These photographers were absolute angels. From the engagement shoot to the wedding day, they went above and beyond. They kept me laughing even when I was stressed out about my hair!

Having Sydney as our wedding photographer was truly a gift. Her mind, creativity, vision, talent, and big heart will never cease to amaze me. Neither myself, my husband, or any of our friends or family have spent much time in front of a camera but Sydney made it feel like such a fun and natural process for all of us. She is such a kind hearted, charismatic, funny, personable person to have around and really did bring such an added light to our big day. From our first inquiry to the delivery of our photos, she was so on top of communication, took the time to understand our vision and what we were looking for and just made the whole process so simple and easy!! We will forever cherish our wedding photos and always be so glad that we chose Sydney as our photographer!

We will make sure you not only feel comfortable, but that you look good! We give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable.

Lacie and Tim are just the most amazing photographers (and people). They met up with us in Montana to shoot our elopement photos ahead of our shooting our wedding reception in Indiana. They are both so friendly and fun and Lacie has such great instincts. She and Tim surveyed glacier national park for great photo ops the day before we met. When we met some cloud cover in the park Lacie made a great call to pivot and get some amazing sunset photos on the lake which were stunning. While we drove around the park it felt like we hanging out with our good friends which made it all the more fun and the photos more authentic. Both Lacie and Tim were so helpful and kind, and our photos both in Montana and Indiana are everything I’ve ever wanted! Would hire/will hire them again and again!

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer.

Originally from Indiana, I'm now based in Manhattan, where I live with my wife, Rosalie, and our cat, Ramsay. I have a formal background in theater and have been immensely privileged to work and train all over the world.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Mary for our engagement photos and were absolutely thrilled with the results. She made us feel at ease right away, and we ended up with so many photos that looked (and felt!) so comfortable and so "us." There were no moments that felt awkward or posed, and she took the time to make sure we had captured many memories we'll cherish for a lifetime. We ended up getting married abroad, but if we had stayed local we would have been thrilled to work with Mary again for the big day itself. We can't recommend her highly enough!

I am a photographer (obviously) located in Northern Kentucky. I am an enneagram type two (wing six), which basically means I’m a hard worker and a giver. I’m sociable and ambitious, but also incredibly competitive and critical of myself. I truly adore my job and the incredible clients I get to work with. I love hearing your stories and doing my absolute best to capture them. For me, photography is about more than just pretty pictures — it’s about preserving that spark between you and your significant other.

Hannah at Winn's Lens was an amazing, understanding, and great listener throughout our wedding day. The quality of her work was outstanding, stunning, and exactly what we asked for. She truly brought our special day to life, not only capturing incredible photos from every angle, but also helping to wrangle our wedding party and making sure my dress and hair stayed in place. Hannah was fabulous at working with our family and friends, and she was the highlight of our day - we couldn't have imagined it without her.

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved Isaac and his wife, Jing, who photographed our wedding earlier this month. Isaac was super calm and collected and on top of everything. His photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking. He was very considerate when I first reached out about his work and wanted to use him and was very mindful of his travel fees to fit in our budget.

Please do yourself a favor and book her for your next special event! She was so thoughtful and made me feel at ease leading up to my wedding and on the day. Our wedding was captured even more beautifully than I thought possible. She’s funny and kind and very down to earth which makes her the perfect companion on what can be a stressful day. I can’t recommend her enough! She captured film photos (gorgeous), vintage video (so nostalgic and special), and insanely beautiful digitals.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing the right photographer is a big deal—truly one of the decisions that can make or break your entire experience. We met Nathan at the very beginning of our journey, during our engagement shoot at the Biltmore Estate. We were both nervous, awkward, and completely unsure of what to expect. Then Nathan arrived, and everything changed. Within minutes he had us laughing, relaxed, and genuinely enjoying ourselves. That was the moment we knew he wasn’t just talented—he was special. So when it came time to choose someone to capture our wedding in Sedona, we took a chance and asked if he would fly out. Honestly, we thought it was a long shot… but he immediately said yes. And thank goodness he did. I will never forget the moment he walked into the room on my wedding day. I had just started feeling that wave of nerves while finishing my hair, and the instant Nathan stepped in, I felt completely at ease. How does he do that? He has this quiet magic about him—an ability to ground you, hype you up, and disappear into the background all at once. His passion is infectious. His eye for intimate, meaningful moments is unreal. And somehow, while capturing every single one of those moments, he manages to remain practically invisible. When we received our gallery, we both laughed, cried, and sat there in awe. It felt like reliving the day, but through the lens of someone who truly understood us. To put it simply: Nathan is gifted. Exceptionally, unmistakably gifted. We even showed our engagement photos to another top-tier photographer, and her reaction was: “Book him immediately. His editing is some of the most incredible work I’ve seen—I want to talk to him myself!” If you're reading reviews trying to decide who to trust with your memories, stop here. You’ve found the one. Nathan exceeded every expectation we had—and then ten more we didn’t even know we should have. He is the best of the best.

The photographer had such a calm personality that everyone relaxed pretty quickly. We were laughing and joking around during the pictures, which made everything feel less formal.
