We carry this love for love into every wedding we photograph.

I cannot overstate how amazing Cara is. Her eye for detail and ability to preserve moments that perfectly capture personalities and relationships is like no other. She is also a pleasure to work with, not only helpful in the planning stages, but so friendly and unobtrusive during the shoot. I was worried about feeling self-conscious, but she put me completely at ease. She was my wedding photographer, and everyone has been thrilled with her pictures. But following her on Instagram, I've also seen the wonderful portraits she takes of families and children. Please check out the Instagram account for this business. Her work is just spectacular.

I am a graduate of Morehead State University (and have taken college photography courses). I'm an enneagram 7, a wife to an amazing man who always supported my dream to be a full time photographer, a goldendoodle mom to the sweetest girl, and am a travel enthusiast! I have been to over 20 countries; I love to travel and have awesome experiences (yes, I would love to travel for your wedding)! I am always busy and go on the go, but I wouldn't have it any other way!

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all, Katie goes above and beyond. Wedding planning is seriously so stressful, most definitely if you’re like me, because I didn’t know anything lol. Katie scheduled a free consultation with me to discuss the whole wedding day and certain pics I wanted. She made me an itinerary for the whole day and kept everyone on schedule, which was a huge blessing. She was there while we got ready early that morning, and stayed late to capture pictures while everyone was dancing that night. And even though she stayed late, she still gave me a wedding picture that SAME NIGHT! Katie is so friendly, like seriously you will leave your wedding with a new friend! She fit in with our families so well, which made taking pictures so much easier. I will forever be thankful that Katie was my wedding photographer and I will always cherish the pictures she took! If you are looking for a wedding photographer, then I highly recommend Katie. You will be guaranteed gorgeous pictures and a new friend!

Hey there! I'm Lindley Wilson! It's been a huge dream of mine to become a photographer, and a dream I put off for a very long time. So one day a handful of years ago I decided to go for it, bought myself a camera, and haven't looked back since! I am an Indianapolis based wedding photographer who absolutely loves capturing and getting to be a part of so many beautiful and exciting moments in the lives of others.

Imagery by Lindley stepped in & saved the day for my wedding photography! My 2020 wedding was falling apart in the midst of the pandemic & i was left without a photographer a week before the ceremony. Lindley happened to be available for my date. She showed up & was such a calming presence, so easy to work with, so comfortable to be in front of the camera for. She documented the day so beautiful & so perfectly & had a preview for me that same night! She’s become a great friend out of it & I couldn’t be more thankful. Stunning work that I couldn’t recommend more.

JMF Photography was born out of a deep-rooted passion for visual storytelling. My journey began with a simple yet powerful idea: to capture the beauty and emotion of life’s fleeting moments in a way that transcends time. It all started with photographing my children’s sports events, where I discovered my love for the craft. Recognizing the potential to freeze not just a scene, but the essence of a memory, a feeling, or a story, I decided to go back to school to hone my skills. Now, I photograph something almost daily, continually refining my art.

Our company has had the pleasure of working with James from JMF Photography on multiple occasions, and each experience has been exceptional. James consistently demonstrates a high level of professionalism and courtesy, ensuring that every event is captured beautifully, even under unique and challenging circumstances. James is always the first person I recommend when clients ask for a reliable and talented photographer. His ability to listen and understand our needs, combined with his skill in capturing the best shots in various settings, makes him an invaluable asset. I highly recommend James and JMF Photography for anyone seeking top-notch photography services.

Celebrating love is the best high for me, and getting to do this job where I not only see love, but see the connection, those free-spirit giggling moments, and those ugly real moments… that is what truly keeps my world spinning.

We just did an engagement shoot with Caroline and we love our photos!!! They are so amazing, I added one of my faves. It’s so clear in our results how amazing and creative she is at her job. It’s funny bc in the moment it can feel so awkward and unflattering and then I see the results and i’m amazed at how great they are and how beautiful I feel in each one.

