We loved The Spot! We had our wedding reception there in August. We has 185 guests attend, and the space was perfect size for it! The dance floor is huge, and you can have up to two bars including one big one! The location is perfect - we had out of town guests stay in hotels one block away and a lot of people walked to The Banks bars after the reception! Another great aspect is they let you bring in your own catering/alcohol, which gives a lot of flexibility (and isn’t as hard as you’d think to coordinate).

Emily is absolutely incredible! From the very start of the wedding planning process to the big day itself, she went above and beyond to make everything seamless and stress-free. She was always available to bounce ideas off of and provided so much valuable insight. Whether it was creating the perfect timeline, coordinating with all our vendors, or helping me elevate our table decor with creative ideas, Emily’s expertise was evident every step of the way.

Let me share a bit about my journey in the wedding industry. With two decades of experience, I've had the privilege of working with some of the top DJ companies in the area.

From the beginning, their DJ was easy to communicate with, coordinated seamlessly, and made sure we were in sync for key moments, allowing us to capture every special memory smoothly. Their music selection was spot-on and truly set the mood for each part of the event. They read the crowd perfectly and kept the energy high, making sure the dance floor was packed and guests were having an amazing time.

Right Here Photography 

5.0

Cincinnati, OH
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000

For over 14 years, I’ve been one of the lucky ones who gets to have my passion also be my profession. Under the big skies of Wichita, Kansas, where I was born and raised, I bought my first DSLR camera in 2008 and was hooked for life. Then I landed a job with a national portrait studio and was suddenly getting paid to do what I loved. My love for the craft took me to several cities as a regional manager, and eventually landed me here in Cincinnati. Though I moved on from that job, Cincinnati sunk its claws into me for good. I, my wife Katie, and our four (or more depending on when you ask) beloved cats now call the Queen City home.

I would highly recommend these two! Our original wedding photographer bailed on us the day of the wedding. Right Here Photography came out to Colorado and offered to redo our wedding photos. It was a wonderful and stress free photo shoot. They researched our area to come up with a list of places to shoot. They drafted the entire schedule from what time to leave to get to each location, time we had in good sunlight, traffic, and how long we could spend in each place. Though the schedule was very detailed, it was flexible and they ensured us we did not feel like we had to stick to it. I had a blast that day. It was so nice to have a stress free wedding shoot outside of our wedding day, knowing we did not have a timeline to stick to or guests to worry about. They made me feel so special and beautiful that day. We were able to relax and have fun which made the photos that much more special. Each picture turned out stunning and was linked to a memory of how enjoyable that day was. I would 10 out of 10 recommend them!

Hi!! Im Sophie and I’ve pretty much had a camera in my hand since I was 12 years old. I’ve always been obsessed with the “aesthetic” and romanticizing every moment possible. Being able to pause the present moment, and create art that will last a lifetime…. That feels like magic to me! I strive to create images that feel like a movie, images that tell your unique love story. My mission is not only to capture the special moments, but everything in between. The laughs and the love… the tears and the makeup mess of getting ready. All of the authentic beauty of your wedding day that you will be able to look back on forever.

Sophie is so communicative, kind, personable, and overall amazing, she did our engagement pictures and they turned out BEAUTIFUL. She made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable. We both had no idea how to pose, and she helped us the entire time and made it so easy, and fun. She even put together a few little collages for us and also made some black and white to add a fun variety! We cannot wait for her to do our wedding, we are so lucky we found her!!

But I do love to travel and will go anywhere! I'm your golden sun, chasing love, wine night having, pizza eating, dog loving, crazy mess behind the camera. I started this journey of mine in 2019, and fell in love with the ability to tell someone's story in photos. I strive to tell your story in these memories, by putting my full heart into it each time. So when you look at them you are brought right back to that moment in the years to come.

Taylor is not only an incredible photographer, but an incredible person! From the very first time i spoke to Taylor on the phone, we instantly clicked. She immediately met all of my needs and expectations that I had for my engagement and wedding photos. She was also willing to do anything to make us happy. Not only was she our photographer, but worked actively as a “day of coordinator”. She spent the entire day helping me relieve stress, and serve as my personal hype woman. I seriously could not picture our special day without Taylor in it. Not only did we love her, but our bridal party loved her as well. Her work is incredible and you will not regret booking with her!

