These ladies are phenomenal! We hired them for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made for our day. From our first chat over zoom, we knew instantly that we could trust them and that they would capture us, not just a one-size-fits-all deal. They truly capture each couple in their own unique way and you can tell just by looking at their work. I’m so glad we did an engagement shoot first, because it got all the nerves out for us and we got to build more of a relationship with them before our day. We are not people who like being in front of cameras, but their enthusiasm and professionalism put us, especially me, at instant ease! The photos turned out great even with it being an unforcasted rainy and unusually hot fall day. And the wedding, holy moly! They had to wrangle all sorts of family dynamics and chaos while still taking beautiful photos in the rain. Not sure how that happened, but they made it all seem so easy and we had so much fun with them! We didn’t have to worry about a thing! …Not one thing! We received our first look photos in no time after the wedding and we are in love already. Can’t wait to see the rest! We will definitely be contacting them again in the future. Wherever you are in your photographer search (and reading reviews like this), just stop and set up a chat now. You will not be disappointed!

Ella Rose Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,100
  • Serves Painesville, OH

I am a self taught photographer. This journey started in 2013 as a stay-at-home mom with some young ones running around and an urge to dive into my creative side. It has since evolved beyond anything I ever thought it could. I genuinely love what I do and all of the connections I've made with all of the many amazing people I've worked with over the years.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am not a colleague or friend of Ella Rose Photography (although it would be an honor to be friends with Michelle.) I am writing this review as a client. I fell in love with her style of photography a few years ago and booked her for my family's fall photos. Upon receiving my photo gallery I almost cried at how beautiful they were. That was when we were a family of five. Now we are a family of six, and have only gone back to Michelle for our photos. Not only is she kind and patient with my four children, but she has a way of capturing each one of their personalities with her lens and freezing that moment of time at their specific age that I can hold onto forever. You can definitely tell she's a mama. I would highly recommend (and have many times) Ella Rose Photography. Your photos will not just look like annual family photos on your wall, rather like fine art that will stand out amongst other family/wedding/etc. photos.

Brittaney from Brittaney Brandt Photography was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding photography. She was attentive, professional, and personable throughout the entire planning process. She went above and beyond to capture all the special moments and important details of our big day. Even though I don't normally enjoy having my photo taken, Brittaney made me feel totally comfortable and at ease in front of the camera. More than just a vendor, Brittaney felt like a friend documenting our memories. The value of her artistic photography paired with the personalized care she provides is truly unmatched.

I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

From the very first interaction, the team at Once Like a Spark Wedding Co. was incredibly responsive, patient, and detailed in their communication with us. On our wedding day, their incredible attention to detail was evident in the stunning photos they captured. They were constantly checking in with us throughout the reception to make sure we were getting all the shots we wanted. As a couple who isn't always comfortable in front of the camera, Mario made us feel at ease and was able to create the exact type of photos we had envisioned. Our wedding day was truly unforgettable, and we have Once Like a Spark to thank for preserving those memories so beautifully. We would absolutely recommend them to any couple planning their big day!

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 there! I’m Amanda. A passionate photographer from Trumbull county, Ohio! My photography journey began back in my junior year of high school in 2015, and since then, I’ve developed a deep love for working with families and little kids to capture life’s greatest moments and biggest milestones. There’s something truly magical about freezing those special memories in time for my clients to cherish forever.

From our first interaction, AMJ Photography blew us away with their amazing communication and responsiveness. Amanda and her team were a true pleasure to work with, making the entire process seamless and enjoyable. The quality of their work was also simply amazing - the photos they captured of our special day are truly stunning and we could not be happier with the results. Amanda and her team went above and beyond, helping to make our wedding day perfect in every way. We cannot recommend AMJ Photography highly enough to any couple looking for an exceptional photography experience.

Brian and Joelle are amazing photographers and people to work with! They really understand the meaning of your wedding day and are there not just to capture pictures but to also make sure the day goes smoothly for the bride/groom. They helped create a realistic and great timeline, captured every moment throughout the day, and assisted the bride/groom with anything they could have needed. They are very experienced and have their method to getting as many pictures as possible without taking a lot of time out of the day. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a photographer 10 out of 10 times!! Pictures came back incredibly fast as well and all looked beautiful!

