  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Shade, OH

Hello! I’m Hannah, a lifestyle and wedding photographer located in Central Ohio. A sucker for all things romantic, adventurous, and personal, I am here to convey those same things through your images. I have been on the other side of the camera for a period of time, and what I’ve learned is that you can’t “pose” the perfect image. A perfect image is created through raw moments, real laughter, authenticity, unique individuals, and a genuine experience. It is my job to deliver on that for every single couple, and I promise you I will!

Hi! I'm Emily! Mom to 3 kids, two rats named Frodo and Sam and a bearded dragon. I like my couples like I like my pets - just slightly unconventional. Dress fluffer, timeline-keeper, family wrangler, prone to squealing over a perfect ray of sunshine- I'll dance with your grandma, cry during your vows, and make you laugh at inappropriate moments. You're a badass and deserve the space to express yourself and your love EXACTLY as you are, no holds barred. Say goodbye to not knowing what to do with your hands, fake smiles in photos, and stiff posing that *just doesn't feel like you*. LGBTQIA+ and looking for a safe vendor? I gotchu!

Jenna Rosalie Photography

  • Serves Shade, 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.

Jenna is the most talented photographer and brings memories to life in her photos! She is flexible and knows how to navigate the wedding process in all aspects. Our pictures are beautiful and I am so happy Jenna was able to be the one to capture our wedding!

I am a professional photographer based in Ohio. I have always had a deep passion for photography, which began at the age of 12. Growing up in a small city in Poland, I nurtured this passion and further pursued it by attending and completing photo school in 2015. In late 2016, I moved to Ohio. In 2019, I started my photography business, turning my lifelong passion into a thriving profession. For me, photography is not just a job; it is a way of life. I pour my heart and soul into every project, ensuring that I capture your special moments exactly the way you envision them.

Joanna is a phenomenal photographer. We could not have found a better option for us. She focuses on our desires for photos but also is always excited to give her own ideas as well. She mixes posed photos with candid in a flawless way to produce the most beautiful photos. We also love how quick she is in her work and just captured our engagement and wedding day photos so seamlessly and gorgeously.

I am a self taught photographer. This journey started in 2013 as a stay-at-home mom with some young ones running around and an urge to dive into my creative side. It has since evolved beyond anything I ever thought it could. I genuinely love what I do and all of the connections I've made with all of the many amazing people I've worked with over the years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am not a colleague or friend of Ella Rose Photography (although it would be an honor to be friends with Michelle.) I am writing this review as a client. I fell in love with her style of photography a few years ago and booked her for my family's fall photos. Upon receiving my photo gallery I almost cried at how beautiful they were. That was when we were a family of five. Now we are a family of six, and have only gone back to Michelle for our photos. Not only is she kind and patient with my four children, but she has a way of capturing each one of their personalities with her lens and freezing that moment of time at their specific age that I can hold onto forever. You can definitely tell she's a mama. I would highly recommend (and have many times) Ella Rose Photography. Your photos will not just look like annual family photos on your wall, rather like fine art that will stand out amongst other family/wedding/etc. photos.

I cannot recommend Requiem Images enough. I randomly found them on Instagram when I was searching for an elopement photographer. Being a photographer myself, I am extremely particular and was a bit afraid I’d never find someone to live up to my expectations. Not only did kitty meet my expectations, she exceeded them. From start to finish, I was impressed with the professionalism and love that poured out of this amazing human. I am, per my own designation, an incredibly awkward subject. I’m used to hiding behind the camera, but Kitty made me feel so comfortable. I honestly can’t believe the images she was able to capture. Her attention to detail and ability to make people feel at ease are truly a gift. Not only did I use her for our elopement, but I also subsequently hired her for our family pictures, and then my own branding session. She has raw talent and an eye for the extraordinary. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Requiem Images to everyone I know (or don’t know!). Book them immediately. You will not regret it!!

Hello there!! I’m Courtney, owner of Courtney Ranes Photography. I have had my business for a little over 8 years now and I have loved every minute. I specialize in photographing any and every kind of love for any and everybody!! Love is love!!! I'm so grateful I have the chance to do something I truly love and I am really passionate about. If you are interested in my business at all just send me a message and I can send you my rates!

I seriously don't even know where to begin. Picking a photographer was one of the most important aspects for my spouse and I, and we met with at least a dozen different people to find the perfect fit. Picking Courtney was one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire wedding process. Courtney brings a professional and calm atmosphere to your wedding day. Couples: please remember that you will be spending almost your entire day with the photographer! Courtney's vibe was amazing. I did not feel rushed, I didn't feel anxious. She helped me keep on the timeline we set, but also left a ton of room for us working on our own schedule as the day/timeline naturally shifted. I was running late for makeup, first looks, etc. and she just let it happen as it happened, which I really appreciated. I was able to enjoy what was happening rather than worrying about a timeline that really didn't matter much. But, I also got the impression that if the timeline did really matter, she would make sure it happened. She really did an amazing job of matching our energy and both my spouse and I said we would be friends with her outside of the wedding! She is truly so, so, so amazing professionally and personally. Now, the photos! We both were crying within minutes of looking at them, with huge smiles on our faces. She really perfectly captured the day, in the moments getting ready, the ceremony itself, and the moments immediately after. The posed formal portraits were as important to us as the actual events, and she nailed it all. We are obsessed with our gallery and have an impossible task of deciding which photos to print! She stuck to her delivery timeline and we got the sneak peaks on the first day of our honeymoon, truly perfect timing. If you have any doubts about hiring Courtney, don't. We met with a lot of people who did not have experience with couples who looked like us. With Courtney, we did not feel like guinea pigs or like she wanted to work with us just to expand her portfolio to have a queer, plus sized wedding in an art museum (we definitely got this vibe from other photographers). She is truly a gem that Ohio is lucky to have.

HI there! My name is Natalie and I own Natalie Kathryn Photo! I love having the privilege to capture you on the best day of your life! I absolutely love weddings and being able to be there for every part of your day!

Wedding photos were such an important part in planning my wedding. I wanted to make sure I was investing in something high quality and would match the editing style my husband and I prefer. Natalie and her teams photos are just that. While she was who did all our final edits, she was not able to be present on my wedding day. Instead two girls who she works closely with did my wedding photos. I was a bit nervous about this at first but after working with Natalie I put full trust that her recommendations would not let me down. We are so thrilled with our sneak peaks and are so glad we trusted this team. Everyone was so great in making sure we got the posed photos we wanted but also capturing moments as they happened. Looking forward to receiving our full gallery. If anyone is looking for bright and romantic photos, look no further.

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.

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.

What if you could stop time and hold it in your hand? I heard that I could have superpowers when I was very young and that is when I knew I would become a photographer. Using an old girl scout camera found at a garage sale, my father taught me the rules of photography and composition. On weekends we would go for photo adventures. From old cemeteries to Civil War reenactments to Dawn at the Downs, we always had fun practicing photography. In high school, I took a newspaper class and learned how to develop photos in the darkroom. At college, I fell in love with art graphic design. Throughout my life, photography has always been there.

Brenda Pottinger, the woman behind Pottinger Photography and the camera, has an eye for beauty and detail. Her unique ability to capture the essence of the event and her attention to detail set her apart in the world of photography. Pottinger Photography has completed two styled shoots at The Landing at Brush Creek, and both times, we received stunning photos that highlighted the treed landscape and three-acre lake. Her indoor photography is equally impressive. She has an eye for color, decor, and light. Brenda is pleasant, creative, and energetic. Pottinger Photography captures precious moments and produces an upscale product. We highly recommend that they photograph all your special occasions.
