“We used Complete Weddings for photo, video, and DJ. All three did not disappoint. It started with Jordan when we made the decision to book with them. He was so kind, helpful, and explained everything so well. He was also available for all the questions throughout the whole planning process and was quick to respond. Our photographer, Sarah, did our engagement and wedding photos. She scoped out the best spots for our engagment photos, even with rain earlier in the day. She brought so much energy and flexibility. On our wedding day, she helped stay on time, brought the same energy, and captured all our favorite moments with all our favorite people. She also went to look at the venue and picture locations prior, which was so helpful! Rebecca, our second photographer, was so kind and got all the shots Sarah may have missed. She loved our dog! Noah, our videographer, made sure to get all the important moments as well. I can't wait to see all he captured of our special day! Last, DJ the DJ, was AMAZING. He was so organized, made sure we had everything we needed for the ceremony and reception. Our guests LOVED him. It was also important to us to have the wedding flow as much as possible without much downtime. All of the above made this happen. We can't say enough good things and we are appreciative of all their help, communication, and energy along the way!”

Hello! My name is Samantha Tomblin, owner of Initial Impressions. I’ve been doing photography for about 13 years now. The moment I began photographing, I fell in love with the whole process. My favorite part is capturing love, personalities and emotions in a still image. I’m a people person and love getting to know each of my clients, which I believe helps create a fun relaxing atmosphere at each of my sessions.

“Samantha and her second shooter, Katie, were fantastic to work with. We were a bit hesitant working with someone we didn't know from personal connections, but the positive reviews convinced us it was worth a shot. We are very thankful we hired Initial Impressions! From the beginning, Samantha communicated clearly and frequently. She was super patient with us, a bride and groom who weren't exactly sure what they wanted and were often slow at getting back to her, and helped us draft a schedule for the photographers for the Big Day. She was really good about letting us make decisions and augmenting them with her expert advice. On the day of, she and Katie were supportive and kind while being unobtrusive. I was surprised when we got our photos back to see moments that I had no idea they had captured! Extremely professional and excellent at capturing special moments. Speaking of getting photos back, Initial Impressions sent us the whole gallery only 3 weeks after the event with over 800 photos. We absolutely love them! From her consistent communication, ability to guide indecisive people, pleasant attitude, and superb professionalism, we would 100% work with Initial Impressions again.”

Hi, I’m Jovan Kiah — a wedding and portrait photographer based just outside Indianapolis. I’m your personal hype woman, passionate about capturing vibrant, true-to-color moments that feel like you. From big milestones to everyday magic, I’m here to freeze time in a way that’s real, timeless, and joy-filled. When I’m not behind the camera, I’m soaking up motherhood, planning game nights, or enjoying something sweet—because life’s too short not to.

Awarded Best of Zola
“It’s hard to put into words just how amazing our experience with Jovan was! From the start, she took the time to truly listen to our vision and understand our story. We wanted our engagement photos to capture our love story in bloom among the spring tulips, and she brought that vision to life more beautifully than we could have imagined. When we ran into a last-minute hiccup with our original location, Jovan immediately jumped in with alternative suggestions, and we are so grateful she did. The setting ended up being perfect—better than the original location, and the way she tells a story through her photography is simply incredible. Every image captured not just how we looked, but how we felt in that moment. Beyond her talent, Jovan is so fun (lots of laughs), engaging, and easy to work with. She made the entire experience feel natural and memorable. There is truly no one better to trust with your most important moments. We absolutely love our engagement photos and are even more excited for Jovan to photograph our wedding next year! Thank you, Jovan, for capturing this special season of our lives so perfectly. We couldn't be more grateful!”

Hi, I’m Connie—congratulations on your engagement. Thank you for being here and for considering me as your photographer. I take a thoughtful, hands-on approach and believe the experience matters just as much as the final images. I’m involved well before the wedding day—collaborating on vision, timelines, and details to ensure everything feels intentional and effortless. I love curated Pinterest boards, open communication, and creating imagery that feels elevated, timeless, and personal. This is your day, and it should reflect you. Let’s talk!

“We cannot recommend Connie enough! We worked with her for both our engagement photos at The Art Institute and our elopement at City Hall/Garfield Park Conservatory, and she was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Our engagement session happened to fall on one of the busiest days that I've ever seen at The Art Institute. Despite the crowds and chaos, Connie was completely calm and made everything feel so easy. Looking at our photos, you would never know how busy it was. Every photo is beautiful and feels so effortless. On our elopement day, Connie was just as amazing. She navigated the craziness of City Hall with ease and wasn't fazed by anything, including rain and a protest that happened right in the middle of our photos! She stayed calm, flexible, and positive through it all, which made such a difference on a day that could have easily felt stressful. She was also incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, gave us helpful tips and direction, and somehow made two people who are definitely not naturals in front of the camera feel comfortable and confident. And most importantly, our photos are absolutely beautiful. Connie has such a talent for capturing genuine, authentic moments while making the entire experience feel relaxed and fun. We feel so lucky that she was there to capture both of these special days!”

Rachael is the kind of person you want to reach out to when you’re thinking about future photoshoots, & who makes you want to do photoshoots just for an excuse to get to experience both her presence & her absolute talent again. if you were debating hiring Rachael, PLEASE don’t second guess it. you will NOT be disappointed.

“From the moment we first spoke with Debra and her fiancé, we knew they were the perfect photographers for our wedding day. Their communication style was prompt, caring, and always kept us informed throughout the process. The quality of their work is truly timeless, with beautiful, high-quality photos that captured all the important moments of our special day. They were there whenever we needed them, and it was clear they genuinely wanted to be a part of our celebration. We loved working with Debra and her fiancé - they were extremely kind and caring, and we recommend them without hesitation.”
