Hi, I'm Kelsey! I'm blessed with a loving husband, 3 kitties whom I adore and a plethora of interests. I love hiking with my husband, martial arts, playing music and singing, I'm crazy about animals, I'm absolutely fascinated by linguistics and other cultures. Also, & to my hubby, I'm rather nerdy (you'll see me rolling around in my limited edition Iron Man Hyundai, haha), so if you're into Star Wars, superheroes, etc., I'm sure we will get along just fine ;). What did I say about a plethora of interests? I've been doing photography passionately for at least 14 years. Any talent I have is God given and I do this all to bring fame to His name!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I worked with Paul for both our engagement session and wedding. Knowing nothing about CIP, we decided to work with them due to the affordability of their wedding packages and ample portfolio photos. It was important to us that we found someone who could capture both the sappiness and the goofiness of our relationship, and Paul nailed it. Not only was he personable and entertaining, he also knew exactly what he was doing. He asked us the right questions prior to the big day and made sure we knew what to expect, and he slid very easily into the role of MC, which made the event run so much smoother. Not only that, but the turnaround time for photos was FAST, which was definitely a pleasant surprise! I have nothing but praise for Paul and the CIP team and am so thankful we got the pleasure of working with them.

Sarah is so fun to work with, she is quick, offers great direction, and makes sure you get the photos you want AND gets you back to the party. The BIGGEST flex though is the fact that I got married on May 25 and I had sneak preview pictures sent to me by May 28 and the first batch available in an online gallery on June 4! The photos are beautiful, she really captured the drama of our venue and the vibrant colors we chose for flowers and decor!

Snowdrop Creative Co. 

4.3

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves Columbia, PA

Snowdrop Creative Co. was born from a dream. A dream that I could do the things that I LOVE, be present for my children and my partner, and create work that I am proud of. It sounds like what we all wish for, right? Well, it isn't always so simple as "I want this, so I'm doing it." I spent ten years in retail management. I spent long days away from my family, only to get home to them and be too tired to enjoy my time with them. My life was cold and dreary, and I knew something had to change. And so, Snowdrop was born. A place where I can create and love what I do. Capture memories and magic and joy in a single moment.

Alex has done two different photo sessions for me and both turned out beautifully! We did a family mini session and cake smash photos for my son’s first birthday as well as business photos. Both sessions were super fun and Alex made the process so easy. Her communication was great and she was wonderful to work with. My daughter (3) has been super shy for family photos in the past, and she was starting off the same way this session but Alex let her do her own thing, relax, and open up on her own. By the end Kinsley was talking her ear off and trying to get her to go on an exploring adventure with her. I highly recommend Alex and her team for your photo needs!

Hi friend! Grace here. I’m from a small town in south-central PA, where I was raised on the great outdoors, drive-in movies, & board games.

I believe that marriage begins with a promise & a lifetime of memories follow after that. My clients are my friends & I feel privileged to begin this adventure with you!

Paige Kowal Photography offers wedding, elopement, engagement, lifestyle, family, newborn, & brand photography. We work closely with clients from Harrisburg to Philadelphia & beyond - including destination weddings. Paige has always had an eye for design. As a child, she would bring her ideas to life through fashion design sketches & dream-home floor plans, & she collected clippings from advertisements. Always with a camera in hand & an old nostalgic soul, Paige treasures the value of a photo - a moment held in time, passed down for generations.

Paige is a joy to work with and incredibly talented at what she does. She makes sure she understands your vision to execute it perfectly for your big day. I was recommended to Paige because I wanted direct flash photography with a vintage vibe. Not only did we get the best photos with a mix of editorial and candid, but she completely nailed the look I was going for and included some more traditional first look shots as well! My husband and I aren’t models by any means, but we felt totally comfortable to be ourselves the entire day because Paige (and her second shooter Mackenzie) made us feel completely at ease. Cannot say enough good things about Paige. You will be gawking at your photos the minute you get them!!

Hello, congratulations on your engagement! So happy you've found me! Weddings are such a special time for you, the newly engaged couple and all of your family & friends. I want to celebrate your love and make it so you can relive it for years and years to come! I want you to see yourselves shining through your photos and not me, the photographer. I want you to be comfortable and completely relaxed for your whole wedding day. I promise to keep things fun, upbeat, and sometimes more important I promise to capture every little detail but still make sure that you enjoy every part of the day that you have worked so very hard to create!

The best decision I made for our wedding was hiring Ashlee as our photographer! She got back to my emails quickly and communicated well throughout the time leading up to our wedding. Our pictures were the most important part for me. I was 100% confident in my decision simply from our engagement pictures Ashlee took. She actually got my husband to loosen up, smile, and have fun while taking pictures. Our wedding day was no different. She had us laughing and playing around, and she truly captured our love and fun. The entire wedding party and our parents kept saying how amazing Ashlee and her second photographer, Taylor, were. They both worked so well together and with our party. They captured all the groups of people I wanted, and all of the other images I wanted as well, such as the details of everything I made for the wedding (flowers, centerpieces, signs) and specific shots of us around the venue. Ashlee even captured moments I had no idea she was there for which I love. We got our pictures back really fast. All of them are gorgeous. I can't stop looking at them! They aren't just staged poses. They're fun, loving, and most importantly, real. Ashlee's pictures show your true personality and capture the moments you never want to forget for the rest of your lives. I can relive every part of that day thanks to Ashlee and her incredible photography. It'll be the best decision you make, too!

I’m Wic Woodford and I’m a former classical music radio host (WITF, Harrisburg), and, well, I’ve been shooting weddings since 35mm film days. Always at the back of my mind when I’m photographing event is “…and then what happened?” It’s that little sentence that drives me to capture your wedding day in a way that’s real. Friends and family should be able to look at your pictures and instantly see the emotions, surprises, and joy of the day.

We know it is extremely rare for a photographer to recommend another photographer in the same market but when it comes to Wic, it is actually pretty easy. Wic has been a staple of the Central PA wedding scene for years and has worked with us on numerous occasions. He not only has an amazing eye for the creative, he is simply great at keeping the day rolling along while catching fantastic photos along the way. While some photographers are great at the photography and others are perfect at keeping things organized, Wic is one of the rare professionals that can do both. We couldn't recommend him more can't wait to see what he continues to create going into 2024.

I’m a wedding photographer, a mama, and a huge believer in the power of memories. Life moves fast—trust me, I know! As a mom, I’ve learned how important it is to hold on to the moments that matter most, and that’s exactly what I do for my couples. I’m all about capturing those real, unfiltered moments. I want to give you more than just photos; I want to give you memories that take you back to your day every time you look at them. My approach is relaxed and natural—I’m not into stiff poses or awkward moments. Instead, I’m there to quietly document the real you, the love between you and your partner.

Alex was SO amazing to work with for our wedding day! She was super professional and did an incredible job directing all my family members!
