10/5 STARS A MUST BOOK ********** I simply don’t know if I can put into words how amazing of an experience we had using Eileen as our photographer. She captured our engagement photos and did such an amazing job I was so excited to see how the wedding photos came out - when I tell you she CRUSHED this entire gallery I have never been more serious. The sheer volume of photos is incredible but the meticulous attention to detail and care she took editing every single photo is truly mind blowing. I don’t even know where to begin posting these because I wish I could post every single one. Every time I look at these pictures I remember every emotion I felt on our wedding day and that’s a true blessing and a gift to be able to give people those feelings and relive their most special moments through your work. Eileen takes the time to get to know you on more than just a surface level, she has become a friend since I first reached out to book her and I truly cannot imagine having had anyone else capture our special moments. She is super responsive, thorough, listens to what YOU want and makes it happen, she’s kind and friendly and will make you feel relaxed and comfortable no matter the situation. You can trust her wholeheartedly with your photo needs. I’m not someone who usually likes to get pictures taken of me and I’m always hypercritical of myself in photos but I honestly looked forward to our sessions with Eileen and love every single photo she took. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone in need of a professional photographer. A 10/10 friend, an 11/10 photg, a 12/10 human being - she is a true gem all the way around. Book her now because she books up quick, I PROMISE you will never regret it!!

I have been in the wedding business for over 10 year with owning a day of and rental business first!

I am newly married , my husband is my second shooter! I have had the opportunity to meet so many amazing couples a lot who have become friends. We love to capture moments in time, the candid shots that show the love in the air that day. We preserve them in time. We have grown our team to include Michaela as an Associate Photographer.

Natalie and her husband were so kind to us from the engagement session to wedding day. They had us laughing and finding ways to make us comfortable posing for the camera. We have some amazing styled and candid photos from both sessions. The work was incredible and the online portal for accessing the images is very easy to use. Wonderful photos and kind people is the best way to describe them. I highly recommend booking with them you will not regret it.

We are Cynthia and Rich Davis, the husband and wife duo behind Cyn Davis Photography. Based in Steubenville, OH, we will go just about anywhere to find adventure.

Through every worst of times, we've grown stronger, fallen deeper in love, and found the best of times. We believe communication, selflessness, and laughter are vital in keeping the romance burning.

Cindy and Rick capture the most beautiful photos of my daughter’s recent wedding. They took time to make sure every shot was perfect. They caught every special moments and the candid photos I’m sure will help us remember special moments and special people. I don’t think my daughter and new son in law could have picked a more perfect photographer .

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!

They brought our day to life through photos- which was extra meaningful because we did not have a videographer. We were so appreciative when they took our disposable cameras and developed the photos, seamlessly integrating them into our online album.
