Awarded Best of Zola
Meg and Jj were photographers for our wedding and we can honestly say if they were not vendors they would have ended up on our guest list! We found Megnolia Photos about a year out from our wedding and each time we met with Megan and Jj , they were so enthusiastic about the event, the requests we made, the details of the day, and EVERYTHING else. From multiple FaceTime calls to discuss our vision, to creating Pinterest mood boards together for our wedding Megan and Jj continued to show how passionate they were about photography and capturing the timeless moments from our special day. Throughout the wedding day, guest would even come up to us constantly to complement the professionalism, skill, and engagement Megan and Jj had the entire day! The 150 guest who attended our wedding and my Husband and I have nothing but the best things to say about our experience with these two. Once receiving our sneak peak photos and our full gallery, we were both brought to tears from seeing how every moment was captured beautifully - happiness and joy could be seen in every photograph. We are now almost at the 5 month mark from our event and I cry every time I look at our gallery because of this. Megnolia Photos is a full on 6/5 star vendor to work with, as both Megan and Jj are definitely vendors turned friends to us. I will forever be a cheerleader to their business. BOOK THEM!!

My name is Alyssa, I am the owner and photographer of VanDee Photo, I am located in Northwest Ohio but travel just about anywhere! I love Michigan and hope to photograph more weddings there! I am 24 and am a mom of 3, wife, and plenty of pets to love on. My love for photography has existed for as long as I can remember but my grandpas have really pushed me to create a business with my passion. VanDee Photo was officially created in 2021, but I have been photographing since 2016! I am mostly photographing weddings these days, maybe yours will next!

I had a wonderful experience working with VanDee Photo for my wedding. Alyssa was quick to reply to any questions or requests I had, and she was always there when I needed her. You can tell Alyssa loves what she does - she was so friendly and quickly became a part of the family! She was with us every step of the way! She was spot on with the photos I wanted, and the ones she recommended we try came out perfectly. I would book her again and again! She was such a joy to work with and exceeded my expectations!

I’m a, wife, momma, and urban chicken-owner. I’m originally from Bluffton, Ohio where I also attended the University majoring in art and graphic design. I love my family fiercely. I am a giant sucker for reality tv shows, but not the crazy drama ones. Vacations are my jam, and my favorite is our annual week long trip to the Smokies on our Harley. Just me, the hubs, and the oh so beautiful mountains. *Sigh*…I’d love to call that place home. What’s your story? I’d love for you to tell me! My favorite thing about this job is connecting, loving, and serving my clients. I try to make taking photos easy and fun for all involved.

Lydia was amazing to work with. She was very professional from the first phone call. She was thorough in her questions and her photos are stunning. She gave clear guidance for posing and captured our wedding day beautifully. Her turn around time for pictures was quick! I would highly recommend Lydia for anyone getting married

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

We used Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. for our wedding and engagement photos, and they were amazing from start to finish. Their communication was clear, helpful, and enthusiastic throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was efficient, stunning, and highly personalized to our style. They sent us multiple photographer options to choose from, and we went with Sabatani, who captured every moment of our special day beautifully. OLAS also helped us create a detailed day-of timeline to ensure everything ran smoothly. We're thrilled with the photos and couldn't have asked for a better photography experience for our wedding.

Anna Elisabeth Photography

I specialize in capturing authentic moments and genuine emotions through a storytelling + editorial style approach - I celebrate the beauty of moments that sing, people who dance, and the essence of love. I can promise every shot will tell a tale that lingers in the heart! I cannot wait to tell your story!!

My newly minted husband and I were over the moon from the initial contact with Anna Elisabeth. She is an excellent listener with a superb sense of capturing our wishes in her photographs. We had an unusual experience in that we wanted to capture both of our faith traditions on different days and different geographical areas in the same state. Anna Elisabeth professionally and respectfully photographically savored these traditions beautifully with her photographic gift. She was present and her presence was professionally and discretely demonstrated. Her keen sense of recording precious moments was one of storybooks.. from having the pictures of the bride's mother place, her once veil (when the mother was married 57 years ago) to having the groom's mother putting a family heirloom bracelet on to capturing the special wink given by the groom when he first saw the bride walking down the aisle with her father. All these moments were special at the time and Anna Elisabeth captured them beautifully and discretely. Communication is very important to us, and Anna Elisabeth was professional, prompt and demonstrated honest integrity throughout the entire process. We are providing her a 5 star rating but she is off the charts and anyone who uses her will understand why she should be rated a 10!