Stephen James Films made the best wedding videos we could have imagined and we are so happy that we have the videos to last for the rest of our lives! We initially did not plan to hire a videographer for our wedding and I'm so happy we changed that mindset! We had conveniently met them at another wedding, just a few months prior while my husband was fascinated by their drone. We instantly connected and started chatting about the what if they came to our wedding. After seeing some of their previous videos, we knew we needed to have them come. Throughout planning, we kept them in the loop and got to know them more as we finalized the plans. Stephen and Rosie travel throughout the country and included a date night video in our package which we got to know them further and spend some fun time outside of wedding talk with them. This was such a unique offer and while it was only a 60sec video, the quality of what was produced from being on a date night with them really made us know we made the right decision. The videos from our wedding were quickly turned around and we have had multiple friends ask us for their contact. They got all the details and channeled our vision and vibes from the wedding to the videos.

Jason "Snorlax" Cun is an all around photographer that currently resides in Los Angeles, California. He was raised in the heart of Los Angeles, where he found his calling in photography. He aims to capture the beauty of the world and the people in them. He has recently begun his travels around the U.S capturing the life of those within that city.

Jason was recommended to me by a family member, and to this day, I'm so grateful. Jason was so quick with communication. He responded and asked for details from the very beginning. He was easy to talk to. We ended up booking him for our engagement photos AND our wedding photos. Our engagement photo session was seamless. Jason was easy to work with and he made my (now) husband and I feel so comfortable. Photo sessions do NOT have to be awkward with Jason. He recommended the LA Arboretum and the Pasadena City Hall for our shoot and we couldn't have asked for any better location. Jason knew exactly where to go and what to do. When it came time for our wedding day, Jason and Mae (his second) were so nice. They did not rush us for any photoshoot. He had us take our time, take breathers, and helped us stress about one less thing during the day. We just got our photos back and they are downright GORGEOUS. I could not believe these were us. I am still amazed by it all. The turnover time was so quick as well. Again, communication was so easy with him. I HIGHLY recommend Jason as a photographer. We could not have asked for anyone better.

One thing to know about me is that I truly am passionate about what I do, and I think that shows in my work. I love getting to know everyone's story and want to gift my couples with a film that truly captures their love. I have been filming weddings for 3 years but I knew I had a passion for filming long before I started this journey. I got my first camera in high school and used any excuse to film my friends or the places I traveled! It wasn't until my second year in college that I really started to pursue video as a career. I bought a few pieces of gear, and filmed my first wedding in April 2021!

Booked Grace last minute for our entire wedding weekend and it was the best decision ever. Grace traveled to our Colorado destination wedding and captured everything from Thursday- Saturday so perfectly, both on video and super 8 film; the results she delivered were absolutely gorgeous and reflective of her true artistic talent and unique style; I had countless people reach out to me for her contact information because they were stunned with how amazing the video and film content was. Aside from that, Grace was an absolute treat to work with, just the sweetest and kindest girl, super communicative, and worked very well with my photographer and other vendors. Can’t recommend her highly enough, and I am so thankful we found her and can now remember our weekend forever thanks to her talent.

Hi, I'm Lindsey! I fell in love with filming while taking a broadcasting class in high school and haven't been able to put down my camera since. I create fun and vibrant videos and photos for couples and companies who know how to have a good time!

Being a wedding vendor, I know quality when I see it. From her gorgeous wedding videos to how amazing she is with her clients, Lindsey and her team are amazing to work with. True professionalism and so much fun. Anytime we get to work together I am so excited about it and makes my wedding days so pleasant. Anytime I see her on my Itinerary, I know it’s going to be a creative and fun filled day. I can tell from the way her clients express their deep thanks to her after a wedding day, they really have had an amazing experience and then they rave about how amazing their videos turn out. She really captures the wedding day in such a beautiful and vibrant way, not to mention how much fun her couples had shines through. She really adds to the their wedding day and helps them feel at ease and really enjoy every moment. Can’t wait to work with her again!

