My partner and I hired Sean for our engagement photos and we were extremely impressed! He was super helpful in helping us pose and very skilled in the ways he used lighting to capture our best features. He captured really genuine moments with such skill. He also made sure the job was well done and he got all the photos that we could have wanted. We had a blast working with him! The photos are stunning and I genuinely can’t stop looking at them! My partner and I tend to feel awkward getting our picture taken but Sean created such a comfortable space for us. We would highly recommend booking Sean.

Jenna Rosalie Photography

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Thurston, 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!

As for my story; I married my soulmate in 2016 and we have three kids, way too many fuzzy blankets, and lots of adventures. We live in central Ohio and my daily life consists of raising my little humans and attempting to grow housplants. I love sweet tea, being barefoot, poetry, the mountains and the ocean, all things handcrafted, and aspiring to be a hippie. I strive for my photography to capture those little moments you want to remember. I focus on the emotions and interactions between you and the people you love. I want to give you pictures you hang on your walls and pass down for generations.

Loves musicals, cinnamon rolls + fun socks 🧦 What if you had a photographer who was just as excited as you were about your wedding day? Someone who went above and beyond to make your entire wedding planning journey stress-free and, dare I say it, FUN?! ...and what if you had such a great time with your wedding photographer, that you knew she'd be your photographer for life, for your legacy? Weddings are literally my favorite thing. I love every detail, every moment, and every person that I cross paths with. So when my couples show me they love fiercely, I want to serve them by showing them in a beautiful way what that looks like.

Ashley had photographed my best friends wedding a few years ago and her work and personality was amazing ! I had to book her for our wedding immediately. She was one of our first vendors secured. Not only were the moments beautiful she was so approachable and made everyone in our wedding feel so comfortable. My husband and I don’t take a lot of photos, but Ashley made it feel so natural and we felt we were able to capture raw real moments. As a bride I didn’t realize how much time you spend with your photographer. I’m so glad I had Ashley by my side. She was double checking for fly away, adjusting my jewelry, just little things that you don’t really think of that really made my day easy. I cannot thank her enough for making our day even more special. Do yourself a favor and book her now!! Our family loved her and we hope to see her soon again for a mini shoot of some kind. Thank you Ashley!!

She treated my mom like a brand new bride and took warm flattering photos of the event. She really captured the informal and formal well.

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!

Hi! My name is Steve. I do visual storytelling. I’m married with three kids and in my spare time I record music and build things. I've been filming and photographing weddings since 2009. I love travel and getting to know unique couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Steven and his team to do our wedding photos and videography. I really wanted a photographer that could capture the soul of the event, and Steven did exactly that. His photos are full of life, and I shared so many portraits with guests that actually got printed out or posted online. If you're looking for hundreds of photos of your wedding party that look exactly the same and for every planned second to be documented, Steven is not your person. If you're looking to hit the big moments but focus on capturing raw moments with timeless photos to get framed, I couldn't recommend them more. I never thought I would get a wedding video because it always seemed cheesy to me. But after watching examples of his work I fell absolutely in love with his videos. I've honestly had a hard time watching ours because it evokes so much emotion. Steven was collaborative and willing to go with the flow. We gave him the difficult task of being prepared for 3 different locations with totally differing lighting (indoor/outdoor plus shooting from high sun into the night). He puts an immense amount of care into his work and the photos are truly art that we will cherish forever. If there are specific things you want covered, be sure to share a list. When it comes to capturing the moments that can't be planned, he is on the case!

This is all a dream. In 2019 I bought a $50 camera off ebay just because. Almost immediately I won an award, started participating in galleries, and was published. After a few years of being encouraged by others, I made the decision to go full time. There's a lot of special moments when I photograph weddings and I get to be in best positions to see everything from every angle.

Photos By Michael U was a fantastic wedding photographer to work with. Their communication was always professional and they responded swiftly to any questions or requests. The quality of their work was extremely high, showcasing their talent and unique style. They produced amazing, show-stopping photography that captured the highlights of our special day perfectly.
