I present fun, elegant, and exciting Wedding Photography for my clients. My style is photojournalistic; I feel it's the most effective way to tell a story. After all, there is so much happening on a wedding day. Between the ceremony, dancing, and endless extravaganzas, the most memorable moments will naturally occur.  My goal is to capture the emotions and memories of your day through my lens. These recollections are your forever keepsakes, a chapter of your life's story. Every image accounts for those who were by your side, delighted for you, and the next step in your journey. I appreciate you for giving me a few moments of your time.t

From our first interaction, Sean and his team at Portraits By Sean were prompt, personable, and clear in their communication. Their exceptional, professional, and quick work captured the essence of our special day perfectly. Sean was laid back and brought great energy to our wedding, seamlessly capturing all the important moments without ever being intrusive. We had nothing but a positive and truly exceptional experience working with Sean from start to finish. Not only were our photos top-notch, but he took the time to get to know us as a couple and was able to beautifully document all the candid, unscripted moments that made our wedding day so memorable. I'd give Sean 10 stars if I could!

I started photography in 2017 and after being a part of many weddings, engagements, and family sessions, I still love what I do and I am deeply dedicated to serving my clients. I consider myself a storyteller and love capturing the little details, the half-smiles, and the simple motions. For me, it is about seeing the real, the lovely, and the messy moments, the everyday magic that tells the stories of our lives. Each wedding and session has its own unique story to tell and I challenge myself to capture those stories through my camera as best as I can and would be honored to capture yours too!

Eugene was absolutely fantastic to work with! From the moment we met him, he made us feel comfortable and at ease. He has a wonderful ability to capture those natural, candid moments, and his style really allowed us to be ourselves. There was no awkwardness at all—just genuine joy and connection throughout the day. Our photos turned out beautifully. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding in Asheville NC!

Having been a bridesmaid in a wedding captured by Franzetti Photography, I knew immediately I wanted Michelle and Nick to be the ones to photograph our wedding. The whole process from start to finish was so fun and stress-free. They go above and beyond at every single step of the process. Michelle was an absolute life-saver when it came to our wedding day timeline. She answered every question I had and our wedding day went so smoothly, almost exclusively thanks to her work on our timeline. Our photos are better than I could have ever imagined. They captured our day perfectly and I am so thankful to have so many amazing memories from our wedding day captured. I can not recommend them enough, they were the perfect addition to our wedding day and absolutely amazing in every way.

I am creating your new family's first heirloom that you will pass on to your grandchildren!

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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 can't say enough good things! We're not a couple who takes a ton of photos of ourselves, but she was able to help us get comfortable in front of the camera for both our engagement photos and wedding photos. She captured every important moment at our wedding including some incredible candids. I would highly recommend Bethany Stacy Photography (and have already told everyone I know who is engaged) because she not only is a great photographer but she is such a people person it's hard not to have a good time!

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
Photography was the biggest stressor for me because I really needed someone who made us feel comfortable and relaxed the whole day. Kyle is the whole package: very professional, but incredibly friendly and makes you feel at ease so you don’t look stiff or have a forced smile in every posed photo. Communication leading up to our wedding was also great - he even came out to the venue with us to walk through locations. The sneak peeks came the following afternoon and there was a lot of them! It was great to be able to show people photos from our wedding the day after and anticipate the full album, which took us hours to look at when it arrived because of the sheer number of photos we received. One of the best things was how many photos we have of our friends and family at the reception - everyone has loved having a picture of them having a good time with us. We love going back and looking at these photos now, and can’t wait to put our album together.

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.

First of all, Katie goes above and beyond. Wedding planning is seriously so stressful, most definitely if you’re like me, because I didn’t know anything lol. Katie scheduled a free consultation with me to discuss the whole wedding day and certain pics I wanted. She made me an itinerary for the whole day and kept everyone on schedule, which was a huge blessing. She was there while we got ready early that morning, and stayed late to capture pictures while everyone was dancing that night. And even though she stayed late, she still gave me a wedding picture that SAME NIGHT! Katie is so friendly, like seriously you will leave your wedding with a new friend! She fit in with our families so well, which made taking pictures so much easier. I will forever be thankful that Katie was my wedding photographer and I will always cherish the pictures she took! If you are looking for a wedding photographer, then I highly recommend Katie. You will be guaranteed gorgeous pictures and a new friend!

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.

Not just the main things like first dance, cake cutting etc. But she was always on the lookout for those candid moments among guests and families. She was a pleasure to work with as a vendor and I can’t wait to work with her again!