Hey!! I'm Eden :) I am a documentary style wedding photographer who loves the unique, thoughtful weddings where people do what's true to them. I love my work to be a collaboration of ideas between me and my couples to create something truly special and meaningful to them. All of my best friends are past brides and fellow photographers, and I love getting to share in such an important season with so many amazing people every year. I've been diving into shooting film photos the past few years and love the element it adds to a final wedding gallery as well. I love getting to know who people are and letting that shine through the photos.

Eden is seriously absolutely amazing! She makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you get the best poses! I sent her poses that we liked from Pinterest and she had them ready on her phone for the wedding! I love her style of editing, she’s SO NICE, so easy to get ahold of, and she got our wedding sneak peeks back to us at midnight... the same night of our wedding!! Her husband Mitch does videos so if you want a great photo/video package, they are perfect to work with. I could not recommend her and her husband enough!

Hi :) I have a background in social work so am used to walking into all kinds of situations and interacting with all sorts of people. I now have my dream job as a wedding photographer where I get to capture people's very best moments!!! Not only do I love capturing those candid moments but I also enjoy guiding loved ones through interacting together to come up with more natural moments to capture actual good times! To help the day run as smoothly as possible we also send out a wedding photography survey going over times and shot details to make sure we are on the same page ahead of time, with wanted poses on this list as well.

They are the sweetest folks to work with. We had always wanted a video package but could not find an affordable option. Billy and Miss Cheryl did BOTH! We got photos and videos for two days and they even live streamed our wedding to our family overseas. Billy's photos are insane gorgeous and Cheryl's video captured everything we had dreamed of. I highly recommend them to everyoone wanting a amazing wedding.

Comfort Photography

My name is Comfort and I am a Columbus based photographer who loves photographing real people being themselves! My style is authentic, vibrant and fun, and I pride myself in my ability to capture the spirit of every person and event that I photograph. The comment I hear most from my couples is that I am a calming presence on their wedding day and that my name is very fitting. Helping your wedding day run smoothly is just as important to me as capturing beautiful photographs for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Comfort is the best photographer we could've ever asked for. 5 out of 5 stars isn't enough. From the day we booked her it was truly a joy every step of the way. We dealt with numerous vendors and the best part about working with Comfort is how personable she was. It never felt uncomfortable or awkward and we looked forward to every interaction. As a person who doesn't love planned photo's she made it EASY and natural. Just allowed us to be ourselves and the photos are better than we ever imagined. On our big day she helped things run so smoothly to the point where it all felt perfect. I was highly stressed that we would be pulled in so many directions that it would be hard to balance BUT Comfort came with a plan and by the end of the night we didn't have 1 hiccup or issue. I Couldn't recommend Comfort Photography more. If we ever have the need for a photographer again we know exactly who we will be booking. Looking forward to that day.

Hi, I’m Kirsten, the creative heart behind Kirsten Wray Photography! Since 2008, KWP has been capturing life’s most amazing moments, right here in Indianapolis and beyond. After earning my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Ball State University, I followed my passion for photography to the vibrant city of Indy, where I’ve been telling stories through my lens ever since. Whether it's local events or adventures across the globe, I’m all about creating stunning, authentic images for my incredible clients. Let’s make magic together!

Kirsten Wray Photography was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Kirsten's communication style was direct, effective, and genuinely sweet - she immediately put us at ease as a couple who doesn't usually love being in front of the camera. Despite having a huge family that was challenging to wrangle, Kirsten was professional, prompt, and thorough in getting all the group shots we wanted. The finished photos are of excellent quality and editing, capturing all the special moments of our day in a way that exceeds our expectations. Kirsten went above and beyond to deliver amazing photos, and we couldn't be happier with the results. We highly recommend Kirsten Wray Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.

Our couples come to us seeking a cozy space to show up authentically and be their most unguarded selves. As photographers and videographers, we celebrate the depths and layers to your story, crafting keepsakes that transport you through every emotion and moment. We’re always seeking the extraordinary in the ordinary and honoring the perfectly imperfect – everything that makes your love so undeniably yours.

My fiance and I did a photo shoot (with our pups) with Sarah and she made it an INCREDIBLE experience. She had us laughing, she cheered us on, posed us in ADORABLE ways we've never been posed before, but most importantly caught a lot of "in the moment" shots which end up being the best! Sarah is creative, kind, optimistic, talented, and treats all her clients like they're a member of her family. She goes out of her way to make sure your pictures are everything you want them and more, and is incredibly resourceful with location suggestions. I cannot wait to work with her again in the near future!
