Hey there! I'm Shelby. Think of me as your bestie with a camera. I'm a fun loving + candid inspired lifestyle photographer in Louisville, Kentucky who believes you deserve photos that look and feel like you. Working with me is like a hanging out with a close friend... I just happen to have my camera along for the ride!

We could not be more happy we chose Shelby as our wedding photographer. From the moment we met her, we loved her energy and passion. We chose a package that included an engagement shoot, which gave us amazing pictures and the chance to bond with Shelby before our wedding day. The engagement shoot and the wedding pictures are everything we wanted - Shelby really understood the vision and brought it to life. She was both easy to find and completely out of the spotlight on our day, which means we have the portraits we want and a ton of incredible candids of all of our favorite people celebrating with us - exactly what we were looking for. We absolutely loved sharing our day with Shelby. If you want a photographer with skill, vision, and personality, look no further - Shelby's the one.

Stephanie reached out to us after I posted about searching for a new wedding photographer. Our previous one had to cancel our contract on his end, and we were stuck without a photographer. I was already overwhelmed being back to square one, as picking the person capturing your big day is no easy task. Stephanie's example galleries showed me just how amazing her true-to-color, professional-quality photographs are. After opening our communication with her, it was a no brainer to sign her on! Since even before signing the contract, she has been so communicative and flexible. She creates insanely-detailed timelines and cares to note all of the important names for family photos and portraits. No stone goes unturned when it comes to her attention to detail, and as a fellow Type-A person, I highly valued that quality. My wedding gallery is also proof of this. So many moments and details of the wedding that my husband and I may have missed or were not present for were captured and included. It was a nice surprise for us when we initially opened our gallery. Stephanie also works very well alongside other vendors. I had a videographer on site who partnered up with her for the entirety of the day. They did a phenomenal job balancing out photo and video coverage and got along with our guests great! When we got our photos back, you could tell hard work and editing went into each one. So much emotion and movement were captured in such a way that allows us to relive our big day every time we look through them. I cannot recommend Stephanie enough for photos. She's truly a certified professional who's been in the business and knows her style. You will not be getting overly-filtered or whitewashed photos with her, she keeps her work colorful and in an "as-it-happened" style. Thanks to Stephanie, our photos will forever be a timeless memory of one of the biggest and happiest days of our lives.

Hi there! I'm born and raised in Louisville, KY and have taken my Bachelors degree in Photography into my photography business! I photograph everything from newborns to weddings, and even a 100th birthday party! I've loved every moment of every event, and I am thrilled to continue this for many more years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I would give Kyle a million stars if I could! Kyle was absolutely amazing in all ways. He is very professional, while also being personal. He was easy to book with and always easy to get a hold of if I had any questions. Kyle traveled to us to take engagement photos and also for our wedding. He is extremely reasonably priced and even made our cake and cupcakes for the wedding! One thing that really stood out to me was that he made picture taking fun! My husband especially hates getting his picture taken and specifically told me that he was so grateful that Kyle was our photographer because he actually enjoyed our photo shoots with him :) Overall we couldn't have asked for a better photographer to work with. 10/10 would recommend!

  • Photojournalistic style

  • Serves St. Matthews, KY

I'm a wedding, lifestyle, and portrait photographer servicing Louisville and Lexington, KY. I love love and I love capturing it more than anything. (Except for dogs. There's nothing on the planet I love more than dogs!) When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me curled up somewhere watching Parks and Recreation (again), or on a plane for a spontaneous trip. Traveling keeps my heart happy, so if you're looking for a photographer who is willing to travel for elopements, weddings, or engagements, I am your girl!

I accidentally stumbled upon Bethany on Zola while searching around for a photographer, and she turned out to be a hidden gem. My husband and I spent so many hours comparing photographers and we just kept coming back to her. We set up a phone call and then an in person meeting, we realized that we hesitated for no reason. She is THE BEST and is so easy to have a conversation with, we love her professionalism and all of the values that she stands for. We left each conversation with her feeling good and confident. She was kind and helpful on our wedding day and worked well with our family and other vendors. She made us feel so comfortable. We were absolutely blown away when we were able to see our photos. Our pictures turned out INCREDIBLE. Bethany continues to communicate well and even became a friend through the process and we are so grateful. Do not hesitate, you’ll definitely want to give her 5 stars too!

I’m a born and raised Kentucky girl who loves to travel, pet dogs, and listen to the rain. I love love and I can't wait to capture yours. When I'm not taking photos, you can find me reading something in the fantasy genre, listening to Taylor Swift, or surfing Pinterest.

Having Sydney as our wedding photographer was truly a gift. Her mind, creativity, vision, talent, and big heart will never cease to amaze me. Neither myself, my husband, or any of our friends or family have spent much time in front of a camera but Sydney made it feel like such a fun and natural process for all of us. She is such a kind hearted, charismatic, funny, personable person to have around and really did bring such an added light to our big day. From our first inquiry to the delivery of our photos, she was so on top of communication, took the time to understand our vision and what we were looking for and just made the whole process so simple and easy!! We will forever cherish our wedding photos and always be so glad that we chose Sydney as our photographer!