Awarded Best of Zola
These ladies are phenomenal! We hired them for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made for our day. From our first chat over zoom, we knew instantly that we could trust them and that they would capture us, not just a one-size-fits-all deal. They truly capture each couple in their own unique way and you can tell just by looking at their work. I’m so glad we did an engagement shoot first, because it got all the nerves out for us and we got to build more of a relationship with them before our day. We are not people who like being in front of cameras, but their enthusiasm and professionalism put us, especially me, at instant ease! The photos turned out great even with it being an unforcasted rainy and unusually hot fall day. And the wedding, holy moly! They had to wrangle all sorts of family dynamics and chaos while still taking beautiful photos in the rain. Not sure how that happened, but they made it all seem so easy and we had so much fun with them! We didn’t have to worry about a thing! …Not one thing! We received our first look photos in no time after the wedding and we are in love already. Can’t wait to see the rest! We will definitely be contacting them again in the future. Wherever you are in your photographer search (and reading reviews like this), just stop and set up a chat now. You will not be disappointed!

My name is Abby, a Midwest based wedding + boudoir photographer who's really obsessed with her job. I've gotten to see how directly photos can impact people. As we grow up, we realize how priceless photos are and how quality pictures become prized possessions. It's a moment in time you can forever look back on. It's easy to take pictures, but it's hard to capture moments. I'll love making magic with you, because everyone has some magic in them that deserves to be celebrated.

Abby is simply incredible. She works hard to make all parties comfortable, heard and loved. She makes all special moments a little more special. The ability to capture any and all little moments of intimacy is a rare find and you will not be disappointed.

We’re just a few midwest kids who love pursuing lots of fun hobbies and having a good time. On any given day, you could find us reading a book, watching our favorite show, crocheting a blanket or doing a puzzle (or all 4 things at once!). We try not to take ourselves too seriously, we pet every dog we can and we will never give up trying to keep our houseplants alive (emphasis on ‘trying’). We cherish time with our favorite people watching movies or playing board games while eating tacos.

Diana and team were simply the best! You want a bestie during wedding planning, you want a hype girl as you just get into your wedding dress. Diana is your girl! I booked Diana after many other phone calls with other photographers, she spent literally an hour on the phone with me getting to know me, my fiance and our life. Never once did she mention her availability or prices. Which was really refreshing after having so many vendors treat you like just a paycheck. We became besties in that conversation. During our engagement session she cheered us on even tho we were so awkward in front of the camera. You could never tell by the photos! One word. Stunning! Diana will reach out periodically during the time up to the wedding and help with locations, other vendors and help with time lines. We had many conversations and most of them started with “how are we feeling about wedding planning”…. What vendor thinks like a best friend rather than a vendor in this day and age of wedding craziness… Swatch studios does! They go above and beyond! Day of wedding if I needed something Diana was right there cheering me on, it was 90 degrees on my wedding day and 90% humidity. I was a sweat mess, she kept saying like oh yes girl and pose like “ that’s my husband… yas!” Which honestly is why I’m obsessed with every single wedding photo we got back! When the time came for Diana to leave for the night. I cried because I was so sad our time get together was over. If my novel doesn’t convince you, that you need to at least schedule a chat with Swatch Studios … are you even a bride?!

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.

Kirsten Wray Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding.

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.

Hey!! I'm Eden :) I am a documentary style wedding photographer who loves the unique, thoughtful weddings where people do what's true to them. I love my work to be a collaboration of ideas between me and my couples to create something truly special and meaningful to them. All of my best friends are past brides and fellow photographers, and I love getting to share in such an important season with so many amazing people every year. I've been diving into shooting film photos the past few years and love the element it adds to a final wedding gallery as well. I love getting to know who people are and letting that shine through the photos.

Eden is seriously absolutely amazing! She makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you get the best poses! I sent her poses that we liked from Pinterest and she had them ready on her phone for the wedding! I love her style of editing, she’s SO NICE, so easy to get ahold of, and she got our wedding sneak peeks back to us at midnight... the same night of our wedding!! Her husband Mitch does videos so if you want a great photo/video package, they are perfect to work with. I could not recommend her and her husband enough!

