Hi, I'm Kayla! The laid back, adventure seeking, down for anything creative. Five years ago I was protecting my city as a police officer, and although playing cops and robbers is fun, I knew that something was missing. I quickly found that photography allowed me to express myself emotionally and creatively and I fell in love immediately. I took what I learned and moved across the country to Colorado and documented countless love stories in the mountains. My time spent in Colorado will always hold a place in my heart. My husband and I started our family there and we recently moved back home in Ohio raising two beautiful boys.

My husband and I have used Kayla for all of our photography needs multiple times over the past 4 years. Kayla has captured my husband’s surprise proposal, our engagement photos, wedding, and now maternity pics! We absolutely love working with her because she’s so friendly, easy-going and makes us feel extremely comfortable during our sessions. We never feel too posed, everything is authentic and she does a great job capturing our personalities through her photos. As far as quality, her work is incredible. We’ve been in multiple lighting situations, locations, and even on the beaches of Mexico and each time she knows exactly how to get the best shots. We’ve been so impressed with her work and could not recommend her enough!!

Hi, I’m Rekira, a photographer based in Northeast Ohio, with over 14 years of capturing love stories. My passion lies in documenting the most precious moments of my clients’ lives. Every wedding I photograph is a unique journey, and I feel incredibly privileged to be entrusted with such meaningful occasions—from intimate elopements to grand celebrations. Whether you’re planning a dream destination wedding or a beautiful celebration here in Ohio, I’m dedicated to bringing your vision to life, ensuring each moment is beautifully preserved for generations to come. Let’s create something extraordinary together, wherever your love takes us.

Working with Rekira is always an amazing experience! She has done multiple sessions for my husband and I and every single time I am blown away by the pictures she captures, her ability to make us feel comfortable (we are not naturally good at taking photos) and her professionalism. Her turn around time for getting our pictures back to us was so fast and the level of quality is unmatched. Everything we asked for she made happen and never once did I feel rushed or stressed out. Our wedding photos were so much better than we could have ever imagined. I highly recommend working with Rekira, she will exceed all of your expectations!

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.

Dani helped us with choosing our elopement location in Colorado! She listened to our must-haves for our location and provided us a list of options with info on permits and everything. She made the elopement process so easy! We picked our location off her advice :) We also had snow hit the day of our elopement and since it was just my husband & I plus the photographers, (Dani & Jed), she let us adjust our elopement time to get the best experience in the elements. They also followed my husband & I to our restaurant where we had dinner and took some amazing candid photos our first dinner as husband and wife. Such an incredible team and incredible experience. Hiring them was the best decision we made when we decided to elope!!

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.

Jovan made my dreams happen for my wedding. She understood exactly the vibe I wanted for the environment and for the pictures and took pride in curating that. She felt like more than photographer on my wedding day with the great attention to detail and dedication to protecting my peace, She felt like a friend. She picked up very well on social situations that shifted and pivoted when others weren't being as flexible. She was very swift on the turn around for the preview gallery and communicated any hiccups She had along the way until the full gallery was available. I would and will choose her again for any family and life event photos, hope she enjoyed shooting for us because it wont be the last shes seen of me. To say the least she played a massive role in making my wedding day memorable.

I’m a documentary-style wedding photographer with a true-to-color approach, focused on capturing real moments as they naturally unfold. 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, without turning the day into a production or pulling you out of the moment. 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
My husband and I got engaged in 2023 and had planned for our wedding to be in July of 2025. For two years one of our biggest challenges was finding a photographer that was in our budget, that would still provide us with the perfect product we had invisioned in our minds. We had searched high and low finding MANY photographers that will say they can adjust their packages to fit our budget, and still somehow come up with a total of 4000 dollars. Then we found Sam. I was hesitant at first because I wanted a specific style I hadn’t seen in her galleries, a more sultry- whimsical- cinematic/ dramatic candid feel. However when I brought that up to Sam she had reassured me that her range of editorial styles and shooting styles was very large as she’s been doing this for YEARS, and had sent me some separate more recent shots she had taken to prove that. We had talked very in detail for days about the hours ineeded from her, pricing, I also explained she would be traveling (which is never a problem for Sam. She loves traveling! ) and we had made a very well customized package trimmed to fit my hours and budget. In the end I received ALL the pictures taken edited exactly how we wanted them. On the wedding day Sam did an amazing job of helping, taking charge of things, and making sure all of our needs were met. I swear she was half wedding planner half photographer. If I needed people to do something she made it happen if I needed people to start getting ready for pictures-she was on it. Her time management is absolutely insane and such a blessing to have on your wedding day. She had some of the best ideas I’ve ever heard when it came to certain poses I wanted accomplished or specific visions I had. She was energetic, hilarious, and made sure everyone had the best time taking these pictures. I couldn’t recommend Sam enough. She truly is a photography wizard and will have all of your wedding day dreams come true.
