Hello there, I'm Victoria! I am a portrait photographer based in Cleveland, Ohio, Erie, Pennsylvania, and the surrounding area. ​ I have been taking photos my entire life, but I did not become more serious about photography until 2016! Since then, I have fallen in love with capturing moments for couples, families, and graduates by providing them photographs they will have and cherish forever. Photography is my entire life, and it would be an honor and a privilege to work with you! I look forward to meeting you!

Victoria did the photography for my elopement. She was wonderful! I could not express enough how great she was to work with. Our photos look amazing! We could not have been happier with our experience. I would recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a photographer!

  • Serves Ilwaco, WA for additional fees

Like many people, I spent 10 years within corporate America and although I am thankful for my experience, it wasn't feeding my soul. I can be honest and say that I learned so much- my customer service skills, high-level organizational & strategy skills, and my overall work ethic comes directly from my experience within a regular ol' 9-5. However, I've been able to pair what I learned the last 10 years with my passion for photography, and have built this business to provide a stellar experience, the same one I would expect if I were getting married. Below I'll dive into what sets Loui apart, and I hope to hear about your upcoming day!

Loui Photography LLC / Loui Co. was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From our first interaction, Meg was incredibly timely, accountable, and friendly. Her work was simply spectacular - captured every special detail. Meg was more supportive to us on our wedding day than our day-of coordinator, ensuring our timeline stayed on track and that no important moment was missed. Despite Meg's growing popularity this year, we were able to book her at a lower price point but still receive the highest quality service. We cannot recommend Loui Photography enough to any couples looking for an exceptional photography experience on their wedding day.

I worked with Melissa and her team on an April 2023 wedding in New Jersey (which I was planning/coordinating). From the moment we were introduced to one another, Melissa was extra communicative, kind and patient. She made sure to be attentive to my couple's desires and weighed in with her opinion too. It allowed the couple and the rest of the vendors to feel at ease when the day of arrived. Melissa and her team are fun to work with and I can't wait to work with her again!!!

Hi, I’m Marla, and I’ve had a camera in my hands since I could hold one. Travel is what first sparked my love of photography– I felt the need to document every gorgeous landscape in my sights across Europe, Asia, the South Pacific, and here in the States. Once I started taking portraits, though, everything shifted, and I became obsessed with documenting love. I value photos as memories, and they’re extremely precious to me. To me, the ability to freeze a moment in time so you’ll always be able to return to that beauty and joy is nothing short of magic.

Seriously where to begin with how incredible Marla is as an incredible and artistic photographer, professional and organized business owner, and welcoming and beautiful person. She immediately makes you feel comfortable talking with her and she puts a ton of effort into getting to know you and your story. She cares so deeply about her couples and goes above and beyond with client experience before, during, and after your session with her. You spend a ton of time with your photographer, and this is who you want as your cheerleader, your confidant, and your friend on wedding/elopement day. Her eye for light is inspiring and you never again will say "I'm so awkward in front of the camera" because her posing is effortless and genuine. She brings out the best in you and your partner and your connection. Candid moments, deep emotion, and joyful forever memories! Marla is the photographer you've been looking for!

Where to start? During the first phone call with Sarah, even after we told her we were interviewing multiple photographers, she offered us pointers and advice to consider when choosing our photographer, not her as the photographer, but OUR photographer. From the beginning she wanted to ensure that we had the best fit for us. She went above and beyond by coming to our venues prior to the wedding to "get the feel" of what she would need to capture the perfect moments. On the day of the wedding (when it was pure chaos) she adapted quickly, efficiently and went with the flow. Sarah and Ben are incredibly kind, thoughtful, and have a wonderful sense of humor. All of the photos they took are amazing and very unique. The emotion captured by each photo brought us to laughter or tears, but both in a good way! We could not have picked a better photographer, and we cannot thank them enough for all they did!

Forget tradition. Screw the rules. You deserve photos that reflect your life, personality, and style, not some cookie-cutter session that looks like everyone else's. My name is Daniela (she/her). I'm a plus size, super tall queer. I'm detailed and organized, but am laid-back and will pivot quickly to adapt to changing circumstances. I believe in equity and inclusiveness of all loves, body types, and beings.  My favorite movie is Nightmare Before Christmas, I regularly rate dogs' butts, and I believe the highest compliment is being called "scrappy." 

