About Eastlyn and Joshua
We strive to document your wedding story with a unique eye and an unwavering commitment to capturing the true essence of your relationship. We don't believe in forcing awkward poses or artificial expressions; instead, we work with you to capture genuine and relaxed moments that reflect the connection between you and your partner. We believe photography is a powerful gift with the ability to leave a lasting legacy. When you look back at your photos we want you to not only see them, but feel the emotions behind them. We are here to serve you, not to please the audience; so trust us to be your photographers, not just for the wedding or elopement day itself, but for all the future memories looking back on your photos will create.
We Love to Travel but We love Our Home in Ohio too
We love living in the Midwest because it keeps us close to our families. Evenings at home include long walks around town or at our favorite local metro parks, working in our garden, or antiquing to feed our fascination of legacy. And when we’re not at home or traveling for our couples, we’re most likely on the trail. Hiking together is our favorite activity, especially when it’s rewarded by a lofty view or an ice cold lake swim.
From the start of this journey, we have firmly believed that if we’re going to advertise ourselves as travel photographers, then it’s vital to be experienced in travel, while also having experience in photographing landscapes with a human connection. We don’t take that lightly—so far we’ve spent time in 33 different U.S. national parks, and have been to 22 different countries, photographing stories throughout.
People often ask us our favorite place we’ve traveled. Outside of home, our favorite place in the US is Jackson Hole, Wy, which feels like a second home because of how connected to it we feel when we’re there. Other than Grand Teton, our favorite national parks are Point Reyes, Olympic, and Yosemite. And our favorite international destinations are the remote, rugged, breathtaking beyond words, Faroe Islands and Torres del Paine, Patagonia, Chile.
Kind Words
“...though we fell in love with their amazing photography to begin with, it wasn’t until after we met them that we realized how little their work has to do with actual light, shutter speed, or aperture, but rather with their desire to live life fully, capture and tell stories, and marvel at the moments that make love beautiful and unique.”
“You are above and beyond. You captured our day so beautifully! The love is there. The joy. Our families. Our friends. The camp-y-ness. The fun. The details. All of it is there. It’s really more than I could have imagined. I cannot understate how much I appreciate everything you and Joshua have done. Thank you for being amazing. You are truly artists.”
“We could not ask for a better experience with our photographers! Eastlyn and Joshua took the time to know us and share our story meaningfully through their photography. They were professional, diligent, and creatively invested. We loved our time with them and felt truly known. We recommend them 100% to future clients!”
“When we received our wedding photos, they brought us right back to those moments. They were beautiful. Their edits perfectly illustrated the way the day had felt. The tones were soft and fresh, making the images look timeless rather than on trend. The photos themselves felt like poetry. They perfectly tell the story of our day with authentic smiles, laughs, and tender moments. There were the classic group portraits to keep the family happy, but other than that, each captured moment depicts a real memory rather than a forced pose, and they worked in such a way that we rarely knew we were being photographed. Eastlyn and Joshua were such a huge part of our wedding, and we’ll forever cherish the memories they’ve given us. We’re so grateful for everything they’ve done for us, and we honestly couldn’t recommend them more.”
“I don’t even know where to start…. If you are looking for professional, skilled, attentive photographers, you have found the right couple. Eastlyn and Joshua were so amazing to work with. They were easy to communicate with and quick to respond to my several inquiries. They did their homework on our elopement location and made sure it would capture all the aspects I was looking for. During the wedding day, they were calm and patient, making my nerves disappear. We had so much fun taking our photos and I can’t stop looking at the finished products. Our photos are perfect and we couldn’t be happier with our photographer choice!”
