As a wedding professional of 17+ years, I understand the importance of hiring a photographer you can trust. I've been photographing weddings since 2007 - I LOVE ALL things wedding! Watching your Mom zipping up your dress while she fights back tears, the first look with Dad as he sees his baby girl ready to walk down the isle... capturing all the little moments while you say "I do" is what I live for! I believe your wedding day is the start of your family legacy and it's meant to be captured and enjoyed for years to come.

Shayla saved our wedding photos after our photographer cancelled last minute. So scary to have a quick change but dang, wish we had gone with Shayla from the start. Our photos are absolutely incredible. Shayla was the sweetest and will for sure be an asset to your wedding.

I've always been a creative at heart, my own mother is an artist so maybe it's genetic? However, photography was never on my radar. One fateful day, a friend reached out to me requesting engagement photos for her and her love. My iPhone and I were absolutely honored at the opportunity! After the debut of those beautiful, phone quality captures, the inquiries came rolling in! I was pleasantly surprised and within months decided it was only right to invest in proper gear. Officially established in 2021, I've been beyond blessed with the chance to meet so many wonderful people and capture their once in a lifetime moments! Anya Grace 🖤

Anya is a highly talented photographer. I struggle with following simple directions, which may be due to the language barrier as English is not my native language. However, Anya was extremely patient with me. I hired her twice for my wedding and graduation pictures, but I actually worked with her three times, including engagement photos, the wedding, and the graduation shoot. She made me feel like a celebrity in all the pictures. I highly recommend her to everyone.

The Honeymooners Productions

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $6,300
  • Serves Emden, IL

The Honeymooners Productions are a husband and wife duo who are determined to live life like they are on their honeymoon! They specialize in both PHOTO AND VIDEO which simplifies you’re planning process and budget. Their energy for life and love makes them PASSIONATE about your wedding experience! Let's get this party started! Email us about your wedding! We would LOVE to hear alllllllll about your day and your love!

Let me start this off by saying at the top of my lungs - WE LOVE LOVE LOVE THE HONEYMOONERS PRODUCTIONS!! Now that I've gotten that off my chest, here are the reasons why we recommend them to the highest extent: As a lesbian couple it was very important for my wife and I to find a photo & video vendor that was LGBTQ+ friendly. When we asked The Maddie and Luke about that, they instantly made us feel comfortable with their answer. Before the (first) wedding date, they were in constant communication with us and made a point to get to know us well before the big day. Then the pandemic hit, and we had to postpone our wedding. We had already paid our deposit to The Honeymooners and several other vendors. Other vendors were not as kind or accommodating to the change, but The Honeymooners stayed in communication with us through the changes and made it easy. Maddie & Luke had stayed in contact with us throughout, checking in periodically. 1 year later, we had to postpone again due to the on-going pandemic and once again Maddie & Luke took it in stride. They never gave us a reason to worry that they would come through for us. FINALLY, we had our big day. As soon as Maddie and Luke got to the venue it all made sense why we liked them so much. They greeted us like old friends. They were warm, kind, organized, and extremely professional. They just went for it at every step. They just never missed a beat. The few times I asked them to capture a photo of this or a video of that, they had already done it before I even thought of it. Even in how they directed us to pose or activities to capture on camera, it was all perfectly us. Not a single moment felt forced. I truly believe that because they took the time to get to know us before the wedding, that is what made everything they did feel so utterly authentic to us a couple. If it sounds like I am obsessed with them, it is 100% because I am. They weren't just the photo & video vendors that we hired for our wedding, they became our friends through this process. We had an absolute blast with them, and we laughed together all day. They literally made our wedding even better, and I believe that if we hadn't had them there it wouldn't have even been as fun as it was. The very next day after the wedding they sent us about 8 photos, already retouched and perfected as previews of our gallery. We were blown away by how they captured us and our love in just these few photos. What is more is they also created a 1 minute preview video that we have watched about 1,000 times already. Everything from the moments they included, to the song they chose was PERFECTION for us. 1 month after the wedding, they sent us our full photo gallery, full wedding video, and individual videos of specific moments. We were floored by the quality of their work. Everything is even better than we ever expected and we are so thankful to have those memories from the best day of our lives. I also have to note that I am in fashion so I have worked with a ton of photographers and videographers in my career - I can say with professional confidence that Maddie & Luke are some of the most talented people behind a camera I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I could go on and on about these two beautiful humans, but to sum it up - there are not strong enough words for how much we recommend The Honeymooners Productions to every couple (especially our LGBTQ+ family who need that kind of love and care). We love you Maddie & Luke!

