About Banker Creative

Banker Creative

We're Joe and Ashley, high school sweethearts turned husband and wife photography team from Cleveland. We met in 2011 while taking college classes in high school, and Ashley talked Joe into a photography class with her (he was planning to be a marine biologist). We've been taking pictures together ever since. We've photographed 313+ weddings since 2017, from backyard elopements to big church weddings, in Ohio, Pennsylvania and all over the country. When we're not shooting, you'll find us with our rescue cats, talking fantasy football, or defending pineapple on pizza. Saturday weddings start at $3,000, and Friday, Sunday, winter and weekday dates start lower. Send us your date and we'd love to hear all about your plans!

Our style is relaxed and real. We'll guide you when it helps, then step back and let the day happen, so you get the quiet looks, the big laughs and the packed dance floor, not just stiff poses. If you hate having your picture taken, you're in good company. So many of our couples tell us we helped them relax and feel like themselves. We stay calm when family photos get chaotic, and you'll get sneak peeks within a few days. One couple talked with 17 photographers before choosing us. Another wrote, "We never felt like we were just another wedding on his calendar."

    The dream team you NEED!!!

    Joe and Ashley are the best photography team out there!!! We chose them as our wedding photographers, and it was the best decision I've ever made. From start to finish, they made the process so easy - with phone calls to discuss details and answer ALL of my questions, super fast responses over email, and then seamless photo-taking on the day of! They were so fun to be around too, and made everyone feel at ease - even my now-husband, who doesn't love getting his picture taken. The photos themselves are to DIE for - we received the sneak peek on Thursday (our wedding was Sunday 5/24), and I was FLOORED. They turned out even better than I imagined, and all of our family and friends have been raving about them. We're so excited for the full gallery, which I know will be just as amazing as the preview! Thank you so so so much Joe and Ashley - we'll call you next time we need professional photos!

    Professional, Experienced, Absolutely Delightful!

    My Husband and I could not be more thrilled with our choice of Joe and Ashley to capture the most incredible day of our lives. We had a limited time to take pictures between the ceremony and reception but we never felt pressured or rushed with them. Ashley and Joe were able to capture the memories we wanted in the most beautiful images throughout the day and always made sure we were comfortable and at ease. Never once, were we worried about timelines or agendas, Ashley and Joe handled everything with grace and expertise. We cannot recommend them highly enough!

    Talented and Creative

    From the very beginning, working with Banker Creative felt easy and reassuring. Joe communicated frequently and clearly throughout the entire process, which helped us feel calm and confident going into both our engagement session and our wedding day. We’re not people who naturally think about poses or photo locations, so being able to fully trust his judgment was a huge gift and he absolutely delivered. Joe was consistently professional, warm, and genuinely kind. On a day filled with big emotions and nerves, his presence was grounding and made everything feel more relaxed and natural. He brought a calm confidence that allowed us to stay present and truly enjoy the day. Creatively, Joe is incredible. He guided us through posed shots in a way that never felt stiff or awkward, and somehow made us feel comfortable and ourselves in front of the camera. Even more special were the candid photos. The quiet looks, the laughter, and the moments we didn’t even realize were happening at the time. Looking through our photos now feels like reliving the day exactly as it was. The highlight video deserves special mention. We genuinely cannot watch it without crying. Banker Creative did an amazing job capturing our vows and the speeches and weaving them together into a moving, emotional recap of the night that brings us right back to how it felt to be there. Banker Creative didn’t just document our wedding, they captured the heart of it: us, our guests, and the feeling of the day. These are memories we will treasure forever, and we cannot recommend Joe and Banker Creative highly enough to anyone looking for a team that truly cares about preserving moments that matter.

    Best choice for our wedding!

    We couldn't have found a better duo than Joe and Ashley! We hired Joe as our photographer and Ashley as the videographer and their energy together is incredible! They make such a great team; they helped us have fun even during the awkward photo moments (which ended up being the best pictures) and made us feel so comfortable during both our engagement session and our wedding day. Communication was great and Joe answered any and every question I had promptly throughout the entire planning process. Our photos and video came out even more perfect than we could ever have imagined and were delivered to us in just a few weeks! Banker Creative was the best and most perfect choice for our wedding and I wouldn't recommend anyone else!!


Nope! Ashley and I are the only team we can offer. We have been together for over 14 years and have perfected a wedding day workflow that is incredibly efficient and I wouldn't have it any other way!
I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.
No. We are taking a break from videography to focus our efforts to provide the best overall experience to our couples!
My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online in under 6 weeks after your wedding. Other sessions are delivered typically within 2 weeks of the session. All of this information will be outlined in your contract! Additionally, we like to send over a few photos within 48-72hrs of the wedding day so that you have something to share right away!
The completed number of images varies since no two weddings are the same! Generally, most wedding days will have between 600-900 edited images.
