  • Serves Clayton, IN

Heyyy there! I’m Kiersten, the founder and creative force behind the lens. Born and raised in West Virginia, this beautiful state is what I call my home. I’ve developed a love for traveling across the United States, and I’m excited to expand my adventures internationally in December 2024. I’m passionate about capturing that best friend type of love—the real, raw, and candid moments that make your relationship unique. On your wedding day, my focus is on documenting your authentic selves, from those emotional first looks to cozy moments during golden hour. And I’m all about the pops of color!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kiersten for my wedding, and I can't recommend her enough. From the moment we met, her professionalism and passion for photography were evident. She took the time to understand our vision and was super easy to communicate with throughout the planning process. On the big day, Kiersten was a true pro—capturing all the special moments without being intrusive. She managed to blend into the background while still getting all the key shots we wanted. The candid shots really stood out. The final photos blew us away. The quality and creativity were top-notch, and we received countless compliments from our friends and family. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who delivers stunning results and makes the process enjoyable, Kiersten is your person. You won’t regret it!

Hi everyone - My name is Sydney - behind SydneyRaeMedia! I am an Oregon and Indiana-based travel and wedding photographer who is passionate about capturing honest, raw, and authentic photos that show who YOU are!!

Awarded Best of Zola
After working alongside Sydney on multiple occasions, I can confidently say she is the greatest photographer I’ve had the pleasure of being collaborators with. Her personality immediately allows clients to open up, be their true selves, and have a wonderful time while she works her magic on the camera. By blending traditional and creative modern aesthetics, Sydney’s style is entirely unique and one of a kind… and as the excitement grows to see the final edits, she is always quick with gallery delivery, unlike many photographers that take months upon months to cull and edit.

Paige Danielle Photography 

5.0

  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Clayton, IN

To sum myself up in this “about you” section is nearly impossible so here are a few things you must know. I like to have a good time with fun, real people, who love to laugh. You can expect to see me always smiling and have no shame in dancing with you on the dance floor to get some of the best photos. I just celebrated my one year anniversary with my husband, Nick and I am obsessed with my pup, Rylee. We love to travel, try new things, and are almost always outside, but I'll always come in for my fave snack of a charcuterie board and glass of wine.

We found Paige through an Instagram search of Indiana wedding photographers and fell in love with her style. I asked my brother who has a photographer eye for his opinion and he said, “she takes genuinely good pictures and doesn’t rely on a filter or editing to make them good.” So we booked her. And it was honestly the best decision my husband and I made. We booked her before any other vendor or even our venue so our wedding date revolved around having her as a photographer. She listened to every vision, thought, question we had and she made it feel like we knew her forever. When she did our engagement photos I was a little nervous at first because my husband is not a photo person, but she lead posing, positioning, and facial expressions so well. We were OBSESSED with our engagement photos and had them all over our reception and our house. On wedding day, the girls started to get behind with hair and make up and Paige had it all figured out. She added buffer time in the schedule and rearranged the schedule so that we were still on time for our ceremony. Before our first look, I felt like my hair piece was falling out and she fixed it so well that it held up for our grand entrance to the reception. Paige did so well with family portrait time and I have a huge family that she was able to wrangle and photograph the quickest and best I have ever seen. She helped pin up my bustle that was loose, carried our food so it wouldn’t spill on us, and took my hairpiece out for the reception repinning the loose hairs that stayed until our last dance. Now these are not in her job description but I feel are important to mention because she is the biggest reason our day ran so smoothly. She really thinks of everything and is prepared for everything. Paige made it feel like a friend was taking our pictures and we are SO grateful. We just have our sneak peeks right now but we are so excited to see the full gallery because the sneak peeks are stunning. My family and friends love the pictures so much. My husband’s grandma told me she looks through the sneak peeks before bed to relive the day because our photographer captured it so well she can remember every moment she looks at. Hiring Paige as your photographer is the best decision you could make for your day and when we start a family we will be using her again for maternity pictures.

