South Bend, IN
  • Videographer
  • Cinematic style

The joy and magic that fills weddings is one of my favorite things to photo and film. Getting to photo and film weddings is an excuse to constantly remember my own fairy tale wedding (which we used Zola to help plan!) Wedding photos and videos document your special day for posterity, but they also capture the beginning of your future together. Let me have the honor of photographing or videoing Chapter One of your happily ever after.

He is very creative and in tune with lighting to create very engaging images and videos. He is conscious of other vendors and gets along well with all of them. I will always recommend Adam!

The Armory 

5.0

South Bend, IN
  • Venue
  • Up to 500 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $2,500

From its historical beginnings as a stoic munitions depot, The Armory experienced a beautiful transformation to showcase a sophisticated ballroom, classy built-in bar and impressive commercial kitchen. Original element of the 1928 Armory construction and subsequent Newman Recreations Center were incorporated into the even space renovation to provide the perfect blend of past and present.Iron-barred doors used to secure armers and thick concrete walls reinforced with brick to accommodate the National Guard Armory and shooting range lend a rustic industrial aesthetic. Wood from the recreation center bleachers line the dramatic bar and the orginial hardwood floor was dressed up to grace the ballroom. The vaulted timber ceilings and exposed truss work allow the dazzling period chandeliers an opportunity to lend an air of elegance to the urban decor. Charm abounds in the union of classic architecture with a modern flair.

The Armory was absolutely the perfect venue for our August wedding. We got so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was! Megan served as our coordinator and she was amazingly organized, detail-oriented, and quick to respond to any questions we had throughout the process. She was also very flexible, willing to accommodate to our preferences, and work within our budget. Table decor, food, drink packages are all included which made coordinating the reception very easy.

Audrey Taylor Photography 

5.0

South Bend, IN
  • Photographer
  • Classic style

I'm Audrey Taylor wife, mom, photographer, baker, Coke Zero addict, Hufflepuff, and lover of all things Disney. Throughout my career I worked for large photography firms and privately doing all sort of photography from babies to seniors, weddings to 50th anniversary parties and everything else. I love being able to capture special moments for my clients. Please take the time to look around my site and social media to get to know my style, and always feel free to contact me with any questions.

Audrey was a rockstar! I generally don’t write reviews regardless of experience, but this review is so deserving. She was supposed to have a second photographer with her, but a medical issue occurred with that person and she had to come by herself. Even by herself, she nailed it! She didn’t miss anything and the pictures came out great! We couldn’t be happier with our entire experience and we highly recommend her.

I'm Katie Whitcomb. I am a classic wedding photographer based out of the Notre Dame, IN area. I stop in my tracks for a bright orange sunset, I'm obsessed with all tropical plants (seriously, my foyer is a jungle) and the feeling I get every time I walk into the Basilica of the Sacred Heart will never get old. Thank you for coming by. Let me know if I can do anything to help along the way.

Katie is the most amazing wedding photographer. She blows everyone else out of the water; it's not even close. She photographed my brother's Cape Cod wedding last summer and was so amazing that my family had to hire her for my Philly wedding this summer. She is professional, organized, and involved. She provides a wonderful timeline that sketches out your day in terms of photos. She keeps in touch often throughout the engagement process and helps you develop a vision of your wedding. She is kind and fun!!! She is a wonderful "cheerleader" to have with you on your big day in addition to being the best vendor ever. Then there's her photos. They are seriously gorgeous. They are timeless, classic, and romantic. She has developed a craft that is unmatched. All of my guests have been floored with the photos. Katie just the best!

Thank you so much for coming to my page. Photography has always been a passion of mine, but before photography I was a Firefighter/EMT and absolutely loved the career I was in. However, when my daughter was born, things quickly changed and I wanted to be able to stay home with my daughter and give my family the love and attention they deserve. Thats when I decided to go running full force with my photography business. Ever since then I have been capturing moments since 2021.

Mamas Lens Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, her communication was prompt, helpful, and passionate about capturing our special day. Dezaray has a true gift for documentary-style photography that freezes time and evokes the most emotional moments. Her amazing quality work made the day flow smoothly, as Dezaray provided a detailed timeline and coordination to keep us on track. We highly recommend booking Mamas Lens Photography for any wedding - you will not be disappointed with the incredible final photos that perfectly encapsulate the beauty and love of your celebration.