There’s something to be said about understanding another person. Sometimes you experience it in conversation. You know the feeling: interactions that leave you and that other person thinking, wow; we just said the Exact. Same. Thing. But if you’re lucky it’ll go deeper; understanding that person so much that you begin to anticipate what they may say or do. It's what makes our partnership so strong. As brothers, we understand each other, and we feel it shows in our work. But our greatest joy comes from sharing our work with you. To have all the memories of your day come flooding back to you in waves is magical, and it never gets old.

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!!

Christora and Chris were absolutely perfect for our wedding! Their communication from the initial contact through the delivery of our final photos was prompt, clear, and friendly. We truly felt like a priority to them. The quality and artistry of the photos is immaculate - they perfectly captured the joy and magic of our special day. They both went above and beyond to scout locations, coordinate group shots, and catch candid moments. We couldn't be happier with both the experience of working with Green Apple and the gorgeous final product we now have to cherish our memories. One million percent recommend!

Every day I get to meet new and unique people who allow me to join them & to capture the most intimate and emotional moments of their lives. I seek couples who have wandering hearts and adventuring souls, Catching that closeness between two people completely in love. The way your hands fit together, the laughter, the way you hold on to each other.. That kind of chemistry, that’s what makes my job so much better, I get to be the one witnesses it, and saves it. I’ll shoot that kind of love all day and twice on a Sunday.

Ashton really is such a great photographer & person. She made it so easy to be comfortable in front of her and her camera. Doing the boudoir shoot with her was not easy for me, but she made it easy. Didn’t even think twice about what I was wearing lol she made my husband and I so comfortable, really listened to what we wanted and captured our wedding day/relationship perfectly. Looking at our wedding albums seriously looks like we’re watching a movie of the day. So many candid effortless pictures. She caught the emotion, the fun, the ugly, the love, the happiness. EVERYTHING. Ashton pays attention to the details, she has your back, most importantly she makes you feel comfortable. I will 100% be booking her for future family portraits. As long as she’s a photographer, she’ll my photographer. Thank you Ashton for capturing all of our special moments.

Shelley + Portugal

Bowling Green, KY

Hey! We're Shelley + Portugal. We met on Instagram and fell in love over FaceTime. A shared interest in roadkill portraiture is what brought us together (it’s a funny story), but what compelled us to exchange numbers and talk every day for 3 months was the fact that we were both seeking the same things out of life. Nothing about our story is conventional (and it goes against every warning from our parents against Internet stranger danger) but despite the “what-ifs” and the long-distance logistics, we said yes. And in saying yes to something we couldn’t fully comprehend, we were unknowingly saying "yes" to a life full of adventure together.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring Shelley & Portugal as our photographers was the best (and easiest) decision we made in planning our wedding. First, they are both extremely talented. We fell in love with their portfolio when we were looking for possible wedding vendors and knew their style of photography and approach would mesh well with our wedding aesthetic. After seeing the photos, that was an understatement. They captured our wedding day so perfectly just just in the moments they captured but the actual feeling behind the pictures themselves. When looking for wedding photographers, we also wanted to make sure we were working with people who we felt comfortable with on a personal level, particularly since my husband and I *hate* being in front of a camera. Shelley & Portugal are such wonderful people; we loved getting to hang out with them on our wedding day and during our engagement photoshoot. We were able to be ourselves in front of them. Finally, it's worth noting how professional and "on top of things" Shelley & Portugal are. I never felt like I was in the dark at any point in our planning process. Honestly, Shelley helped me stay on track and helped me think about things related to our wedding that weren't at all on my radar. I also couldn't believe how quickly they were able to get us a sneak peak of our wedding photos (Monday, we got married on Saturday)! Shelley & Portugal also did our wedding album and wedding video which they did a beautiful job with as well. I know we'll be looking back on these two keepsakes for years and will be just as grateful for the work Shelley & Portugal put in to capturing our day as we are today.

I have been in the wedding industry for going on three years now! It is where I have found my true passion. I am a mother, a wife, and a hopeless romantic! While I am an Ohio photographer, I also LOVE to travel for weddings as well. While I photograph a little bit of everything, my specialties are weddings, boudoir, couples, and maternity. I am the perfect photographer to grow with your family!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can’t say enough good things about working with Elizabeth Gardner Photography! We had to put together our wedding in just a couple days because of a severe illness in my family, and I truly didn’t even think we would find a photographer. But once we got connected with Elizabeth, she went above and beyond to make sure our day was captured in the most beautiful ways. She was so wonderful to work with: easygoing, attentive, and caring. She thought of things we hadn’t even had a chance to consider, and though we had so little time to prepare, she was right there with us every step of the way. And the outcome was STUNNING. We couldn’t be more pleased with our photos! She helped give me a full wedding experience when I didn’t think it would be possible.

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.