My wedding wouldn't be the same without Ashley Ellis! For some background, I booked my wedding at Boondocks Barn & Lodge in Knightstown IN and it was HORRIBLE! The venue staff was so rude, there were flies EVERYWHERE on the grounds swarming us during our ceremony, and the day of coordinators skipped over special parts of my day such as my bouquet toss. When I think back on what my favorite part of my wedding day was... it was the times with my photographer. Ashley checked in with me throughout the day, and had an emergency kit on hand for anything I needed that I forgot to pack. My venue staff was stressing me out, but when I was alone with Ashley she would remind me that today was all about me and to smile and have fun, and it showed in my photos! During our private couples photos, it was so nice to escape the chaos of everything else and just be with my partner as my photographer captured moment of our love. The hour of private couples photos was honestly the BEST PART of our entire day! Not only did my photographer have to endure the abuse of my venue staff, but when we were running behind and would miss the time to capture photos of our sparklers, she stayed extra to make sure we captured all our special moments. She went above and beyond and was hands down the best part of my wedding experience! I will recommend her forever & always!!!! BOOK HER PLEASE!!! And your wedding photos and memories will be magical!

Standing in the checkout line at Lowes, I saw a sign that read, "Happiness is doing what you love." Tears started to well in my eyes as I checked out, dreading returning to work that following Monday. I'll never forget how grateful and nervous I was filming my first wedding, but I was happy, knowing I was doing what I was meant to do and what I loved to do. Now, having filmed over a hundred weddings in Lexington, Ky, and statewide, I have gained a wealth of knowledge on filming and telling your one-of-a-kind love story.

Kellie goes above and beyond in making sure your memories are beautifully preserved in film! When I watched my video with my husband, we cried all over again because she perfectly captured the parts we loved about our wedding! I highly recommend using KellieJoy Films for your wedding. She is professional, artistically in tune with your vision, and personable.

Shelley + Portugal

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Pekin, IN

Hey! We're Shelley + Portugal. We met on Instagram and fell in love over FaceTime. A shared interest in roadkill portraiture is what brought us together (it’s a funny story), but what compelled us to exchange numbers and talk every day for 3 months was the fact that we were both seeking the same things out of life. Nothing about our story is conventional (and it goes against every warning from our parents against Internet stranger danger) but despite the “what-ifs” and the long-distance logistics, we said yes. And in saying yes to something we couldn’t fully comprehend, we were unknowingly saying "yes" to a life full of adventure together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Shelley & Portugal as our photographers was the best (and easiest) decision we made in planning our wedding. First, they are both extremely talented. We fell in love with their portfolio when we were looking for possible wedding vendors and knew their style of photography and approach would mesh well with our wedding aesthetic. After seeing the photos, that was an understatement. They captured our wedding day so perfectly just just in the moments they captured but the actual feeling behind the pictures themselves. When looking for wedding photographers, we also wanted to make sure we were working with people who we felt comfortable with on a personal level, particularly since my husband and I *hate* being in front of a camera. Shelley & Portugal are such wonderful people; we loved getting to hang out with them on our wedding day and during our engagement photoshoot. We were able to be ourselves in front of them. Finally, it's worth noting how professional and "on top of things" Shelley & Portugal are. I never felt like I was in the dark at any point in our planning process. Honestly, Shelley helped me stay on track and helped me think about things related to our wedding that weren't at all on my radar. I also couldn't believe how quickly they were able to get us a sneak peak of our wedding photos (Monday, we got married on Saturday)! Shelley & Portugal also did our wedding album and wedding video which they did a beautiful job with as well. I know we'll be looking back on these two keepsakes for years and will be just as grateful for the work Shelley & Portugal put in to capturing our day as we are today.

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.
