First - she was amazingly gung ho and eager to play in the snow with us for our engagement session. Then, she got AMAZING photos of our wedding, including the silly ones. Full disclosure, she's been a friend of mine for 10+ years. However, I have a LOT of friends who are photographers, and selecting Natalie was a no-brainer for our wedding. She is amazing to work with, and if you aren't friends yet, I bet you will be!!

Working with Love, Leon (formerly Krauter photography) was the most stressful part of planning our…read morewedding. We were profoundly disappointed with the lack of client-care, honesty and communication throughout the entire process, even in the delivery of photos. We hired Lauren + Casey because we liked their style, we wanted a husband/wife duo and we wanted Indy locals (we live in Los Angeles, our wedding was in my hometown of Indianapolis). We were happy to hear that Lauren, like us, felt it was important to meet in-person to talk vision + prep before the wedding. We agreed to meet in the June and July months when I was scheduled to fly home to Indianapolis. After hiring Love, Leon and putting down our 50% deposit, we felt that Lauren's interest in us and our wedding ended. At the beginning of June, I reached out to Lauren to set + confirm our first in-person meeting. Lauren informed us that she and her husband (2nd shooter) were moving to Germany at the end of the week and she would be unable to meet until the afternoon before my wedding day. As I probed further, she admitted that Casey was no longer available to shoot the wedding and she had already hired a new 2nd shooter. When I searched for this photographer online, I came up blank. There was no Instagram, no website, no reviews and no verifiable online presence of her work. Lauren supplied us with two private links to photos, but asked me to "trust her on this one" even though she had never shot a wedding with this person. We begged for our deposit back. Because so much had changed, we wanted to go with another photographer and part ways with no hard feelings. She refused to make an exception and informed us that she would be keeping our deposit regardless of our decision. We didn't have the budget to pay another photographer without getting that $1,650 deposit back, so we had to proceed with Lauren and try to make the best of this new situation. Her demeanor on the day-of was good and she handled herself well with our bridesmaid photos. The only thing that struck me as odd & unprofessional was when she asked the Matron of Honor to buy her an Uber home during the reception. After delivering the photo galleries, we noticed that a vast majority of the family and group shots were blurry. The trees behind us were focused, but all of our faces were out-of-focus. I reached out to Lauren asking for sharper versions that were suitable for printing and using in a photo book. At this point, she admitted that she had made a mistake with her camera during our group photo session and she did not have any in-focus photos of our wedding party, the bride's family, the bride + groom's family or my grandparents. I was stunned. I reached out to some professional photographer friends to see if anyone could salvage the images. I received an overwhelming response that this was not a camera setting issue, but rather a fundamental photography-skill issue. A photographer may occasionally slip into back-focus for one or two frames out of a hundred, but anyone who bills themselves as a professional would see this mistake after a shot or two and fix it immediately on-site preventing further blurry photos. They were all stunned to find out that she hadn't fixed it on-location, and further than she hadn't owned up to the rookie mistake upon delivery. She waited to see if we would catch it. The whole thing just doesn't sit well with me. All this to say - Love, Leon added stress to the wedding process rather than alleviating it. Maybe it was a one-time mistake, but I wouldn't recommend taking that risk on your wedding day. If you're a bride or groom who values communication, transparency and an overall positive experience in wedding planning, I would urge you to explore other photographers in Indy. **NOTE: As a courtesy, I let Lauren know in advance that we would be sharing our honest experience on this platform. In response, she offered + provided a 50% refund for the $3,600 contract and apologized as she understands that nothing can replace the fact that these images were not captured. She will "use this as an opportunity to learn and grow."**

From the very initial planning session, Lauren was knowledgable, professional, and passionate. They were well prepared and always seemed to know exactly what shots would work, which really helped us execute efficiently (that is saying a lot considering we took pictures with our family). Not only are they great photographers, they are also fun to be around! We appreciated their honesty, humor, and patience; characteristics we now value in an awesome wedding photographers duo and our marriage! The pictures are PERFECT. We absolutely adore them. Our wedding day was everything we could have imagined, and so was working with Love, Leon.

I loved going to Ania's studio for our newborn pictures! We arrived and were warmly greeted by her…read moreand her assistant. Her studio is located in the walk out basement of her house- with a cozy area with a fireplace that me and my husband were able to relax in while the baby pictures were being taken. My husband was able to finish his breakfast while we were hanging out, which was nice. I've quickly learned that it's difficult to make it out of the house with a brand new newborn, let alone ready for professional pictures! Glad that wan't necessary for our shoot. I was able to change and do my hair and make up there- with lots of time to spare. My husband and I were conveniently included in the last 15min of the shoot for some family pictures. So glad we got those! All in all, great experience! My mother and I went back yesterday to see the photos (most of them were a surprise!) and review the packages. She projects them on a screen so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the process. Ania was very helpful with the selections and editing options. I can tell she's very passionate about her work and really cares about the product she's producing. I can't wait to see the finished results!

I was even more comfortable with the fact that Ania is a nurse and was able to safely pose and comfort our baby girl. When we went to see the images she captured of our beautiful daughter, I was brought to tears! They were beautifully displayed on a large screen in a slideshow set to sweet music. She also designed beautiful birth announcements for us to be able to share the pictures with our friends and family. I highly recommend Ania Mikol Photography to anyone looking for pictures that capture such special times in their family's life, whether it's maternity, newborn, toddler, child, teen, family alike!

She is very polite and took the time to talk and email a lot ahead of time so she could deliver just what I wanted. Her pictures are phenomenal, especially her ability to get the colors and lighting to perfection. I love that the photos do not look staged, fake, or cliche - she creates lovely images that capture the beauty of woman and the excitement of life in me. She was AMAZING! She provided the photos very quickly, much faster than any other photographer. I have gotten compliments on my photos like you wouldn't believe; many of my relatives have told me that they've never seen better photos taken of me. I feel so lucky that I was able to find Gabriela. Gabriela's patience, professionalism, skill, and artistic eye were all deeply appreciated. I am highly recommending her work and I would certainly hire her again. If I had to sum up the experience in five words this is what it would say: caring, considerate, creative, attentive, and stunning.

The thought of knowing that this person standing next to me will be with me through the thick and thin, good times and bad, happy and sad. A moment of clarity, if you will. A FRESH feeling of being IN LOVE. Those three feelings that I initially felt when proposing, are what Melissa O'Connell of Fresh In Love brings when she documents your special day. She is really easy to work with, and makes you feel as comfortable (and as natural) as possible. Her approach, as she states on her site, is to treat each couple as how she'd want to be treated if she were getting married. With a modern and organic approach to her photographs, she makes her shots as natural as possible, which is what attracted us to her style. Those moments when you're not staring directly into the camera lens (although she gets those, too =), laughing uncontrollably, and being in love without a care of what's going on around you--times you remember vividly but don't always get to capture--Melissa is able to grab these memories and turn them into a lifelong memento. We happened upon Fresh In Love through the Knot website while searching for a wedding photographer. Her posted wedding pictures on her blog differentiated her from other wedding photographers I was eternally browsing through. Almost instantaneously, and if by chance, I knew she would be perfect to document our wedding. I'm a graphic designer with a particular eye for certain visual things which make me pause and look deeper, and her photographs made me do that. Melissa's professionalism, ease to work with, ability to scout locations beforehand for the best lighting, happy style, great attitude, willingness to travel on-location, accommodating approach, and kick-ass camera and lens(es) make her awesome. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in a heartbeat.
