About

Welcome to Black Box Photography. We are a sister and brother-in-law team based in Northeast Ohio, who specialize in wedding photography.

“Memory is very important, the memory of each photo taken, flowing at the same speed as the event. During the work, you have to be sure that you haven’t left any holes, that you’ve captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late.” Henri Cartier-Bresson

We have a love for storytelling and providing memories that you will cherish. Our goal is simply to provide you with great pictures that your family will enjoy forever

10 star review!

Marianne is the epitome of what a professional, talented, classy, accountable photographer/wedding vendor should be! She was my saving grace and calming presence on my wedding day and was the only vendor that I never doubted, had to double check, or let me down in any way! She delivers in every way and working with her was a privilege! Not to mention her photos are PHENOMENAL! A true class act, I would recommend her to every bride! Thank you!!

AMAZING! Black Box Photography is simply AMAZING! We could not have chosen a better photographer & videographer. From the moment we met Marianne, she was such a sweetheart, full of energy. She responds within minutes to questions and has many amazing suggestions. My husband and I, along with our parents, bridal party and guests still talk about how much they enjoyed Marianne and Scott's personalities throughout the ENTIRE day. Their unique creativity made for special photos and videos that we can cherish forever. The pictures and videos arrived to us very quickly! We can not wait to use them again in the future! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Marianne is extraordinary at photography. She takes her time and the photos come out beautifully. Her partner, Levi is good at getting different kind of pictures going as far as laying on the damp ground to get the best angle. Black Box Photography is professional and very responsive. I would definitely recommend them for beautiful wedding photos!

Marianne was an absolute dream to work with! She made us both so comfortable and took the most beautiful pics for both our engagement and our wedding. Multiple friends and family have reached out to compliment our photos. We also loved the wedding video they personalized and created for us. She is professional, sweet, and thoughtful. Cannot recommend her or her work highly enough. By far our favorite vendor to work with!!

We absolutely LOVE Marianne. She did such a great job on our engagement and wedding photos. She was super supportive on our big day and managed to get amazing photos of us and our family and friends despite the rain.

Highly recommend!!!! Extremely flexible and understanding. Marianne and Scott are two wonderful people. I met Marianne at The Dress in Medina for an event they were having. I had interviewed several photographers before speaking with her. She has this warm and welcoming presence that made me feel so comfortable with her. She gave me information for her services before I left. As soon as I went home I told my fiance, "We have to have her, she is perfect!". After several emails, Marianne worked with us to create a package that we could afford and was everything that we wanted. She did a complementary engagement session that we absolutely loved! The day of the wedding she was the calm, focused presence that I needed. Her second photographer Scott was amazing as well. They work extremely well together. Our pictures turned out beautifully and we couldn't be more happy with the services provided to us by Black Box Photography. Thank you both for making our wedding perfect!!!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart Black Box Photography for capturing the romance and love of our wedding day. We did our engagement session with Black Box Photography a year before our wedding and from that moment knew we were in wonderful hands. Marianne treats you like an old friend you have known for years. She is so laid back and so emotionally connected to you as a client. It really shows that she loves what she does. She and Levi are the best photographers I have ever experienced in the industry. I am a bridal designer and seamstress at All Brides Beautiful in Hudson and I recommend Black Box Photography to every happy bride. We are obsessed with our photographs from our wedding. We have an overabundance of quantity. Marianne and Levi captured the essence of our wedding day and we relive it again and again every time we look at our photos. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience! We will cherish our photos our whole lives.

Marianne is exactly the kind of person you want tirelessly snapping photos of you on one of the most stressful days of your life. She will make you feel comfortable with her great sense of humor and awesome laugh.

It's easy to see from the photos on her website and Facebook page that she has the technical skills required to take great wedding photos. I was still nervous that somehow my fiancé and I would ruin the photos with our awkwardness but Marianne did not let that happen! The portraits are perfect and I will treasure them. She also captured the spirit of our wedding and made sure to take gorgeous photos of all the details I painstakingly DIY'd.

Marianne is very dedicated and I felt like she photographed our wedding as if it was her own. This is certainly not the last she will see of us - I wouldn't let anyone else take our family portraits from now on!

Thank you so much for capturing our special moments at our wedding. You did such an amazing job with everything. You knew how to talk to all the guest and the bridal party to make sure we stood where we should and smile when we should smile. There was so many details to our wedding you and didn't miss a thing! I appreciate how professional you were with dealing with me.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
