I am Marissa, a photographer, mom, and wife. When I am not behind the camera you can find me venturing around Chicago or the country with my family. We love adventures and I love a delicious plate of nachos… snickers and a fizzy water I AM SURE YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY I DO WHAT I DO AND HOW I DO IT… I have always had a camera in my hand for as long as I can remember… I mean even one of my daughter is named after a camera and the other is named after light.. I bet you can’t guess what their names are. I absolutely love being there to capture all moments in life… especially weddings.

Marissa was so helpful in helping us determine what packages would be most helpful for us based on our wants and the day of the wedding, she was helpful and professional. The pictures she took were amazing and better than we could have imagined! We've had her since take other headshots and couples photos. We trust her with our photographic memories!

I'm Jarrod. I'm a wedding photographer based in the US. Originally from Florida and now traveling full-time in a Sprinter van shooting love stories. ​I like to describe my approach to wedding photography as documentary with an editorial flare. About 80% of the day I am capturing your day as it naturally unfolds in a beautiful way. The other 20% I love to prompt you or direct you to create romantic images that have intention and FEELING. Sometimes portraits will feel romantic and editorial and other times they will feel playful and fun. It fully depends on your personal relationship. I love to tell your story as authentically as I can.

Steve was absolutely amazing. He went above and beyond to help out on my wedding day. From digging dirt for our unity tree, to holding back branches while our photographer took pictures, Steve does it all. Besides that, I absolutely love his video style. He captured every detail beautifully and I’m so thrilled I’ll have these moments to watch forever. Also, his turnaround time with the highlight video was unbelievable.

My name is Kate Scott Daly, and I can't wait to meet you! I'm a Chicago native and have been a professional photographer for nearly a decade. I am obsessed with capturing the perfect moment that will make you gasp and say "Oh my god, this is amazing!" Being a queer woman, it is so important to me that you feel safe, loved, and beautiful every step of the way. If you're looking for someone you can relax with and just be yourself, you've found me! Let's face it: it can be awkward being in front of a camera. Even I feel nervous sometimes! I understand that anxiety and will do everything I can to make you feel fabulous!

My fiancée and I were photographed for our proposal/engagement by Kate and we loved her work! I found Kate on Zola and loved her portfolio. The diverse clientele and the way Kate was able to capture everyone so beautifully was a huge driver in choosing her to photograph us. When I reached out to Kate to get started with planning, I was blown away by her thoroughness, responsiveness, and clarity. She walked me through her pricing, what to expect, and even offered to help with light planning for the surprise proposal. I was super nervous but Kate was so kind and helped put me completely at ease. The day of the proposal (she said yes btw), Kate stayed in contact with me and gave me updates. Our original spot was busy, then free, then busy again lol. Kate arrived early and was scoping out the location, which helped so much! My fiancée and I don’t take a lot of photos, so I was a little worried about how our session would go. I had nothing to worry about! Kate’s energy was intoxicating in the best way! We felt so comfortable when taking photos. Kate had planned out poses and gave us tips the entire time. 10/10 would recommend her! The photos turned out amazing too! Kate gave us a few preview photos a few days later and we loved them. We still have a few more photos that Kate is finishing editing, but we’re so confident that they’ll be as fantastic as the previews. Overall, we really enjoyed our time with Kate and would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

I had the chance to work with Aubrey Lynn Photography at a wedding where I was the DJ. You was amazing to work with and a total team player. She was always ready to go for those special moments through out the day and captured so so many great pictures! She is a true professional and a pleasure to work with and takes amazing pictures. I have worked with a lot of photographers and Aubrey is in one of the best that I have worked with. I believe in her work so much I have referred couples to her. I can promise if you hire Aubrey, you will be thrilled with the results!

Timeless | Romantic | Classic Wedding photographer - I believe in the idea that "great photos are created from personal connection." I put my heart and soul into making sure the couples I work with have the best possible experience and end up with images that we can both be proud of. My favorite part of taking photos is being able to find the special moments within your big milestones. It's those candid times, along with the significance of the occasion, that come together to create your favorite memories and it's my job to capture those through my visual storytelling.

Meg Dunn Photography is wonderful to work with. Her personality and enthusiasm are infectious, and her attention to detail is phenomenal. Love seeing the amazing photos!

Hi, I’m Kirsten, the creative heart behind Kirsten Wray Photography! Since 2008, KWP has been capturing life’s most amazing moments, right here in Indianapolis and beyond. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ball State University, I followed my passion for photography to the vibrant city of Indy, where I’ve been telling stories through my lens ever since. Whether it's local events or adventures across the globe, I’m all about creating stunning, authentic images for my incredible clients. Let’s make magic together!

Kirsten Wray Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Kirsten's communication style was direct, effective, and genuinely sweet - she immediately put us at ease as a couple who doesn't usually love being in front of the camera. Despite having a huge family that was challenging to wrangle, Kirsten was professional, prompt, and thorough in getting all the group shots we wanted. The finished photos are of excellent quality and editing, capturing all the special moments of our day in a way that exceeds our expectations. Kirsten went above and beyond to deliver amazing photos, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We highly recommend Kirsten Wray Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Synergy Studios was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding photography and my Boudoir photoshoot. From our very first interaction, their communication was quick, friendly, and responsive - putting us at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Raven took charge and directed us in the best ways to get some truly beautiful and dynamic photos that perfectly captured the spirit of our special day. The final images were incredibly artistic and we were so grateful for Raven's encouraging and uplifting energy, which made us feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. Synergy Studios is not only incredibly talented, but also super kind - they truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day feel extra special. I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Hi there, thanks for stopping by! I'm Nancy, a freelance makeup artist. I provide makeup services for special events such as weddings. My job is to make women feel their best, whether it be a very soft natural look to full-on glam! I travel on location so that my client has one less thing to worry about.

Nancy was AMAZING to work with! Nancy was my MUA for my wedding during the hot month of August. I was afraid that due to the hot weather my makeup would melt off, but it did not! Throughout the whole night my makeup stayed intact - despite being done early in the morning. My makeup along with the rest of my bridal party stayed on throughout the whole night - and we all loved it! Nancy is the sweetest person, very professional, and is super attentive to detail. I would definitely recommend her for any events that you may have, because I sure will :)
