Captured by Lydia

captured it in such a magical way, I am happy to have my photos forever

relief as a bride. She met with us on multiple occasions to help set the timeline and to help make sure our day was photographed the way we planned. Lydia did our engagement session before our wedding, she took the time to explain the various poses she wanted us to do. We had fun and walked away with beautiful photos. On our wedding day Lydia and her mom showed up early to capture undisturbed photos and truly captured our wedding day in a way I couldve never asked for. She went above and beyond in everything she did and kept us on track for the timeline we had set. She was so quick to get sneak peeks up and we had our wedding album in no time. I am beyond thankful for Captured by Lydia and the amazing talent Lydia has behind the camera. I could never truly thank her for the beautiful wedding photos we have to cherish forever!

es. For context, I hate taking pictures. But, Lydia has this way where she does not make you feel like you are posed and on the spot. She makes everything comfortable. For the wedding, we took ceremony pictures in Kalida, OH and reception in Lima, OH. Lydia is so organized and makes it so easy on you. She is experienced and is a wedding expert to say the least. We talked on the phone before the wedding, she gave me tips for the big day, and we went over pictures to be taken. She gave me a detailed schedule for the entire day. She mailed me a nice bag to put all my details like rings, invitations, and etc I wanted photographed. Then the big day arrives and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Lydia has this amazing ability to be easygoing, kind to everyone, but at the same time keeping people in order and she keeps the schedule scheduling. At the same time, she is capturing the big details and she is capturing the smallest of details. All the photos are beautiful. A few days after the wedding, she had so many pictures up and ready on her blog. Then 2 weeks later, she has the whole wedding ready. She is everything you want and need for any special moment you want to capture.

and the photos are amazing! Plus she is very timely with getting your photos to you! She has more than enough talent and experience to make sure that no matter what your day brings you will get jaw dropping photos! Our engagement pictures in April happened to fall on the only cold day of a 60 degree week and I still love EVERY SINGLE PHOTO. Our wedding day happened to have rain and wind and I still love EVERY SINGLE PHOTO. Give her a call, you won’t regret it!

ssional who brings immense care, creativity and style into her photography. She even made a special drive for our engagement photos to a place that was sentimental to my family. She was extremely helpful with the timeline of our wedding day and kept everything running smoothly. Her photos are timeless & beautiful, and every step of the photography process she shared before, during and after the wedding was wonderful & very organized. She was very quick with getting our photos back to us, and she adds special touches with her blog post & social media. We LOVE our photos and highly recommend to choose Lydia for your special day!!

encouraged us during poses, and was so so kind. She really was one of the main reasons our day ran so smoothly and was so stress free. She is personable and makes it clear she really does value the couples and families she works with. ❤️

t we wanted. She was responsive and helpful and worked so well with my big bridal party and all our other vendors. I'm obsessed with her work and everything she did for me-- our wedding day wouldn't have been the same without her!

we were looking for! Look no further, as we would highly recommend Captured by Lydia for your wedding day! She was super flexible with us when we made the extremely difficult decision to postpone our full celebration until next year due to COVID-19 and were so grateful she agreed to document our very intimate ceremony this year! With being an out-of-state bride, we were anxious how that would work, but from the beginning, Lydia was extremely responsive and willing to work with us through this challenging wedding year! She went above and beyond by creating our timeline for the wedding day and helping us figure out all of the logistics of our intimate celebration! When the big day finally arrived, we couldn’t have asked for more kind, helpful, and supportive photographers than Lydia and her second shooter, Lori, who just so happens to be her mom – which we loved! The day flew by, but we could thoroughly enjoy the day and soak in every moment knowing we were in excellent hands with Lydia and her mom and trusted they would capture all of the special moments! We couldn’t believe it when we received our full wedding album in just a few short days after our wedding and were stunned at how beautiful the images are! We will treasure these photos always! We’re looking forward to the chance to capture more wonderful memories at our big celebration next year with Lydia and her mom!

ding day! She arrived early and stayed later to make sure all the pictures we wanted were taken. She pushed us out of our comfort zone, but made us feel so comfortable, which led to some amazing photos!! Lydia kept our time line running on track throughout the day, while adding a lot of fun and without being pushy. We couldn’t be happier that we chose her to capture our special day!!

erious about her schedule and getting all of your special photos captured, and has a serious eye for a beautiful photo. I cannot say enough good things about her and will continue to use her for all of my future photography needs. Nothing beats having good chemistry with your photographer, and that is what I had with Lydia.

ts during the wedding that I didn't even realize that she was capturing at the time and I'm so happy those experiences are something that can be documented forever. She was so kind and has an amazing personality that is extremely easy to get along with. Highly recommend. 10/10 would choose her again if we did it all overagain

utifully, and we had them by the time we were back from our honeymoon! Thanks for Everything Lydia!

comfortable in front of the camera. Her turnaround time is insanely quick (She had our wedding photos done in a week!) and her work is phenomenal!!! On top of that, she truly celebrates with you: leading up to your big day, throughout it, and even after. Lydia has captured so many big moments in our life, from our engagement to our wedding day, and we cannot wait for her to capture even more in the future.

he process. On our first phone call together, it was clear she knew what she was doing and would make the process easy for me; this was so refreshing and really put me at ease. The day-of, Lydia was the perfect mix of flexible and directive. She always had a handle on the timeline, so I was confident we would keep on schedule. Just one week after the wedding, she posted a wonderful highlight blog with great photos and commentary from the day. My husband and I enjoyed looking through the photos while killing time in the airport during our honeymoon! I would 100% recommend Captured by Lydia for wedding photos.
