Brooke and Taylor’s wedding day was truly breathtaking. From the very beginning, everything came together in the most beautiful way—the florals, the colors, and every little detail felt so thoughtful and intentional. The entire day had this elevated, luxurious feel, but it was also full of heart, which made it even more special.

One of the things that stood out most to me was how much Brooke and Taylor cared about their photography. From the start, they told me how important film photos, drone shots, and candid moments were to them. I loved that—they wanted their day captured with a mix of artistry and authenticity, and that’s exactly how it unfolded.

Shooting film throughout the day gave their photos a timeless quality that felt perfectly in tune with their elegant celebration. The drone allowed us to capture the beauty of the setting in such a grand way—it really showcased just how stunning everything looked from above. And in between all of those editorial-style images, there were so many genuine, unscripted moments. Brooke’s laughter, the way Taylor looked at her during the ceremony, little in-between glances and smiles—those are the memories that bring the story of their day to life.

What I loved most about Brooke and Taylor’s wedding was how effortless it felt. Yes, it was undeniably gorgeous and high-end, but it was also fun, warm, and full of joy. At the end of the night, it was clear that this day wasn’t just about creating a beautiful wedding—it was about celebrating their love in a way that felt true to them.

It was such an honor to capture it all.

Review from the couple –

Stevie is so much more than a photographer— she becomes a friend, a calming presence, and a listening ear. She helped us plan our wedding day timeline and offered ideas that made everything run seamlessly. Her ability to capture raw, genuine emotion is unmatched, and the photos themselves are absolutely stunning-we got so many that it’s hard to even choose favorites! On top of that, her turnaround time is incredible; we had our full gallery back weeks before friends who got married before us. She’s easy to work with, makes you feel comfortable, and gets along effortlessly with everyone. She truly is the best wedding photographer in Ohio.

We couldn’t have asked for a better person to capture our day and feel so fortunate to have now gained a friend. Thank you, Stevie!!!
