I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

Working with Portraits By Sean was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication style was professional, efficient, and genuinely kind throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly one-of-a-kind - their photos are gorgeous, superb, innovative, and incredibly detail-oriented and precise. The team of two photographers and a videographer was amazing, capturing so many special moments that will forever stay with us from our wedding day. We were especially grateful that they were able to capture our private final dance, which means the world to us. After our wedding, when our oldest son was leaving for bootcamp, Sean thoughtfully sent us additional photos that had been taken during the celebration, which are now cherished keepsakes for our family. I honestly can't say enough good things about our experience with Portraits By Sean - they exceeded our expectations in every way and we are thrilled with the beautiful memories they've preserved for us.

Their warmth and friendliness instantly put us at ease, making the entire experience feel effortless and fun. The calls before the wedding to go over details were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything ran smoothly on the big day. One thing that meant a lot to me was getting specific photos with certain family members and bridal party groups, and Joe and Ashley made that happen seamlessly. Being able to send them a list of must-have shots was such a relief, and they powered through it all while still keeping things fun and natural. Those photos will be cherished for a lifetime! And if you’re on the fence about video—DO IT. Having a beautifully edited video with sound clips woven in so perfectly brought our wedding day back to life in a way that photos alone just can’t. The way they captured every little moment, every emotion—it’s truly priceless. Joe and Ashley are not just incredibly talented at what they do, but they also make the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. If you’re looking for a photographer and videographer who genuinely care, are highly organized, and will capture your wedding day in the most perfect way possible, look no further.

I’ve always been passionate about capturing moments as authentically and magically as possible, and as i’ve settled more into this career path, I love that i’ve landed in a place where I have the privilege to capture and preserve people’s love stories. Weddings and elopements are so distinctly and uniquely human, and it’s truly the biggest honor to be trusted to document them.

Mae was an absolute pleasure to work with. I knew I liked her from the very first call. She was thorough and asked good questions to make sure she could capture what we wanted. I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

10/5 STARS A MUST BOOK ********** I simply don’t know if I can put into words how amazing of an experience we had using Eileen as our photographer. She captured our engagement photos and did such an amazing job I was so excited to see how the wedding photos came out - when I tell you she CRUSHED this entire gallery I have never been more serious. The sheer volume of photos is incredible but the meticulous attention to detail and care she took editing every single photo is truly mind blowing. I don’t even know where to begin posting these because I wish I could post every single one. Every time I look at these pictures I remember every emotion I felt on our wedding day and that’s a true blessing and a gift to be able to give people those feelings and relive their most special moments through your work. Eileen takes the time to get to know you on more than just a surface level, she has become a friend since I first reached out to book her and I truly cannot imagine having had anyone else capture our special moments. She is super responsive, thorough, listens to what YOU want and makes it happen, she’s kind and friendly and will make you feel relaxed and comfortable no matter the situation. You can trust her wholeheartedly with your photo needs. I’m not someone who usually likes to get pictures taken of me and I’m always hypercritical of myself in photos but I honestly looked forward to our sessions with Eileen and love every single photo she took. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone in need of a professional photographer. A 10/10 friend, an 11/10 photg, a 12/10 human being - she is a true gem all the way around. Book her now because she books up quick, I PROMISE you will never regret it!!

This is all a dream. In 2019 I bought a $50 camera off ebay just because. Almost immediately I won an award, started participating in galleries, and was published. After a few years of being encouraged by others, I made the decision to go full time. There's a lot of special moments when I photograph weddings and I get to be in best positions to see everything from every angle.

I’m a professionally trained photographer and a graduate of a professional photography program. I spent 10 years as a photojournalist covering news, sports, and political campaigns, learning to anticipate moments, stay calm under pressure, work fast in changing light, and capture real emotion without being obtrusive. That documentary foundation is what I bring to weddings. For 25 years, I’ve photographed weddings as a wedding photojournalist, focused on authentic moments, real interactions, and the in-between details. For portraits, I keep things artistic and natural with gentle direction, and family photos organized.

My wife and I used Roman Photography's services for our wedding in 2015 - we absolutely adore the the photos. Our fun and family were captured beautifully. We loved the work so much, we contacted Roman again ten years later to do our anniversary photos. Roman came out and did another magnificent job. He kept things playful and light (we're both uncomfortable in front of the camera) but still professional. I can't recommend Roman Photography enough!

Abbey was AMAZING! She did a great job at making my fiancé and I feel comfortable posing, as well as capturing those candid shots. I'm extremely pleased with the quality and amount of photos we received. She also kept me updated and responded quickly to my questions :)

From the moment we first reached out to Steel Halo Studio, their communication was clear, direct and to the point. The quality of their work and value was on-point, high quality, and perfect. They captured exactly what we were looking for, and we couldn't be happier with the photos that perfectly documented our special day. They had "sneak peaks" to us early the next day. Steel Halo Studio was a pleasure to work with, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

I was the student who had no idea what she wanted to do after High School. As my peers were applying to college with a clear career path in mind, I struggled to choose just one route. I could see myself in so many roles, and yet none of them fit JUST right. In 2011, my son was born and a new path appeared on my map: Motherhood. This role took over and nothing else mattered. The year progressed and my son grew, and grew and grew some more. I bought my first DSLR to document that rapidly growing boy of mine. It wasn't long before those peers from high school came to me to document their lives as well, and my career path was finally chosen.

I am so thankful we booked Jenna for our June 2021 wedding! We originally were looking for a Columbus based engagement photographer to take some pictures of us on OSU campus and were going to find a new photographer for our Cleveland wedding, but we fell in love with Jenna and booked her to travel with us! Jenna and Brett helped us feel comfortable in front of the camera and were a joy to work with all day. When we had to reschedule our 2020 wedding to 2021, they could not have been more understanding. I am absolutely obsessed with my photos and so are all my family and friends! Book Jenna for your wedding - you will not regret it!!

Hey there! We're Colleen and Amanda of Wild Embers Photography (formerly Rustic Light Photography). We are committed to ensuring you have the best experience ever that reflects your raw, unique, and wild love. We want to capture the wholly and unique YOU. We're your gals if you're into candid moments, raw emotion, and embracing spontaneity.

We could not be more happy with selecting Rustic Light photography for our wedding. Colleen and Amanda go above and beyond to capture beautiful pictures and ensure timing on the wedding day is going smoothly. My favorite part about these two is that they work as a team so you always get different angles and pictures. I wouldn’t change a thing using them for our engagement session, boudoir and wedding. By far my favorite vendors!!