Mel Schroeder Photography

  • Classic style

  • Serves Clayton, IN
  • Offer

I'm Melissa (she/her) and I'm so glad you're here. I've been photographing couples in love since 2019 and it's truly an honor to capture your love during one of the most important times of your life. One of my favorite memories in childhood was sneaking away with my sister and looking through old photo albums, especially our parent's wedding album. Providing those happy and emotional memories for my clients is one of my favorite parts of wedding photography. I pride myself on offering my couples a creative, high-touch, seamless wedding photography experience from start to finish. I look forward to meeting you and your partner!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding, having beautiful photos was at the very top of both of our lists. For us, a photographer came before all other vendors, and we both agreed it was simply not an area in which we’d cut corners. When I cam across Melissa’s photos, I immediately knew she was obviously the style and vibe we were going for. Within a matter of seconds, I was blown away by the amount of details her pictures had, and within a matter of minutes, I was sending her a message praying to the heavens above that she was available for our date. I could not recommend Melissa enough. Her photos are absolutely stunning - they speak for themselves. But what you can’t see by scrolling through her galleries or social media pages, is the absolute GEM behind the camera. Melissa is professional, fun, energetic, happy - and she brings that energy with her through every single click of her shutter. She was so good at guiding and directing us throughout all our photos — and you’re hearing this from a couple who is extremely awkward posing for pictures! She made us feel beyond comfortable — confident! She even made a super impression on our families and wedding party. They all made a point to tell me how much they enjoyed her throughout the day! We had so much fun with her and she captured us and our wedding day absolutely perfectly. Melissa goes above and beyond and truly listens to what her couples want out of their pictures. She managed to get every single picture I could have ever hoped for— and then some! We absolutely love both our engagement and wedding photos, and they will be on display in our home forever. I could not thank her enough. I can guarantee you, you will not be disappointed in hiring Melissa! She was the easiest, and by far the best, vendor we hired! I’d hire her again any day!

Hi, I’m Kaylee Creighton. I’ve been capturing love stories since 2017, and my approach is all about true-to-life color, timeless imagery, and showcasing natural beauty. I believe in creating photos that feel just as real and vibrant years from now as they did on the day they were taken. If you’re looking for a photographer who values authenticity, emotion, and a seamless experience, I’d love to connect and hear all about your wedding plans!

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than Kaylee! From the moment we met her, she was warm, professional, and incredibly organized—exactly what we needed on our wedding day. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, capturing every moment naturally and beautifully. Her attention to detail is unmatched, and her photos are simply stunning—true to life, timeless, and full of emotion. She has a way of bringing out the natural beauty in every shot, and looking through our gallery feels like reliving the best day of our lives all over again. Beyond her talent, Kaylee was such a calming presence throughout the day. She kept everything on track, helped with timeline planning, and made sure we got all the important shots without feeling rushed or staged. If you're looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, organized, and genuinely invested in your day, Kaylee is the one! We can’t recommend her enough!

It would be such an honor to document your wedding. I'm a mother, wife, Star Wars nerd, board game enthusiast and always up for a new adventure. My goal as a wedding photographer is to use my creativity to represent you as couple in the most authentic way possible, so that you can relive those memories for years to come. It's so important to me that you are able to soak up every moment and not be concerned with a strict and drawn out photography timeline. I want you to remember your wedding as just that, a wedding and not a huge photo production.

As a wedding planner finding a great vendor to work with is always a plus for the wedding day and Krista was just that. We had a pandemic bride who went through a ton to get married but Krista went above and beyond to to work with the couple to make their wedding day amazing. Not only was it great to work with her but the photo's were spectacular!

Howdy! I’m Aubriana, a photographer passionate about capturing life and love in their most genuine moments. My journey with photography began over a decade ago in high school and has since grown into a heartfelt career. Inspired by my time in Iowa and the beauty of Milkweed fields, my business name reflects my love for fleeting, magical moments—just like the Monarch butterflies that migrate each year. I believe every love story is unique and deserves to be documented with care, warmth, and authenticity. I’d be honored to capture yours!

Working with milkweed moments is a breeze! I was nervous because I have a 3 and 1 year old, and wasn’t sure how they would cooperate. Aubriana made everything go smoothly. She’s great with kids, great with directives on posing, and really made the day so fun! She got all the shots I dreamed of!”. Will be booking her again in the future!

