Working with Chad Swinford Photography was an absolute win for me as a marketing agency owner…read more I hired him to handle brand photography and b-roll for Limitless Woodworking during a tight launch window. Even with a compressed timeline, he took the time to understand the heart behind the brand and what we were trying to communicate. He understood the assignment and delivered. From the first conversation through post-production, the experience felt intentional and white-glove. I'm very type-A and strategic by nature, and Chad balanced that beautifully with his creative perspective. He never made the process feel rushed or stressful, and my clients genuinely enjoyed working with him. It's rare to find someone who cares equally about the final product and the client experience. Chad does both exceptionally well. He captured the images and behind-the-scenes woodshop footage we needed to tell their story and connect with their audience. Getting clients comfortable on camera is not always easy, but he created an environment that made it feel natural and effortless. If you are looking for a photographer or videographer who combines professionalism, creativity, and care, I highly recommend Chad Swinford Photography.

The basics: Sean (and wife Molly) shot my high school senior pictures in the fall and spring in 2…read moreseparate sessions, and my parents and I are 100% glad I chose them to create my images. So much so that my younger sister also had her pictures done by Sean as well! Sean was very easy to work with when initially setting up the logistics of the shoots. I knew more about where I didn't want to have my pictures done than actual suggestions of places, so I definitely leaned on him a lot to help me decide. He has so much experience in different locations and venues, so I fully trusted his input. We decided on the IMA for the fall and Broad Ripple for spring. The first session was shot solely by Sean. I brought a few outfits and my dad's 1950s MG (and my dad). Sean is so creative, and he has a multitude of ideas for shots by just looking around. We basically walked around to different areas, and I really didn't have to do anything. He coached me through all the poses and angles, which was awesome because I had no experience being in front of a camera. My dad loved all the pictures Sean took with his MG because he managed to make it look like I was driving through a field when I wasn't. The second session was with both Sean and Molly around Broad Ripple. It was a lot of fun being with both of them. Molly and Sean guided me around to the areas with the best back drop and took many unique shots. They both have so many ideas and know exactly how to optimize body position, facial expression, lighting, and surroundings to create a multitude of truly beautiful images. The finished product was incredible. They gave me a nicely-bound book of all the finished images, which my parents and I used to order prints. Every image was unique and beautiful, and there were so many to choose from. A lot of senior pictures look exactly the same, but Sean and Molly bring a lot of artistry into their photography. The end result is phenomenal, and I definitely plan to hire them for any future photography.

My Wife and I met Sean and Molly over coffee almost a year before our wedding. Right off the bat,…read moreyou could feel their passion, empathy, and desire to capture our big day perfectly. On top of all that, they were such great conversation and an absolute riot together! Although we had other photographers to meet, deep down, we knew they were the ones for us. We had two engagement shoots, one in the fall and one in the spring before the wedding. They suggested a few sessions so my wife and I could get comfortable in front of the camera. We were blown away by their work! My wife had never looked more beautiful in photos, and I didn't look half bad either! ;) We were so impressed with our engagement shots, we couldn't wait to see what they could come up with for our wedding. We asked Sean and Molly to come down a day early to shoot our rehearsal dinner. The venue was a dimly lit, speakeasy type lounge. Their experience shooting in low light paid off amazingly! The photos they took of our rehearsal captured each moment perfectly! We wanted the pictures to feel organic, and the love and joy in the room was perfectly preserved by the duo throughout the night. Their candid work is unmatched! We don't know how they made every little moment come to life, but they did, and we are so grateful! On the day of the wedding, Sean and Molly were the epitome of professionalism. Prior to the wedding, we had established a game plan for the day with them in order to ensure we would capture all the shots we wanted. They helped us stay on schedule without being pushy, and that helped the day go so much smoother! Their creativity, playfulness with light, and easy demeanor resulted in so many wonderfully captured moments, we couldn't be any happier! We wanted shots with our dog, Swag, check! The groomsmen walking around in silk kimonos, check! Me ugly crying at the first look, check! A special shot at one of my favorite campus landmarks, check! A signature Molin moment, check! (They took an epic shot of our wedding party in the auditorium seats that still has people wondering how it was pulled off!) Each shot was both tender and dramatic and exactly what we were looking for when we envisioned having photos of our day! Oh, and how can we not mention our reception photos?! Sean and Molly were all over the place capturing all the shenanigans going on through the night! From the father-daughter dance to our first dance as a couple, our friends and their dance battles to people smashing late night pizza delivery, nothing slipped past them throughout the night! My wife and I STILL go through these photos regularly, and we feel like we're right back in the mix of the celebration! It speaks to Sean and Molly's expertise and natural talent! To work with a husband and wife team means they are innately empathetic to what you want to accomplish on your day. You won't go wrong leaving the tremendous task of preserving your soon to be most cherished memories in their talented hands! We find ourselves lucky that our paths crossed with theirs in our search for wedding photographers. As we got to know Sean and Molly more, it only enriched and enlivened our experience. We are so happy they were there to capture and celebrate our big day, and we are even more grateful to call them friends. You won't be disappointed hiring this talented duo. We aren't, and we'll be sure to call on them anytime we want to capture the finest moments in our lives! Cheers!

Melody is so wonderful to work with. She was the photographer for my best friends wedding and when…read moreit came time for me to find a photographer she was my first choice. Her prices are very reasonable and because I saw her at a bridal show I won another discount with a free engagement session (I didn't do engagement photos, but it was nice to have the option). The day of was great. My husband and I aren't the lovey doves type and are super awkward but she managed it keep it fun and made our awkwardness look really cute. At the end of the evening she had a couple preview photos for us and we had the finals about a month later. I definitely recommend her for your photographer needs.

She touched base with me at every point in between and leading up to the wedding and responded quickly to any questions I had.

Her aesthetic and photography style was exactly what I was looking for: natural and candid rather than posed with props. We hired Lauren for an at-home newborn shoot for our little family and she was wonderful to work with. Prior to my son being born she was super accessible via phone and email. She talked through tips on what to wear and even let me text her 8-9 outfits the night before for her feedback. She was so friendly and wonderful with our 10-day-old son. She has a background in childcare and it really shows. Not only is she a talented photographer, she offered my husband and I, new parents, a lot of really great tips! We loved how the photos came out and upgraded our package to receive the full library of images. Her prices are definitely reasonable for the quality of her work.
