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

Phew! Where to start? Well, hi! I'm Caroline. I've been shooting weddings for over TEN years (I know, right?) and I am OBSESSED. I put my heart and soul into my work and want to provide you with the best pictures possible. I want to capture all of the beautiful moments but I also want to capture all of the silliness, goofy smiles, tearful faces and well... all of the good stuff. I also want you to have the best day ever so I work closely with you to ensure we make a schedule that's perfect and that we have SO much fun! More fun, less stress = amazing pictures.

We were absolutely thrilled with Asteria Photography for our wedding! Caroline was a dream to work with - her communication style was attentive, flexible, and dedicated every step of the way. She made sure she understood exactly what we envisioned for our big day and helped us craft a timeline to capture all the special moments, both big and small. When we got our photos back, we were blown away - the images were simply stunning, with an ethereal and timeless quality that perfectly reflected the joy and magic of our wedding. Caroline has an incredible eye for composition and lighting, and a passion for her work that comes through in every shot. If you're looking for elite, top-notch wedding photography with images that will take your breath away, I can't recommend Asteria highly enough. Caroline felt like family by the end of our wedding day - that's how invested she was in making sure she preserved all our cherished memories. We'll treasure these photos forever!

My name is Comfort and I am a Columbus based photographer who loves photographing real people being themselves! My style is authentic, vibrant and fun, and I pride myself in my ability to capture the spirit of every person and event that I photograph. The comment I hear most from my couples is that I am a calming presence on their wedding day and that my name is very fitting.

HELLO THERE! I'm so pumped you're here! I'm Kayla, a wedding photographer based in Ohio. I've always had a passion for being behind the camera—I held the camera, capturing all our old home videos. I love capturing life's sweetest moments, and hopefully, I can't wait to work with you!

To say we hit the jackpot with Kayla as our wedding videographer is the biggest understatement. From the first time we talked with Kayla, we knew she was the person we wanted to capture our wedding. Kayla has such a gift for capturing the true energy of such a special day, really highlighting our natural selves and love for each other. She made us feel so comfortable and able to be ourselves, almost forgetting there was a camera recording us! When we got our video delivered, it was WAY beyond our expectations.

I'm Sophie, a documentary style wedding photographer passionate about capturing your wedding day's unscripted, candid moments through a relaxed and genuine approach. I act as a fly on the wall majority of the day, giving you the space to be fully present with your loved ones and feel all the feels as I capture it all. Don't worry about feeling awkward in front of a camera - I will help direct you through our engagement session and your wedding day portraits with light posing that will feel natural and fun!

Awarded Best of Zola
Sophie was amazing from start to finish! In October 2024 we had our engagement session. It was great to connect with Sophie and get more of a vibe of her style. We were able to choose 2 locations that happened to be pretty far from each other, but both sentimental in their own ways! We also ended up including our kitty in engagement photos which Sophie was very excited and supportive of. We’re so grateful to have our kitty forever documented as an important part of our relationship! Sophie was so fun to work with and cemented our choice to choose her as our wedding photographer. Then in July 2025 we got to see Sophie again for our wedding day! She was great leading up to the day — helpful in so many ways and also was open to our needs and wants. On the day of the wedding, we met her second photographer who was also great! Obviously as the client we aren’t able to make decisions and final calls regarding the second photographer. However, Sophie is a great judge of character so I knew that her choice would make sense for our vibe — and it absolutely did! Our families and wedding party loved meeting and chatting with both Sophie and her 2nd. They were a welcome addition to our special day. Sophie also brought a digital camera so that my bridesmaids could also capture certain aspects of our day in fun-early-2000s-style photos! My girls LOVED this and we loved how quickly we got those photos back. As with any wedding day, ours was not without ‘hiccups’. Our major hiccup was the unpredictable rain that day! From getting caught in the rain to moving the ceremony inside last-minute, Sophie did a great job of rolling with the punches and working with all our vendors to ensure things went as smoothly as possible. As for the photos, we are in LOVE with how everything turned out. It was hard to only pick a few for this review! We were looking for bright and airy photos that were authentic to the real-life experience. We got exactly that! We were also pleased with the mix of candid photos and posed. Sophie made sure that we had the traditional moments captured and the authentic lived experiences forever documented. I would not hesitate to recommend Sophie or even hire her again! She continues to be a welcome addition to our loved ones and we can’t wait to follow her work for years to come. If you’re looking for authentic and beautiful candids, group shots, portraits, and detail shots, look no further. Sophie does it all.

