Portraits by Sean was truly a blessing from the Lord for our wedding! Sean was professional, proactive, and communicative from the start, and approached our day with such care, kindness, and intentionality—it was clear he sees his work as a calling, not just a job. He’s not just a photographer—he’s a storytelling artist. He beautifully captured the love, joy, and sacredness of what God was doing in our covenant, and how special it was to share that day with our loved ones. His photos bring those moments back so vividly. He was flexible, kind, and truly a joy to work with. The quality of his work is unmatched—truly high-caliber. We thank God for him and will cherish these memories forever. Highly, highly recommend!

Sound Originals was beyond incredible for my wedding. I communicated to them that I wanted to add video a few months out from my wedding and it was a stress free process. My husband and I are a bit awkward when taking photos and my photographer and videographer were so great in helping us get comfortable and trying different poses that made us less awkward in front of the camera. They both helped keep the energy high all throughout the night and my only regret was not hiring them for longer to capture things that had happened after they left. My bridal party and guests were telling me how great my photographer and videographer were. I just got my photos back and they are exactly what I wanted; Moody, slightly editorial with some candid moments. I can’t recommend Sound Originals enough and I will be recommending them to friends and family that are in need of a photographer/videographer

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.

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photography experience. From the very beginning, AR Treasures was amazing to work with. Great communication, incredibly responsive, and attentive to every detail. Rachel made the entire process feel easy and stress-free, which was a blessing during such a busy time. Having two photographers was such a huge bonus. It allowed us to see so many different angles and moments from our big day… Now we get to look back on all of it for the rest of our lives and photos we can show our kids and grandkids one day. On the wedding day, everything felt seamless. She was calm, organized, and captured both the big moments and the small, meaningful details so naturally. We were also so impressed with how quickly we received our photos. We got sneak peeks the very next morning, and in under two weeks, our full gallery was ready. It was filled with beautifully and naturally edited images that truly reflect our perfect day. We’re absolutely in love with how everything turned out. We’ve received so many compliments from family and friends, and we’ll treasure these memories forever. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone talented, detail-oriented, and wonderful to work with!

While I've been photographing weddings for 20 years, my professional career began far from cameras. I created NPR's first satellite news stream and in 2006, after I left the NPR world, I fell in love with photographing weddings! I spent the majority of my wedding career in Washington DC, and relocated to Cleveland in 2023.

My husband and I could not recommend Andrew more highly. We were immediately struck by his unique documentary-style and engaging photography. From our first encounter with him, we were inspired by Andrew’s passion, creativity, whimsy, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Over our planing calls, we got to know one another well and build a vision for the day that Andrew executed above and beyond any hopes or expectations. He captured organic moments of joy, connection, reverence, and raw emotion that tell a story of our relationship and community, not just a highlight reel of posed moments. Prepared with jokes, candor, and some serious running shoes, his energy and warmth made him a huge hit with our guests - people are commenting on how wonderful he was weeks later. Look no further for your photographer!

Photos By Michael U

What started as a spontaneous purchase in 2019—a $50 camera from eBay—turned into a dream I now get to live every day. Not long after picking up that camera, I won an award, showed work in galleries, and was published. With years of encouragement from others, I eventually made the leap to full-time photography—and I’ve never looked back. Weddings are where everything I love about photography comes together. I get to witness and capture the best moments from every angle—those quick glances, bursts of laughter, and quiet emotions that pass in a heartbeat.

Photos By Michael U were the perfect wedding photographers for our special day. From the start, Michael was kind, and patient, taking the time to understand exactly what we wanted. His communication was specific and thoughtful, and he brought a beautiful, personalized experience to our wedding. The quality of his work was impeccable, and he provided great value at an affordable price. I didn't have to worry about a thing, as Michael thought of every detail and went above and beyond my expectations. We are thrilled with the gorgeous photos that perfectly captured the joy and love of our wedding day.

I am one of the lucky ones. I have been so fortunate to be able to turn my passion for photography + videography into a dream job. When I was exposed to the wedding industry after college (any Ohio University alumni out there?!), I INSTANTLY fell in love with capturing those once in a lifetime moments. That was 11 years ago and I have not put a camera down since.