Hi! I'm a documentary-style wedding photographer and videographer in the Louisville, Kentucky area. Capturing genuine love, happiness, and awkward moments is my specialty. I give you space to be yourselves and document those in-between moments and let your personality as a couple shine through. Let's capture your story.

Awarded Best of Zola
Where to start, where to start… There are just so many good things I can say. Working with Adam was so refreshing, effortless, and fun! I’ll break down my review in a couple different areas. 1. Professional, but never stiff – Adam is a joy to work with. He has perfected the balance between professional but still lighthearted and fun. It’s all about the photos and the process, but yes, we will gab about Dungeons & Dragons in between photos. I felt the ease and comfort of working with a close friend, but the confidence and assurance of working with a seasoned professional. As someone who can be awkward in photos, this made all the difference, and I was able to relax and enjoy the wedding and know that I’m going to get good photos. 2. Personable – Again, I felt like I was working with a friend, but never in a way that I felt I wasn’t getting professional services. We can laugh, joke, and then discuss timelines and money in the same breath without issue. He took the time to get to know me and my wife and really cater our engagement session to represent us. We did a Dungeons & Dragons theme and it was so fun, especially because he totally understands and plays the game as well so it was great to geek out about it and get some fantastic photos. But you can easily tell he was genuinely interested in us and making this a perfect experience for us, not putting us into a mold that worked best for him. 3. Technical Ability – the photos really speak for themselves and his technical ability. His use of lighting, angles, focus, and catching those candid moments is amazing. You can just tell that he knows his way around his equipment and had created a seamless process for capturing an event. It really was seamless – while I was catching up with friends at the wedding, he’s setting up a photo station for those staged, family photos. He ushered all us in, got us set up, knocked out the photos, and then tore everything down and was back to the ceremony before I even realized I wanted him to get a photo of something else. I had the thought of “Oh, I want to get this” and boom, he’s already there. He had great ideas for photos, too, which was super helpful as I’m not really creative that way. As someone who needs a bit more direction in how to pose and facial expressions, Adam has a gentle, polite manner. But the fact that he took the time to say, “Hey, can you lift your chin a little?” or “Can you relax your shoulders just a tad?” was comforting because it shows he’s looking at the whole picture and thinking about how the client will feel about how they look in the picture. The little things that maybe seem “picky” or not “that important” can make all the difference, and he makes sure that the person in the photo is going to be their most flattering selves. So, yeah, 5/5 stars, thumbs up, would 100% recommend. Prices are fair and payment systems worked really well for us. I never felt like I would be cheated out of anything. I definitely got my money’s worth and then some. Turn-around time for photos was spot-on. I got married on 2/28/2021, and got a sneak-peek a few days later with polished, sharp, amazing photos.

I have been photographing as a hobby for over 15 years. Three years ago I took a job as an assistant for a Wedding Photographer and I was hooked. Starting out as an assistant I learned a lot about lighting and how to pose clients but also the importance of when to give couples their distance and let the moment happen naturally. A year later I started second shooting for other photographers and started branching out on my own. Now, 3 years later I have started my own business photographing weddings, boudoir, private bridal sessions and more. I love that creativity through the art of photography has not limits.

Wonderful experience!! Brittany helped me and my husband feel really special on our day! Turn around time on photos was lightening fast. We got so much positive feedback on our pictures, I immediately booked her again to take pictures of my parents for their 40th anniversary! She even bought them a gift. Very sweet, would use again!!

You may watch your wedding video once or twice throughout the years. What you will do is use, share and print your photos. My job is to retain the memory, and capture all those little moments you'll be too busy to see yourself, while documenting your special day. Giving you priceless moments and art you'll cherish for the rest of your life. I offer Photography (Some Video) services for any of your needs. I work with budgets.

We are so happy with Alan White Photograph! I can’t say enough about how professional AJ is and the quality of work that he provides. He took our engagement announcements and engagement party photos in Indiana, as well as our elopement in Colorado. He is very professional, creative, and personable. We will treasure our photos for years to come and will continue to use AJ in the future!!

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.

I want to intentionally & truthfully capture these good ol’ days, so you can have photos to look back on. The years go will on & the photos will get more precious with time. I love capturing weddings of all sizes: from the big wedding that celebrates the blending of two families and cultures. To the intimate backyard wedding or elopement wedding in Red River Gorge, Kentucky. I’ve been photographing weddings since 2015 and have been lucky to capture over 150 weddings since then. The couples I resonate with the most are the ones want their memories captured candidly as they naturally unfold.

Kendra was amazing to work with. First, she met with my sister and I to plan out the timeline of the wedding. She was incredibly receptive to ideas that we had and she was able to help us plan the day to make it all happen. On the day-of, even when I was still being sewn into my dress, she was sure to keep everything on time and keep us at ease. She is such a sweet soul and she made people who don’t like their photographs taken comfortable. Everyone was EXTREMELY pleased with the photographs she took. She is 1000% worth it.
