Caitlin was a godsend on my wedding day! From the very beginning, our engagement photos were everything we dreamed of. When the big day arrived, she was such a calming presence and knew exactly what she was doing, poses, photo ideas, etc. This completely took the pressure off of me! On top of all of this, she communicated with me throughout the entire process and for an extra touch, even sent us a little gift basket as a thank you! I could go on and on but overall, I highly recommend Sweet Scales for your wedding photos!

VanDee Photo 

3.6

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Van Wert, OH

VanDee Photo is ran by, me! Alyssa VanDusen. 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.

VanDee Photos was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer. Having worked with VanDee before, I knew her thorough, kind, and appreciative communication style would make wedding planning a breeze. She kept us informed about every step of the process. On our big day, VanDee captured the excitement and energy perfectly. Her fun, enticing shots highlight special moments from the ceremony and reception that we'll treasure forever. VanDee is talented at photography in any setting - from posed family portraits to candid dance floor antics. Her skill shone through in the final album, where she preserved the raw emotion and joy we felt. I'd enthusiastically recommend VanDee to any couple looking to relive their magical moments through vibrant, energetic wedding photography.

Awarded Best of Zola
Meg and Jj were photographers for our wedding and we can honestly say if they were not vendors they would have ended up on our guest list! We found Megnolia Photos about a year out from our wedding and each time we met with Megan and Jj , they were so enthusiastic about the event, the requests we made, the details of the day, and EVERYTHING else. From multiple FaceTime calls to discuss our vision, to creating Pinterest mood boards together for our wedding Megan and Jj continued to show how passionate they were about photography and capturing the timeless moments from our special day. Throughout the wedding day, guest would even come up to us constantly to complement the professionalism, skill, and engagement Megan and Jj had the entire day! The 150 guest who attended our wedding and my Husband and I have nothing but the best things to say about our experience with these two. Once receiving our sneak peak photos and our full gallery, we were both brought to tears from seeing how every moment was captured beautifully - happiness and joy could be seen in every photograph. We are now almost at the 5 month mark from our event and I cry every time I look at our gallery because of this. Megnolia Photos is a full on 6/5 star vendor to work with, as both Megan and Jj are definitely vendors turned friends to us. I will forever be a cheerleader to their business. BOOK THEM!!

Julia Brown Photo

  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600
  • Serves Van Wert, OH

I'm Julia - a traveling wedding and elopement photographer based in Northwest Ohio. You deserve to have your story told in an organic way. The problem many of us face (myself included) is that so many of us find it difficult to step in front of a camera. One of my biggest passions is relieving people of that anxiety. I will get to know you for YOU, and then I'll capture it in a way that you won't even notice I have a camera in my hand. This will probably involve some craft beer, or (let's be honest), a shot of tequila. But, I'll also lead you through a series of prompts and guide you through every single step.

Working with Julia was the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very beginning, she completely understood our vision and absolutely nailed the brief. On the wedding day, she was organized, thorough, and encouraging, which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She coordinated seamlessly with her second shooter and team, kept the shot list perfectly on track, and managed a very large group for posed pictures with ease and kindness. Julia curated a wedding gallery that truly reflects our style while adding her own artistic touch. The result is something unique and beautiful that feels entirely ours. We have never received so many compliments in our lives, every photo is a reminder of how special the day felt. Best of all, Julia worked quickly. She sent us preview pictures within 24 hours of the wedding, and she turned around the rest of the photos quickly too, taking only a few months to edit. She didn't compromise quality and everything is cohesive. Truly stunning! Her energy was warm, uplifting, and genuine throughout the process. We are endlessly grateful for the memories she captured, and we would work with her in every lifetime

  • Serves Van Wert, OH

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my wife and I were planning our wedding, we were initially hesitant to book Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. since they were not a local company, and we didn't get to talk directly to the photographer or videographer until the day of the wedding. That being said, what sold us was their website/gallery, their professionalism when getting a quote, and that our venue vouched for them. OLAS' team's communication was responsive, quick, and thorough, putting us at ease. We had planning calls and surveys leading up the day of. Jasmine T did a stellar job setting us up to look our best, and she had her work cut out for her, because she was dealing with two brides, two dresses, and an outfit change! Jasmine was also great about following our instructions from the survey and planning meetings. For example, we had included pictures in front of a wall of donuts at the venue, but we later changed the wall of donuts to cannoli's and forgot to tell OLAS. Turns out the venue threw in the donut wall back in without telling us. Jasmine brought us to the wall, and it made for a great surprise and cute pictures. Jeremy did an amazing job on the videography and editing. Watching the highlight video made us cry because he really captured our best moments and those real smiles in the midst of the stress and hustle and bustle of the wedding day. OLAS gave us complimentary rush photos and video without us asking which was a 2-3 week was turn around. Despite our initial trepidation, we are so happy we booked OLAS. They went above and beyond to make our special day memorable for a lifetime. We are so grateful for their talent and highly recommend Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. to any couple looking for breathtaking photography and videography.

I’ve been to many weddings, but none felt like this. From the moment she walked down the aisle, everything seemed perfect. The groom’s expression was full of awe, and the tiny moments, like their hands brushing nervously, made my heart ache in the best way. The flowers smelled heavenly, the sunlight streamed through the windows just so, and every face in the room reflected happiness. I couldn’t help but notice the quiet, loving glances they shared before speaking any words. When they exchanged rings, I felt tears slide down my cheeks. The reception was magical, with laughter echoing through the hall, and the first dance made everyone sigh in admiration. By the end of the night, I realized I had been part of witnessing something rare and beautiful a love that was real, tender, and unbreakable.

You are probably assuming my about me section will have a story about how I always wanted to be a photographer, I came out of the womb holding a camera, but that couldn’t be me. I stumbled into it, literally. I had no plans to become a wedding photographer. I was either going to follow my dad’s path and go to dental school, or become a social worker. But a freshman in college decided to shoot a few photos for fun, and now over eight years and almost 200 weddings later, I could not imagine myself doing anything else. This is my dream job!

Abby wasn’t able to travel to my wedding but she sent her assistants and she edited the photos. It went absolutely perfect. The photos were beautiful and I got so many meaningful photos with my family and his family that I wouldn’t have thought to get. I sent her draft of a timeline and the photographers printed it out and had it to make sure the photos I wanted got done. They were absolutely amazing. Thank you so much to Abby and her team.
