Cincinnati's candid, natural, and fun wedding photographer

Which style best captures the essence of your wedding?

My approach is to photograph in a relaxed manner that sets the stage naturally. I offer a little guidance, encourage you to focus on each other, and I artistically capture your passion and emotion. There are some look-at-the-camera-and-smile photographs, but it’s not overdone. My method is a fun and comfortable way to be photographed, and my images are spontaneous, emotional, and timeless.

What about candids?

I also capture many candid moments without interfering. You will be amazed by the behind-the-scenes photographs when you didn’t realize I was there. Your photographs will show the emotional connections between loved ones... the glances, smiles, hugs, tears, and joy. It is these details that tell your story, not only of your wedding day, but of all the meaningful relationships in your life.

My style creatively tells the story of your wedding day with exciting and emotional photography.

What’s most important on your wedding day?

It’s NOT the photography!

Your vows and having a GREAT TIME with your friends and family are more important. You deserve a photographer that understands that and delivers breathtaking photographs, without dominating your day.

I want your day to be about you two. I’ll help you have the time-of-your-lives with good, attentive communication and planning; by being well organized, efficient, flexible, relaxed, and quick on your wedding day!

Your wedding day is about you two. You deserve an unforgettable experience AND unforgettable photographs.
You can expect:

     That I will...
  • Guarantee that you will LOVE your photographs, my service, and how I represent you and your family at your wedding. If you aren't thrilled, I will do whatever it takes to make you thrilled. If I can't, I will refund your money.
  • I will show up early, and stay the entire length of time, if not longer.
  • I will bring an emergency bridal kit with hundreds of items to save the day.
  • I will be excited about photographing your wedding and have a lot of fun doing it!
  • I will capture beautiful, natural, and emotional photographs!
  • I will design a distinctive, elegant wedding album that will be as unique and individual as your wedding.
  • I will have your wedding gallery online usually within a week.

     That I won’t...
  • I won’t get annoyed and impatient with you or your guests. I never forget that your guests are close family and friends. Your guests are welcome to take photographs along with me.
  • I won’t contribute to the chaos. I'll be a reassuring and calming presence.
  • I won’t think that your day revolves around photography.
  • I won’t sit down and eat during your dinner. I'd rather be taking great photographs.
  • I won’t spend a lot of time telling you how to put your hand on your chin correctly.
  • I won’t hold your retainer hostage.
  • It is fully refundable or applicable to another date or service.
  • I won't show you samples taken by myself then send another less capable photographer to your wedding.fun romantic wedding photography in Cincinnati

     You should...
  • Be completely uninhibited with your love for each other. I know it's weird having a camera lens fixated on you all day, but I can't capture images of you gazing romantically into each other's eyes, or you wiping a tear during your dance with dad unless you let your true emotions show. Do that and I won't miss it. :)


  • Sit back, enjoy your day, don't pay attention to me, and I guarantee that you'll be thrilled with your wedding photographs!

Selecting your photographer

The mistake we made when we got married...

When my wife, Holly and I got married before I was a photographer, we made the mistake that so many couples make. We selected our photographer primarily by price and what we would receive. What we received was boring unemotional photographs. We liked the lower cost initially, but now are filled with regret every time we look at our disappointing photographs. We should have chosen a photographer based on how their images moved us, not by the number of prints and pages.

You’ll love my easy-going and professional approach, and my commitment to service. Finally, you'll be thrilled with my flexible and competitive pricing that makes Jeff Schaefer Photography an incredible VALUE.