Awarded Best of Zola
I seriously cannot recommend Meghan enough. From the moment we started working together, she made everything feel so easy and natural. We got to know her during our engagement session, and that made such a difference on the wedding day. It honestly made everything feel way more comfortable because we already had that connection going into it. Neither of us are super comfortable in front of a camera, but she made us feel relaxed and got the most beautiful, genuine photos. When we got our gallery back, we were honestly blown away. Every single photo is so beautiful, and she captured our day better than I could have imagined. The best part is that every single person who has seen our wedding photos has been in complete awe of them. We get so many compliments, and people constantly tell us how stunning they are. We will definitely be using Meghan for all of our future photo needs because she is just that good. If you’re looking for someone who is incredibly talented, organized, and truly cares about capturing your day, she is your person. These are photos we’ll treasure forever, and I’m so thankful we chose her.

I have always loved photography, people, and creating art. Weddings encompass all of that. There is nothing better than getting to know two people, learning their love story, and capturing the raw moments and emotion of one of the biggest days of their lives. I'm passionate (and perhaps a bit perfectionistic!) and I have photographed hundreds of weddings and portraits in Ohio since opening my business in 2011. I can't wait to see what comes next!

I have worked with Jen for the last few years within the photography business. She is by far one of the most empathetic and passionate photographers I have known. I enjoy capturing weddings along side Jen and watching her document the bride and grooms beautiful day. From “getting ready” photos to reception coverage, Jen always ensures that she captures every special moment for you. It’s truly a pleasure learning from one of the best!

With a degree in fine art, I have always been drawn to painting. Finding beauty in true life color and light in classic compositions, I choose to pick up a camera. After attending the Cleveland Institute of Art, I fell in love with documenting stories. Photography is about finding the beauty in story telling. Married to my handsome husband for 20 years, we have a outgoing theatre kid who has just started picking up a camera of their own.

Elizabeth was such a vital part of our whole wedding experience. She was incredibly easy to work with and listened to exactly what we wanted. When I told her my husband and myself were very intimidated by having our pictures taken professionally for the first time ever she understood and guided us with her expertise and knowledge. She showed patience and directed us with such kindness and ease. Our first round of pictures came back better than I could have ever dreamed of. Our wedding day was 8.8.26 and she was on site early and ready to go. She posted a few pictures to her socials and I know when they all come back im going to be at a loss for words just by what i have been able to see so far. I can not recommend her enough. She was amazing from the first phone call to the last shots of the night. I will absolutely call her for any other professional photos we need in the future.

Dragonfly Photography was an absolute dream to work with from start to finish. Finding the perfect photographer for our wedding was at the top of our priority list. We wanted timeless images, but more than that, we wanted to find someone who would make the process easy and be someone we would enjoy spending time with on our wedding day. Just a few minutes into speaking with Dragonfly's lead photographer, Oona, we instantly connected and knew that she and her team would be the perfect fit to capture our wedding day. Oona is such a kind and genuine person, and her calming presence and positive energy is infectious. From day one, she really took the time to get to know us and make us feel comfortable. Throughout the planning process, she went above and beyond, working with our other vendors behind the scenes to ensure every base was covered. During the months leading up to our wedding, she even sent us reminders, items to pack, timeline suggestions, and genuine messages of excitement for my husband and I over the course of the planning process. It was truly a top-notch experience . The Dragonfly photographers are rare wedding professionals who truly listen to what is most important to YOU, and true cheerleaders for your wants and needs for your day. We will always cherish the photographs they took of us and are honored to have their work lining the walls of our home for years to come. Dragonfly Photography is worth every penny, and my husband and I could never imagine not having them by our side on the most important day of our lives. If they are available on your date, book them immediately!!

Vitaliy Photography provided exceptional service for our wedding day. Vitaliy was extremely responsive and attentive during the planning process, answering all of our questions promptly. On the big day, he brought a fun, energetic presence while remaining focused on capturing artistic, professional photos. Vitaliy will go to great lengths for the perfect shot! A highlight was the 'Kodak moment' video package we purchased, where videographer Vlad compiled footage from the day into a same-day video for our guests. This video was then dispalyed at our reception and it blew our guests away! Every single person at our wedding was raving about it and so were we. It was wonderful to give our guests a glimpse into our wedding day. This will be a moment we will cherish forever ! Overall, we were thrilled with Vitaliy's photography services. His passion shines through in the beautiful, creative photos he delivers while also making the experience enjoyable.
