The quality of their work was good - they captured so many fun candids and beautiful outdoor shots that really highlighted the unique elements of our celebration. They perfectly captured a surprise horse and carriage ride, as well as special details like the dried leaves from our flower girl, maple helicopter seeds, and the groom playing on a seven-piece drum set. Rachel was lovely to work with and went the extra mile to ensure we were satisfied with the final photos from our wedding.

What started as a spontaneous purchase in 2019—a $50 camera from eBay—turned into a dream I now get to live every day. Not long after picking up that camera, I won an award, showed work in galleries, and was published. With years of encouragement from others, I eventually made the leap to full-time photography—and I’ve never looked back. Weddings are where everything I love about photography comes together. I get to witness and capture the best moments from every angle—those quick glances, bursts of laughter, and quiet emotions that pass in a heartbeat.

“Photos By Michael U was a fantastic wedding photographer to work with. Their communication was always professional and they responded swiftly to any questions or requests. The quality of their work was extremely high, showcasing their talent and unique style. They produced amazing, show-stopping photography that captured the highlights of our special day perfectly. This photographer was incredibly reliable and professional throughout the entire process.

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.

“Glassburn Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our engagement photos. Their communication style was receptive, fast, and expressive, which put us at ease throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was inspiring, compassionate, and supportive - they had poses ready for us to try and were incredibly patient as we got comfortable in front of the camera. Glassburn Photography is one of those businesses where they truly listen, support, and deliver in every aspect of your special day. They did a fantastic job helping us choose the perfect location for our engagement photos, and the final results were outstanding. I would highly recommend Glassburn Photography to anyone looking for a natural, personal touch to their wedding photography. I can't wait to work with them again on my own wedding day!”

As a documentary-style photographer, I truly believe that the essence of life is captured in the unscripted, candid moments that often go unnoticed-- Each click of my camera is more than just a snapshot; it’s an opportunity to freeze time and preserve the love, joy, and uniqueness of your moments for generations to come.

“Where to begin?! Anna made my wedding day MAGICAL! Our photos felt like actual works of art, yet somehow were captured in such a natural way. She was the one decision I made as far as vendors go that I actually felt peace with. I had zero doubts she would make mine and my husbands day so special, and she truly did. I feel like I'm transported back into time every time I look at our photos!”

“Cat is a wonderful photographer and amazing to work with! From the start, where we explained our laissez faire and non traditional vision, Cat was totally open and supportive, and answered our many questions. It may have been their website and portfolio that initially drew us to Cat, but their attitude and kindness sealed the deal! Throughout the wedding and after, many of our guests made a point to let us know how much they really liked Cat-how professional she was, but how she also put everyone at ease with their friendly demeanor and unique perspectives. The end result was a GORGEOUS album with many more photos than we expected, each one capturing an amazing detail of our special day. The candids of our friends and family especially were important to us, as we could see more angles and moments. We can’t thank Cat enough for their partnership, creativity, commitment, and professionalism. She is a photographer we would recommend to anyone looking for someone to capture the intimacy of their ceremony and details of the outdoors.”