Awarded Best of Zola
Daniela is by far the best vendor we’ve ever had!! She’s been a huge part of our lives as soon as we booked her for our wedding. She’s been there for our engagement, maternity, first born, family sessions and of course our big day! She was beyond friendly, easy to work with and her work speaks for itself! We’re sad as she moved out of state and we wished she would be able to continue being apart of our lives as we’re expecting again. Overall, she’s the best and you will NOT regret hiring her for any special occasion!

Hi!! I'm Christine. I'm a photographer based in Redmond, OR with a passion for capturing love stories and moments. I started this photography adventure in the search for my calling. I've always had a love for looking at old photos at my grandmas house, studying the emotions of people I didn't know, and being taken back to a moment in my memories. Photography is something that I love to do because it allows me to be creative and social. I get to meet the most amazing humans, put smiles on their faces, and give them something that they can cherish for the rest of their lives.

Where do I even start with Christine! She is a wonderful person and was an amazing photographer to work with. 10/10 would recommend her to all! Her style is exactly what I hoped for - warm, fun, and perfectly representative of our personalities. She did both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and I’m so happy we have her beautiful work for our memories. Christine is caring, professional, and quick to support. She made our wedding day fun and relaxed, and we never felt nervous in front of her lens. Christine, thank you for everything. We are so glad we got to work with you!

I’m a Colorado-based wedding and elopement photographer, and I shoot everywhere from Europe to locally in Denver! My favorite thing about photography is capturing the candid “in-between” moments, real emotions, and when people bring their dogs to their shoots. I work with my clients to create memories that last beyond their wedding day, and deliver photos that capture the fun, romantic and timeless moments so you can re-live them for years to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kelsey is an incredibly talented photographer - she truly "sees" the subject of the photo. She understands their energy, personality, and their comfort (and discomfort) zones. Kelsey has the ability to capture these special moments in time in a photo, that when revisited/looked at after the event, take you RIGHT back to that moment. She is artistic, professional, and consistent with her art and business. She is always exactly where you need her to be, and extremely reliable. She puts the client at ease, even when being in front of a camera is not the most comfortable experience for most people! She is organized in her approach before, during and after the event but never too pushy or overbearing. She listens, observes, and performs at a very high level. Working with Kelsey was a dream, and I feel thankful to have worked with her. I believe the photographer is the most important vendor during the "wedding" process (engagement, wedding, etc.) and I struck gold with Sunbeam!!

Like with anything I do, I’ve put much heart, work and energy into photography. Yet, the most rewarding part are still the emotions, and happy messages I get from my clients. Nothing charges and empowers me more. On your wedding day, you shouldn't have to worry, cause I am there to help you in every way possible. I make sure your dress is all nice and fluffed in every picture, that there is nothing in your teeth, I catch every fly away and I am there to be your hype girl.

I can't gush over Grace enough. After postponing our wedding twice due to Covid, we abandoned our original plans of having a huge wedding at home in Kentucky and decided to have a small ceremony at the beach in Florida. After finding Grace through hashtags on Instagram, we DMed a bit and setup a call. After talking on the phone, I was sold! Grace was my go to girl for all things Florida. She had the BEST recommendations for other vendors and was ALWAYS just a text away if I had any questions or simply needed someone to share wedding plans with. Even though we didn't actually meet in person until the day of the ceremony, it felt as if we had been lifelong friends. She PERFECTLY captured our ceremony and I can't wait to plan another shoot with her when we visit again!!

Let's have some real talk for a minute... YOUR WEDDING SHOULD BE A PURE REFLECTION OF YOUR LOVE FOR EACH OTHER. Whatever that means for the two of you. It does not have to be an event of pressure and outside expectations. This is the beginning of your greatest adventure and it should make you tingle with excitement and joy. We are whole-hearted believers in this, so we are here to help you every step of the way. If you’re down for a little bit of adventure and a whole lot of magic, let’s grab a drink, get to know each other, and start telling your story!

