I am a professional photographer based in Ohio. I have always had a deep passion for photography, which began at the age of 12. Growing up in a small city in Poland, I nurtured this passion and further pursued it by attending and completing photo school in 2015. In late 2016, I moved to Ohio. In 2019, I started my photography business, turning my lifelong passion into a thriving profession. For me, photography is not just a job; it is a way of life. I pour my heart and soul into every project, ensuring that I capture your special moments exactly the way you envision them.

Joanna is a phenomenal photographer. We could not have found a better option for us. She focuses on our desires for photos but also is always excited to give her own ideas as well. She mixes posed photos with candid in a flawless way to produce the most beautiful photos. We also love how quick she is in her work and just captured our engagement and wedding day photos so seamlessly and gorgeously. We intend to hire Joanna for future work as well beyond her wedding photography skills! Would recommend her to absolutely everyone!

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

HEY! I'M ASHLEY! Aka, Your Professional third wheel! I am so happy you dropped by! I am a uber bubbly, warm hearted, person who loves to order 3 drinks at Dutch Bros and say its for other people but really its just for me. When I am not spending my lifes savings at Dutch Bros, I am professionally following peeps in love and photographing their stories. I am a lover of true crime and murder podcasts!

Ashley and her crew were fantastic, always making sure we were on top of the timeline and getting the exact photos we wanted. They brought out the best in us in every single shot, capturing all the special moments of our day. From Day 1, Ashley passed our vibe check instantly and was always just a text, email or call away, giddy about our nifty and crazy ideas. Her team was incredibly flexible, and we had an absolute blast working with them. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and videographer to document our wedding - they truly made the experience unforgettable.

I am a luxury destination photographer based in MICHIGAN, COLORADO & FLORIDA! I am ALL over Michigan and all over the nation! I have a home in Lansing, Holland & Traverse City. I travel all over Michigan capturing my clients from Lansing to Grand Rapids to the west coast of Lake Michigan to Mackinac Island & Traverse City to all metro Detroit! I have a second home in Vail/Summit County, CO as well as Clearwater Beach/Tampa. This allows me to be local to multiple places and states! This career is so much more than just showing up and taking photos. It's emotion, it's detail, it's getting to know my clients and capturing each of them uniquely.

Dani not only helped us find our elopement spot in Colorado but she was so helpful in structuring our plans. We had our air bnb for a week and she had flowers and photos placed in there to make us feel at home. It was so sweet. She had a changing tent for me to change into after we hiked to our elopement spot. After we were married we ran around the mountains taking photos and we felt so happy and comfortable! The icing on the cake, the photos turned out AMAZING!!!! She is stuck with us forever as our photographer! Hire her!!!

I'm Laura, aka the spicy hufflepuff redhead behind the camera! I want to give you permission to be yourself, to have fun, and to enjoy your wedding day stress free and focused on the person you’re marrying. If you want someone to just show up to your wedding and take some nice pictures, I’m probably not the photographer for you. But if you want someone to guide you, be your friend, AND give you images filled with all the emotions from your wedding, I’m your girl, and I can't wait to meet you.

As a venue manager and coordinator, Laura went above and beyond communicating prior to the wedding she had at our venue. Our venue is unique and family owned and operated. We have lots of spaces and places to create photographic magic and she did not disappoint. Her professionalism and ability to help the couple feel at ease was wonderful to work with and the photos at the end were amazing. We love having her and she is a preferred vendor for us. If you are looking for a quality photographer with an even better attention to detail and CARES about you as a client…look no further :)

Hi there! I'm born and raised in Louisville, KY and have taken my Bachelors degree in Photography into my photography business! I photograph everything from newborns to weddings, and even a 100th birthday party! I've loved every moment of every event, and I am thrilled to continue this for many more years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Photography was the biggest stressor for me because I really needed someone who made us feel comfortable and relaxed the whole day. Kyle is the whole package: very professional, but incredibly friendly and makes you feel at ease so you don’t look stiff or have a forced smile in every posed photo. Communication leading up to our wedding was also great - he even came out to the venue with us to walk through locations. The sneak peeks came the following afternoon and there was a lot of them! It was great to be able to show people photos from our wedding the day after and anticipate the full album, which took us hours to look at when it arrived because of the sheer number of photos we received. One of the best things was how many photos we have of our friends and family at the reception - everyone has loved having a picture of them having a good time with us. We love going back and looking at these photos now, and can’t wait to put our album together.

Chris and Tyler were simply amazing to work with for our wedding photography. Extremely down to earth guys with a passion and knowledge for what they do, you’ll know you’ve made the perfect decision right off the bat. Won’t miss a beat on any requests you may have in mind either. Their ears, communication and light-hearted energy helped progress our plans with ease while capturing every piece of our big day, and all without an ounce of stress. Thanks for keeping us punctual fellas! Lol They were genuinely a pleasure to work with and I would recommend them to any friend searching. We gave Chris creative reign for styling and I was quite impressed (hard critic) with the engagement photos all the way through our outpouring love, forever captured, in his work on the best day of my life so far.

I absolutely love what I do. I’m so grateful my job is to capture people’s cherished memories. I took up photography in my high school yearbook class.

I have been photographing weddings since 2017 and have learned lots of tricks along the way. I’m always happy to help a day run smoothly.

Samantha did such a great job! She was super flexible and laid back while still being incredibly organized and efficient.

When I'm not capturing beautiful moments, you'll find me savoring fine wine and crafting to my heart's contentment.

I’m typically shy and not very photogenic, so I was extremely anxious about how our wedding photos would turn out. But after finding LaDonna through a Facebook ad, I immediately knew I wouldn’t have to worry if she was our photographer. She took the time to understand me and helped me find my confidence in front of the camera. By the wedding day, I felt completely at ease and able to focus on the moment with my husband rather than my insecurities in my head. LaDonna and the LT² team captured everything beautifully, balancing candid moments with fine art shots that truly tell our story. The photos are so authentic, and I’ll cherish these memories forever, along with the confidence I gained. Thank you, LaDonna, for an unforgettable experience! 3 7.27.24

Jovan was absolutely amazing to work with. On our calls before the big day, she was always so happy and excited and answered all of our questions and it gave us such a sense of ease. I never once had to worry or stress about photos. Day of the wedding she completely killed it. She was still her happy self but was able to organize us and snap some amazing photos. She did a fantastic job of even catching the perfect small moments, some of which I didn’t even know she was capturing. The photos are all so naturally beautiful and I can’t even begin to describe how much we love them. They are clean and bright and show us, our personalities, and our people perfectly. 100% the best decision we made.
