  • Serves Toledo, OH



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

My partner and I hired Sean for our engagement photos and we were extremely impressed! He was super helpful in helping us pose and very skilled in the ways he used lighting to capture our best features. He captured really genuine moments with such skill. He also made sure the job was well done and he got all the photos that we could have wanted. We had a blast working with him! The photos are stunning and I genuinely can’t stop looking at them! My partner and I tend to feel awkward getting our picture taken but Sean created such a comfortable space for us. We would highly recommend booking Sean.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,600

Hey, I’m Savannah! I’ve been photographing weddings since 2016, and somewhere along the way, it became the love of my life (well, one of them). I’m all about honest storytelling—documenting the real stuff, the in-between moments, the things you didn’t even realize were happening. My style is documentary with a creative edge, and my approach is simple: get to know you, show up with intention, and create photos that feel like you. If you’re into big feelings, warm tones, and someone who will hype you up while also fixing your flyaways, we’ll get along just fine.

Awarded Best of Zola
There’s truly no better photographer to shoot your wedding or engagement photos. Savannah has a special vision when it’s comes to making your dream photos a reality. From scouting locations, to coordinating photos, to posing, and more she’s such a valuable resource to have for the most important part of your wedding.

We’re just a few midwest kids who love pursuing lots of fun hobbies and having a good time. On any given day, you could find us reading a book, watching our favorite show, crocheting a blanket or doing a puzzle (or all 4 things at once!). We try not to take ourselves too seriously, we pet every dog we can and we will never give up trying to keep our houseplants alive (emphasis on ‘trying’). We cherish time with our favorite people watching movies or playing board games while eating tacos.

We were so pleased with OLAS and glad we hired them for our wedding. By far one of the easiest vendors we worked with. They were prepared, communicative, and always available for questions. We were impressed from the beginning with their clear communication and responsiveness and we stay impressed after seeing the end result. We hired OLAS for photography and videography. Both did an amazing job and we were so happy with the results. OLAS also took the time to understand our needs and the unique cultural components of our ceremony (Indian Catholic ceremony) that needed attention. Highly recommend this company for your wedding. We were also so happy with the video quality - it was like watching a movie!

We are obsessed with what we do for a living and have been shooting together since we met. We offer both Photography and Videography services, and are skilled hybrid shooters.

Our experience with Devan and Kaleigh was nothing short of incredible. The weather was less than perfect and that did not slow them down nor stop their shine. They made everything so much less stressful and made it fun. The final product was everything I wanted and could not wait to showcase and show off!

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. I would highly recommend Photos By Michael U to any couple looking for a talented wedding photographer who delivers beautiful, one-of-a-kind results.

I have been photographing most of my life but VanDee Photo was born in 2021 I am located in NW OH and primarily serves this area- but have never turned down the chance to travel. I specialize in a very hands off documentary approach which is the BEST for anyone who feels like maybe staring into the lens is a bit awkward (Guilty!) This specialty gives me the freedom to document life as it is. That's why photography became a thing after all ( ; Since I have to get to know you guys to plan a shoot that feels natural to you, all sessions require some form of consult.

I had a wonderful experience working with VanDee Photo for my wedding. Alyssa was quick to reply to any questions or requests I had, and she was always there when I needed her. You can tell Alyssa loves what she does - she was so friendly and quickly became a part of the family! She was with us every step of the way! She was spot on with the photos I wanted, and the ones she recommended we try came out perfectly. I would book her again and again! She was such a joy to work with and exceeded my expectations!

I've been photographing weddings full time since 2011. When I'm not chasing after wedding parties, my husband and I live to travel. We're avid scuba divers, love exploring, and get overly excited when we find a new brewery or speakeasy. We met at the University of Michigan and we stayed in Ann Arbor because it felt too much like home to leave.

Awarded Best of Zola
I've worked with Chelsea for close to a decade, and after our first couple of weddings together she has been a top recommendation for my couples and friends throughout that time, to the point that she was our own wedding photographer. Her warmth, listening, and creative instructions made it easy to take pictures throughout the day, and that same ability to communicate and be friendly makes her ideal to collaborate with as a vendor. It's hard to explain how much poise and adaptability is needed to be great at weddings, but Chelsea sets herself apart from just being a great photographer (which she is!) with these skills that make her great on a wedding day.