Jenna Rosalie Photography

  • Serves Payne, OH

I was the student who had no idea what she wanted to do after High School. As my peers were applying to college with a clear career path in mind, I struggled to choose just one route. I could see myself in so many roles, and yet none of them fit JUST right. In 2011, my son was born and a new path appeared on my map: Motherhood. This role took over and nothing else mattered. The year progressed and my son grew, and grew and grew some more. I bought my first DSLR to document that rapidly growing boy of mine. It wasn't long before those peers from high school came to me to document their lives as well, and my career path was finally chosen.

When I first reached out to Jenna I was very concerned about how our timeline would work, before even hiring her she sent a mocked up time line for what our day would look like. That's the moment I knew I had to hire her- she put my mind at ease. She went with all of our ideas from our engagement shoot including our dog to the day of timeline where we told her we wanted to enjoy happy hour. They respected all of our requests and captured the MOST BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS. People are constantly impressed when I show them our wedding album and they captured the magic of the day while allowing us to enjoy ourselves as well. Any and all questions I had, she answered. I'm a very anxious person and any time I talked to Jenna ahead of the wedding she put my mind at ease.

Annie and Mike were absolutely wonderful to work with! We had multiple calls leading up to the big day to discuss the details and all the shots we wanted. We ended up having to make the decision to fast forward our wedding 4 months due to Covid, and Annie was so easy to work with and accommodating of our needs! I would definitely recommend them, and we actually did recommend them to some of our close friends who also had to rearrange their wedding due to Covid. They booked Annie and Mike and it was great to see them at their ceremony as well!

You can trust that in choosing sixacresphotography for your next big moment you will save cash without sacrificing quality!

Honestly, we're pretty bad at talking about ourselves, but here we are! We love taking photos, and are grateful we've been able to photograph for over a decade! Collectively our experience has brought us across the country (and globe!) photographing and filming weddings, families, and more for all different clients, specifically with a narrative cinematic feel. We have been working together since we met in college, married shortly after that in Southern California, and have lived in Los Angeles, the East Coast, and planted roots in Detroit. We are parents to two wonderful boys, and caretakers of two cats and a dog.

I had the pleasure of working with Jamie and Paul as a wedding planner. They were easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding, and they were beyond helpful as we developed a rain plan for the couple. Despite the dreary weather, they managed to capture beautiful outdoor and indoor photos. I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again soon!

My name is of course Brittaney Brandt, I have been married for ten years now. My husband is the best, we have two beautiful little girls that are my everything. They are each of mini me of one of us! I have been shooting photography for about eight years now. I love my job, it gives me the flexibility with a Military husband and two younger ones that I need and to still be there with them. It also gives me a chance to create and capture beautiful moments for others, which is something I have always loved doing. I am a huge fan of candid images; I like catching the random moments, laughs, during our session or during your wedding day!

Brittaney from Brittaney Brandt Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. She was attentive, professional, and personable throughout the entire planning process. She went above and beyond to capture all the special moments and important details of our big day. Even though I don't normally enjoy having my photo taken, Brittaney made me feel totally comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. More than just a vendor, Brittaney felt like a friend documenting our memories. The value of her artistic photography paired with the personalized care she provides is truly unmatched. I couldn't recommend Brittaney more highly for wedding photography services!

I could not more highly recommend Kristen! Kristen was one of the very first vendors that I booked for my August 2024 wedding and I could not be more happy in that decision. Kristen's style is timeless and true to color. She focuses on capturing the day as it happens rather than focusing only on super posed shots- which I love! Kristen's communication is clear, prompt, and honest- I so appreciated her insight through the wedding planning process and especially in developing the timeline. We also received far more sneak peeks than we expected and I'm still shocked with how quickly we received our full gallery! Kristen, we are so happy you were there to capture our day!

Leah photographed our wedding at my family's property in Napa Valley, June 2024. Leah took lots of time to scope out the location and seemed to be absolutely *everywhere* during the wedding, at all the right moments. I didn't have to call her over once, because she was already there. She captured the emotions of the day, the little moments, the big moments, and made our day look like the fairytale wedding that it felt like. Once we got the photo gallery back (so quickly!) we relived the day all over again. We were tearing up and laughing at all the photos. I felt like I was looking at photos from a Brides magazine, but it was me! Another thing I'll mention is that Leah gives direction in a kind, calm and encouraging way. My husband is not too confident in photos and he felt SO comfortable posing with her there, and loves his photos too! I felt like she could guide me into more flattering poses when I felt uncertain about my angles. I love Leah and her work and would recommend her to anyone!
