Oh So Lovely Photography

2021, Esther was understanding during all the moves and always kept a positive mindset each time we had to move (and any Covid bride knows that you need that when dealing with postponing). Esther not only shot our wedding but our engagement session as well. She was easy to work with, kept my husband and I comfortable during the process and handled our two dogs like a champ! Our wedding day with Esther was nothing short of perfection, she kept us on track with our schedule, kept our whole bridal party comfortable and laughing (and to me those candid shots were SO important.) Not only that she listened to us when we explained that we wanted our photos to be a lighter vibe and took everything we wanted in mind when shooting our day. I wish there was more starts I could give sweet Esther but I guess 5 will do. If you are looking for someone great and fun for our wedding hire Esther - and I guess if you want to be boring and have a lame day then don't hire her because she brings the party.

o professional, kind and bubbly in person on our wedding day. Esther worked with us to ensure she understood our vision and could capture it so that we can remember our special day forever. Esther takes beautiful, magazine quality photos, and she made us feel like models for a day! I'd HIGHLY recommend working with Esther, she was amazing!!

ng about Esther is that both her and her work are so genuine, and her ability to capture emotions and candid moments is pretty much magic. Planning our wedding was a rollercoaster to say the least! We postponed our September 2020 wedding twice due to covid; decided that we still wanted to make things official on our original date, and then proceeded to plan a mini backyard ceremony at our parents’ house. Esther was a champ and just patiently rolled with the punches alongside us as we pivoted directions. Since engagement photos had also taken a backseat to covid the first time we actually met Esther was the day of our ceremony, but you never would have known it, she immediately made us feel comfortable and blended in seamlessly with the small group of family and friends we had gathered. Even though our mini backyard elopement wedding was sort of an improvised “Plan B” it ended up being more special than I could ever have imagined, and that is in a large part thanks to Esther! Safe to say that I cannot wait to work her again!

our wedding day. Wedding photographers are with you the whole day and see all the emotion, so it was such a blessing to have someone so talented, personable and professional with use the whole day!! Highly recommend Oh So Lovely!

and turned everything upside down, through a spin cycle, rinse and repeat. But Esther was so kind and steadying in the lead-up to our October 2020 wedding. She didn’t bat an eye as we pivoted our plans and scaled things waaaaaay down. She was so helpful, tender, and provided exactly the guidance we needed. Since our wedding would have only 16 people present, we were a little nervous it would be awkward. But Esther’s calming presence (just the sound of her voice will make your shoulders relax) and true professionalism sincerely made our day better. We loved having her present and even our guests talked about how much they all loved her for weeks. And her work truly speaks for itself. Hiring Esther was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding, and now we have wedding photos we treasure. You won’t want to lock these up in an album you never open, they sing. Her work is sincere, emotional, and looks just as beautiful as your wedding did in person.

w and you can truly feel the moment captured in each of her photos. Not only are her photos amazing but she is so sweet and patient and we just love her. She was so great on our wedding day and she did everything she could to make sure to get all the photos we wanted and to help keep us on our very tight timeline and we sincerely appreciate all that she did for us. Esther is truly such a pleasure to work with and we had so much fun with her during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. She is just like one of our friends! We will definitely use her again in the future and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!!

andemic. She accommodated a last minute change on our part for an intimate wedding at a smaller scale. Through the event, she was so calming and her creativity made taking photos so fun and seamless. Esther went above and beyond to make this event special. I wasn't able to have bridesmaids there, so Esther took on the role of my maid of honor in many cases, helping with my dress, keeping my family organized, to staging our sparkler exit. Her photo and editing skills are gorgeous. We can't say enough positive things about hiring Esther and recommend her to anyone looking for a creative, thoughtful, photographer that will put you at ease and make sure the event is unforgettable.

isioned our big day with any other duo. Hiring Esther was the BEST decision - I wish we could give her more than 5 stars! She is so real, down to earth, patient, kind, and a true artist. Definitely will be hiring her again for portraits in the future.