We bring loads of personality and passion, capturing every joyful, genuine moment perfectly. You want more than just great photos—you want to feel totally at ease with your photographers. We’ll get to know your story, your friends, and family to create a wedding experience that’s unforgettable. With us, your wedding day’s story will be beautifully showcased in photos that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

If you need the most amazing photographers for your wedding... please, book this duo. Brett & Joanna are an incredible husband wife team. Brett is hilarious and so easy to get along with. Joanna gives direction well and again, is hilarious. Both communicate SO well and their passion for photography is inspiring. We felt more than comfortable with them along our entire journey!! Our photos are GORGEOUS and they truly captured the memories that we will remember forever. I must include a prime example of how in-tune these two are: I have a scar on my right arm that I am self conscious about and truthfully, it would have been a challenge for anyone to get around. However, our photos limited the number of times my scar was visible, if even at all. A truly unique touch that means so much. We will 100% be booking them to photograph all future events in our lives. I can't say enough about how incredible these two are. Worth every penny and then some!!!

When we hired JVaughn Photography we knew we were getting an amazing photographer but we had no idea we would be getting such an amazing person and friend out of it too! Justin is the absolute sweetest person we have had the honor of meeting and he has such a great eye to make our vision come to life! He made sure to have a meeting with us to get to know us and understand the vibe we wanted for our photos and he kept constant communication throughout the entire process to make sure all the bases were covered and he had a clear understanding of the timeframe and game plan. He was the one vendor we NEVER had to worry about. After he gave us our engagement photos, everyone knew he was the perfect photographer for us. Once the wedding day came, the entire bridal party and guests could not stop raving about how much they loved him! He gives clear direction on how to pose, what to do with your hands, how to fix your face, and knows how to use lighting. One of our biggest concerns when finding a photographer is having someone know how to use lighting because more often than not either I get lost in the light or my fiancé gets lost since our complexions are so far from each other. Thankfully Justin knew exactly how to make it all work out! He also stuck to the game plan and made sure none of those important shots are missed but he was also flexible enough to allow us to add in and change some of that game plan. I can honestly sit here and say that thanks to JVaughn Photography, our big day was absolutely perfect (even during covid). We already told him to get ready for our maternity photos, gender reveal, baby shower, and family portraits. I will forever recommend him to EVERYONE.

Red Bank Studio was founded in 2017 with one goal. To create unique, elegant and timeless memories for our couples. We look in meeting couples that love to be goofy , laugh and be present on their amazing day that is their Wedding Day. Our style of photography is all about you. We want to make sure we capture all the giggles, all the laughs, all the tears and even those goofy moments on the dancefloor. At the end of the day, we want to make sure you look back at your wedding day pictures and videos and relieve every single moment same like when it happened.

Ten stars! I know I am super late, but better late than never. I just wanted to say thank you for how awesome Michael and the Red Bank Studio team were for our wedding. From their punctuality and professionalism throughout the whole process, to Michael’s contagious smile and good spirit on the wedding day, we must say that we could not have been able to find anyone else better than them to take care of us on our special day. I am not just saying this myself, but in fact many of my guests very impressed with Michael’s work and charisma, and came to me to complement his work and personality. Your energy, your charm, and your ability to make people laugh even when they do not want to, made our wedding day extra special. I must say that I was extremely worried about my husband and his lack of smiling skills, but he gave us the best smile I have ever seen in him. More than taking pictures and recording a video, Michael and the team would make sure that we were comfortable and we never felt overwhelmed with pictures that day. They actually enjoy their work. You can tell is not a job for them! I cannot thank you guys enough, and I will be forever grateful for the stellar work you guys performed at our wedding. I wish you and your team a successful and healthy 2023, and I hope we get to work together soon!

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, 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.
