Elizabeth and Josh Glessner were absolutely outstanding to work with. I contacted and signed a contract with Glessner Photography 20 months prior to my wedding. I scheduled our Engagement Session a year prior to our wedding. I HIGHLY recommend an engagement session prior to your wedding. My fiance HATES having his picture taken, but Elizabeth made us feel completely at ease. It allowed her and us the opportunity to get to know one another's styles and allowed her to see how we would photograph prior to our wedding.

In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Elizabeth was super organized and made to sure to find out every detail she could in order to ensure our wedding day went off without a hitch. It was super important to me to have a photographer which could handle multiple personalities and opinions which Elizabeth did with grace and ease like only a true professional can do. Additionally, both she and Josh handled my "destination" wedding with ease despite having never seen the property until the day before my wedding.

Hiring Glessner Photography was one of the best decisions we made. Whether you need a local or destination photographer, I highly recommend Glessner Photography. You will not be disappointed.

I am an out-of-state bride and Elizabeth has been a joy to work with! It rained on the day of my bridal portraits, but Elizabeth was working with me on helping me find other locations starting a few days before the shoot and it went really well, I could not have been happier with how the portraits turned out! Elizabeth and Josh were an amazing team the day of our wedding: all the details and all the special moments were captured beautifully! They even had our photos showing on a digital frame during our reception--we were impressed!!! Elizabeth put our wedding album together and our story truly came through the photos, we just made minor changes. My husband and I highly recommend Elizabeth and Josh of Glessner Photography!!!

Elizabeth was professional from start to finish. Many of our guests remarked on how wonderful our photographer was, and our officiant even mentioned that she was an ideal photographer for a church wedding because of how respectful and unobtrusive she was. Before the ceremony, things went a little crazy--I wasn't ready on time, and the schedule got thrown off. But Elizabeth responded perfectly--taking the groomsmen's photos first and capturing the details of the day. After the ceremony, she managed to corral both sides of my incredibly large family into group photos, and she got great photos of the reception. She took beautiful outdoor photos of the two of us at our reception site, too. Our photographs are phenomenal memories of the most wonderful day of our lives, and we are so grateful to have had her there.

Glessner Photography was above all our favorite vendor. Photography was very important to me and we interviewed several groups before selecting. Throughout the interview, planning and day of event, Elizabeth was very calm, enthusiastic and professional. She has the combination of great taste and professional efficiency! I hope to work with her in the future.

Glessner Photography was another one of my favorite vendors to work with while planning my wedding this past spring. Elizabeth Glessner had great energy and creativeness that made every picture from my portraits, engagement photos and wedding just look effortless and flawless. My fiancé and I always felt comfortable in front of the camera making all of our pictures turn out ideal. I was always pleasantly surprised with the attention to detail from Elizabeth; from helping with my hair during photo shoots down to the special box she mailed the USB port of each photo session. Glessner Photography provides an amazing experience that you can't find with any other photographer!

Elizabeth and Josh were phenomenal to work with. Throughout our engagement Elizabeh sent us notes and tokens to keep us stress free and was so responsive to our texts and emails. We were beyond thrilled with our wedding day photos and our friends and family have raved about the photos and the creativity of this duo! Elizabeth has a great personality and even had wedding ceremony pictures on display at the reception. She even got on the floor and danced with us. You won't be disappointed with Glessner photography.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Glessner Photography are fantastic! I did one wedding with them and the photos were amazing. I had asked If I could use the photos to show off the hair and makeup I did for the wedding and they responded right away and I of course gave them credit for their work.Great business!

Josh and Elizabeth do an amazing job. Whenever I have worked with them, they were both present and that meant that not a single event went unnoticed, or un-photographed. They are always on top of things and catching all of those special moments that will eventually become treasured memories for the bride and groom as the years pass by. Of course, when I recommend a wedding professional, it has a lot to do with their skills, but even more to do with their personality and their dedication to their clients. I love working with them because they take the same personal interest in the couple's best interests that I do. They aren't just doing their job. They treat each couple as if they are close personal friends and want to capture every moment of their day for them. They are among those wedding professionals who make me proud to be a part of the industry. You can't go wrong with them.