This is going to be a long one, but Kathy is SO worth it! Kathy and I first met during one of many rough times in my life. I had just lost two wedding venues (one closed and one gave our date away) and had just had arm surgery (which I was awake for and it didn't go great, so I was very traumatized at the time) and I was running late trying to parallel park my car with one arm. I remember Kathy calling and me crying on the phone saying how I was struggling to park and Kathy offered to park the car for me. The moment she whipped that car into its spot, I knew she was the one for me. I have numerous health issues and trying to explain my dream wedding and how those issues fit into it, as well as all the normal overwhelming aspects of wedding planning, seemed daunting to explain to a stranger, but Kathy really understood. She got it. Meeting Kathy was one of the best things that ever happened to me honestly. She not only got my wedding back on track, but became one of my closest friends and confidants. Kathy helped me find the most amazing vendors, from the photographer to the DJ, and averted so many crises, from helping find someone to rescue my dress the day before the wedding after the alterationist didn't finish it (but said he did, amongst other issues) to making the random "bubble guy" disappear (apparently people follow wedding parties now and literally stalk you to the church and then offer to blow bubbles for photos for money, but he wouldn't leave after we said no until Kathy stepped in) and everything in between. If you are the person that crazy, random stuff happens to all the time and you really need someone who is at the top of their game, I cannot recommend Kathy enough. If you are looking for someone who will be a friend and a confidant, a protector and manager and emotional support through a challenging part of your life, I recommend Kathy. If you are looking for someone who is a genuinely kind and happy person who will make you feel safe and better about yourself after every conversation you have with them, I recommend Kathy. Kathy, thank you, truly from the bottom of my heart, for making it Our Dream Day! We love you!

Hello! My name is Christian. I'm an artist. Whether camera shy or not, my couples and their friends or family have a great time with me and I make the experience pretty easy and enjoyable since I'm an awesome director. It has taken me a lot of studying, practice and natural talent to get to where I am today. I've documented over 600 weddings leaving many happy clients in many different areas of the world.

My fiancé and I hired this company for both our photo and video services, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the results. The photos were stunning, with a polished, magazine-worthy quality that felt like something out of a celebrity shoot. The video was equally impressive—fun, engaging, and expertly crafted. From start to finish, we felt completely at ease on our wedding day. Communication was seamless throughout the planning process, and they were by far the fastest responding vendor we worked with. The team was punctual, reliable, and incredibly easygoing. They made everything feel effortless and were always understanding and flexible, never demanding. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Trained with Bobbi Brown, Laura Mercier, L'Oreal, MAC, and more, her portfolio includes national and local publications, commercials, reality shows, and celebrities.

I booked Chenese for my wedding makeup based on her great reviews and amazing work and I am so glad I did. My wedding was planned in 2 months and she was able to easily schedule me for my run through and wedding makeup. She was available to speak to me and answer questions leading up to my run through appointment. She was extremely thorough in her questions and professional at all times during the makeup run through. She asked thoughtful questions and made me really hone in on what I wanted. It was a smooth and easy process. On the day of my wedding she was on time and very helpful. And her work was beautiful! I got compliments all night and wore my makeup long into the night, with it looking just as she first did it. I was so pleased with how I looked on my wedding day thanks to Chenese - I truly felt like a princess. She also did wonderful work on my mother who is in her 60s and she made sure her makeup looked appropriate to her age. I also found out afterwards that she also did several of my cousins makeup for their weddings! I have found my makeup artist here in Cincinnati!

My therapist says there is no such thing as a bridezilla, but I think I got close. Amanda and the rest of the Mojave East team did everything in their power to reduce my stress and make my day awesome. I wasn't allowed to get hungry, stressed, or into micro manager mode. They made sure I was focused on my husband and our family. I had a great day, so much that I'm hoping to have our anniversary party there. if they have your event date available, jump on it. It's a beautiful space, the acoustics are nice inside and out, and you can decorate it almost any way you want. They have great relationships with vendors, and make sure your day is wonderful from the time you get out of the limo to the time you get back in at the end of the night.