photographer just stop looking right now and reach out to her. Here’s why: - Esther’s photos are like art. It’s never just a point and shoot. Your photos will be beautiful and unique and unlike anyone else’s - Her. Esther is sweet and patient and LITERALLY everyone at your entire wedding will love her and want to be her friend - She’ll see the day through your eyes. She captured my grandma’s face when we talked about my amazing grandpa who is no longer with us. The few seconds my mom and I held hands when I was getting ready. My sister helping me when my shoe slipped off, my husband and his sisters in one of their goofy hugs, and on and on and on I think that’s her secret – nothing about what you’ll get with Ester is generic. I’ve only seen the previews and can’t believe or understand how she managed to be everywhere and capture every moment of our day, big or small. On your wedding day, your photographer is with you every single second. During ALL your most special and intimate moments. I spent more time with Esther that day than probably anyone else, and it just felt like she was supposed to be there. Like a very creative/extremely talented friend who happened to take photos of me 😊 If you’re looking for a photographer, for any reason, stop looking and reach out to Esther, because she is everything and more.

ple I have ever met. Our initial consultation for our wedding was casual and relaxed; my now husband and I felt like we were meeting an old friend. She doesn’t know this, but I cancelled every other photographer meeting after we met with her - and Esther was the first person we met with! I was able to witness her in action prior to my wedding day as she was also the photographer for my best friend’s wedding the year prior (but after our consult). Her style is unique and her ability to capture candid moments is unrivaled. My husband is the worst about smiling in pictures, but I have so many shots from that day of him with the widest grin. On the day of our wedding, Esther patiently coached my husband and I, as well as wrangled our entire bridal party as needed for photos. I am thrilled and elated that such a wonderful person was part of our happiest day. The only gripe I have is that now that my wedding is over and we received all our pictures, I’m going to have to find reasons to keep in touch. Esther is absolutely the one I will be contacting in the future whenever I need pictures in the future. Do yourself a favor and follow her on Instagram, too.

nd, gracious and exactly the type of person you want to work with on your wedding day. I highly recommend her!

. From the moment we met her we felt at ease talking with her as if we were old friends. She’s so kind and genuine it makes it easy to work with her. And if you’re not sure what to do in photos, she guides you in a way that is comfortable and feels more natural. There are some poses, but really the photos we loved, that she excels at, are the candid photos she gets. Really all of our photos, from engagement session to our wedding are absolutely breathtaking and they feel like us; like she captured our true emotions. And for the price?! There is no one better. And if you don’t believe me...I actually went through the 700 photographer portfolios they have listed on The Know! That’s how important our photographer was to me and I wanted to make sure I got the best person and the best price. She’s so amazing, my best friend and Maid of Honor just hired her to be the photographer for her wedding. If you’re in search of the best, call Esther.

ed!!

y photo she takes. I highly, HIGHLY recommend her.

d with Esther's portfolio and fell in love with her style of photography. Communication is key with wedding vendors, and she was very helpful and prompt to answer any questions before and after our wedding. Since we live across the country, the first time meeting was our on wedding day, but Esther and Andrea (Esther's 2nd photographer for the day) made us feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the whole day. They had the perfect balance between directing us with posing and candid shots which resulted in a beautiful array of photos. We have received tons of compliments not only about how beautiful our wedding photos turned out, but also from wedding guests and bridal party, saying how attentive and enjoyable they both were. We're so pleased and honored to have chosen Oh So Lovely Photography to photograph our wedding and would recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer!

ing, and wanted them to be captured in an intimate and beautiful way. My pickiness was quickly met by the impossibility of finding a great photographer at a reasonable price who could be available on our date. I went through dozens of websites, let down by cost or unavailability, until I found Esther and her beloved Oh So Lovely Photography. With stunning luck, I liked her gorgeous work best of all, she was within our budget, and she was available for our wedding day. I couldn’t believe it then, but now I feel it was meant to happen! Esther is as sweet, kind, and professional as she is talented. For our engagement photos, despite our awkwardness and so-so weather, Esther guided us and worked her magic to produce really beautiful photos. Several of my friends were so impressed that they want to work with her too! On the wedding day, we got to work with both Esther & her husband, David. Despite the ceremony starting late, which cut into picture time, they were easygoing and later helped us find a moment between light rain showers to get more pictures outside. The only thing I could say makes Esther even better is David, as they work so well together. I can see how he adds another dimension to her work! I can’t wait to see all the photos from our wedding as I know I will be even more moved than I was by our e-session. The preview that we received while on our honeymoon made our trip even sweeter and thrills me every time I look at it! In short, our photographer was one of the BEST parts of our wedding. For Esther, I know that photography is not just a job but a love and a passion. This shines through in every beautiful picture. Her excitement for the beauty of life and love for weddings truly added to my own wedding experience, and I am so thankful to have worked with and know her!