Photographing a couple's love story is something I never take for granted. It is an honor & privilege to create art for my couples. My absolute favorite thing to do is illustrate your love story, your adventure, your favorite memories. Let's create some magic!

Ashley is the best in the business. Period. We were initially incredibly excited to discover Ashley had our wedding date available, however, the result she delivered exceeded all expectations. Not only did she make us feel incredibly comfortable during the personal shots, but she caught moments in which I was completely unaware of her presence. If you are lucky enough, hire Ashley to capture moments that you will cherish for the rest of your life. Five stars is not sufficient to describe the experience Ashley provides for her clients.

Hi, I'm Julie. Photographer & outdoor enthusiast. You want your genuine, joyful love captured on your wedding day. But right now you just feel, stressed, nervous, maybe even clueless….! As a wedding photographer, I don’t just show up on your wedding day. I come alongside you so that your wedding photography journey is easy as possible. Putting people at ease and using locations wisely (aka: creating beautiful photos from not-so-beautiful places) is my jam!

Julie is great. I first met her when she did my high school senior pictures and was impressed by how they turned out. My then-fiance and I asked if she would come shoot our wedding near Cinci (quite a drive for her) and she happily agreed. She was super sweet throughout the entire process. She did a complementary engagement shoot a few months before the wedding and used the opportunity to get to know both of us. I've never known a photographer to put actual effort into knowing their clients, until I met her. She definitely makes her clients feel uniquely cared for. Our wedding pictures turned out wonderfully. They are very colorful and bright, but not in a way that feels heavily edited or artificial. The pictures feel true to how my wife and I remember that day. The prints and books we ordered through her also turned out great. Overall, we cannot recommend Julie enough. Would rate six stars if we could.

In the world of weddings, where every moment is a brief chapter in a love story, I understand the importance of finding a photographer who not only captures images, but also resonates with the emotions of your special day. As a dedicated wedding photographer, my passion is to capture the essence of your special day with bright, emotional, and timeless images that tell your unique love story.

Neither of us are super comfortable in front of the camera, but Megan walked us through the posing and made us feel at ease. She was extremely organized, helping us create a timeline and sticking to it on the big day. This made sure everything flowed smoothly, and she coordinated effortlessly with our other vendors. Megan made the photo process efficient, allowing us more time to enjoy our day with our guests. She truly captured the magic of our wedding day. She felt more like a friend than just a photographer.

Shawnee was an unbelievable photographer and such a special part of our wedding weekend. From the moment we reached out to her to getting our pictures, she has been incredibly communicative, easy to work with, and deeply kind. She made us feel so at ease and taken care of at our Rehearsal Dinner and on our wedding day. She not only allowed us to be our fullest selves but also encouraged capturing us in ways that felt authentic and not stuck in expected wedding photos or gender roles. She captured our guests so beautifully too, particularly the kids who were in our wedding. Everyone's personalities shone through so wonderfully and the picture are absolutely stunning. We cannot believe how many and how incredible each and every photo is. We cannot recommend Shawnee enough!

We are David and Rachel McKissic, the owners and photographers. We have been in business for 9 eventful years in Indianapolis, and beyond. We took a risk with no experience, a love for art, and a love for love. We made this decision after we said "I do". We were going to buy a couch but we opted to chase a dream. We are still chasing that dream and capturing so many amazing moments along the way. We have 3 wonderful children who are the fuel of our lives' drive. I (Rachel) am a lover of detail and David lives life on the edge. Together, we are a complementary couple and you'll definitely sense it when you work with us! Let's connect!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Rachel and David on and leading up to our wedding day! From the moment I logged on to our first consultation with Rachel I knew we were in good hands. Her process for working with us was clear, straightforward, and attentive to detail. We were so glad that we were able to work with both Rachel and David and that they were willing to travel to South Bend, IN at a very reasonable cost. They were able to demonstrate poses together and each brought their own warmth and creativity to the shoot. They gave excellent directions and were exceptionally kind and patient with our family. The results are absolutely stunning - crisp, classic photos that celebrate our loved ones and even the smallest details of our wedding day! Our family and friends can't say enough about how wonderful they were to work with and how much they love the photos. We agree - we can't recommend Those McKissics highly enough!

