Josh is the best at what he does. I look forward to reliving the most special day of our lives through Josh's lens.

Josh with Bella Grace Studios recently shot my wedding at Ashebourne Farms, and I absolutely loved working with him and his team. Not only does Josh deliver unparalleled digital and film photos but he and his team are beyond amazing to work with. He went above and beyond every step of the way to ensure that the process and our day was everything we could have ever dreamed of and more.

Josh is the best at what he does. He has truly perfected the art of capturing the magic of your special day but, more importantly, he does it with kindness, respect and a loving heart. While he started as our photographer he quickly became a friend. I look forward to reliving the most special day of our lives through Josh's lens. I cannot recommend Bella Grace enough.

Josh – There are not enough works to thank you for everything you did during this process. You are truly amazing. We love you!

Josh is an amazing photographer! We absolutely love our wedding pictures. My husband and I clicked with Josh very easily and he quickly understood our vision for our wedding and who we are as a couple. Josh gets it and he knows his stuff. He will go above and beyond to help make your day special!

Bella Grace Studios is in a class of its own! We sought out Josh because of his elegant, organic, vintage aesthetic and extensive use of film. We thought we knew what we were getting, but when we saw the final product, we were floored. Honestly, we could not believe the photos were from our wedding. To boot, he has a calm demeanor and put us both at ease during the inherent awkwardness of a photo shoot. We felt the package was a good value because it included an engagement session, two albums, and a box of prints. Another thing that was important to us was that we own th photos outright, so we can print and share as much as we want. To anyone getting married in KY, we recommend BGS 100%.

Josh with Bella Grace Studios recently shot my wedding, and I absolutely loved working with him. He knows how weddings work in and out and did a great job of keeping us on schedule so that we could get the necessary shots. It was a hot day so he was mindful to get us outside early enough to where we could take photos and then have enough time to take a break in the air conditioning before heading back out for more photos. He kept the trains moving and captured stunning shots along the way! I highly recommend him!

I am the MOB and I am happy to share our experience with Bella Grace Studios! I had seen Josh Meredith’s work before but had not had the privilege of working with him. He’s a True professional in every way! He also has a warm and friendly personality and he makes you feel like your wedding is the most important one he’s ever filmed. I witnessed him work with my daughter flawlessly. He got her to relax and be herself. He knows “the drill” and made sure the timing of the day while shooting pictures was dead on!
Most importantly...... the photos are gorgeous! He caught Special moments that evoke emotion, while also getting the necessary shots!
The quality and artistry can’t be beat!
Needless to say.....I HIGHLY recommend Josh Merideth and Bella Grace Studios!

From the moment I got engaged I knew I wanted Josh to photograph our wedding. I had seen his work in Kentucky Bride and fell in love. The style and quality of his photographs are unmatched. Not only did he take beautiful photos that we will cherish forever, he also was such a calming presence on the day of our wedding. Josh was able to capture moments from every angle of our ceremony and reception. We were amazed with the amount of images that he was able to collect! I highly recommend Bella Grace to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. With Josh and his team you will be in the best hands on your wedding day.

Josh was phenomenal. Not only are his pictures truly beautiful but he helped me with so much the day of, he was truly a life saver. From keeping me on time and helping with the flow of the day to tracking down the toasting champagne when the caterer forgot to put it out, he is truly amazing. I can't praise him enough for all that he's done for us. In my opinion, he truly is the best photographer in Louisville.

I can't express how great our experience was with Josh and Bella Grace. Josh is the consummate professional. He went over and above the call of duty for our wedding. His calm and collective personality was a real blessing to me especially when it came to getting ready for the big event. He knew the schedule better than the wedding planner and did more than she did to keep everything on time and moving smoothly. Everything he did to make the wedding day run well was just a bonus to the quality of his photos. He took a ton of photos on digital and film and we couldn't be happier. Josh's vision for photography is unparalleled by any other photographer I've seen. He is the whole package and I couldn't envision our wedding day running quite as smooth without him. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer without hesitation.

I heard about Bella Grace Studios through one of my friends and ever since then, I've been admiring Josh's work. I had referred him to many of my friends who were getting married before me, so it was a no-brainer when it came time to plan my own wedding!
The day of the wedding Josh showed up super early to go scope out some areas in Cincinnati for our bridal party to get pictures taken. He decided on Ault Park which was less than five minutes from our venue and church. He was FANTASTIC. He used both film and digital, which I loved. Film is so beautiful---it's like a lost art, so I was ecstatic when he said he was going to use film for a lot of our pictures.
He stayed at the reception way later than I expected him to, but I am so glad that he did-- he filmed some of the greatest pictures I've ever seen!! I never told him ahead of time what shots we wanted nor did we give him any specifics, but after looking through our photos, I realized I didn't need to- Josh read my mind.
My family and I chose to have a wedding planner, but honestly, we probably didn't even the day-of-coordinator there thanks to Josh. He knew what needed to be done and when. Not only could I count on him to take amazing pictures, but he also acted as another wedding planner. He stuck to our schedule and made sure everyone else did too!
About two weeks after our wedding, he sent a sneak peak, which he posted on his blog. And then about a month later, he sent us our photography link and then a few days later, our CDs arrived in the mail. Five CDs included thousands of film, edits, and originals. Josh beautifully captured our most favorite day to date and we will forever cherish our photos!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
