It was super easy to book a session and it was a gorgeous farm in Bethel OH. Emily kept the session very fun and light. We mostly joked and laughed a lot and it didn't even feel unnatural or staged. My husband who is usually shy, said after the session that he actually had a fun time, so that in my books is a big WIN! The gallery was delivered within literally 2 days, so quick and the photos turned out to be absolutely GORGEOUS! The colors, the light, everything looked in perfect synchrony! Thank you Emily in helping us capture some special moments to celebrate our 2nd year wedding anniversary!

When I say that our photos had us laughing, crying and screaming (in the most excited and happy…read moreway), I am not exaggerating. And the pictures were just part of it. Not only did Kylie deliver stunning galleries, but she curated a whole experience. Right from our first phone call, Kylie made us feel both excited and at ease, which was a theme throughout our time working with her. We had the pleasure of working with Kylie for both our engagement shoot and wedding. When she arrived to the engagement shoot, she brought allll the happy energy and creativity, despite it being like 6 AM on a chilly morning at the beach. She immediately made us feel more comfortable in front of the camera than I thought was possible, and then proceeded to ask us really thoughtful questions about what kind of posing we preferred, which meant a lot to us as a queer couple where assumptions could have been made... Kylie was incredibly quick with the editing and had our gallery back to us the next day, and our photos were literal treasures. She captured our personalities so well. They were a far cry from the stale, cookie-cutter engagement photos I see on instagram all the time. Before the wedding, Kylie provided two calls and made herself available for any questions that came up in between. She worked with our wedding planner to make sure our day-of timeline would run smoothly and that we'd get all the pictures we wanted. By the time the wedding came, we were excited to introduce all of our friends to Kylie and see what magic she would work. She was confident, calming and encouraging the whole day and even handled a delicate family dynamic beautifully. The photos she and her talented assistant, Jordan, delivered were incredible, and we got so many compliments from our friends and family. Booking Kylie was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and I am so grateful we got to work with her!

Kylie is wonderful!…read more We had a private ceremony that she photographed and the pictures are perfect! She arrived earlier and captured many wonderful moments before the ceremony and then after took hundreds of photos that were so romantic, cute, funny and beautiful. She quickly reviewed and processed all the photos providing us an incredible photo record of this special day - she also accomodated some special requests after we reviewed them. From beginning to end it was pleasure working with Kylie. She was professional, very responsive, and kind. I can't recommend her highly enough!

From the very beginning she was extremely helpful in helping understand and plan hair styles and how to schedule trials. Her services are completely personal and her personality is just the best! I found her on Instagram. My hair type: frizzy, wavy in the front and braided crimp like in the back Trial: I booked my trial just a few weeks out from my wedding... which I highly recommend! My hair color and texture mimicked my wedding day hair. I also probably would have changed the style I wanted if it was any earlier. I even asked Bri to help remind me to schedule an Uber since I didn't have a car and was visiting from Chicago. I found it so funny to find She set an alarm on her phone to remind me. Made her feel like my friend and not just my hairstylist... anyhow... after my trial I scooted around Cinci to a few breweries and flew home to chicago and took a nap. my hair still looking untouched. That's how I knew I choose the right person! Wedding day: Bri was first to arrive and took no time to start her masterpieces. My girls absolutely loved. Bri! You tell her what you want and she gives you all the confidence about your choice. Everyone's hair stayed all night! It was muggy... and my hair barely even frizzed and looked so good even when I woke up the next morning. End story: Book Bri before she is booked up. You will regret not booking her.

However, I was pleasantly surprised by how much support they provided in the weeks leading up to the big day. Their professionalism, respectfulness, and grace helped bring our wedding plans to life seamlessly. As someone who doesn't trust easily--especially when it comes to something as important as a wedding--I was able to fully relax and enjoy the day knowing the Blue Dahlia team was in charge. During vendor meetings, I often heard, "Blue Dahlia already mentioned that--we're good," which gave me confidence everything was under control. Their insight and experience were incredibly helpful as I navigated the many details and decisions, particularly as someone who can be indecisive. Throughout every meeting, my husband and I felt seen, heard, and completely at ease. I truly believe every couple needs a day-of coordinator, and Blue Dahlia is the team you want by your side.

We absolutely loved working with Cara and can't recommend her enough…read more From the very beginning, she was flexible, easygoing, and genuinely wonderful to be around. We had a few plan changes along the way, and Cara handled everything with total grace -- no stress, no pressure, just support. On the wedding day itself, she went above and beyond to make both of us feel comfortable and special. Neither of us are naturals in front of a camera, but Cara made everything feel relaxed and fun, and it shows in the photos. We felt truly taken care of. One thing that meant a lot to us: during a time when finding vendors for a Jewish wedding can feel a little nerve-wracking, Cara didn't blink twice. She was completely open, respectful, and excited to be part of our day, which made us feel so at ease and so grateful. And the photos are stunning. She captured the joy, emotion, and energy of the day perfectly -- we love them so much. If you want a photographer who is talented, kind, flexible, and deeply invested in her couples, Cara is the one. We're so thankful we found her. -- Molly & Andrew
