. One of my biggest passions is relieving people of that anxiety. I will get to know you for YOU, and then I'll capture it in a way that you won't even notice I have a camera in my hand. This will probably involve some craft beer, or (let's be honest), a shot of tequila. But, I'll also lead you through a series of prompts and guide you through every single step.

Working with Julia was the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she completely understood our vision and absolutely nailed the brief. On the wedding day, she was organized, thorough, and encouraging, which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She coordinated seamlessly with her second shooter and team, kept the shot list perfectly on track, and managed a very large group for posed pictures with ease and kindness. Julia curated a wedding gallery that truly reflects our style while adding her own artistic touch. The result is something unique and beautiful that feels entirely ours. We have never received so many compliments in our lives, every photo is a reminder of how special the day felt. Best of all, Julia worked quickly. She sent us preview pictures within 24 hours of the wedding, and she turned around the rest of the photos quickly too, taking only a few months to edit. She didn't compromise quality and everything is cohesive. Truly stunning! Her energy was warm, uplifting, and genuine throughout the process. We are endlessly grateful for the memories she captured, and we would work with her in every lifetime

Ashely and her team were awesome to work with! I only worked with them during the ceremony for V M wedding on June 14, 2025. Her team was kind and very respectful when plugging into my equipment to record audio for the client's ceremony video. Ashley's charisma and charm definitely helped her to maneuver and make all of the couples family move efficiently from what my team and I were able to see when breaking down!

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Awarded Best of Zola
Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.

I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Awarded Best of Zola
I don't even know where to begin - Dani is simply amazing and if it were possible to give her a 10 star rating, I would. She not only captured my husband and I's intimate mountain top elopement, but her and Jed also followed us through out the rest of the day and photographed our reception that we held with family and friends. We are usually pretty awkward in front of the camera, but they made us feel so comfortable (even at 5am in the morning lol) and our photos prove it. Dani puts so much work into finding the perfect elopement locations and the most flattering lighting. My husband and I are BEYOND ecstatic with how our photos turned out - she captured who we truly are and how much love we have for each other. I can never thank them enough for how much work they put into our elopement and reception day. We are so happy to have these memories forever.

Hi, I’m Jovan Kiah — a wedding and portrait photographer based just outside Indianapolis. I’m your personal hype woman, passionate about capturing vibrant, true-to-color moments that feel like you. From big milestones to everyday magic, I’m here to freeze time in a way that’s real, timeless, and joy-filled. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m soaking up motherhood, planning game nights, or enjoying something sweet—because life’s too short not to.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always so happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry or stress about photos. Day of the wedding she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She did a fantastic job of even catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.

I’m Sam, a wedding photographer known for thoughtful details, images that feel effortless, and a calm presence. I’ve been photographing weddings across the U.S. since 2011. Most couples tell me they’re not comfortable in front of the camera, and that’s completely normal. I’m experienced at guiding people just enough to feel at ease. Outside of weddings, I’m usually at home with my husband and our three kids, which has taught me a lot about patience, flexibility, and staying calm when plans inevitably change. Skills that turn out to be very useful on a wedding day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Sam captured our day so beautifully, and our sneak peek gallery absolutely took my breath away. Beyond her talent, she was such a joy to work with. As a plus-size bride who never feels confident in my own skin, Sam had my back every step of the way. She knew exactly how to capture the best angles, made sure I felt comfortable, and was mindful of areas I didn’t want accentuated. I’m not someone who usually loves full-body photos, but Sam made me feel genuinely beautiful and confident on my wedding day. That alone means more than I can put into words. Hire her, you WONT be sorry! 3

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients.

Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

This is your permission slip to be unapologetically yourself on your day. Let the deep belly laughs, worst dance moves, and shameless joy be out on display. You only get married once - you sure as heck better make it weird, memorable, and uniquely yours. You deserve someone who is just as emotionally invested in your day as you are (or, you know, as close as someone else could get). Someone who cares enough to capture all the big moments, but the smaller ones in between too. If you want a supportive bestie as your wedding photographer, let's get to know each other more. Send me a message to learn more about what I offer!
