Her work is second to none—I loved my wedding day hair and my bridesmaids all looked stunning! Laura is also an exceptional communicator.

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.

Alexandra was amazing! Both my husband and I aren’t fans of getting pictures taken but she is just so personable and down to business that she made it extremely easy from the engagement pictures to the actual wedding. She was completely down to try out different things (like going to a waterfall and taking pictures in and behind it or the fact we had a short lightsaber battle on the dance floor) and captured them beautifully. My best friend also had her own engagement/wedding pictures taken by her as well and has decided to go to for any photography needs like family pictures, etc… Odds are, we follow her lead and continue as well because every picture we have received have been just awesome. She is very easy to talk to and quick to answer any questions that pop up. She made an outline of the big day that really helped us flesh out all the small details. We got our entire album of engagement pictures back after a couple of weeks and just a few days after our wedding, received a good amount of “sneak peaks” from our wedding day. Definitely excited for the rest.

INCREDIBLE company!!! I am absolutely amazed with the professionalism of both Glenn and our DJ, Tim, for our wedding. My wife and I are huge music gurus and I am a musician so we had very high standards of music flow, selection, specific timelines in which songs needed to be played and what parts needed to be played for things like our entrance video and ceremony. They NAILED every single one of them. We were so impressed by Glenn’s response time in a challenging equipment issue we encountered at our venue. His follow up was elite and his customer service unmatched. There was never too many phone calls or questions for him and he was very professional in getting the job done and putting us first. Tim absolutely nailed our wedding ceremony and reception. As I mentioned, we had various parts in our wedding night where we requested song build ups to begin at certain timeframes and “drop” at the correct time and Tim did it like a professional. Every music que transition and setup was perfect. Amazing job dude. He fit our personality and music style perfectly and felt like a friend doing our wedding. It was like we were at our own concert and made us the star of the show. I cannot recommend Tim enough. He made the night. Was a great guy as well who fulfilled our every request and did it with enthusiasm and passion. He’s so great at what he does. I can’t recommend Glenn and Tim enough and they just made our night unforgettable hitting every detail we were dreaming of. Flawless execution. Thank you gentlemen both SO much!!!

  • Serves Franklin, IN

I love photographing weddings. Between my second photographer and myself, we have photographed over 2,000 weddings. You can rest assured that your wedding images will be amazing and you will treasure them for a lifetime.

Ian Borgerhoff will forever be the vendor I recommend most!!! Not only are his photos beautiful, but he has a fun personality to work with as well. One of the many things our bridal parties loved about working with Ian was his educational session on how to best pose and smile for photos in the most flattering ways. This definitely helped our friends that aren’t very comfortable in front of the camera. Another reason I loved having Ian as my wedding photographer is because unlike most photographers, he gives you the option of receiving all Raw and unedited photos taken during your wedding day. This was HUGE to me because the wedding day goes by in a flash so I wanted every image I could get, even those with someone’s eyes closed or looking goofy because each photo was special to me. In fact, the edited photos totaled to nearly 2,000 images and the raw and unedited photos (every single photo taken through the entire day by Ian and his second photographer) was a whopping 15,000 and I could not be happier! It was so fun to relive the wedding day by going through all the images and because Ian is so awesome, he let me send him over a hundred more unedited photos that I loved and he took the time to edit every single one of them in his style. What I love about Ian’s editing style is that his photos don’t look overly edited. I personally am not a fan of when photographers edit photos heavily in order to give them a “moody” or “airy” vibe; I want the photo to feel like a moment captured in time. With Ian’s editing, the colors feel vibrant and beautiful without feeling artificial, forced, or overly trendy. We decided to also purchase our wedding album through Ian and he had been SO helpful with adjusting layouts and being patient as I went through every option for it. He has been so helpful and we absolutely love working with Ian. We even loved working with his second photographer as well. As the bride, I loved that Ian stuck by my side all day and had his second photographer with my groom and his groomsmen to ensure every moment was captured. Hiring Ian was the easiest decision of our wedding planning and we couldn’t be happier with the photos we received. Thank you so much Ian for capturing our perfect day beautifully!

I’m an introverted extrovert. And although I’m a terrible singer, I love to chant my favorite songs – everything from T. Swift to hip hop – when I’m in the car! I love tiramisu and coffee with too much milk. Scarves are one of my must-have accessories! I’m addicted to design of all kinds – interior, landscape, graphic, food, fashion, all of it. Childhood memories include Strawberry Shortcake dolls, Fashion Plates, and Fruity Pebbles cereal. And I always had a camera nearby, just like my Dad. Little did I know what an impact these early days would have on my future!

Stephanie was quick to respond, extremely helpful, and genuinely kind throughout the entire process. Her photography was true to color, expertly focused, and had a soft, romantic quality that perfectly captured the emotions of everyone. Stephanie excels at setting up each shot with the whole image in mind, creating beautiful backgrounds and clear, amazing focus on the people.