Columbus Ohio Wedding Photographer | Stress-Free Timeline Planning + Candid Storytelling I've always had a love of storytelling—it's why I fell in love with photography. When I'm not shooting weddings, you'll still find me behind my camera creating short films. My work has been featured at Gateway Theater for the 48 Hour Film Festival and Studio 35 for 3 Weeks of Terror. There's an incredible rush watching your film on the big screen and hearing the audience's reactions—I bring that same cinematic passion & energy to capturing your wedding day. I'm extremely passionate about what I do, and I hope you can see that when viewing my images.

Melchy did a fantastic job with our wedding photos. From the start she was friendly, communicative and reliable. She knew our venue extremely well and had a great eye for where family portraits and first look could go. She deftly handled family dynamics, efficiently got everyone through portraits and took amazing pictures. You’re in excellent hands if you get to work with her! Thanks Melchy! We appreciate you!

These are your first days of what you'll build a family & life around - - days of grandeur that you'll share with those you love most for decades to come. The stories you tell and the story that is yours is important. Marriage is worthy of celebration and deserves print. Nothing of what you're doing in preparation of this wedding will last longer than tangible documentation of it. It's a preservation of why you're doing what you're doing. Your first heirloom piece is here for you. You deserve it. Few things are more radical than joining your life with another person on paper- - it's a proposition of vulnerability and that is radical.

AMAZE BALLS!! Brian is simply a genius. He was so much fun to work with and did a great job capturing amazing moments during our engagement shoot and wedding. We choose him because of his amazing work, but he blew every expectation out of the water.

We take photos you can feel, and that feel like you! We get to know YOU! We take care of you, first! You genuinely get to live and enjoy your day, the way you want to! Then, our photos get to bring you back to relive it! ALL the real moments, feelings, personalities, love, connection, energy! All the things that make you and your day truly yours, and worth remembering! You're way more interesting than some lifeless pose or stiffly staged moment! The real stuff will always be timeless!

Chris and Jess were absolutely incredible as our wedding photographers! From the moment we met them, we knew we were in excellent hands. They have such a natural talent for capturing not just the big moments, but all the little details and emotions that make each wedding unique. Our photos turned out better than we ever imagined. Chris and Jess somehow managed to be everywhere at once - capturing candid laughter during the ceremony, the tears of joy during our vows, and all the spontaneous moments throughout the reception that we might have otherwise missed. The quality of their work is outstanding, and you can tell they truly care about telling each couple's story through their lens. What impressed us most was how comfortable they made everyone feel. Our families and wedding party were completely at ease, which really shows in the natural, genuine expressions they captured. They worked seamlessly together as a team and were so professional throughout the entire process. These photos will be treasured memories for the rest of our lives, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. We wholeheartedly recommend Chris and Jess to anyone looking to capture their special moments - whether it's a wedding, engagement, or any other milestone worth celebrating. They don't just take photos; they create lasting memories that you'll cherish forever. Thank you, Chris and Jess, for helping us preserve the magic of our wedding day!

A little about me: When I'm not traveling the world with my camera, I’m at home in Columbus, Ohio, watching The Office, at the gym or playing video games. I’m a self-proclaimed plant geek, 100% extrovert, and a nerd who enjoys laughing loudly and making others laugh loudly, too (which usually means inappropriate jokes or meme references).

We could not be happier with Native Light's wedding photography! The incredible photos speak for themselves, but Caroline's kindness makes it worth writing a review. Caroline was talented, professional, efficient and such a joy to be around throughout the whole process. We look at our wedding photos frequently and we are immediately taken back to the emotions of each moment. Forever thankful!

I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!