I feel so honored to be a part of the most memorable moments in so many people’s lives. My desire as an artist is to create photos that are full of life and meaning and express beauty in an honest way. For this reason, I choose to photograph your wedding in an organic nature mixing film and digital photography. My career in the arts started in a more traditional setting, studying painting and drawing and I went on to graduate with a degree in Visual Communication. I do love all the mediums I’ve studied, but my true passion is photography. I have now worked as a photographer since 2010 and I am so blessed to be doing what I love.

Her style is very natural and timeless and she creates photos you'll love looking back on for years to come. She does an amazing job keeping to the timeline on the wedding day, and is very communicative throughout the entire planning process.

Laurel Roots Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Clayton, IN

Hi, I’m Abbey! I’m a Cincinnati-based wedding and editorial photographer with over 7 years of experience as a lead wedding photographer and 3+ years at a luxury photography company. I specialize in creating a safe, comfortable space and capturing timeless, candid moments that reflect you. I’m easygoing yet dedicated to keeping your day organized and stress-free, so you can fully enjoy every moment. Whether your style is sleek and sexy or boho and whimsical, I’m here to bring your vision to life. Let’s create something beautiful together!

Of all the good decisions my wife and I made during our wedding planning, of which there were surprisingly many, hiring Abbey and Wes with Laurel Roots Photography was the best one. Warning: Long, gushing review ahead. I am naturally suspicious of photographers owing to a lot of bad experiences. Being a guy probably adds to that; I don't think dudes are generally as comfortable being photographed as non-dudes. A lot of photographers I've experienced in the past have been super serious, love to make me do silly poses, and/or just don't do enough good work to be worth the cost, in my opinion. Photographers generally make me uncomfortable. Abbey and Wes could not have been more perfect for our wedding if they had meant to be. From the get-go, they were super communicative and easy to work with. We did our engagement photos super late in the game due to immigration constraints, and Abbey didn't stress about that at all. We scheduled with her easily, and when we had to reschedule and re-reschedule, she didn't mind at all. Both photo days were very easy and laid back. Abbey and Wes are very chill and open people. They're good at their jobs without being serious about it. They made the photoshoots fun, and for me that's a superpower. There were no goofy poses (except the ones we decided to do because we were comfortable around Abbey and Wes). I was very happy with our engagement photos and was actually looking forward to the wedding shoot. I do not exaggerate when I say that Abbey and Wes ran our wedding day for us. They gave us a timeline and made sure we got everything done on time. This is not an extra service we paid for, they just know their stuff and do their jobs well. I didn't really even appreciate it all until after the wedding when I realized they basically served as wedding coordinators for us without us asking them to. They took a ton of stress off of us and we didn't even know they were doing it. That's not all the extra work they did. Most people will just do the job you give them and take your check. I mean, that's what doing the job is. Not Abbey and Wes. The day of our wedding, they took time out of the day of their own initiative to drive around the city and find the perfect spot for photos. Again, this was not expected or requested, they just did it because they're awesome. I guess I just expected to take photos at the venue, but they got all the wedding party and family wrangled together and took us to a great spot in Covington I'd never seen. And the photos turned out fantastic. I know I'm biased, but they're seriously some of the best wedding photos I've ever seen, and we paid half of what my sisters paid for theirs. You know your photographers are good when your guests are talking about them during the reception. I seriously cannot recommend Abbey and Wes enough. I will use them for any and all photoshoots I ever need until the end of time. My wedding day was an amazing experience, and I owe a lot of that to Abbey and Wes. They went far above and beyond what we expected, and the memories we have from the wedding will last of a lifetime. Those memories wouldn't shine nearly so bright without such great photographers.

Fueled by equal parts Diet Coke and passion, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile, and ask time to please slow down. Your story - your love - is beautiful and I can't wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations over coffee, and in the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

Cat was hands down the best decision I made regarding my wedding! She is organized, knowledgeable, kind, and insanely talented. She put myself and my husband at ease on the biggest day of our lives. She jumped in to help when needed and made sure the day ran smoothly. Her communication was exceptional from start to finish. She captured our day so beautifully! We are so thankful that we had Cat capture our special day!