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.

We are Caitlin and Dejan (pronounced Dayin), we met each other in high school and we’ve been together ever since (time flies when you’re having fun!). Photography is something that we both have always had a passion for, and it wasn’t until we started to plan our own wedding that we realized we wanted to turn our passion into a career. Aside from photography, we love to spend time with our two dogs, Stella and Blaire. They are Australian Shepherds with HUGE personalities, and they are a big part of our lives. We are excited to start this journey and we can’t wait to become friends with you during it!

Awarded Best of Zola
Katie and Dejan are incredible - do yourself a favor, and book them ASAP! From our very first phone call, I instantly felt comfortable with both of them, and could tell that working together would be relaxed and fun, which was exactly what we were looking for. I could tell as soon as we met them for our engagement shoot that we made the right choice. My husband and I are both deeply awkward in front of the camera, which usually makes us very unphotogenic. Katie and Dejan helped us feel comfortable, gave us all the cues we needed to get cute poses, and we had such a great session! It was so nice being able to meet them both and work with them prior to wedding day. On the wedding day, Katie and Dejan were INCREDIBLE. They kept us on schedule, and (when we inevitably got behind because the bridal party was running late in hair and makeup), they stayed calm and collected, got us back on schedule, and never once made me feel rushed or stressed. They even got us some absolutely breathtaking preview photos literally the next day! I could not be happier with choosing Caitlin Davis photography - would highly recommend them for your wedding, engagement, or any special event! They are the absolute best!

When we first visited Kennedy Estates, it felt right and like we were meant to get married there. Candy was so easy to work with. She was quick to answer any questions that we might have had. My ultimate fear was that I would have to buy all of our decor but with Kennedy Estates, they have a ware house full of decor that is included in the price of your day. Day of, our coordinator was so amazing! She worked hard with all of our family and volunteers to make sure that our vision was possible. I wish I could go back to relive that day because this venue holds so many wonderful memories for me and my husband! Thank you so so much for everything!

Hello. My name is Stacy Henry. I left my job of 18 years in 2018 to pursue my passion in wedding and events. After receiving my Certificate from US Career Institute in 2019, I started working for an individually owned catering business as a Catering Coordinator. I was able to work closely with wedding parties to plan and coordinate their menu. Since then, I have advanced my knowledge and experience working as a server for other catering businesses. I didn't want my knowledge to end there so I got a job creating floral arrangements, bouquets, corsages, and boutonnières. The best hands on experience has been as a Venue Coordinator for 4 years.

Stacy truly helped plan and execute the most magical day. She went out of her way by always staying in communication, helping brainstorm ideas for yard games & a s’mores station at the venue, as well as took the time to meet in person to help plan our wedding. She had plenty of decor options for our centerpieces. Day of the wedding she arrived early to help with finishing touches and was always around to help a stressed bride. I would recommend her services to anyone planning a wedding

From the onset when we first started talking to Bill and his team, he was attentive to our vision. His thoughtfulness, communication, and feedback helped put our minds at ease during the whole planning process. The mansion really is a one stop shop, especially if you have a more intimate wedding planned. Glassware, stemware, cutlery, and dishes are all available for the reception. We had our wedding in the fall and knew that we wanted amber glasses/ decor for the event and had let Bill know we were purchasing some of this for our guests to use. What we didn’t expect was for him to give us access to all of the existing decor in the mansion that matched our aesthetic. You’re truly not just getting a fantastic venue; you’re working with an amazing person. We also originally planned to have a tent for the reception (which Bill gave a list of recommended places to rent from), as well as our ceremony in a different part of the venue. We changed our mind as the wedding got closer and Bill was not only flexible with this, but supportive and understanding. He helped us layout where we wanted certain decorations to go, how the seating should be arrange, and helped us map out what the day of the wedding would look like. He was so professional and was arguably as excited about our wedding as we were. Leading up to the day of the wedding, some of our guests were staying at the mansion. Bill and his team prepared the rooms for our guests and even made the moments before the wedding memorable as well. They had full use of the mansion and he was a call away if anything was needed. The backyard was decorated with strings of lights, a dance floor, and he had both pews and chairs for our guests to sit in during the ceremony. As for the venue itself, it was originally built by a furniture manufacture near the early twentieth century. The incredibly detailed woodwork throughout the house and in the historic dining room furniture reflect this history beautifully. The downstairs has two fireplaces that made perfect locations for family and group photographs. A freak thunderstorm delayed our departure from the venue, and once again, Bill came through by allowing us to stay an additional night there to ensure our travels were safe. You really can search across the country, but we truly don’t believe you will find a better venue or team than you would here. It made a potentially stressful event into such an amazing start to our marriage.

I have been shooting professionally for nearly ten years throughout Indiana--though I am very eager to travel with my camera!
