Awarded Best of Zola
From the very first moment we stepped in front of Cheleana's camera, we felt like we were friends—her warm and welcoming spirit made us instantly comfortable. Over the years, we have shared nearly every significant life event with her, and we can't imagine our lives without our annual sessions! Cheleana always goes WAY above and beyond to capture the perfect shot, guiding us effortlessly throughout the process. It's like magic; you don't even realize it's happening! With her easy chit-chat and infectious laughter, every session feels like a joyous reunion. What stands out the most about our experience with Cheleana is her genuine heart and love for photography and people. Every time we work with her, it feels like we are her only and favorite clients. Nothing about our sessions feels fake or repetitive; it’s truly special. The artistry in her photos is astounding—it's hard to believe a magazine hasn’t snatched her up yet! Each image is infused with emotion, making them feel like art. The editing is tastefully done, allowing us to feel elevated and confident while remaining 1000% ourselves. Her candid shots are my absolute favorite; many of the photos she’s taken of my husband and me, as our family has grown, have brought me to tears. She has given me the priceless gift of slowing down time and cherishing this beautiful life! She is worth Every. Single. Penny!!! Working with Cheleana is an absolute delight. Her fun-loving and laid-back personality makes everything incredibly smooth and comfortable, even when working with little ones and occasionally reluctant husbands! She always has a great joke ready and a treat in her pocket—I'll let you figure out which one is for whom! :p Plus, she goes the extra mile by asking ahead of time if it's okay to give something to the little ones, which shows her thoughtfulness and professionalism. Honestly, we have witnessed her handle every situation over the years with extreme grace and professionalism—whether it was battling the heat on our wedding day while super pregnant or navigating crazy weather, or finding the perfect spot for our photos. There’s absolutely no room for improvement in our eyes; we just hope she never leaves us! Cheleana has truly become a part of our family, and we look forward to many more years of capturing memories together. Thank you, Cheleana, for everything you do! If you’re thinking of booking…. DO IT!! Trust me!!!! She will make you feel like you had the wedding of the century and you’ll want to stare at the pictures on your walls for decades!!!

Hi! It's nice to meet you. I would shake your hand, but I'm more of a fist-bump type of gal. 😃 I have worked full-time as a math and special education teacher for over 20 years, and nearing my 40's, decided to pursue photography since it has been a life-long interest of mine. In 2019, I completed a digital photography degree and while it originally started as a hobby, my work gained a following so I decided to make things official in 2020. Over the past couple of years, my focus has been on photographing families in addition to couples in love. Getting a couple who's madly in love in front of your camera is pure magic!

My husband and I decided to renew our vows after 25 years of marriage. We hired Sarah to photograph the ceremony plus some of the after-party. I wasn’t sure how cooperative my 3 teen/young-adult sons were going to be, but Sarah is a natural at connecting with kids. We ended up having so much fun! Her photos perfectly captured our family. We couldn’t be happier with how our pictures turned out. Thanks, Sarah!

She takes a vision and makes it not only a reality, but curates something that is unique to the buyer & the moment. Most recently Sarah made my wedding bouquet, boutonnieres and my maid/matron’s bouquets. They were perfect. All I did was show her a few photos from Pinterest and she brought my vision to life. It turned out EXACTLY how I had imagined it. I can’t say enough nice things about Sarah. She is incredible. Hire her. You won’t regret it. Photos by: Vintage Bound

Samantha Lee Photography was absolutely incredible to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was extremely fast and detailed, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of, Samantha's positive attitude and fantastic time management skills were a huge asset - she got all of my groomsmen, who usually hate having their pictures taken, to smile and feel comfortable. I never felt rushed, and Samantha made sure to capture every photo I had imagined. At the end of the night, when her time was technically up, she noticed me dancing with my dad (who I don't have the best relationship with) and pulled her camera back out to capture that special moment. It meant so much to me, and is just one example of how Samantha went above and beyond. I will forever recommend Samantha Lee Photography to anyone looking for an amazing wedding photographer.

We were truly blown away by our experience with FWB. We had the best wedding day, and the venue & service were such a big factor in that. Both Robin & Riley were phenomenal to work with- so patient, quick to respond and always answered the many questions we had. We loved doing the food tasting ahead of the wedding as well as the wine/beer tasting. Riley was there to walk us through the rehearsal the night before and was amazing on the wedding day to coordinate the ceremony and schedule throughout the night. I really appreciated how she checked in with us to make sure we weren’t overwhelmed and made sure that when we did take a minute to take a breath, there was food and drinks in the suite for us. We really loved being able to have the bridal suites for the day- it was awesome. The service for the reception was phenomenal. Staff always ensured we had full plates & drinks so that we could focus on interacting with guests. We cannot overstate how much we love FWB’s food. Not only at the wedding and throughout the tastings, but we had so many guests comment on how amazing all the food was. I highly recommend the rosemary pork and the chicken marsala. The mushroom ravioli was a fan favorite and we heard comments about it all night. Since the wedding we have visited FWB multiple times just to eat there because the food is that good. The coordination of the entire day was seriously flawless and took so much stress off our shoulders. We were able to focus on having fun while they ensured things were set-up, running on time and later taken down without us having to lift a finger (except for our own decor that we brought!). If you’re thinking about choosing FWB for your big day- do it! We had such a great experience and can’t stop talking about it.

Cassandra helped us choose the best moves to learn for our skill level that would fit our music choice... complete with spins, dips, and even a stunt ending! She even made us feel confident that our music choice and dance style was a great fit and not silly... (We danced salsa to Kraftwerk's Computer Love).

Sarah is so incredibly talented. She remains very professional but is extremely personable, which makes it easy to capture all our favorite moments. I’ve used Sarah for ALL my photography needs (Engagement, wedding, maternity, newborn) and plan to be a life long client of hers because she’s just that amazing!

We had the pleasure of working with I Need Henna Art Company for our wedding festivities. They were incredibly helpful in assisting us with planning, coordinating, and decorating for our mehndi and nikkah ceremonies. Throughout the process, they were very patient and provided guidance. They listened to our ideas and offered great suggestions. They were very resourceful. They were organized and ensured everything ran smoothly.

Jasmine at JSPhotos did an amazing job capturing our wedding day. From the very beginning, she was responsive, professional, and truly listened to what my husband and I were looking for. On the day of our wedding, Jasmine was a calming presence and made the photo process smooth and efficient. The photos she delivered exceeded all of our expectations - they are stunning and truly captured the joy and love of our special day. The value for the quality of work we received was exceptional. We could not be happier with JSPhotos and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented and dedicated wedding photographer.

We cannot speak highly enough of Jeremy and Cinescope Video! Not only did he travel a long ways to us for our wedding (3 states over from his home base!), he was very easy to communicate with, captured our day in such a beautiful and elegant way and our film was MUCH longer & better quality than lots of our friends who had gotten married in the last few years. You can't go wrong with picking Cinescope Video for your videography needs. We can't thank you enough, Jeremy, for the masterpiece you provided us to remember our perfect day!

The Graham Banquet Center was a beautiful venue for our wedding reception. Their staff was prompt and professional in all of our communications leading up to the big day, which we really appreciated during the hectic planning process. On the wedding day itself, the venue space was clean and lovely - the perfect backdrop for our celebrations. The team was there helping us from the very start of the event until the end, ready to accommodate any needs or requests we had. They were truly invested in making our day go smoothly.