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a photographer, my (now) husband and I knew we didn’t want anything traditional. We didn’t want stiff looking pictures with someone just sitting there and posing us for hours on end or someone who we couldn’t be ourselves around. We knew before we even got engaged we wanted to travel for our wedding and make an adventure out of it. After hours of research, we finally found Kindred Co Weddings. It only took one video call to know she was the one. Olivia immediately made us feel comfortable and welcome. She was so helpful with all of her tips and suggestions. Planning a wedding is known for being stressful but Olivia made it the easiest process. Once the wedding day arrived, I had no stress - both her and her husband, Bryan, directed the entire day based on our wants and made it easily the most dreamy day! It was like going on an adventure with old friends - half the time I forgot there was a camera there, everything came so natural. I couldn’t ask for better people to share one of the most intimate and special moments of my life with. I feel extremely confident recommending Kindred Co to anyone and everyone I know. The sneak peeks we were able to see exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t be happier. My only regret is not adding on the videography to my package!

If you’re looking to hire a wedding photographer who can capture your big day in a “not so traditional” way, then you’re in the right place. We are Alternative Portraiture & Documentary Wedding Photographers based in sunny (and sometimes rainy) South Florida, and we like to think of ourselves as friendly, honest, and quirky (the good kind, we promise). We are creative beings at heart and love to tell stories unconventionally.

Erika is one of the most talented photographers I ever met. As wedding planner and designer I get to work with many great photographers but she is definitely one of my top to refer to. She will make you feel so comfortable, relaxed and you will have fun with this fun energetic lady who will capture every single moment of pure happiness. She is sweet, easy to communicate with and she gets you! Working with her is absolute pleasure every time!

To me love is art, and art is love. My intent is to produce different, authentic, and cinematic imagery for you + your partner to cherish. I work in collaboration with couples to foster a place of intentionality allowing them to feel their most honest selves while engaged in and surrounded by beautiful scenery. I find I create the best art when I'm outside letting my clients exist together, no silly poses or staging, just the moment. Your wedding day is about the connection you two have and I want to produce imagery that honors your connection in an honest and intimate way.

Working with Nicole on our wedding day was absolutely incredible! She took our beautiful outdoor scenery and incorporated it perfectly with our photos. She was so sweet and so professional the whole time and was always taking into account what we wanted for our photos! We had a handful turned around the next day, and she sent more in Polaroid film in the mail while we are waiting for the rest of our photos. I wound up having poison all over on my wedding day which I addressed with her and she went above and beyond to help it not look so bad in photos! Would recommend her to anyone needing a wonderful photographer for their special day!

You can find me chasing wild spaces and legendary humans who want to explore with nature as their witness. I believe in putting intention, adventure and art behind everything. When something special to you has meaning I love showcasing it and letting your uniqueness shine through. You are not ordinary, why should your elopement be? I love combining the beauty of the great outdoors with my own personal style to bring you photos that are timeless, unique to your adventurous spirit, and a little bit moody, like my cat Puff. (Don’t tell her I said that) Let’s Adventure, I promise you won’t regret it.

We are thrilled with the final results and can't recommend her highly enough to any couple looking for a talented and personable wedding photography team.

Mike and Elsie of Lifeslice Photography are incredible to work with on so many levels. As a caterer, I've worked with them on events with over 400 guests and, they are able to weave in and out of the crowd always capturing those picture perfect moments. Their attention to detail is what sets them apart from other photographers. Along with the fact that Mike has taken the time and effort to continually educated himself by not just becoming (one of only 3 in Lane County) a Certified Photographer but is also Accredited by Special Kids Photography of America. Also, Mike has done our business headshots for the last several years and they are always more than just your regular "headshot". I highly recommend Mike and Elsie for all you photography needs.

I had an amazing experience with Kira Trinh Photography! Working with Kira felt effortless. She was very professional yet kept the atmosphere fun and light throughout the session.

She helped bring all my visions to reality, I couldn't ask for better! The results were stunning!

Hi I’m Emma, an AR based, traveling photographer! My style is a blend of film, editorial, and artfully nostalgic imagery. I’m an observant documenter at heart. I was heavily raised on indie & coming of age films, so being moved by visuals is my cup of tea!! When it comes to your day, my goal is to direct when needed without interfering with the moment. I want to capture your spouse shedding a tear, your Uncle Jim going for his second plate of food, and your bff busting it down on the dance floor. I prefer to be a fly on the wall for these moments, but put on fergalicious and you leave me no choice but to hit the dance floor.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emma is AMAZING! She brought our vision to life above and beyond what I could have imagined. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and we genuinely had so much fun taking photos. The photos felt like us, which was the most important thing for us. 1000/10 would recommend her!!
