Kayley photographed my wedding in 2022 and was phenomenal. My husband and I are not photogenic people, but somehow she got us to take probably the best pictures we will ever take for the rest of our lives (which is good because, you know, wedding). She knew exactly how to walk us through making our pictures look natural and perfect, and is the best photographer I've ever worked with. It was never awkward or frustrating, as pictures usually are for us. She listened to exactly what I wanted and was an incredible friend and ally throughout the whole process. She worked so well with us and our families, caught little things that we never would have noticed, and photographed all the special moments with my family and friends at our reception that I either didn't see or want to remember forever. Kayley offered affordable packages, traveled to us for our wedding, and was entirely professional and accomodating. I love my pictures and will cherish them forever. Thank you, Kayley!!

As a documentary-style photographer, I truly believe that the essence of life is captured in the unscripted, candid moments that often go unnoticed-- Each click of my camera is more than just a snapshot; it’s an opportunity to freeze time and preserve the love, joy, and uniqueness of your moments for generations to come.

Awarded Best of Zola
My newly minted husband and I were over the moon from the initial contact with Anna Elisabeth. She is an excellent listener with a superb sense of capturing our wishes in her photographs. We had an unusual experience in that we wanted to capture both of our faith traditions on different days and different geographical areas in the same state. Anna Elisabeth professionally and respectfully photographically savored these traditions beautifully with her photographic gift. She was present and her presence was professionally and discretely demonstrated. Her keen sense of recording precious moments was one of storybooks.. from having the pictures of the bride's mother place, her once veil (when the mother was married 57 years ago) to having the groom's mother putting a family heirloom bracelet on to capturing the special wink given by the groom when he first saw the bride walking down the aisle with her father. All these moments were special at the time and Anna Elisabeth captured them beautifully and discretely. Communication is very important to us, and Anna Elisabeth was professional, prompt and demonstrated honest integrity throughout the entire process. We are providing her a 5 star rating but she is off the charts and anyone who uses her will understand why she should be rated a 10!

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.

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.

Kyle shot the wedding of a close friend of mine - I remember being so impressed with his creativity & initiative that when it came time to start planning my wedding, he was my list. My husband and I are not photogenic and hate being in front of the camera, but Kyle has a very calming presence that puts you so at ease! He photographed our pandemic elopement and our one year anniversary micro vow renewal - our plans changed a lot as the pandemic changed but Kyle always replied quickly and was always professional and understanding. Kyle is so, so talented and so, so creative and it shows in his work - the shots are always gorgeous! He is an absolute dream to work with! So much of a dream that our family ended up booking him for a sibling’s wedding and we have more plans to keep being repeat customers! Kyle is the best!

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!

Bethany was the absolute best photographer we could have asked for!!!! She shot our engagement photos and wedding photos for one amazing price! She was so easy to work with and has such an eye for photography. Bethany made the whole process so easy and fun! She did a walk through at our venue before the wedding to see lighting and the best photo spots. She got to know us as a couple and really captured our personalities through her photos. She puts her heart and soul into her photography and it shows!!!! My husband and I cannot say enough good things about her and her work. We’d choose her again in a heart beat!

Based out of Kentucky, serving clients in the local area and beyond! I started photography in 2010 and took my business full-time in 2019. With more than 100 weddings under my belt, I would love to be considered to be a part of your special day! Please submit a contact form to inquire and we'll create a custom package for you! I love to capture the unique moments that every wedding includes, but also the sweet special moments that are unique to you and your fiancé! I love a warm documentary style with a mix of traditional.

Andrea did a photo shoot for my husband and myself for our engagement, I told her my vision and she went above and beyond to bring it to life. The photos turned out beautiful. At this time we already had a deposit down on our wedding photographer, had I not already paid the non-refundable deposit I would have had her shoot my wedding in a heart beat! She’s amazing!

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.

Hi, I'm Halie Vertrees. A published Wedding and Lifestyle photographer serving KY + beyond! I take pride in capturing emotion-filled, timeless, light, and colorful images. Over the years I have become a personal hype-woman, professional dress fluffier, and teary-eyed Father and Daughter Dance photog all while capturing candid moments of your wedding day.

From the moment we met Halie for our initial consultation, my husband and I knew she would be the perfect photographer to capture our wedding day. Halie was incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, always responding promptly to our questions and making us feel like her top priority. On the day of the wedding, Halie's energy and excitement matched our own - she was a true joy to work with and made the experience so much fun. The quality of Halie's work is simply the absolute best. She managed to capture every single important moment, as well as so many beautiful, unexpected details that we would have otherwise missed in the whirlwind of the day. Halie's keen eye and talent truly shone through in our stunning wedding photos. We are beyond grateful to have found Halie and cannot recommend her highly enough to any couple looking for a caring, personable, and incredibly skilled photographer to help make their special day unforgettable.

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!!

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.

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.

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.

It all started when… We met. 12 years ago. We were 16. I was an artist. Cody was a rebel. A million things have changed since then, Ups and downs, loops, twists, and turns. We are different people now and I would rather tell you about who we are… We started our family young and had a gorgeous little girl. Since then we have gained a small zoo of 7 pets.

I loved Jenna and her husband were wonderful!! They made taking the pictures so easy, they stuck with us when we climbed down a mountain in the dark, and they were the most easy laid back people to work with! If I had questions, she would answer in a timely manner as well! I really appreciate everything that she did and our engagement and preview photos are everything that I would want and more! I would hire her again and again.
